Videograbber.net download limit

Ok for those of you that download videos, i use the site videograbber.net to download the video if i cant find a download for it, but theres a catch to this site you can only download 1 video without upgrading.
So heres the simplest way past that... and i mean the simplest trick in the book.


All you have to do is block cookies to videograbber.net and you can download as many as you want at a time.

BTW only reason im posting this here is because after i figured it out i googled it and could'nt find a site telling how to do it so heres the first.

HAVE A PROBLEM????

So I have decided to do personal requests for tutorials on how to fix problems with windows 8.
So if you have a problem with Windows 8 please post a comment here and txt me or call me 7047854527.

Wireless glitch

Ok so i have been having a problem with my wireless card for my laptop every so often it wont connect to any wireless networks and it when trying to find a network to connect to it says WIFI (OFF).
It took me a minute to figure out the cause of this problem, basicly windows update downloads new drivers and they are incompatible with the wireless card. All you have to do to fix this is uninstall the device and restart your computer.
INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 1: Open Control Panel

STEP 2: Open Device Manager

STEP 3: Click Network Adapters
STEP 4: Right click your wireless adapter
STEP 5: Click uninstall
STEP 6: Click OK
STEP 7: RESTART YOUR COMPUTER

Bugs in Windows 8

Okay so far i have only seen one problem and that has to do with Google Chrome for Windows 8.
The problem is that when running Google Chrome in Windows 8 mode (as an app) when you try to close it, it often reopens, but i have found a workaround for this bug. Whenever your wanting to close Google Chrome then go to the settings at the top right and click relaunch in desktop mode, then close the program.

More Features :)

Ok so Windows 7 was the first Windows OS to implement the ability to burn an iso file without installing any extra software, but Windows 8 is the Windows OS to have the ability to mount an iso file or vhd file without installing any extra software. Just Simply Right Click on the iso or vhd file and then click Mount.
It will mount the iso or vhd file as a new drive. For example i mounted Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City

Windows 8 Also has Native drivers for USB 3.0 ports without the need to install 3rd party drivers like you had to in Windows 7.

And now when using multiple monitors it stretches the task bar across both monitors.
It syncs your settings with any computer you have setup with the same windows live id.

Did i mention the fact that when your using an app you can share whatever it is your viewing using the shortcut key windows key + H  and then choose what you want to share it to. The more social apps you have installed the more you have the ability to share to.

Windows 7 or Windows 8?

So i was using windows 7 since the beta version was released on msdn, but when the windows 8 beta came out on msdn i had to check it out and although i thought they would never make a better windows OS than Win 7 i was wrong! Win 8 is definitely the better choice and if you don't believe me try it for your self download an iso from a torrent site and try it but always make sure when u download a windows os from a torrent its a trusted torrent uploader and it comes from msdn or has it in its name!!! But anyways i would like to point out some key factors in why 8 is better than 7.

  • 1st   7 doesn't run as smooth as 8 with a crappy graphics card even if you turn off the visual effects... why that is, is because windows 8 was built with something called Aerolite which later adapted to automatically detect which would run smoother on your computer.. and 7 only has Aero it doesn't have a lite version of it
  • 2nd   7 doesn't have full driver compatibility where-as 8 automatically installs a generic driver until  it can locate the driver specifically for that device and its generic drivers are great 
  • 3rd   7 had a problem with some wireless security methods with some wireless cards but in 8 everything seems to be fixed now
  • 4th   7 had a lot of security flaws that constantly had to be updated through windows update, and 8 is said to be the most secure OS yet and i am having trouble figuring out ways around it
  • 5th   7 wasn't built for touchscreens and it had little touchscreen functionality but 8 was built for both
  • there are plenty of other facts i could post about why Windows 8 is better than 7
BUT ANYWAYS WHETHER YOUR AN ADVANCED COMPUTER USER OR A BASIC USER WINDOWS 8 IS THE WAY TO GO!!!!

More Cool Features

So i figured i will add a few more features i find to be intriguing about windows 8!!!
The "play to" feature for videos, pictures, and music. It allows you to stream a certain video, picture, or song to your xbox without the need for third party software

The compatibility troubleshooter... guess what people its now fixed unlike in windows 7 where it didnt work correctly it now detects which version of windows it will run best in and allows programs/games to work in windows 8 that didnt work correctly in windows 7

The internet explorer app is pretty cool... i never really was much of a fan of the IE but now it seems to be pretty legit

The app store is awesome and constantly growing... although it will never be like androids app store because  each app has to under go microsoft tests, it still has alot of good apps

The Start menu built in Win 8 is not traditional but its a great step into future of technology which is going towards touch screen computing

The security features built in to prevent people from logging into your computer... one method is for touch screen users the ability to make a picture you have to draw each time you login instead of a password, another is the fact that your windows live id can be directly linked to your windows 8 computer, which can prevent people from stealing your xbox live account or hotmail account if you have one

The fact alone that it has a desktop mode and an app mode is what amazes me the most because it isnt really just one OS its basically 2 combined into 1 to coincide with each other
