If you copy contant from web and paste them into Microsoft Word file, you may found that there are a lot of hyperlinks, which you may want to delete them.
So, how to you delete those unused hyperlinks? Simply right-click them one by one and choose “Remove hyperlink“? This method is very time consuming especially if you have a very long article that has a lot of hyperlinks.
The second method you may try to paste the content into a notepad first, then copy content from notepad, and paste again into a new Word file. This method will also remove the heading and style of your content, it is because when you paste something to notepad, notepad will only read plain text from it.
So, how to solve this problem wisely? The best method is to paste your content into a new word file, press “Ctrl + A” to select all, and then use the shortcut key “Ctrl + Shift + F9” to remove all hyperlinks.
Simple, huh?

docx is Microsoft Office 2007 Word documents extension. Now, you can view docx files using Firefox by installing OpenXMLViewer, which is available for Windows, Mac and Linux users.
The picture above shows the architecture of OpenXML Viewer. After installing the Firefox plugin, you are able to open any docx files using Firefox.

Although Google Chrome is more “lightweight” compare with other famous browsers such as Firefox and Opera, but one thing that make most of the users avoid using it is because it missing the support of plugins and extensions which will greatly increase the usability of the browser.
However, the latest Google Chrome supports Greasemonkey script. Since there is no way to install extension, so the browser will only loads the scripts from c:\scripts. Furthermore, users need to add the parameter –enable-greasemonkey at the end of the shortcut.
You need build 3499 or later in order to run Greasemonkey script. You may use this method to always get the latest version of Google Chrome.

Sometimes, my freinds keep sending or forwarding meaningless emails to me, which really annoying me especially when i was busy. But the problem is i don’t know how to ask them to stop doing so ( actually some of the mails do bring me some info, but most of them just wasting my time!).
As i go through this article, i found StopForwarding.Us may help me. Simply provide your friend’s name and email address, and it will send an email to your friend and ask them to stop forwarding meaningless emails. Your freind will not know who is the person that complain about his/her action and most probably they will though someone is spying on their computer!
Your friend will receive an anonymous email which ask them to stop spamming/forwarding emails and he will recognize his errors in sending those meaningless emails. This is the email that he will receive.
I personally think that it would be better if let us to include our name or email. So that our friend can only exclude our name in their “mailing list” while let the others interested people still able to read their mails.
