Google Desktop is one of the useful software when you need to search the contents of the files on your computer. However, if you have old XP configuration (I am saying old but it still works much better than Vista), it may slow down your computer to boot up. Whenever you need to use Google Desktop, you can prevent starting up Google Desktop. Here is how to do:

1- Click Start+Run and type “msconfig” then hit enter

2- Unclick on Google Desktop under Startup section,

With this way, you can control how Google Desktop starts.

If you send a compressed file with the php or other codes in it, Gmail may reject the attachment due to security and attachment guidelines. You may receive the following message:

Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.
Subject: Emailing: XXXX.zip Sent: 2/14/2010 1:15 PM
The following recipient(s) could not be reached: ‘XXXX XXXX’ on 2/14/2010 1:15 PM 552 5.7.0 review our attachment guidelines. 20sm5501368iwn.13

It apparently shows that the attachment was sent as a zip file. Gmail is able to check the content of the email if the attachment is compressed in zip format.

The solution of this is to send the same attachment as a rar format. Gmail is not able to check the content of the attachments compressed with WinRAR so, you should have no problem to transmitting the file to the recipient.
