Routers and Firewalls
First of all, if you don't already have a router, it is recommended that you go and get one, even if you only have one computer in your home. A Router acts as the best kind of firewall, a hardware firewall. It protects you from all kinds of viruses and keeps your information safe. Hackers who want to gain access to your computer who may try to port scan your computer. High end routers may be able to completely block these scans or at least slow the hacker down. The majority of hackers on the Internet do not want to waste time trying to get through a router, and would rather move onto another victim.
Apart from hardware firewalls, there are also lots of software that is available for you to install free of charge. Many of the smaller companies provide just as good protection from threats as large brand names such as Norton or Sophos.
The four main types of programs that you will need to protect your computer are an active virus scanner, a firewall, a spyware scanner, and a general anti-virus program.
Virus Scanners
An active virus scanner is a virus scanner than runs in the background whenever your computer is running. These programs tend to take up very little memory because they only run quick scans of any and every file. A2 Guard or ASquared is a highly recommended program. It scans files in the background and does not compromise your CPU's resources in doing so.
Software Firewalls
A firewall is something that prevents intrusions into your computer. There are many versions available on the Internet, so you will be able to find lots of a free firewalls to download. One highly recommended firewall is ZoneAlarm. The free firewall provides basic protection from intrusions. ZoneAlarm free does not come with an anti virus that would normally come with the retail version. Therefore you will have to install other programs with it.
Spyware Scanners
A spyware scanner is something that scans for spyware. You only need to run this program every month or so. The easiest program to use, as well as being free, is Ad-Aware.
Spyware is usually installed when you visit a website that has infected cookies. Using the program A2 as described above, you can choose whether to reject these cookies anytime the program suspects something.
Anti-Virus
A general anti virus is a program that scans for viruses and either deletes or quarantines them. A favorite among computer users is the freeware AVG. It thoroughly scans files when performing a scan and is very reliable.
Armed with these programs, you should have no trouble browsing through sites on the Internet.
We hear about new computer viruses all the time. What is the motivation behind developing computer viruses and watching them wreak havoc on the Internet?
Fact Gathering
Many viruses raid your documents including your email address book for information that can be used to make business contacts. This data is assembled into a database that can then be sold to others as a qualified list of "opportunity seekers." The result is a mountain of spam emails, and even unsolicited direct mail pieces, if the address books also contain home addresses as well. Unfortunately, some unscrupulous companies look upon this invasion of privacy as a victimless crime, since you are not doing any permanent damage to anyone's hard drive. However, theft of data is still theft, no matter what the intended purpose.
Viruses Create Trouble
The fact is that some people love to create problems for other people. Perhaps it is someone who has an axe to grind with big business. Maybe it is someone who thinks the world is getting too dependent on the Internet for worldwide communications. Of course, creating computer viruses may also just be a way to get attention, even if one has to remain anonymous in order to avoid going to jail. The sheer thrill of knowing that your creation disrupted systems all over the world may feed an ego that doesn't have much else going for it.
The Thrill of the Chase
For some, it is not really wanting to cause trouble for other people so much as it is seeing if one can create a virus, launch it successfully, and have it make some sort of an impact before it is contained. For this type of person, it is the process that brings the satisfaction, not the end result. Developing the virus and setting it free is the thing that makes it all worthwhile.
Computer viruses cost individuals and companies untold millions of dollars each year. While some computer viruses are more along the line of merely irritating, there are viruses that have crippled whole infrastructures and created major problems. Whatever the reason behind creating a computer virus, there has yet to be a legitimate excuse for developing one.
The computer's registry can become corrupted by spyware and viruses. In addition, with continually installing and removing software, not all programs will remove themselves cleanly and completely from the registry.
There are two main ways to clean up a computer's registry – cleaning manually using the Windows Registry Editor, or using registry cleaning software. Manually cleaning your computer registry should only be attempted by someone who understands what the registry entries mean. Software programs can cease to function correctly if essential registry entries are removed.
The Windows Registry Editor
To manually clean your registry using the Windows Registry Editor, first create a backup of the registry, and then remove unnecessary files:
1. On the desktop, click the Start button on the left bottom corner of the taskbar
After creating a backup of your registry, you can go to the left side of the registry editor window and view how your computer is configured.
7. Access the many different entries in your Windows registry. It is separated into primary sections: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, HKEY_CURRENT_USER, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, HKEY_USERS and HKEY_CURRENT CONFIG. Each section contains a different set of entries related to different aspects of Windows operation.
8. Click on one of the plus-signs (+) next to one of the root directories, opening a more detailed list. This second level will have more directories to choose from, and will make it easier for you to find entries you need to clean the registry.
9. Delete entries in the registry that you know are either causing conflicts or are no longer necessary. Do this by pressing the "Delete" key, or by right-clicking on your mouse and choosing "Delete entry."
10. Invest in a third-party registry application to help you clean your Windows registry. Several programs are available that do the dirty work for you. Some even include backup capabilities to retrace their steps in the event of a critical error.
