How to make built-in Windows Scheduler run tasks every second

 For those who come here trying the same thing with the Windows Task Scheduler; It is possible to create multiple triggers for one scheduled task. If you create 59 identical triggers with an offset of 1 second to each other, and schedule the task itself to run every minute, you end up the scheduled task to run every second.
The easiest way to create so many triggers is to create a task with one or two triggers, export it to a text file, duplicate the according lines and re-import it.
This should be a "reasonable" and stable alternative to writing a whole new scheduler.

How to schedule email message sending (with Gmail and other email services)

I started using web based email services a long time ago as they were much more flexible solution that standalone email applications and all that way before Gmail or any other of today's popular web based services showed up on the scene. No matter what others claimed I just preferred them over classical email clients. I also tried almost all of the today's popular web based email services but somehow decided to stick with Gmail. There are several reasons for this - it was Goolge owned (and invitation only), the first one loaded with certain features and all that resulting in a fact once you get your email address and start to spread it to people you just don't give up on it and open another one if you don't have to. Somehow it suited me the best, no matter Google actually (as well as all other providers and applications) offers and probably never will offer nothing for free.
But Gmail got me everything I needed until few days ago when I had a need to schedule email to be sent a bit later at the time I knew I won't have any Internet access.

What are DNS servers, why and what to change them to

I've planned to write about Domain Name System or just DNS for a while now, so I figured the time has come to finally do it as well. If you're reading this post than you probably know what DNS is or at least what it stands for.

How to restore classic menu in Office 2007-2010

You perceive Office 2007/2010 as a useful utility (or just eventually got used to it as time passed by), but there was/is (but hopefully won't be much longer) just a little thing you never got used to - new look of menu, introduced with Office 2007. New menu definitely from designer's point of view looks very nice, but from my (user) side I just miss an easy and intuitive way of locating commands.
