Even though i am using avira anti virus software today, i would still recommend to everyone the free edition of AVG Anti-virus. Just like its older free versions, it offers one of the best protection against viruses. It is made not to slow your computer but still capable of giving virus protection at its best. The new free edtion of AVG has a added interface which makes its easier for user to navigate and use. It still overs a real time protection against viruses which is essential for all computers nowadays. Its fast and easy updates is still one of the best in the security industry. This free edition of AVG has receieved a lot of positive response from different users in CNET. So if you haven't still tried the free edition of AVG i guess its time for you to try it now.

One day, one of my students asked me if i know how something about overclocking. It was definitely my first time in stumbling upon that word. So i did a research on the internet hoping to know what it is. It caught my attention because my student mentioned that it is done to improve the speed of a computer. Here is what i have learned.


Overclocking is the process of running a computer component at a higher clock rate than it was designed for or was specified by the manufacturer. This practice is usually done by computer-geeks seeking an increase in the performance of their computers. Some of them purchase low-end computer components which they then overclock to higher speeds, or overclock high-end components to attain levels of performance beyond the specified values. Knowing the fact that many computers now require new system requirements due to their power and speed overclocking become famous. With the boost in power and speed that overclocking can offer many of today's computer professionals are studying the process on how to do overclocking.

Here are some of the advantages of overclocking

1. You can buy inexpensive computer components and overclock it for a much greater performance.

2. increase in performance in almost everything that you usually do in your computer like gaming and video editing.

3. you can gain useful knowledge and hands-on experience about your system and PC systems in general.

Disadvantages:

1. increase in electrical power consumption

2. mistakes in overclocking can permanently destroy your new computer component.

3. if not properly set, it will lead to problems in system stability.


I really do hope that someday i would learn how to do overclocking, not really to make my computer a lot more faster but to the fact that i will surely learn a lot in the process of making such changes in a computer component.

Welcome, this is our official site intended for our online discussions and assignments. Please visit this site regularly so that you will be updated on our inline discussions. For your first post, we would like to know your expectations for this course, for the instructors as well as the staff. Please fell free to state it in any language you like. Though we would appreciate it very much if you can state your replies in english. When selecting your profile, just select anonymous but be sure to right your name in your post.

When we use the internet we usually provide some personal in formations to sites that we visit. Amidst the fact that these sites would claim that our data are kept secret and no other person can access it, how will we know that they actually hold their words? Will we know if our information are being distributed to other people? I guess not. Clearing up our cookies and installing firewalls and other software for internet privacy would not assure us that no one is watching what we are doing online. We should face the fact the we are being watch by someone when we are online? With the big leap in technology advancements, this fact would surely not need any arguments. The questions now is there. “Is there something that assures us of our privacy on the internet?” “Is their any laws that will safeguard our privacy online?” I’m just a 21 year old person who happen t read an article about it in a magazine that I downloaded online. I know that I don’t have the authority much more enough knowledge to tackle this thoroughly. All I have is a concern to everyone who wants privacy online.


Is your computer experiencing slowness these pass days? If you are already sure that there is no virus in your computer and you still experience the same problem. I guess it’s the time for you to try Disk Defragmenter. Many computer user are aware about this Defragmenter but not all knows how important it is to be use at least once a month. Defragmentation is the process that reduces the amount of fragmentation in file systems. It does this by physically organizing the contents of the disk to store the pieces of each file close together and contiguously. It also attempts to create larger regions of free space using compaction to impede the return of fragmentation. Some defragmenters also try to keep smaller files within a single directory together, as they are often accessed in sequence. This process will make your programs locate the files that they need faster, thus making your computer run a bit faster (at least much better than before it was defragmented). I myself disregard this process when I was still in college. But when I was able to use it in one of the computers that I troubleshoot, it provided me a nice output. Have it a try for yourself.