11. Clean your boot records by changing which programs load themselves at startup. Click through both the LOCAL_MACHINE and CURRENT_USER directories until you reach Software/Microsoft/Windows/Run and RunOnce. From here, you can clean out registry entries that are causing certain programs to run on startup.
DIFFERENT VERSION..... HAVE A LAUGH!!!!!
TO ALL FOLKS WHO WERE BORN IN THE
1950's, 60' s, 70's and early 80's !!
First, some of us s urvived being born to mothers who did not have an OB-Gyne and drank San Miguel Beer while they carried us.
While pregnant, they took cold or cough medicine, a te Linunod, balikutsa, bukhayo and didn't worry about diabetes.
Then after all that trauma, our baby cribs were made of hard wood covered with lead-based paints, ang uban kay duyan nga habol gihigtan ug pisi nga inigtabyog ug kusog ma pakong intawon ta sa bongbong.
We had no soft cushy cribs that play music, no disposable diapers (lampin lang sa General Milling nga naa'y faded picture nga nag-salute), and when we rode our bikes, we had no helmets, no kneepads, wala pa gyu'y break ang bisikleta.
As children, we would ride in hot un-airconditioned buses with wooden seats (Bisaya Bus nga pultahan puros ang kilid, Corominas Bus nga senimana ang brake), or cars with no airconditioning & no seat belts (karon kay Minibus na nga nindot kaayo ug sounds or Ceres Bus nga bugnaw ug aircon)
Riding on the back of a carabao on a breezy summer day was considered a treat. (karon; ang mga bata wala na kaila ug Kabaw)
We drank water from the garden hose and NOT bottled mineral water sa Nature Spring or Viva, or Absolute Mineral water (usahay gani, straight from the faucet or poso or Tabay!)
We shared one soft drink bottle with four of our friends, and NO ONE actually died from this. Or contacted hepatitis.
We ate rice with star margarine, bahaw nga gibutangan ug asin ug mantika sa baboy, drank raw eggs straight from the shell, and drank sofdrinks with real sugar in it (dili diet coke or Pepsi Max), but we weren't sick or overweight kay......
WE WERE ALWAYS OUTSIDE PLAYING!!
We would leave home in the morning and play all day, and get back when the streetlights came on. Syatong, Bato-Lata, Bagol, Dakop-Dakop, Tago-Tago, Ngita'g Kaka.
No one was able to reach us all day ( wala pa'y uso ang cellphone) . And yes, we were O.K.
We would spend hours building our wooden trolleys (katong bearing ang ligid) or Karitong Kawayan nga karaang tsinilas ang giporma nga ligid and then ride down the street , wala ma'y gidungog nga naligsan atoh! After hitting the sidewalk or falling into a canal (sewage channel) a few times, we learned to solve the problem ourselves with our bare & dirty hands .
We did not have Playstations, Nintendo's, X-boxes, no video games at all, no 100 channels on cable, no DVD movies, no surround stereo, no IPOD's, no cell phones, no computers, no Internet, no chat rooms, and no Friendsters. ........ ...WE HAD REAL FRIENDS and we went outside to actually talk and play with them!
We fell out of trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth and there were no stupid lawsuits from these accidents. The only rubbing we get is from our friends with the words..sakit bai ? pero kung kontra gani nimo ang imong kadula,,,,singgitan lang dayon ug..Mayra,Gabaan!
We played marbles (jolen) in the dirt , washed our hands just a little and ate Pan Bahug-bahug & Bagumbayan (recycled bread man diay to kay wala mahalin!) We were not afraid of getting germs in our stomachs.
We had to live with homemade guns (giporma nga kahoy, gihigtan ug garter ug lastiko) , saplong , tirador ug uban pa nga pwedeng magkasakitay. Pero lingaw gihapon kaayo ang tanan.
We made up games with sticks ( syatong ), and cans ( Bato-Lata )and although we were told they were dangerous, wala man gyud to'y actual nga nabuta bah, bukol lang nuon sa agtang naa.
We walked, rode bikes, or took tricycles to a friend's house and knocked on the door or batoon ug gagmay nga bato ang bungbong, or just yelled for them to jump out the window!
Mini basketball teams had tryouts and not everyone made the team. Those who didn't pass had to learn to deal with the disappointment. Wala pa nang mga childhood depression ug damaged self esteem ek-ek ra na. Ang maglagot, pildi.
Ang mga Ginikanan naa ra sa daplin para motan-aw ra sa duwa sa mga bata, dili para manghilabot ug makig-away sa ubang parents.
That generation of ours has produced some of the best risk-takers, problem solvers, creative thinkers and successful professionals ever! They are the CEO's, Engineers, Doctors and Military Generals of today.
The past 50 years have been an explosion of innovation and new ideas.
We had failure, success, and responsibility. We learned from our mistakes the hard way.
You might want to share this with others who've had the luck to grow up as real kids. We were lucky indeed.
And if you like, forward it to your kids too, so they will know how brave their parents were.
It kind of makes you wanna go out and climb a tree, doesn't it?!
