Have you ever noticed that when you’re not using your computer or even not “intensively” using it, it seems like your hard drive is really busy as though it is searching for something? The hard disk drive LED will start flashing and sometimes you can even hear that the hard drive is grinding. Funny thing is this can still happen even if you have closed all running programs. If you’re using laptop, it’s even worse because the fan will start spinning like mad when the hard drive is working hard and this will shorten the battery life!
Most of the time the culprit that causes your hard drive to work are anti-virus software, anti-spyware software, instant messenger programs (IM), and Microsoft’s own indexing service. It’s OK if a legitimate program is making your hard drive to work but you’ll never know if a hacker is doing a search on your hard drive looking for confidential stuff! Unfortunately, Microsoft didn’t include a tool to diagnose and check what program is secretly accessing your hard drive. The built-in Windows Task Manager doesn’t show you anything at all other than CPU and Memory Usage. So I am going to show you how to find out what process is busy reading and writing your hard drive when you’re not causing it.

I received many emails from my uncle (most of them being funny). But this one captures my attention most. How rotten and cruel mankind can be!
Forget about the origin of the video (I don’t know so don’t ask), but look at how she was beaten! A huge crowd took the matters in their own hands. She was beaten to pulp (not literally). And the last part of the scene is somewhat tragic. They dropped a rock on the poor girl’s head. She bled and her blood covered the floor
So what if she steals? Does she deserved to be punished that way? Mother fuckers
NO ONE PROTECTED HER! WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU WITNESSED IT?
ps: this entry spoiled my weekend, DAMN
pss: Everyone is subjected to the law, even the PM!
psss: Minah ragut = female snatch thief
pssss: YouTube removed the video, darn :mad:

I am looking for ( 1 ) Little Birds and ( 2 ) a Research Assistant to help me in my duty as a Member of Parliament.
For the post of Research Assistant, the candidate could be a financial analyst or a journalist at the business desk, strong in English and have a penchant for poring volumes of documents and outputting concise executive summaries. It is a job on flexi-hours, working from remote stations using the Internet, and the candidate will be salaried using part of my MP allowance.
Specifically, I am looking for a person who will help me research on
You may contact me at my email exclusive for my parliamentary work at jelutong AT jeffooi.com.
The Parliament sits from April 28, 2008.
NOTE: I am slowly phasing out the old mobile number 019-3761397. It has been swarmed with over 500 SMSes and hundreds more missed calls, which HAD accumulated since the campaign period and I had no time to read... though Nokia N95 has the capacity to store such huge volume of data on the handset.

In the aftermath of unprecedented and humiliating defeats in five states and the Federal Territory, will Umno resort to fascism to revive?
That's the concern of author and researcher Dr Ooi Kee Beng at the launching of his new book entitled 'Lost in Transition: Malaysia under Abdullah' in Kuala Lumpur yesterday. Quote:
"Umno is like (Taiwan's) Kuomintang (KMT) and other parties in the region who were responsible for independence and a lot of these parties had to reform itself like the KMT - a once dictatorial party is a totally a new party today with the same name."It is not given that if Umno reforms itself, it would reform like how KMT did - meaning liberalise and play the democratic game. Fascism is always close at hand.
"We don't want that to be encouraged. We should work to not crush Umno but help it along in its reforming process," he told the audience.
Kee Beng is a fellow at the Institute of South East Asian studies in Singapore.
The book is a compilation of articles he wrote on Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi's governance in the last two year. It is a follow up to his 2006 book, 'Era of Transition: Malaysia After Mahathir', which analysed Umno and tests faced by Abdullah after taking over his predecessor Dr Mahathir Mohamad.
FASCIST. Look out for potential fascists here, and while the Abdullah Administration is attempting to prosecute non-Muslims for khalwat, lawyer/blogger Malik Imtiaz Sarwar has a piece: A test for the Reform Cabinet.

Next week, I am going to have my vacation at TWO different places: Cameron Highland and Kota Kinabalu of Sabah. What a busy but happy week!
Before that, I am going to Kuala Lumpur today. I will stay overnight at my brother’s place. We will have dinner together and watch the Japanese movie “L”. Then, I go to Cameron Highland with my friend tomorrow morning.

It has been many years since the last time I went to Cameron Highland. In my memory, it is a beautiful and relaxing place. I always prefer Cameron Highland over Genting Highlands.
I will spend 3 days 2 nights at Cameron Highland to enjoy the beautiful nature and the fresh vegetables and fruits. Oh, and the tea too!
I will be back to KL at April 8, 2008 (Tuesday) from Cameron Highland, then fly to Kota Kinabalu(KK) at April 10, 2008. We had planned this tour for months. It is the trip of the year among us, the ex-collegemates. Last year, we went to Langkawi. 17 of us are all excitingly looking forward to the coming tour!
“Sabah Insight Pocket Guide (Insight Pocket Guides)”
It is a 5 days 4 nights tour. We will have a local guide there and stay in apartments.
We will first visit a friend who is infected by Acute Leukemia recently. Yeah, that’s sad but he has our full support. He has a blog at http://kvsrestjourney.blogspot.com/
Some activities of the KK tour are: Kinabalu National Park, Padas River white water rafting, and Tunku Abdul Rahman Park (island), but not climbing Mount Kinabalu. Water rafting might be a challenge for me because I don’t swim!
“Wow!” was the first impression of my every friend who knew about my DOUBLE tours in a week.
I guess this is going to be my longest tour of the year. The KK tour is the yearly plan of our ex-collegemates, while the Cameron Highland trip was a sudden decision. But I am sure I will enjoy both very much!
I am not bringing my laptop for the tour (I want Asus EeePC!) but I will try my best to update about my tour using Twitter and Flickr.

I wrote in passing on March 15 that Maxis' Huawei-powered wireless broadband didn't give me the HSDPA speed. I noted that, de facto running at UMTS via Network 50212 particularly on March 12 and 13, the service couldn't move the packets at my office which is located on the 28th floor of Komtar, Penang. In desperation, I bought a Celcom/Vodafone version of the same 3.6Mbps application, and the packets did fly!
To my surprise, Maxis folks did read my blog and sent their engineers -- within a week of my blog -- to take the reading of throughput in my office, not once but thrice!
That was because I said reading throughput is like taking readings of blood pressure, once is never accurate. So the guys came back -- with the second and the third time armed with a product of their rival, a Celcom/Vodafone Huawei unit.
The insult is that performance of Celcom/Vodafone tanked at the material time Maxis engineers took comparative readings in my office, in front of my own eyes. Thus far, I have gone back to Maxis and two-time Celcom on on redundancy basis.
And surprisingly again, on the quiet, Maxis has started pumped up to HSDPA in Komtar and Burmah Road areas in Penang last Sunday, though the service was intermittent the whole last week and back to normal now.
I am obligated to give Maxis credit when credit is due.
