When I do a deployment or try to "unlink" a project directory from SVN, I need to remove all ".svn" folders. I know we can use Windows Search to find all folders call ".svn" or run a few lines of command in Linux. But that is not enough easy. I found a tool calls SVN-Cleaner. You just need to right click the folder you want to delete its ".svn" folders and select "Remove all .svn" in the window context menu. Then Job Done! That's easy!

This afternoon, I help my friend to fix your computer. The symptoms are no network access from internet explorer and MSN. Moreover, there is a window pop up at the startup, saying something like "mseret.dll cannot find module"(I can't remember the exact name of dll name and details of the error message). The solution is simple. We used AVG to a full system scan and removed all infected files. I found there are a number of virus in the computer. Moreover, I found the reason of no network access from internet explorer and MSN. Because the virus changed the internet connections to use an internal proxy. What I did, I went to IE->Tools->Internet Options->Connections->Local Area Network Settings->Unchecked the proxy settings. I think the virus tried to setup a proxy and force all internet connections to use that. But that computer has AVG and AVG killed the process. Thus, it makes no internet access all at all in IE and MSN. Finally, I ran regedit and search the name of dll in the error message. Then I deleted that registry to run that dll. So far, that sounds every thing is running fine now.

In Windows, there is not a good partition manager. Yes, you can buy some third parties software. But there is a free alternative choice, GParted. GParted is the partition manager for Linux. But it have a LiveCD ISO. So, you can boot your computer with the LiveCD and resize your partition.

I have installed an Atahuapla Theme version 3.2, in my wordpress blog. I found the google map in my blog is not working well. The map image is not showing. The problem is so easy to slove. I updated it to the latest version 3.4.4 and disabled the inline Google map plug-in. That works fine. I will use this, because that looks tidy. Moreover, I can add my own image as the header!

I found out the work around for Single Origin Policy for cross sites client scripts and AppEngine. But that is not very good. That is not a pure client side solution. The client scripts need to request a PHP (or scripting files) in the same server as a proxy. That PHP script will forward the requests to AppEngine and get the responses back to the client scripts.
