Wubi – An easy way to Linux
Wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users that will have you running Linux with just a couple clicks. Wubi allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu as any other application in Windows.
I tried installing it on my laptop (running Windows XP) and installation was completely painless:
Just put the wubi installer in the same directory as the Ubuntu ISO file and run the installer.
- Wubi adds another entry into your boot.ini (it doesn't use Grub or Lilo)
- There's NO formatting done, so your file-system remains the same & untouched.
- I couldn't get drivers working for my wireless card - but other than that, it worked really really well. Really frustrating. I could still connect to the internet through the LAN though.

Deepz0ne
I was browsing around UrbanDictionary.com and came across this:
"Deepz0ne is a very well known cracker. Read below for history:
Microsoft have been bust yet again.
They have been using a cracked version of Sound Forge to create files that are inside the Windows Tour folder.
These files have been made with Sound Forge 4.5 (The cracked version) first cracked by a cracker called "Deepz0ne".
Deepz0ne was one of the founders of the cracking group "Radium" and cracked the first ever Sound Forge 4.5, for illegal, pirate use. It seems that Microsoft have got the pirate copy, and just made the files on that.
How do I [find] this you ask? Do the following:
- Click "My Computer"
- Double click the C:/ Drive (Local Disk)
- Double click the "WINDOWS" folder
- Double click the "Help" folder Double click the "Tours" folder
- Double click the "WindowsMediaPlayer folder
- Double click the "Audio" folder, then the wav directory
[or simply -> C:\WINDOWS\Help\Tours\WindowsMediaPlayer\Audio\Wav]
You will then be presented with WAV files. Right click any one of these, and open it with NotePad [or a hex-editor].
Scroll right to the bottom and you should see [something like] this: "2000-04-06 IENG Deepz0ne ISFT Sound Forge 4.5" The first 4 digits may alter, but everything else stays the same. As you can clearly see, Deepz0ne's cracked SoundForge was used to create these files"
