Identify "FAKE ACCOUNTS" on FACEBOOK Using Google Images.



Now a days, Facebook accounts are rapidly increasing on Facebook and the only reason for that some people will try to dupe Facebook users for reasons of their own, from having a bit of fun, to duping for its own sake, right through to grooming people online or seeking to behave fraudulently. For your own sake, knowing how to spot a fake Facebook account is an important part of keeping safe online and remaining distant from people you don't know.


So, the question arise "How to Identify that Fake Facebook Account ??


Here's the solution anyone can detect the Facebook fake account just by following these simple steps.


Log in to your Facebook account and visit the profile you want to detect for fake.


Click on the profile picture and copy the image link (By right clicking and selecting "copy image URL").



Now continue by visiting Google Images.


The screen will be displayed as shown below.


Now click on the symbol shown in the screenshot:

And paste the image URL (selecting "Paste Image URL"). And Enter.


If the results displayed about that image with many links and images(shown below) than its a fake account. 



HOW TO AVOID FAKE ACCOUNTS ON FACEBOOK : 

1. Look for photos in the profile.If there is only one photo of the individual in the whole profile it makes it quite clear that the account is fake.


2. Look for status updates,wall posts and comments.If the user hasn’t updated a status for quite a long time and hasn’t been involved in any wall posting or commenting of other statuses,it means that the profile is likely to be fake.


3. Look at the recent activities.If it is that the user has just been adding randomers and making new friends,and that there are no pages liked or groups joined,it suggests that the user is determined in jst adding people and hence the profile is fake.


4. Check out the friend list.If found that maximum of the friends are of the opposite gender,it can be assumed that the profile is used either for fun or for random dating.
5. Check the info.If found that there is no ideal links given regarding school or education institutions or workplace and that the user is looking for dating and interested in both men and women,it shows signs of fakeness.
6. Check the birthdate.Birth dates like 1/1/XX…..or……31/12/XX are common between fake accounts as it is quite unique and easy to type in.
7. Fake profiles of girls usually have a contact no. in their info. Lets face it,girls harldy will have their contact no. in public.So watch out if the user exposes info that is unlikely for general users to unveil in public.
8. Look out for recent wall posts, if u see loads of people asking…’THANKS FOR THE ADD….DO I KNOW YOU’……and yet the posts remains unanswered…it is bound to be a fake one.
9. Look for common tarits used in Facebook,like.using applications such as farmville,pet society etc….and adding siblings.If these traits are not found among the user, the profile is highly inactive or fake.This point can’t single handedly prove the fakeness,however this will be a supporting clue along with other points.
10. If you are quite certain about the profile’s fakeness,and want to be absolutely sure, try browsing google for some random profile pictues. Fake profile pictures are usually selected frm google and while browsing through it,you might as well come upon the picture the user chose for the fake account. 


So that's it, if have any problem feel free to inform in comments.


PLEASE COMMENT ON THE POST IF YOU LIKED IT.

How to Reduce Windows Startup Time

How to Reduce Windows Startup Time

Most Windows users follow the same routine every day—they push the power button ontheir computer and head off to make a cup of coffee. If that’s as long as it takes to boot up your system and all of your programs, then something’s not right.

What causes boot delays?

Some of the programs you install assume that you’re using them on a daily basis and as a result, they automatically load every time you start Windows. In 9 out of 10 cases, these programs never ask if you would like to run them all of the time. Finding the switch to turn this so-called “startup program” off is hard and often forces the user to dig deep into submenus of the particular program.

Over the course of a typical computer’s lifespan, an average of 25 to 35 programs automatically starts after you log on to the system. Some of these are actually pretty important and should never be disabled, for example, an antivirus scanner or a third-party firewall. Others, like Windows Live Messenger or Skype, are pretty convenient. However, most of the time you don’t need half of these programs popping up and causing your computer to take forever to start. Here are two tools to deal with slow boot-up performance, one for the absolute Windows guru who wants to know and modify every nuance of the boot process. The other is for professionals and beginners alike, it tells you everything you need to know about startup programs and lets you disable unwanted programs.


