How To Send A FaceBook Friend Request When Blocked - This request can't be sent - Trick - Screenshots

So Facebook has a new trick up their sleeve which is annoying the heck out of many many people. In fact, I myself tried to send a request to someone who lives less that 15 minutes away and it wouldn't let me. So if you've gotten the Facebook "Do you know this person?", "Friend Request Can't Be Sent" message while trying to send a Facebook friend request, here's the GeekDrop trick on how to outslick Facebook and send that request anyway. It's actually very simple.


Here's what you'll be needing:


FaceBook Friend Requests Blocked

FaceBook Friend Requests Blocked



Here's the latest thing Facebook has thrown at it's members to try and apparently cut down on networking and making new friends?


I managed to get this while trying to send a friend request to a celebrity (a guitarist in an 80's band) who has over 4,400 friends, so this person obviously doesn't mind adding as many "strangers" as possible, (and probably wants to). But Facebook, in it's infinite wisdom, has chosen to punish people anyone who does this.

Logintool 2093.exe

 I have a small usb thumb drive that was sent to me by a vendor.  It is write protected by some software called logintool 2093.exe.  I can't figure out how to remove it and it's bugging me.  I can crack the password but it's my drive and I know the password.  I just don't want it write protected at all.  Anyone know of a utility that will do this?  Iv'e been looking around but not coming up with much.  


Thanks in advance.

And the winner is....the wrong girl!

There was a pretty major mix-up on yesterday's live season finale of "Australia's Next Top Model". The host, Saraj Murdoch accidentally announced the WRONG WINNER. 


And she didn't realize what she'd done until after the wrong girl gave her acceptance speech.  (She starts to figure out what happened around the 2:45 mark.)

SO it has been really hush hush on the upcoming Windows based OS Windows Phone 7.  There really wasn't much out on the specs or who would be the carrier.  No information till now....


Microsoft filmed its commercials for the phone, commercials that are not slated to be aired for some time.  However they were leaked on the internet by  JP Incorporated who did the music for the videos.  As you can imagine Microsoft flipped and the videos were pulled, however not before they were downloaded and posted on youtube.

Have you ever had to re-install your operating system and either the sticker is not on the side of your computer or its worn and no longer readable?  In older versions of windows you could easily retrieve the key with no issue.  Now days Windows has made it more secure so if you go looking in the registry you will find it however its encrypted so its worthless to you.  Never fear there are still ways to get it.

Apple now allows VLC Video Player

Well in a surprising step Apple is now allowing users to use VLC video players with their apple products. If your not familiar with VLC then I can tell you its one of the best video players out there and it supports a multiple different types of videos. VLC is my current default video player on my PC. In the past with Apple you have been limited to what kinda videos you could use on your ipod's, iphone's and ipads so this is a big step for apple users. Basically it means no more converting if you want to watch videos that are not MPEG4 or H264.

New FaceBook Virus Alert




There's a new FaceBook virus going around .... It's actually a "Phish", which means you are baited into going to a false page that looks just like the FaceBook login page, where unsuspecting people may think they've somehow been logged out of FaceBook and re-enter their login and password. Once they do, the "phishermen" log and save your login information, and use your profile however they want.
