Theoretically Google Chrome is capable of syncing bookmarks among multiple computers, but practically not, because it is only syncing if you switch sync off and back on, and even in this case, if you delete a bookmark using one computer, it is put back using the other.

Solution / fix / workaround: Chrome is storing the bookmarks in the file Bookmarks. Before starting the browser, this file has to be downloaded from an FTP, then you can do the required modifications in the file, that is, use the browser normally, and finally, the file has to be uploaded to the same FTP. I've written some scripts to do this.

run.vbs
Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.Run chr(34) & "x:\path\chrome_bm.cmd" & Chr(34), 0
Set WshShell = Nothing

chrome_bm.cmd
ncftpget -u ftp_username -p ftp_password ftp.server.com "C:\Documents and Settings\Windows XP Username\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default" Bookmarks
"C:\Documents and Settings\Windows XP Username\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"
ncftpput -u ftp_username -p ftp_password ftp.server.com / "C:\Documents and Settings\Windows XP Username\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Bookmarks"

In run.vbs put the path of the chrome_bm.cmd file instead of x:\path\, e.g. d:\bin\. In chrome_bm.cmd put your Windows XP Username instead of Windows XP Username, e.g. skynet, and instead of ftp_username, ftp_password and ftp.server.com put your FTP account username, password and the address of your FTP server. Of course these three has to be the same on each of the computers you use with Chrome.

Under Windows 7 the path will be C:\Users\Windows 7 Username\AppData\Local instead of
C:\Documents and Settings\Windows XP Username\Local Settings\Application Data.

ncftpget.exe

ncftpput.exe

run.vbs

chrome_bm.cmd

If you're done with everything, create a shortcut to run.vbs to the desktop or wherever you like.

Important: stop bookmark sync in Chrome.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Options\WunderBar]

and set the value of BootModule (DWORD value, if it's not existing then create it) to 6 for displaying shortcuts, and to 5 for folder list at startup.

Wanna check outgoing emails of your employees?

Press Alt+F11 in Outlook and copy the below to Application_ItemSend:

Private Sub Application_ItemSend(ByVal Item As Object, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim objRecip As Recipient
Dim strMsg As String
Dim res As Integer
Dim strBcc As String
On Error Resume Next

strBcc = "test@test.com"

Set objRecip = Item.Recipients.Add(strBcc)
objRecip.Type = olBCC
If Not objRecip.Resolve Then
strMsg = "Could not resolve the Bcc recipient. " & "Do you want still to send the message?"
res = MsgBox(strMsg, vbYesNo + vbDefaultButton1, "Could Not Resolve Bcc Recipient")
If res = vbNo Then
'Cancel = True
End If
End If

Set objRecip = Nothing
End Sub

If this is complete, close Outlook and click yes when it asks if you wanna save the changes. Then run Outlook again, Alt+F11 and attach a digital signature, then close again and save.

Wireless devices in the Sony VAIO P can be controlled using the miracle called SmartWi - big, slow, unnecessary. Here is skyWi.

First you need to install the drivers of all wireless devices (BlueTooth, WLAN, Qualcomm HS-USB) and the Chipset driver, then - this is also important - the Visual C runtime files.
