Favicons are the best way to identify or find the website / blog you are searching for from a huge list of bookmarks. But for those websites which do not have any separate Favicon, here is a simple way to create or generate missing favicons for websites automatically. Previously we discussed about Favicon Generator – Create or Edit your own Favicon
IdentFavIcon is based on the idea of Don Park called identicon to generate visually pleasing and easily recognizable icons from identifiers, such as IP addresses. This extension replaces the default favicon for web pages without one with a visually pleasing identicon, which is unique for each domain. The extension uses the CRC-32 code of the web page's domain name to seed the identicon renderer.
You can create icons yourself for websites without separate Favicons. However, you need a suitable image file and a browser add-on for that, using which the Favicons can be edited individually. If you cannot decide on one particular picture, you can deal with this task automatically with the free add-on, ‘IdentFavIcon’.
This tool generates unique kaleidoscopic Favicons for the domain using the IP address of the respective site; these simplify the process of re-finding the websites. This tool does not have a configuration site for separate settings. It performs its tasks automatically, as soon as you open a website without a Favicon.
All the generated Favicons are stored in the ‘bookmarks.html’ bookmark file like specified by the conventional websites. The ‘Reload Page Favicon’ context command is available for updating so that you can replace the generated picture, if required, by the newly created Favicon, which the site had created in meanwhile, on a reworked website.
Note: The future versions of this add-on may not have these many steps as the programmer of the tool is planning a single-click function in the next version, which is said to carry out all the steps in one go.

CMOS Checksum Bad Errors
Causes of CMOS Checksum Bad Errors
There are 3 main reasons that cause a CMOS Checksum Bad Error:
• CMOS Battery malfunctioning
• Your BIOS has been updated (possibly a virus)
• The computer was shut down improperly (MS
Windows requires you to shut down your computer before shutting off the power).
Here are some remedies for each situation:
CMOS Battery Not Functioning Properly: If your CMOS battery is not functioning properly change it. Go into your CMOS and write down all of the settings. If you loose them you can also get them from your computer manufacturer. Locate the battery and remove it (consult your computers manual or tech support). Once you have your new battery, you can replace it and reenter your CMOS settings.
Your BIOS has Been Updated: Your CMOS settings may have become reset. Make sure that the values entered in the BIOS are correct and reset them to the default settings. Run a virus scan and make sure that the BIOS settings are back to the default.
The Computer Was Shut Down Improperly: Running MS Windows, if you shut down your laptop or desktop without shutting down your operating system first, it will corrupt the CMOS settings and cause the CMOS Checksum Bad Error.
Avoid this error by completely shutting down your computer before turning off the power.

Proxy server Collection
LIST OF PROXY SERVER A web proxy is becoming more and more important in today's internet. Schools and Companys tend to block sites pretty quickly nowadays.It is especially irritating when the ban is directed towards just a few websites and not every website in that category. A Web Proxy might be able to sneak past this policies and display the site in your browser even though it is banned in the network. How does a web proxy work ? A network bans a website either by its IP, its name or part of its name. A web proxy makes only shows its own address to the network and not the actual destination of the user. The admin of the network will think everything is fine and you are free to reach the site that is banned. The only thing that might happen is that the admin is banning the web proxy as well, but this is not a big deal either. Hundreds of web proxys exist, just switch to a new one and you are ready to visit the banned site again. Let us assume that all proxy websites have been banned in your network, you can´t find a single web proxy that is still working. Your best choice is to create your own web proxy at an address that only you know. All you need is the php web proxy proxy and some webspace with php to upload it to. Search google for free webspace php and you should find some hosts that allow you to use php and upload your web proxy to them. You can alternativly use a cgi web proxy which needs a webspace with cgi enabled. Web Proxy List: Please not that the list does not display if the webproxy is able to handle scripts, I did not find a reliable way to make a test for all languages out there, therefor this has not been added to the list. I also removed websites that loaded slowly, displayed errors or forced you to click on an ad before you could use the service. It is most likely that the name "proxy" might have been banned as well, try using web proxys that do not have proxy i their url, this might help.
Setup your own Web Proxy:
