Recently my laptop got Virus Attack in XP OS. Here is the culprit name - Antivirus XP 2010. It got downloaded from video site. It acts like antivirus and shows false virus information. Does not allow your computer to open IE or any browser.

Solution - Antivirus XP 2010 removal
Since I had 2 OS, I logged into my Vista and Googled. I found a solution. Simply installed Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and performed a full scan then removed culprit’s information and exe files.

Rundll.exe application not found
After removing the virus, When I rebooted my laptop I found all my shortcuts are missing associations. Again a Google search gave me solution.
Go to the link and download and run the EXE file association fix.

1) Create a silverlight application.

Add a reference to your SharePoint web service. Select Project, Add Service Reference…

In the Add Web Reference dialog box, enter the URL of the ‘Lists’ web service. Web services in SharePoint are located in the ‘_vti_bin’ directory under the relevant site. If you are using web services to access your My Site, then enter the URL: ‘http://my/sites/your-alias- here/_vti_bin/lists.asmx’. If you are using web services to access a SharePoint site located at http://ourteamsite, the URL will be ‘http://ourteamsite/_vti_bin/lists.asmx’.

Click the Go button to confirm the URL. If you have entered a valid URL, then this dialog box tells you that it found a web service. The dialog box will be populated with the various operations available in the web service.

Change the web reference name to something relevant. For accessing the Lists web service, a good web reference name is ‘ListsWebService’.

Silverlight Application Page code

public partial class MainPage : UserControl

{

string test;

public MainPage()

{

InitializeComponent();

try

{

ListsSoapClient proxy = new ListsSoapClient();

proxy.GetListItemsCompleted += new EventHandler<GetListItemsCompletedEventArgs>(proxy_GetListItemsCompleted);

XElement Query = new XElement("Query");

XElement viewfield = new XElement("ViewFields");

XElement QueryOptions = new XElement("QueryOptions");

proxy.GetListItemsAsync("MyContacts", null, Query, viewfield, null, QueryOptions, null);

}

catch (Exception ex)

{

LBL_Name.Text = ex.Message;

}

}

void proxy_GetListItemsCompleted(object sender, GetListItemsCompletedEventArgs e)

{

test = "";

XNamespace ns = "#RowsetSchema";

var query = from x in e.Result.Descendants()

where x.Name == ns + "row"

select x.Attribute("ows_Title").Value;

foreach (string t in query)

test = t + " - " + test ;

LBL_Name.Text = test;

}

You can create one or more alerts for a list or document library in a SharePoint site. When creating alerts you have option of what event and when to get notified. Alerts can be managed by Administrators or Users. SharePoint object model provides methods to manage Alerts programmatically.
SPAlert class provides details on alert like alert frequency, alert type,user who created the alert. This class also provides a method to update alert details. Following code snippet shows how to create SharePoint Alert programmatically:
using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://servername"))
{
using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())
{
SPUser user = web.SiteUsers["domain name\\username];
SPAlert newAlert = user.Alerts.Add();
newAlert.AlertType = SPAlertType.List;
newAlert.List = web.Lists["List Name"];
newAlert.EventType = SPEventType.All;
newAlert.AlertFrequency = SPAlertFrequency.Immediate;
//passing true to Update method will send alert confirmation mail
newAlert.Update(false);
}
}

SharePoint stores the alert information like web application URL and List URL in content database. Because of this, the links inside alert mail will break if web application URL or List URL is changed. To fix this user need to update the alert manually from alert manager or Administrator can run a script to update alerts. Refer this link for more details on this issue.

Alert mails can be customized in two ways:
Approach 1
You can customize the Alert tempaltes of WSS. Alert tempaltes are located in
"C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\Template\XML\AlertTemplates.xml"
Following link has lot of details on this approach:
http://blogs.msdn.com/sharepointdeveloperdocs/archive/2007/12/07/customizing-alert-notifications-and-alert-templates-in-windows-sharepoint-services-3-0.aspx

Approach 2
You can also customize alert mail format by implementing IAlertNotifyHandler interface. Following Microsoft KB article has details on this:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/948321/en-us

How to debug custom alert handlers
Alerts are generated by WSS timer job. Time job reads the event log and sends the alert. So to debug custom alert handlers you need to attach timer process to debugger (OWSTIMER.exe).

If we need to edit New/Edit/Display Form of list most of the time we are using SharePoint designer.
But here is the one nice trick to achieve this functionality.
Just add “&ToolPaneView=2” at the end of the URL and refresh the page.

So that you’re URL will be like this.

http://sharepointkings/... /Lists/Demo/NewForm.aspx?RootFolder...&Source=…&ToolPaneView=2
http://sharepointkings/... /Lists/Demo/EditForm.aspx?RootFolder...&Source=…&ToolPaneView=2
http://sharepointkings/... /Lists/Demo/DispForm.aspx?RootFolder...&Source=…&ToolPaneView=2

You can see add webpart tool pan beside this web part.

Just add or remove your webpart and your work is done.
cheers
Below contents are Update as on 22/07/08
There is one more parameter with the same name just pass the value 3 with that.
So that you’re URL will be like this.

http://sharepointkings/... /Lists/Demo/NewForm.aspx?RootFolder...&Source=…&ToolPaneView=3

And that will take you to this type of page.

This will allow you to search webpart across all available galleries
