These Four Lines Code will Crash Anyone's Smartphone (or) PC.

There’s a notorious link being shared on social networking websites that can crash nearly all smartphones — all you have to do is just click on this link. Known as "crashsafari.com(clicking on this will crash your browser), this link crashes your browser by overloading it with thousands of characters in the address bar each second. As a result, the phone memory exhausts and your device crashes.
Back in September, we encountered a  similar bug in Google Chrome that caused the browser to crash with just 16 characters. This website link is being spread via apps, social networks, simple URLs, and shortened URLs. It should be noted that this bug isn’t malicious and it doesn’t break anything in your phone.

Devices affected by Crashsafari.com:

The bug hits iPhone’s Safari browser in the worst manner possible. If you click on the link, it crashes your iPhone 6S or iPhone 5S running iOS version 9.2.1 or a regular iPhone 6 running iOS 9.2. After about 20 seconds, it’ll force the iPhone to reboot and heat up the device.
Even though the new bug is called crashsafari, it affects Android phones and Google Chrome as well. Apart from phones, this bug also affects desktop browsers if your computer doesn’t have enough RAM and CPU power.

How does Crashsafari.com work?


The website is running a small piece of JavaScript that creates a loop with the help of History API and crashes your device. The History API allows the websites to change the URL of the page without performing page refresh.
If you are an iPhone user, you should be very careful about any new incoming shortened links as they could forcibly reboot your phones. Notably, these links have already been opened 100,000 times. You are advised to take extra care as it’s being spread on the web via misleading links.

Collection of Windows 10 Hidden Secret Registry Tweaks

Collection of Windows 10 Hidden Secret Registry Tweaks We know that Microsoft is working on the upcoming operating system  Windows 10  and currently a  free Technical Preview  build is available for download to public so that we all can test its new features and can provide feedback and suggestions to Microsoft. Since Windows 10 is under development and testing, there are many new experimental features which are put into the OS but are not activated because these features might not be complete and can cause problems to users. On the other hand, some new features are enabled to replace old features but Microsoft also keeps the old features in the OS hidden from users.
