For long term use, you can also add your blog into search directories to gain more traffic. They are not as useful as search engines but they are going to help in a way or two. They worked differently as search engines as search engines you normally type in a keyword then they will start to search but directory is something like a catergory of different interest and you can get your targeted audience when users are searching this system.
Anyway its free and you just have to spend a little more time to do this entry.
I have already added my site to all of the web directory, this process is boring that that also will bring many of others to you as well and its only a one time entry.
Enjoy and good traffic!

Microsoft has released WGA Notifications application which effectively turned Microsoft Windows operating system into a ‘nagware’, with a “This copy of Windows is not genuine” warning. What the Windows Genuine Advantage Notifications application does what it will check your Microsoft Windows XP validity. If it found that the copy of Windows XP is not validated, not genuine, counterfeit, unlicensed, pirated, illegal, unauthorised or simply failed the Windows Genuine Advantage validation process, then the notification messages will appear at various places and time.
When you log on to a non-genuine copy of Windows XP, the following notification error message “This copy of Windows is not genuine” will pop-up on the logon process:
And the nicely said “You may be a victim of software counterfeiting” message on the bottom right corner of log-in screen:
Microsoft allows Windows faithfuls to have 2 options: Get Genuine or Resolve Later. Click on Resolve Later will temporarily bypass the notification and let you login into and use Windows nagged with notification icon and messages, which will randomly appear as balloon notification message with an icon in the notification area (system tray).
Clicking on the balloon notification or the notification area icon will lead you to the Windows Genuine Advantage Validation Failure Web page that contains the specifics of the validation failure and the steps that you can take to make the operating system genuine.
To get rid of the WGA notifications that intends to remind you that your Windows is not validated, you can buy a validly licensed copy of genuine Microsoft Windows.
Update: Bypass WGA Validation with Crack or Hack and Disable WGA Notifications Warning Message Workarounds
Latest Version: 1.5.554.0 on October 2006 (distribute to some computers with no known roll-out pattern), 1.5.708.0 on September 2006 (distribute to whoever wants to download from Microsoft Download Center), 1.5.540.0 on 28th June 2006, 1.5.532.2 on 6th June 2006, 1.5.532.0 on 30th May 2006, 1.5.530.0 on 23rd May 2006, 1.5.526.0 on 26th April 2006.

"Have you ever facing Limited Or No Connectivity problem with your network?
or your network connection gets stuck "Acquiring IP Address"? Why is it happen and how to fix it?
Limited or No Connectivity is due to assigning problem between IP to your LAN Connection. By right, your IP should be assign with the 192.168.x.x but it assign an IP which in group 168.x.x.x . (you can check this by running Run>cmd>ipconfig)
Many user just simply disable the message by untick the "Notify me when this connection has limited or no connectivity" check box, this basically would not solve the problem. Do you understand what does "notify" means? I'm pretty sure the answer is YES. So,if you untick the "Notify me when this connection has limited or no connectivity" checkbox, you will get notified when the problem arise.
But then,if you untick the checkbox,the meaning would be like "Do Not Notify me when this connection has limited or no connectivity". You will end up wondering that you have fix the problem but it is actually still there. Am I right or Am I right? Normally 192.168.1.1 is the IP for your router which is also called the gateway IP.
Just follow the few steps, and try wether it works or not.(The following steps work for the router using 192.168.1.1 IP)
Click on Start button>All Programs>Accessories>Communication>Network Connection
Right click the Local Area Connection and go to properties.
Find the entry called "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)" and double click it. or highlight it then click on properties.
It should be set to "Obtain an IP address automatically", set it to "Use the following IP".
In the IP address field type: 192.168.1.xxx (replace xxx with any number between 2 to 255) I just choose number 8 because 8 is 'ong' mah, so hopefully it bring luck to solve the problem. Just click on the Subnet mask field and Windows should fill it in automatically. In the Default gateway field type: 192.168.1.1 (your modem's gateway IP). The next radio button should already be set to "Use the following DNS server addresses", if not set it. In the first field type 202.188.0.133 and 202.188.1.5 for the second field.This is TMNet DNS number.
Close both the open windows with OK. wait for a few seconds or you can off the modem about 10 seconds and on it back. Now see if the computer can connect to the network.