USB disk security is one of my trusted software when it comes to protecting my computer against viruses and other malicious programs. It is a small program made by zbshareware, inc. Its resource usage on your computer is CPU-0.0%, memory – 0.0 mb, disk 0 k/s. It automatically scans any removable device inserted in your computer and scans it for viruses. One thing I want to clear out is that this software is not intended to replace the usual antivirus softwares that we often use like AVG, AVIRA or KASPERSKY. It can be used together with those AV that I mentioned. Here are its key features:

1. It guarantees 100% of protection from any threats via USB Drive

2. It is made for offline computers so regular update is not necessary.

3. Compatible with other AV software and does not slow down your computer.

4. Easy to use interface.

This software works for me until now, I recommend it to you all.


The first thing that came in my mind after reading this at yahoo is, "Is it really possible?" Well, technology had always had its leap when it come two inventing stuffs for us to mesmerize. Having read the article about this, i would somehow believe that it is really possible. Nokia mentioned that hopefully they can commercialize the technology in three to five years. This would be very much awaited by all phone users.

This episode is so great. Less talk more action. Im very much excited for the upcoming episodes... I'm just wondering on what side KUMA is fighting. If it would be on the marines side i 'm pretty sure the strawhat pirates is really gone for good. There was a part in the episode where KUMA whispered something to Rayleigh. You can wath the episode at www.youranimenow.com. ONE PIECE rules!


I always love playing PC games when I'm not working. Aside from having fun, it's a way i can be with my brother since we don't hung out that much because of my work and he is still a student. We usually play DOTA, counter strike , age of empires and star craft and battle realms. Playing with this computer games is really exciting. Yesterday, i happen to think of finding the most played PC game for the year 2008. I found out that the expansion to Blizzard's incredibly popular World of Warcraft MMO, Wrath of the Lich King was the best-selling PC games of 2008. Blizzard has always been known for creating popular and great PC games. Also inlcuded in the top 10 list are, call of duty: World at War, sims 2 apartment life and Warhammer Online: Age Of Reckoning (not in order).


Folder options is an important feature of Windows XP. It provides you with a lot of options regarding your file that will suite your needs. However, this feature is vulnerable to virus attacks. When a virus enters your computer it will disable you folder options and even though the virus is removed this option will sometimes still be not accessible to users. Here are the steps to return you folder option. Just make sure that the virus in your computer is properly treated before doing these steps.

1. Secure a copy of Quicksmash Software. You can easyly download it on the internet.
2. Restart your computer and go to Safe Mode.
3. Use the Quicksmash Software.
4. Restart your computer.

If these steps did not work for you or you want a more detailed step, please leave your comment here.




The computers you have seen above are not just perfect in appearance
but also outstandin in performance. It has been my dream to own those kinds of computer.
Some of its specifications are:

intel core i7 940 processor
6gb DDR3 Memory
EVGA X58 SLI motherboard
NVIDIA GTX 295 videocard
1000W corsair power supply
1TB digital HDD

With this kind of specifications, i really could not ask for more...


I and my brother love playing computer games like need for speed, call of duty, transformers and our latest computer game from the movie "UP". We always have lots of fun playing together, there's one more thing, i forgot to mention DOTA and Age of Empires. When i was still in 4th year college, i happen to study about the effects of computer games especially those violent ones to young users. And I would say it's not surprising to know that generally it does not do good for young users personality. As a whole computer games has a negative effect on young users.

Recently, i have downloaded a magazine and was surprise on an article i happen to read. It says that action-based video games can help adults improve their eye sight. This fact, caught my attention because just a month ago, my father who will be celebrating his birthday tomorrow is starting to like one of the computer games we are playing with my brother. As I read the article further, I was kinda surprise on the things i learned. "When people play action games, they're changing the brains pathway responsible for visual processing." said Daphne Bavelier a professor of brain and cognitive sciences at the University of Rochester.

Well, i guess i would encourage my father to play more of our video games but still i would limit him to only an hour of playing everyday... If you want to give your father a Fathers Day present tomorrow, why not give him a video game for a change....



