Windows cannot find c:\windows\system32\DelFolders.exe message

In the last few months i was having serious issues wid my PC.There was lump of virus stacked in my system and to remove that i choose to format my system,so i did and installed all drivers etc.... but main problem started after that. When ever i switch on my PC i would get the error dailogue box saying
"Windows cannot find C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\Tools\Delfolders.exe. Make sure youtyped the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, clickthe Start button, and then click Search".
Since i got this message after i restored the system i was able to figure out that it was due to some mismatch in the registry files or so.Hence went to the path C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\Tools\Delfolders.exe. in my system and thought of deleting Delfolders.exe file but to my surprise i coudn't find any file in the Tools folder.Then i thought it was some virus sort of thing and scanned the whole system but it was of no use....It was not identified as Virus and still the message persists.Later on after doing a lot of reasearch in google i cou1d find solution for this.Here It Goes!!!!!
(1)Go to Start->Run and type regedit and then search the registry for exact file reference.Once u find the refrence (that wud be HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce)delete it from the registry.Doing this will not solve the problem permanently it will appear again after subsequent reboot.
(2)So one more step need to be followed i.e go to Start->All Programs->Startup and there u find the Reboot option which is an exe file ,delete that rebbot.exe.

Performing the above two steps will solve ur problem permannetly.
I found that this problem occurs due to mismatch in the drivers during the installation.More on this refer :

Finally i was able to solve this problem permanently.I hope this helps many ppl over there who are facing the same issue.
Happy browing!!!!!!!

Keyboard shortcuts

Searching for the mouse everytime u open and close the window and also for each and every option makes the life difficult for techie guys.Most of the Times we feel lazy performing all the operations wid mouse and loty of time is wasted on it.Instead we can use the keyboard shortcuts which are convenient and easy to use.So Here iam listing almost all the firefox keyboard shorcuts that wud make our life easier.

Alt + D / Ctrl + L- Allows you to directly jump into the location bar(address bar).

ALT + Enter-Opens the address of the website u are viewing in the new tab.

CTRL + R -Reloads the page.

ESC-Stops loading the page.

F11-Full screen mode.Pressing it once will open up the full screen mode and press it again to return back to the normal mode.

Tab-This will help to navigate through all the links in the page u are viewing and hitting the enter will open up that link.

CTRL + T-Opens a new tab.

CTRL + Tab-Selects the next tab. Suppose you have opened up about five tabs to research a couple of different issues, you may need to navigate back and forth between the tabs. This shortcut allows you to move to the next tab to the right. However, you can actually navigate left and right by using CTRL + PG UP and CTRL + PG DN, respectively. Even better, you can CTRL + (1 to 8) to select a specific tab (as long as you have no more than 8 tabs open) since CTRL + 9 takes you directly to the last tab on the right.

ALT + Left Arrow / ALT + Right Arrow-Equivalent to clicking on the Back and Forward buttons to navigate within a website.

CTRL + D-Booknarks the current page u are viewing.

ALT + Home-This Takes u back to the Homepage i.e the page that opens when u first launch the Firefox.

CTRL + W-Closes the Current Tab.

CTRL + Shift + T-Suppose u have closed a wrong Tab by mistake!Don't worry this tab helps u to Undo the closing of a tab.

CTRL + Shift + DEL-Clears the Private Data and keeps the cache and cookies clean.

ALT + F4-This shortcut closes the window i.e entire firefox session.

Ctrl++-Zoom in the page.

CtrlCmd+Shift+D-This Allows u to Bookmark all the Tabs.

CtrlCmd+J-Allows to view all the Downloads

CtrlCmd+H-History

Ctrl+Enter-adds http://www. and .com at the beginning and end of a word. i.e if we give myspace in the addressbar and press this it will fill the adress for u i.e the adress now will be http://www.myspace.com/ saving ur time in typing the whole address.

Shift+Enter-This shortcut completes the .net address.

Ctrl+Shift+Enter-This shortcut completes the .org address.

Failed to Access IIS Metabase Error

Hey all
Today I was working on VS2008 and with the help of "view in browser" option i was trying to view the website but i came across the error "Failed to access IIS Metabase". I was seeing this error for the first time.So i tried to figure out what the problem was and after a long research i was successfull in finding out the solution for this which i would like to share with you all.
Below i mentioned the problem and solution in detail so go through it.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details:
System.Web.Hosting.HostingEnvironmentException: Failed to access IIS metabase.
The process account used to run ASP.NET must have read access to the IIS metabase (e.g. IIS://servername/W3SVC).
Cause:

Microsoft .Net framework installation registers the framework on the IIS. Beside performing many other configrations in the OS and IIS, it also creates ACLs (Access Control List). .NET framework installation registers the framework in the IIS using ASP.NET IIS Registration Tool (aspnet_regiis.exe). The ASP.NET IIS registration tool allows installation program (or administrator) to update script maps for ASP.NET applications to point to the ASP.NET ISAPI version that is associated with the tool.
Solution:

Run the following in the Command Prompt (cmd.exe)

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_regiis -i

-i switch is used for installing ASP.NET and upgrading all application pools to ASP.NET version which came with the ASP.NET IIS Registration Tool. It will ignore the previous version of application pool. Please note that the above command will only affect the applications that are currently mapped to an earlier version of ASP.NET.
The following command will install the script maps pointing to the ASP.NET version that is associated with the ASP.NET IIS Registration Tool to the application "App1".

aspnet_regiis -s W3SVC/1/ROOT/App1
Hope this helps... :)
Happy Coding.
