A man was in a bad accident and was injured. But the only permanent damage he suffered was the loss of both ears, which made him very self-conscious. However, he received a large sum of money from his insurance company.

It was always his dream to own his own business, so he went out and purchased a small, but expanding computer firm. But he realized that he had no business knowledge at all, so he decided that he would have to hire someone to run the business. He picked out three top candidates, and interviewed each of them. The last question of the interview was always the same.

“Do you notice anything unusual about me?” he asked the first candidate.

“Yes. You have no ears.”

He quickly eliminated the first candidate.

“Do you notice anything unusual about me?” he asked the second candidate.

“Yes. You have no ears.”

He quickly eliminated the second candidate.

“Do you notice anything unusual about me?” he asked the third candidate.

“Yes. You’re wearing contacts.”

Thinking he had found the man for the job he said, “That’s correct. How did you know?”

“You can’t wear glasses if you don’t have any freakin’ ears.”

I was looking on how to make my USB drive read only for various reasons… (1) I have a portable USB hard drive which contains tons (Gigabits) of files which I want to share with my friends, but I’m cautious of plugging it in their computer coz of the risk of viral infection; (2) I have my forensic/security tool on my portable thumb drive so I can virtually fix any infected/corrupted computer anywhere; (3) when I plug something on a USB port (from other computers), either a mobile phone or an mp3 player or a digital camera, I don’t want it to get infected by those blasted worms and trojans that are spreading around (I’m looking at you SSCVIHOST.exe and Funny UST scandal.avi.exe viruses).

There are a lot of freewares and softwares available on the Internet to secure and protect your USB drive, but I chose this method because it is much simple to do and it just fits my needs. So here is what you need to do…

1. On your computer (or someone else’s computer), run Registry Editor. You can do that by opening the Run box from your Start menu and typing regedit.
2. Now navigate to this path via the folder tree on the left panel.
   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control
3. Once there, create a new Key called StorageDevicePolicies. If it is already there, then just navigate inside it.
4. Now on the new key you’ve created, create a REG_DWORD value and name it WriteProtect.
5. Set it to 1 to make the USB drive you plugged in read-only.

You can toggle it to 0 (zero) to make it write-enable. Note that this works (tested?) only on Windows XP Service Pack 2 (or SP3).

Now if you are cautious on plugging in your USB device in your friends computer, then just do this method on their machine, provided that they are using Windows XP SP2. If their machine is already infected (or locked by an admin) and the Registry Editor doesn’t open, then follow step 3 on my post regarding removal of the SSCVIHOST.exe worm.

Oh and if you did this on another computer besides yours, remember to switch the value back to 0 (zero) so that it reverts to its default settings.

This hack is also good for locking USB drives in the workplace. Those who wants to prevent possible data theft from the office. Or just simply another security method to prevent the spread or worms and trojans.

And for simplicity sake… here are two files that will make it easier for you to change the values at the registry. Just right-click, and save file target as, to save the file on your computer.

USB-drive-read-only-off.reg
USB-drive-read-only-on.reg

These are just registry files, if you have doubts what this file will do to your registry, I recommend opening it on your notepad to see its contents.

To use it, just download, double click the file and hit Ok to merge it into your registry.

Too much time at work eh?

Ok, so yesterday my girlfriend and I watched The Incredible Hulk movie, which was great BTW. So there I was, waiting for the end of the movie expecting to see Tony Stark again. And yes he did appear and talked with the General about a group “they” are planning to organize… Remember if you’ve watched Iron Man, after the end credits, we saw Nick Fury was trying to recruit Iron Man into the Avengers Initiative. As a long time Marvel fan, a feeling of excitement went through my body.

Seeing crossovers like this on film gives you that excitement that sooner or later you will expect to see each one of your favorite heroes come together in the big screen.

Here is another one…

There are reports that the last scene was clipped from the movie…

At the end scene we see Bruce Banner walking through the plains and towards the snowy mountain. You won’t see him walking through the snow in the movie, but if you watched the trailer you will see it.

He was planning to commit suicide since he can’t find a cure to his condition. So as he was walking through the snow capped mountains, there he saw Captain America.

The details are fuzzy at this moment, but reports are saying that you can see the excluded clip when the DVD is released. Or just wait till someone uploads it to YouTube.

And Stan Lee was able to shoot the cameo. He appears as a hapless citizen who accidentally ingests a soft drink mixed with Bruce Banner’s blood, leading to the discovery of Dr. Banner’s location in a bottling plant in Brazil. [wiki]

Oh and remember Mr. Blue? Notice the gamma radiation exposure to his head? He is one of Hulk’s nemesis called The Leader. Due to the gamma, he became some sort of a super-genius.

It’s all coming together… by 2011