If you have a mini note and you got a problem with its operating
system and you would want to reformat it. This tool fits your need. All
you need to have aside this software is a bootable xp cd (doesn't matter if
it's original or not) and atleast 2 gb USB flash disk. The software's user
interface is easy to understand but to save you from the burden of trial and
errors i have these instructions which worked for me.

Note: Your removable media and the xp cd must be all in their places now

1.)Format you flash disk by using the pressing the PEtoUSB button in
the right part of the interface. It will open another window just
leave the defaults and press start.

2.)After reformatting it. Just press the GO button in the right bottom
part. And thats it the files form your cd will be copied to your
flash disk.

Important: - Make sure that the mininote or your pc supports USB booting
and enable it during start up in the BIOS settings.
- If your hard disk is a sata drive change its setting to IDE
(IDE only setting) this will solve the problem if during the
installation process it will prompt that it cannot find your
drives.

I personally tried this software and it saved my day. So this will save
yours too, hopefully... ^_^


If you want a copy of this software. Comment here and ill e-mail you on the links.
Or just search for direct links. You can find them easily.

Actually, i am not an avid fan of ONE PIECE, that was 2 months ago. I also haven't watch its first episodes on TV. But since i have an internet in school i happen to drop by on one of its episode and here i am now, posting an article about this fantastic anime. Well, the character of luffy really can move mountains. It has been always my thought that we can learn a lot from anime shows, especially when it comes to friendship and pursuing your dreams. The latest episode as of now is Episode 404 entitled "The StrawHat Crew's Desperate Situation". If your an anime fan, you should watch ONE PIECE.

here is the link guys:

Since the time i am aware about viruses, this question had been in my mind until now. "What is the best antivirus software?" I have visited alot of sites that answered this question but their answers are diffrent. Some site would say that the no.1 antivirus software is KASPERSKY, some would say that it is NORTON, others say BITDEFENDER and their are also others who say AVIRA. Now, whose telling the truth?

In my perspective, their is really no such thing as best antivirus. I guess the name does not matter. The main thing that is important for antivirus softwares is regualr update. I have been fixing computer that are affected by viruses and all that i mention above where not able to stop it from entering in my clients computer. The main reason is that they were not able to update their antivirus software. There are still some user that uses complex antivirus software that surely would protect their compurter but lack the knowledge on how to use the antivirus properly, as a result the computer usually crashes.

The main point that i would like to stress here is that, the name doesn't count. As long as you know how to use your AV and updates it regularly, you will surely have a low chance of being infected by a virus. For myself, i use the free edition of AVIRA and everything works fine for me.
Please share you opinon regarding this topic.

Removing a virus in an infected computer system is not an easy task. Aside from the fact that you must have the knowledge on how to deal with different types of viruses you must also have the right tool to do your job effectively. The first thing that a virus will do to your computer is to disable you task manager and registry. This would make removing such viruses even more difficult and troublesome. Their are type of viruses that will restrict you from installing any anti virus software in your computer. Generally, these viruses can be removed by deleting them through your task manager. But then again, your task manager is already been disabled by the virus once it enters you computer.

This is where process explorer comes in. It is a utility that is use as a replacement for your task manager. With this software you can delete the malicious program that stops you from installing an anti virus software. You just simply determine where the program is and delete its process. After doing this you can now install your favorite anti virus software that will remove all other remaining viruses in your computer.

Since i am a computer science graduate, i often used different kinds of software that suites a specific need for me. For a long time i've been downloading softwares from different sites but majority of them only gives me a trial version of the software. I find it hard finding cracks and serials for the softwares that i downloaded. Last year, my brother introduced me to a site that he recently used to download stuffs for our computer. So i tried it and until now i am really greatly that my brother told me about the site. It provides you with all the softwares that you need from security to entertainment and mobile applications as well...the best thing here is that serials and cracks are included as you download the softwares. The site is www.dl4all.com. Try it and be mesmerized!!! Please leave your comments...thanks...
