Start the service with "net start ssh_tunnel" or from the services applet. You may choose to use a batch file for srvany (instead of plink.exe ), but you won't be able to shut down the tunnel when you stop the service. Also, if the Windows SYSTEM user cannot see the host key for SSH connection, the tunnel cannot be established.

ProductivityPortfolio has an excellent explanation about Hibernate and Standby . To restate the key points: Standby Enters low power mode by cutting off items such as hard drive and monitor Computer is still running Data is stored in RAM for quick recovery You may lose data when power runs out Hibernate Computer is shutdown and is no longer consuming power Data is saved to hard disk Wake up is not as fast as from Standby, but may be faster than Power On. Additional Notes: Check the Power Options applet in the control panel to see if you can turn on Hibernate (in the following screenshot, Hibernate cannot be enabled since there's not enough disk space). To bring up the Hibernate option when shutting down, hold...

The easiest way to shutdown Windows XP with a shortcut is to create a shortcut icon on the desktop (or the Start menu, or the Quick Launch menu) and assign a shortcut key combination. Useful command line commands: Shutdown : shutdown -s -t 0 Restart : shutdown -r -t 0 Log off : shutdown -l -t 0 Hibernate : rundll32.exe PowrProf.dll, SetSuspendState Hibernate Command line options for shutdown : C:\> shutdown /? Usage: shutdown [-i | -l | -s ...

From http://hardware.slashdot.org/story/10/09/17/0247246/HDCP-Master-Key-Is-Legitimate-Blu-ray-Is-Cracked : MakeMKV rips most Blu-Rays very easily. If you want to re-encode with compression like x264, Handbrake will do it easily (though it takes about 6 hours at "20" quality on my i7 HTPC). The audio is a little tricky, but with MKVmerge you can just take the stream that MakeMKV gave you and mux it into the video stream Handbrake spat out. Subtitles are tougher because of the way they're done on Blu-Ray, but I find that opensubtitles.org usually has a perfectly-timed SRT file for my rips, most often from a guy called Shoocat. With newer codecs, the text is super-smooth and often looks better than the subtitles on the blu-ray. The only really hellacious problem I've had with moving my Blu-Ray...

There is a open source project named [ini4j] for processing Windows .ini configuration files. However, I found it an overkill for my purposes. So here is my simple implementation of a .ini parser. It mimics the standard java.util.Properties class with enhancements to get and set properties by section name. There are only a few simple rules: Leading and trailing spaces are trimmed from section names, property names and property values. Section names are enclosed between [ and ] . Properties following a section header belong to that section Properties defined before the appearance of any section headers are considered global properties and should be set and get with no section names. You can use either equal sign ( = ) or colon ( : )...

This registry key determines the number of bytes a sender may transmit without receiving an acknowledgment. If left unset, the default size is 8760 (2238 hex). For reliable networks, this size is almost always too small. I increased it to 65535 (FFFF hex) and my download speed for a big file increased from about 450Kbps to about 8Mbps! Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_... Note: This hack doesn't work for Windows Vista.
