Spending 5 hours trying to figure out the wepkey


I am in Bahrain now for Eid Holiday.. I came here to visit my friend who is staying and studying there. She picked me up from the airport heading back to her apartment. when we reached there I remembered something important that have to be done through the Internet! I switched my laptop on trying to connect to the Internet via her wireless connection.


Me: what is your wep key?
Bhh: emmmm... try 0123456789

Me: it does not work!!

Bhh: then try 1234567890

Me: are you sure about the wep key?

Bhh: yes it was something like that!

Me: Ohh god... please, try to remember!

Bhh: Then try 0987654321 or 9876543210

Me: Comeon both are not working!

Bhh: I am not sure I cant remember!

Me: Ok lets go out for dinner and we will try to figure it out later!

Bhh: Ok


So we went out for dinner and did some grocery shopping together.. after that we returned back to here place.
I was trying to read the manual for "net gear access point" in order to solve this bothering problem.
She offered me her laptop, but I didn't really wanna use her laptop since I have to check some important issues from my own laptop where the passwords are stored there and couldn't really memorise them!
Again to the search process but this time trying to find out a software that might retrieves her wep key. it took me more than two hours searching for the right software for the retrieval process! until I found "wireless key view" for retrieving wep key passwords!


it was free of charge, a very simple software. I did the installation on her machine. and guess what was the password? 1234567891 !!!!!!!

I couldn't stop laughing and spend the entire day repeating the numbers in a loud voice!! again and again!

Eid Greetings from TG to all blogger


Eidkum Mubarak :) O 3asakoOom min 3awadah.

We got a visitor we got a Little Monkey

Little Monkey discovering & wondering

My sis came yesterday carrying a yellow cage with her.. I was wondering is it a dog or cat? Guess what was inside it? an adorable little Monkey!!! it was a gift for my cousin who is in deep love with animals. She purchased it through the Internet and got it released from the customs yesterday. So the Monkey stayed for two day at our house because she wanted to make some medical test/checkup to make sure that he is in a good condition. and to get him some clothes and stuff before sending him to their house.
The best part that we were trying to let him wear the diaper while making sure not to hurts his tail.. looool ..as we made a small hole to get his tail out of the diaper!!

Emmm.. do I have to wear this!

Today early morning and before going to my work, I wanted to check on him, he was totally sad and scared :( I stayed playing with him for couple of minutes and while I was leaving the room he started screaming and shouting!!!! He didn't really want me to leave as he was feeling lonely! but I had no choice since I was almost late for my work. When I came back from work I found him sleeping tight holding the towel innocently! Litttle monkey you've been missed

Ohh yeah Banan is my favorite

World's mightiest atom-smasher starts operations today - Wed,Sep 10, 2008


The world's biggest atom smasher fired up today by the particle physicists, in a mission to answer some of the most perplexing questions about "The nature of the universe"designed to simulate conditions of the Big Bang that created the physical Universe .
They have fired a beam of particles called protons around the 27km long tunnel which houses the LHC "Large Hadron Collider" that was designed to accelerate sub atomic partiles to nearly the speed of light and then smash them together! with a machine that costs 5 billion Pounds.

Another big challenge will be testing the theory of supersymmetry, which postulates that the members of the known bestiary of sub-atomic particles have related, but more massive, counterparts.

Internet-driven rumours said the LHC would create black holes or a nasty hypothetical particle called a strangelet that would gobble up the planet. CERN commissioned a panel to verify its safety calculations and France also carried out its own assessment.

The first four days of Ramadan

It has been 4 days now since the Holy month started. I was not expecting Ramadan this year to be that easy! Although it comes earlier this year in summer with unbelievable humidity, I didn't really feel that tire during those days. The only bothering issue was the unusual traffic! Ohh god I really hate it! Its not only in the mornings it's just like 24/7!

Not to mention the roads 5 minutes before “Maghrib Athan”, where people drive really crazy to reach their destination. it's like being in 5 minutes race with cars at a minimum driving speed of 120 kph !

Why the speed racer? It is with no harm if you leave 15 minutes earlier!

Another minor bothering issue got to do with my morning coffee!! It's like starting the day with a car without fuel! being weak at work between feeling sleepy and not really functioning/concentrating!
