Sometimes some of your friends who appear offline in yahoo messenger may
not be actually offline, they may in the 'Invisible' mode. This maybe if
they are trying to ignore you or are too busy to talk to anyone.

There is this small trick that you can use to find out what the truth is.


Firstly open your yahoo messenger main window and double click on the name
of the person whom you want to check. The chat window will open obviously.

Click IMVironment button, select See all IMVironments, select Yahoo! Tools
or Interactive Fun, and click on Doodle.

After loading the Doodle imvironment there can be two possibilities



1.If the user is offline Doodle are will show this "waiting for your
friend to load Doodle" continuously .See in the picture below:

2. If the user is online (but
in invisible mode), after few seconds (it can take up to one minute,
depending on your connection speed), you should get a blank page like in
the picture below. So you know that the user is online.

As more and more people get quick connections to the internet, such as
cable or ADSL, it becomes apparent to the user of a simple dial-up modem
that the World Wide Web can quickly turn into the World Wide Wait. Here a
trick that can help speed up your current modem without shelling out the
big bucks.

   

There is a setting located in your windows registry called the Maximum
Transfer Unit (MTU). This determines the size of the packets of data sent
between your and your server. In Windows 95, this setting is has a value
of 1,500 bytes when the actual size of internet packets is 1,000 bytes.
This can sometimes slow things down. To remedy the situation, simply
follow these steps:

In the registry editor (Start > Run > regedit.exe), navigate to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Class\NetTrans.

In the NetTrans folder you
should find another folder named "000x" in which x represents a fourth
digit. Right-click on the "000x" folder and select New and StringValue.
Rename the item that appears in the panel on the right side to MaxMTU,
then double-click it to bring up the Edit String box and give it a velue
of 1002.

 

Remember to keep playing with the MaxMTU value until you feel that your
internet connection has greatly sped up. Some people report huge speed
gains using this tricks, while others hardly notice a difference. In any
case, it's definetly worth a try.

Microsoft reserves 20% of your available bandwidth for their own purposes
like Windows Updates and interrogating your PC etc



You can get it back:

Click Start then Run and type "gpedit.msc" without quotes. This
opens the group policy editor.
Then go to:

--> Local Computer Policy

--> Computer Configuration

--> Administrative Templates
--> Network
--> QOS Packet Scheduler
--> Limit Reservable
Bandwidth.

 

Double click on Limit Reservable bandwidth.
 It will say it is not
configured, but the truth is under the 'Explain' tab i.e." By default, the
Packet Scheduler limits the system to 20 percent of the bandwidth of a
connection, but you can use this setting to override the default."

So the trick is to ENABLE reservable bandwidth, then set it to
ZERO. This will allow the system to reserve nothing, rather than the
default 20%.It works on Win 2000 as well.
