  • FREE 1 Year RapidShare Premium Account Contest • Raymond.CC

    As I’ve promised, I’ll be giving out a free 1 year RapidShare Premium account worth EUR$54.99 when Raymond.CC Blog turns 2 years old.
    FREE 1 year RapidShare Premium
    After a little thinking, I’ve decided to change my mind. Don’t worry, I am still giving out the free 1 year RapidShare Premium account except there is a small requirement for you to be in the winner’s list.

    Other than the previous requirement of subscribing Raymond.CC’s Blog, there is one more thing you need to do which is:
    1. Use the email that you subscribed to Raymond.CC Blog and email to:
    [ Contest Ended. Here is the WINNER ]
    2. With the Subject: RapidShare

    That’s all!

    This is for you to tell me that you’re participating in the lucky draw. The reason I am doing this is because I still remembered the previous time when I gave away the 1 year RapidShare Premium account away, I had to randomly select the winner 3 times because the first two lucky winner didn’t claim the prize. It’s better because the lists will get smaller and the chances to get picked is higher. Also, the person who wants to win RapidShare Premium account will appreciate the prize more because he/she already knows the benefit of it.

    ONE WEEK will be given for you to email me. I will announce the lucky winner on the 11th October 2007. Good luck everyone!

    As for the other prize which I haven’t reveal, all I can say is… SOON!

    NOTE: STOP sending me email more than ONCE! It will NOT increase your chance in winning but only lowering your chance because I consider that as CHEATING!

    Note 2: I’ve also noticed that some of you even use different email address to increase your chance in winning. I’ve already identified a few person doing that and I also consider that as CHEATING!

  • Status of Raymond.CC Tech Blog Site

    First I would like to apologize for not explaining or informing why was I out of action for nearly a month (again). Long story short, in the month of March, both Google and Chitika disabled ad serving to my blog site because they accused that my site is a hack/crack site. I was unsuccessful in getting my account reinstated and was pretty upset and disappointed about it. I started this blog site 5 years ago to help people, to share what I’ve learned and I still have the same motive even after 5 years has passed. When my site was being labeled as a hacking website, I really had no motivation to continue in updating this site nor continue with the X-Ray release.

    When I could not use Adsense, I can only go with TribalFusion which explains the annoying popups that some of you are getting. I hope you would understand that I had no choice and TribalFusion is the only better paying advertising company compared to others (Bidvertiser, Adbrite) that could cover the cost of the expensive monthly dedicated server rental and administration fees.

    I have done so many tests and written reviews on security applications and antivirus, how to manually remove viruses, fixing/restoring the damages that virus has done, even the upcoming X-Ray project is also a security software, I honestly find it hard to believe that these big companies labels my website a hack site.


    Thankfully one of very helpful Google employee named Melissa has helped me to contact the Google Policy team and have them to review my site again. After 2 weeks, the ban on Adsense was lifted but Chitika still remains the same.

    If you haven’t noticed, the article posted yesterday was written by Paul, a talented 20 year old guy from Canada that goes by the nickname of HellNoire in forum. Don’t let the nickname scare you because he is very helpful, dedicating a lot of his time in helping people with computer problems in forum and also moderating it whenever I am away. In fact his number of post in forum is even catching up on mine. Seeing him that he has so much passion for computers especially Linux, I have invited him to share with you all on his experience with computers.

    Other than that, I’ve also finally upgraded the forum to the latest vBulletin 4. Some tweaks has been done on the blog theme to reduce the amount of database calls and updated the ad codes for Google Analytics and BuySellAds to use asynchronous code so that the website loads faster.

    During my time away from updating this blog, I have received numerous emails and comments asking if everything is all right. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for your continuous support and care. I WILL be back in full swing starting next week.

  • Happy Chinese New Year 2009

    Sorry for the lack of updates these past few days. I am back in my hometown located at another state in Malaysia (which is NOT China), helping my mum to clean up the house to prepare for Chinese New Year. It’s the first day of Chinese New Year today and I wish everyone a Happy Chinese New Year and may the year of the Ox brings you good health, prosperity, success and many happy returns.

    Happy Chinese New Year 2009

    I will try to post in the next few days if the Internet connection isn’t so painfully slow. If not, do hang in with me because I have some really interesting projects, topics and tutorials to share with you all.

    If you check the sidebar category, you’ll see a FengShui section which I never update because am too busy with computer topics. For those who practice FengShui or wants to know more about it, the only person I consult is Jeannie because she’s an expert in BaZi plus honest and doesn’t simply ask people to buy FengShui products/ornaments. Jeannie has two sites, FengShui Heritage for FS advices, tips, etc and Forum for people to post questions or comments on any Feng Shui Techniques related subjects.

    Want to know what projects has been most downloaded at SourceForge? I got quite a shock when I had a look at SourceForge.net’s All-Time top downloads to see what files are most downloaded by people. Even the past 7 days are not much different that then all-time top downloads.


    The shocking thing is that six file-sharing applications is occupying the first six places in SourceForge’s All-Time Top Downloads! They are eMule, Azureus, Ares Galaxy, BitTorrent, DC++, and Shareaza.
    SourceForge All Time Top Downloads

    Not much difference either on the past 7 top downloads. Although file-sharing applications did not occupy the first six places like the all-time top downloads, but there are 5 file-sharing applications in top 10.

    Now we know what people download most and what they want.