Day 1: Windows has just been installed, and less 
than a handful of programs are running automatically



Day 3: As users install their usual set of programs, more and more useless applications find their way into the notification area. Keep in mind: Not all of the startup programs are visible here; some of them are hidden. Imagine how this situation looks after a year of installing and using programs



Method 1: “Autoruns” by Mark Russinovich (Recommended for tech-savvy users)

Mark Russinovich probably knows the Windows kernel better than some of the original NT developers. In a smart move, Microsoft hired this Windows guru who developed “Autoruns” for Windows, which is now available in version 9 over at Microsoft TechNet.

Warning: This powerful piece of software simply lists every single file that Windows loads during the boot-up process, and even some of the more important kernel drivers within your system once you’ve logged on. If you’re a professional user and know what you are doing, this tool should prove interesting for you.
This is how it works:
1. Download “Autoruns”, and unzip the file “Autoruns.zip”. To run it, simply double-click on “Autoruns.exe”.



2. All startup objects are located under “Logon”. Make sure not to disable the entries “explorer.exe” and
    “userinit.exe”, since they are responsible for the logon process and your desktop. Vista and Windows 7
     users can find regularly run tasks, such as Apple software and Google Updates, under “Scheduled
     Tasks”. Again, this tip is only recommended for advanced users, and even they should create a system
     restore point at the very least.

3. If you can’t recognize an entry here, consult Google or Bing. You will instantly find yourself looking at a
    process database or a forum entry where the autorun entry in question is discussed.


Method 2: TuneUp StartUp Manager (Recommended for both home users and professionals)

If you’re a bit scared about the hundreds of possible entries you can disable with “Autoruns” for Windows, you will find yourself very satisfied with the TuneUp StartUp Manager featured within TuneUp Utilities —grab a free 15-day trial over athttp://www.tune-up.com/download. This tool is much more visual and only shows those programs that run automatically and are safe to disable. It’s excellent for home users and professionals alike. Here are some simple steps to get it working:

1. Download and install TuneUp Utilities. Go to “Increase Performance”, and select TuneUp StartUp
    Manager.

2. In the next window, you will find a list of all of the programs that are loaded at every Windows start:


3. TuneUp StartUp Manager is able to identify thousands of common and popular startup items, and tells
    you whether they are unnecessary, as in the example of Adobe Reader Quick Launch, or necessary, such
    as the Windows Defender. In the left hand pane, you will see a description for most startup programs,
    telling you exactly why it’s there and what it does. Even if TuneUp StartUp Manager is not able to find
    anything, there’s still the option of asking Google or Bing for advice!

Final thoughts
Depending on how many startup programs are automatically loaded by your system, you are able to decrease the boot-up time immensely. In addition, without unnecessary garbage running in the background, your computer will perform significantly better. So, if you’re an admin and you know what you’re doing, we recommend you go through each and every entry of “Autoruns” for Windows as outlined above. For everyone else, we recommend TuneUp StartUp Manager. Based on its feedback and descriptions, it’s just so easy to get rid of all of the unnecessary startup items and boost your PC’s performance.

  1. Shut Down your Android Device.
  2. Now we need to hold few buttons combination in order to get our device booted in, well every phone can have different combination so normally its Volume UP + Power button so try that else use below from popular devices.
    • Nexus 7 - Volume Up + Volume Down + Power
    • Samsung Galaxy S3 - Volume Up + Home + Power
    • Motorola Droid X - Home + Power
    • Now these were the popular phones I know, but you have any other phone and above combination is not working then you can Google your phone combination keys and you will get something for sure :)
  3. So now as soon as you see your phone's logo you can release the Power but you should keep holding the Volume Button till you get into the Recovery Mode.
    android-recovery-mode
  4. Now you will see some screen like above just navigate to wipe data/factory reset using volume keys and then press Power button to activate it.
    wipe-android-data-factory-reset
  5. Now you will get the Yes and No option (Google is creative in this isn't it) so slide down to that Yes -- delete all user data option and press that.
  6. Now it will wipe clean your device and will remove all the restrictions and now you can once again login to your OS. Well you can see below video tutorial too for easier access to your recovery mode.
