Income Tax Department - REFUNDS

Salary taxpayers who have not received refunds for assessment years 2003\04 to 2006\07 can click on the link below and query using the PAN number and assessment year whether any refund due to them has been returned undelivered from the menu 'undelivered salary refund management system'. If any refund has been returned undelivered due to change in address, then the taxpayer can enter the present address and the refund will be sent to the taxpayer at the new address.

The link to the website is as under:

Speed up copying/moving files in Vista

There is a new process which slows down the moving or copying of files in vista. Remote Differential Compression, but can easily be turned off and disabled. In Control Panel, Programs and Features -> Turn on or turn off Windows features -> Search through and uncheck the box with Remote Differential Compression.

Hope this will speed up the Copy/Move file process without SP1.

I read this in a technet. i dont understand much about the below info tho. It is said to be Vista TCP/IP "Receive Window Auto-Tuning " slows network access.

To disable it, open a command prompt and type:

netsh interface tcp set global rss=disabled
netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled
