Add Gpedit.msc to Windows 7 Home & Starter Editions

The Group Policy Editor (Gpedit.msc) is one of the most useful tools for administering policy on Windows 7. While Windows 7 Ultimate, Professional and Enterprise editions have gpedit.msc, Unfortunately certain editions of Windows 7 like Home Premium, Home Basic and Starter Editions do not include the Group Policy Editor.
One of thewindowsclub forum members davehc has compiled a tool Gpedit Installer that allows you to add gpedit.msc to Windows versions that do not have it, like Windows 7 Home Premium, Home Basic and Starter Editions.

To do so, download the zip file, unzip its contents and run the installer as admin. This is how it will go:

At the end of the run, you will find that it will have add the Group Policy Editor to your Windows Home Premium, Home Basic or  Starter Edition.

Above Steps are enough for x32 bit systems.

Extra Step for x64 bit systems:
After Installing the above installer - Download the zip file below and extract the gpecit.msc file to C:\Windows\System32 Folder manually

So if you plan to try it out, do let us know how it goes. Best to always create a system restore point first before making any changes to your system.

Google blocks all CO.CC sites from its search results

Google has taken its fight against spammy sites to the next level. It has decided to stop indexing all co.cc websites.
This move on the part of Google has affected over 11 million sites, who have been removed from Google’s index, and that is quite a large number. It appears that a significant number of websites using this domain were spammy or shady websites. But unfortunately those who were running genuine websites have also been affected by this blanket decision. Try searching for co.cc sites and see.
We absolutely do try to be granular, but I wanted to mention that if we see a very large fraction of sites on a specific freehost be spammy or low-quality, we do reserve the right to take action on the freehost as a whole.
The .cc top-level domain belongs to the Cocos Islands, a small Australian territory in the Indian Ocean. Co.cc is a Korean company based which offers free or almost free subdomains to anyone who is intersted in getting one, and it is this subdomain which has been affected.
So what next? Will  these spammy sites shut down their business? Or will they just get a new domain like .biz which is low-cost? Or perhaps simply move on to create a free account on wordpress.com or blogspot.com?