The latest virus on our list is the dreaded Storm Worm. It was late 2006 when computer security experts first identified the worm. The public began to call the virus the Storm Worm because one of the e-mail messages carrying the virus had as its subject "230 dead as storm batters Europe." Antivirus companies call the worm other names. For example, Symantec calls it Peacomm while McAfee refers to it as Nuwar. This might sound confusing, but there's already a 2001 virus called the W32.Storm.Worm. The 2001 virus and the 2006 worm are completely different programs.
The Storm Worm is a Trojan horse program. Its payload is another program, though not always the same one. Some versions of the Storm Worm turn computers into zombies or bots. As computers become infected, they become vulnerable to remote control by the person behind the attack. Some hackers use the Storm Worm to create a botnet and use it to send spam mail across the Internet.
Worst Computer Virus 2 : Leap-A/Oompa-A
In 2006, the Leap-A virus, also known as Oompa-A, debuted. It uses the iChat instant messaging program to propagate across vulnerable Mac computers. After the virus infects a Mac, it searches through the iChat contacts and sends a message to each person on the list. The message contains a corrupted file that appears to be an innocent JPEG image.
Worst Computer Virus 3 : Sasser and Netsky
Sometimes computer virus programmers escape detection. But once in a while, authorities find a way to track a virus back to its origin. Such was the case with the Sasser and Netsky viruses. A 17-year-old German named Sven Jaschan created the two programs and unleashed them onto the Internet. While the two worms behaved in different ways, similarities in the code led security experts to believe they both were the work of the same person.
Worst Computer Virus 4 : MyDoom
The MyDoom (or Novarg) virus is another worm that can create a backdoor in the victim computer's operating system. The original MyDoom virus -- there have been several variants -- had two triggers. One trigger caused the virus to begin a denial of service (DoS) attack starting Feb. 1, 2004. The second trigger commanded the virus to stop distributing itself on Feb. 12, 2004. Even after the virus stopped spreading, the backdoors created during the initial infections remained active [source: Symantec].
Worst Computer Virus 5 : SQL Slammer/Sapphire
In late January 2003, a new Web server virus spread across the Internet. Many computer networks were unprepared for the attack, and as a result the virus brought down several important systems. The Bank of America's ATM service crashed, the city of Seattle suffered outages in 911 service and Continental Airlines had to cancel several flights due to electronic ticketing and check-in errors.The culprit was the SQL Slammer virus, also known as Sapphire. By some estimates, the virus caused more than $1 billion in damages before patches and antivirus software caught up to the problem [source: Lemos].
Worst Computer Virus 6 : NIMDA
Another virus to hit the Internet in 2001 was the Nimda (which is admin spelled backwards) worm. Nimda spread through the Internet rapidly, becoming the fastest propagating computer virus at that time. In fact, according to TruSecure CTO Peter Tippett, it only took 22 minutes from the moment Nimda hit the Internet to reach the top of the list of reported attacks [source: Anthes].
Worst Computer Virus 7 :The Code Red and Code Red II worms
Worst Computer Virus 8 :The KLEZ Virus
The Klez virus marked a new direction for computer viruses, setting the bar high for those that would follow. It debuted in late 2001, and variations of the virus plagued the Internet for several months. The basic Klez worm infected a victim's computer through an e-mail message, replicated itself and then sent itself to people in the victim's address book. Some variations of the Klez virus carried other harmful programs that could render a victim's computer inoperable. Depending on the version, the Klez virus could act like a normal computer virus, a worm or a Trojan horse. It could even disable virus-scanning software and pose as a virus-removal tool [source: Symantec].
Worst Computer Virus 9 : ILOVEYOU
Who created the ILOVEYOU virus? Some think it was Onel de Guzman of the Philippines. Filipino authorities investigated de Guzman on charges of theft -- at the time the Philippines had no computer espionage or sabotage laws. Citing a lack of evidence, the Filipino authorities dropped the charges against de Guzman, who would neither confirm nor deny his responsibility for the virus. According to some estimates, the ILOVEYOU virus caused $10 billion in damages [source: Landler].
Worst Computer Virus 10 : Melissa
In the spring of 1999, a man named David L. Smith created a computer virus based on a Microsoft Word macro. He built the virus so that it could spread through e-mail messages. Smith named the virus "Melissa," saying that he named it after an exotic dancer from Florida [source: CNN].
