How To Read .msg File Without Outlook In Windows

So today I got stuck with .msg file attachments.I don’t have Outlook installed in my Windows 7 and I use Mozilla Thunderbird as my email client. So I wanted some alternate solution. It took a bit of time as most of the software to open a .msg file or to convert .msg file to .eml format are paid only and you can only use them on trail basis. I found few free software too but those didn’t work. When I was starting to lose hope I got stumbled onto Free Opener software :) This free file opener software opens a whole lot of file formats. But the main thing is it can open .msg files. So if you are using Windows and don’t have Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express installed, just download and install this free software. And you don’t have to worry about opening Outlook Messages that you received in your mail.

A Great Free Alarm Clock For Windows Computers

I don’t have watch. I don’t need it. Mobile phone is good enough for me to show me the time :) But sadly I lost my cell phone few days back :( And guess what, the problem I faced was to find a device where I can set an alarm to get up early enough to go to office in time! So I had one meaningful option and that is to use my laptop as my alarm clock. But Windows doesn’t have any default alarm functionality installed within the OS. And as usual I was looking for a free software to fit my purpose. Thankfully, this time it didn’t take long. I found a great free alarm clock software for Windows. It has all the features that you need in a standard alarm clock. You can easily set repetitive alarms everyday, use snooze or even use custom alarm sound using your own mp3 file.

Latest Firefox 12 Stopped Working Because Of Babylon Toolbar

Just few days back I wrote about how to get Babylon Translator for free. But the installation messed up my Firefox browser. Don’t get afraid :) It’s not like you can’t install Babylon Translator software if you want to use Firefox for browsing. But if after installing Babylon you see that your Firefox has stopped working completely like when you click on any option in Menu Bar it won’t open or when you enter some url in the address bar and enter it and nothing happens, just check whether you have installed Babylon Toolbar in Firefox. You will see some icon like in the screenshot at the top right corner of your Firefox browser. Just uninstall the Toolbar and you will be fine. You can use Babylon Translator and Firefox at the same time.

Download Babylon Translator 9 For Free

Just today I got stumbled on to something that I was always looking for. A free version of Babylon Translator that you can use without purchasing. It is a Limited version for Babylon 9 that is for personal use only. But I didn’t find any time limit to it as you can see in evaluation version. I just downloaded and used it. You can add free Babylon dictionaries in this version just like you can do in paid version. That means you don’t need to connect to internet to get the translation. I am using free Babylon English to English dictionary.

Reveal Your Yahoo Messenger Password Hidden Behind Asterisk

I use Yahoo Messenger a lot for chatting. But the issue is I have separate Yahoo account to log in to YM and chat. I never use my Yahoo mail account that I frequently use for mailing purpose . I was naive when I started using internet and frankly speaking, two of my Yahoo accounts got hacked while chatting. Since then I have never used my Yahoo mail id for Yahoo Messenger :)

How to Play Video Files Having Ordered Chapters

If you are an anime fan and download mini encoded mkv files for watching anime series, then you have probably encountered this format called Ordered Chapters. So basically the uploading team will cut the opening and ending themes of the anime to two separate files. These two will be common for all the main episode files and should be placed in the same folder. That way the file size of the main anime episodes will be significantly less and it will be quicker to upload and download and will save some bandwidth.
