Open Google in english - always...

Hi,

Localization is nice but not when I get Google, I like my Google in English.

Found a way to do this, just open the following link and it will always open in English:

Solve the drive maps disconnection problem

Hi,
I had a problem that the users kept disconnecting, found a registry key to keep the connection connected up to 18 hours.

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters

Name: KeepConn
Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 1–65535

The value is in seconds and the default is 600 (10 min).

Enjoy.
