Decrypt iTunes & WMA files

Here are great applications to decrypt your iTunes and WMA files.
Regardless of the legal issues, decrypting your music files saves you headaches on playing music on other portable music players.

For iTunes you need a decrypting software known as QTFairUse6. You can find it on Google and install it. Start iTunes and then run QTFairUse6. If you have problems decrypting files. I've noticed that if you close iTunes and re-open it again. Files will begin decrypting.
Link: QTFairUse6

For WMA you need a decrypting software known as FairUse4. You can find it on Google and install it. But you'll need a version of Windows Media player 9 or 10 for the program to work effectively. Windows Media 11 bypasses the decryption software.

Mobile Broadband Cards

If you currently have a laptop and searching for a broadband card. You'll have a difficult time guessing who has the best peak performance and perks.
If your a traveler, Cingular is the way to go. But for fast upload and download speeds in the U.S., Verizon should be your choice.
Besides the two year required service agreements, you have special rates if your a current subscriber or not. So make sure you read up on the broadband connect service costs. Cards for laptops will run you any where from $50.00 up to $100.00 and can have broadband limits. Verizon for example is changing it's unlimited plan name to limited because it prohibits file sharing.
I don't understand why buying a mobile broadband card should be so difficult.
Carriers should just keep everything standard and keep cost's across the board. What's the point on offering mobile broadband connections if you can't file share. File sharing is your business. I don't hear any complaints when someone goes over their plan minutes so why the sudden cap on mobile monthly limits.
But if you really want to be mobile. Mobile broadband cards are the way to go. I will just wait a little longer until the price drops and caps are removed so that mobile broadband can be my way of life.

Type in notepad :

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MenuOrder\Favorites]
