Beware of fake antivirus software on the net

posted on 12 January 2011

Antivirus live is probably the biggest software scam that ever exists. This application is a fake antivirus software, actually a virus by itself, that installs itself through the internet. it runs like normal antivirus programs, complete with fake security alerts and simulated system scans. it blocks other applications, especially antivirus programs that may notice it and delete it from your computer. It then tells you to purchase a full version so as to save your computer from the many problems it finds in your system, all of which do not even exist. The biggest problem with antivirus live is that its even difficult to uninstall, as the normal uninstallation procedure does not work with this kind of software. to remove this, open your internet explorer and click on the tools tab. here you'll see internet options, and on connection settings, select LAN settings. Uncheck the ticked box beside usu proxy serer. Now you cad download an antivirus live removal tool for your computer. There are also manual steps of removing it, but you'll need a computer expert for that as it entails keying in several codes.

posted on 28 December 2010

Videos whether of music or a movie offer entertainment to those who watch. Imagine a world where there is nothing like that. As much as we enjoy music on radio, it is more thrilling when you can hear the song and see the person singing at the same time. Youtube offers this service. So if you normally use your adobe flash player to check out a video on youtube you better hope it does not crash or become slow. I do and today i was wondering why is my adobe flash player slow.On doing a little findings, i learnt that it gets slow if it has many plugins and add-ons. What you need to do if you experience this problem is go to menu, click settings as you check out how many add-ons or plugins your adobe flash player has. After finding out click delete all add-ons, then do the same to plugins and your player will get back to its normal speed.If this dos not work for you, go online for more information. You will be glad you did.

Problems with my new anti virus programsvirus

posted on 3 December 2010

I have been having loads of trouble with my new ani virus package on my system. I have installed it all ok and it seems fine but it is ever so slow to scan and stuff. I am wondering Should I Uninstall Norton from my system? would they conflict with each other perhaps?. I have only ever used norton but now on mcafee, it seems great but as i said just very slow. I am wondering if having Norton on there is interfering with mcafee and stopping it from running at full speed. I do not see any real need for two anti virus packages so i am sure i could manage without norton if i needed to. I do not pay for norton anymore so i am not even sure it is working at the minute. i think i may contact norton to have them go through with me removing it from the system completely. I want all traces of it removing from the computer so there is no confusion over what anti virus is being used on the computer.

His uncle had just bought a computer but was not very comfortable using it. He asked Jack to help him by giving him some tutorials. They even went out and bought printer and scanner. Jack explained to his uncle what each device is used for. He wanted to take a print out of the photographs that were taken during the trip. He wanted to connect his digital camera and print those pictures. He needed a firewire cable to enable data transfer. He knew how to connect firewire cable to computer. This would enable him to connect various devices like printer, scanner etc to his computer. They made another trip to the hardware store and bought a firewire cable.
