So, I had to delete the files and the shared directory was having numerous folders. I then wrote a bash one liner (not exactly 1 line) to delete the files.

First I used find to get the list of all the exe files in all folders and stored it in a file (exe_files).

This was the command I then used to delete all the files.

cat exe_files | while read line;do l=`ls -lh "${line}"`;size=`echo $l| cut -d' ' -f5`;if [ $size = "604K" ]; then rm "`echo $l| cut -c"47-"`" ;fi; done

What it does is reads each line in the file and finds the size of each file and if the size is ‘604K‘  then remove the file.

Deleting based on the filesize was not that good, as we might have lost some original file which was correctly 604K. If you wanted a better solution, you would have to write one more if clause to check if the filename is the same as the folder name – better to create a shell script instead of trying a one liner.

Thanks to linux, we could delete all the ~6000 virus files in a simple command without the fear of infection.

This is very well integrated with Google reader that any feeds you subscribe here automatically is reflected in Google reader. Reading a post here marks the post as read in Google reader.

You can recommend, tweet and annotate articles which enables your friends to know what you are doing with your feeds. One important feature is allowing the user to view the post from the site directly in an IFrame. So, I can comment on a post without leaving my feed reader.

They also have a feedly API which lets website owners to write custom views for their content. They also have a plan to allow the owners to better design ads for displaying in their feedly UI.

Overall this is a nice way to read my feeds and I think I am going to try this one for some days. It is available as a free Firefox extension and you can install it by going to the feedly website.

Update: They even have got it integrated with del.icio.us.

Find the Turbogears Catwalk – Remove footer userscript here. You may need to install the Stylish firefox extension for it to work.

Edit your /etc/apt/sources.list file and add the following to it.

deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb feisty eyecandy

deb-src http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb feisty eyecandy

After you do that, update your packages and then install your required package.

Ubuntu users can install recordMyDesktop and gtk-recordMyDesktop with:

sudo apt-get install recordmydesktop gtk-recordmydesktop

Other distro users too can use their package management tool to install it.

This on my system shows up
82 cd
63 ls
51 sudo
51 screen
18 ps
17 irssi
15 python
14 svn
12 irb
11 uptime

javascript:document.body.contentEditable='true'; document.designMode='on'; void 0

in the address bar.

Now you can edit anything in that page. Really cool trick.

First enable Universe repository

Then in your terminal type

sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g

You can view the partition table by using this command

sudo fdisk -l

Then in your /media folder create new mount folders. This is where your filesystem will be mounted. Then make a backup of the /etc/fstab file and edit the file

sudo mkdir /media/windows
sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.bak
gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
Append this line to the fstab file, by substituting the respective drive name. This should be done for every drive in your system.

/dev/hda1    /media/windows    ntfs-3g    defaults,locale=en_US.utf8    0    0

Save the file and reboot the system. You can however mount them without reboot by issuing this command.

sudo umount -a && sudo mount -a

This would unmount all your file systems and again mount them.

This should fix the problem. Let me try publishing this post.
