Use registry shortcuts to disable and enable screensavers in Win XP: 07 June 2012

Use registry shortcuts to disable and enable screensavers in Win XP:


The steps in this tip will show you how to edit the registry for a time-saving shortcut for enabling and disabling your screensaver.

When you perform maintenance operations such as defragmenting or backing up the hard disk, you probably disable your screensaver before you begin to prevent it from interfering with the maintenance operation. However, disabling your screensaver manually is a multi step operation that involves accessing the Display Properties dialog box, navigating to the Screen Saver tab, and setting the screen saver to None. Then, you need to re-enable the screen saver after you complete the maintenance operation.
Fortunately, you can automate the disabling and enabling screen saver procedures with a couple of registry shortcuts. Note: Editing the registry is risky, so make sure you have a verified backup before making any changes.
Here's how.

1. Launch Notepad and type the following four lines. (Note: The second line must be blank.)

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]
"ScreenSaveActive"="0"
2. Save the file to your desktop with the name Disable Screen Saver.reg.
3. Change the 0 to a 1 in the fourth line.
4. Save the file to your desktop with the name Enable Screen Saver.reg.

Now, when you need to disable the screen saver, just double-click the Disable Screen Saver.reg shortcut. To enable the screen saver, double-click the Enable Screen Saver.reg shortcut.

When you run either of these files, the Registry Editor will display two confirmation prompts—one before making the change and one after making the change.

Be cautious while quashing FIRs: HC

New Delhi, June 8, 2012(HT): Delhi High Court in a significant ruling has said that FIRs in certain criminal cases cannot be quashed immediately even if parties arrive at an out-of-court compromise. 

The court said it needs to be looked into if the decision would affect the peace and tranquillity in a particular locality. Justice ML Mehta said discretion must be exercised while compounding (allowing out of court settlement) offences which are a menace to residents of a particular area and embolden the “bad characters” there.

“Crimes are offences against the society. Its repercussions are inflicted upon every person who is a part of a civilised society. A settlement arrived between two parties in a criminal offence cannot become the touchstone for arriving at the decision of quashing the proceedings in such cases,” Justice Mehta said.

A FIR quashing a plea was filed by two “bad characters” in Najafgarh area after they arrived at a settlement with the victim. They were charged under Sections 323 (voluntarily causing hurt), 336 (act endangering human life) and 452(house trespass) of the Indian Penal Code filed by a property dealer Kanhiya Lal on May 5, 2012.

Lal alleged the two along with another person, while they were drunk, came to his office and entered into an altercation with him. One of them fired at a TV set, damaging it, while the other hit his head with a beer bottle and assaulted him. Dismissing the plea to quash the FIR, the court considered various factors.

The offence, it said, was serious in nature. The victim had done nothing to provoke them. The attack was not in self-defence or in the heat of the moment. The petitioner was the “bad character” of the area and feared by the people of the locality because of criminal antecedents. There are admittedly as many as eight FIRs lodged against him, including murder.
