Every year I receive hundreds of hoaxes in my email, most sent along by friends or family, sometimes even by colleagues, all of them well meaning. Many talk about horribly damaging computer viruses that no antivirus can stop. These are all false, created by someone who enjoys generating mass panic and hysteria. In fact, very few forwarded warnings are legitimate.
Hoax writers prey on fear, and on the desire we all share to help protect those we care for.

BitDefender and Kaspersky, Norton and McAfee, which are worth it, which aren't
|
|
Question: Paul, I understand from reading PC World Magazine that the BitDefender and Kaspersky antivirus software are the world’s leaders. Is this true, and if so, why? I have only heard of them recently, and I had thought Norton and McAfee were pretty much the only choice to protect my PC. Who are these newcomers and where do they come from?

Question: Paul, I have been receiving popups for Win Antivirus Pro that tell me my computer is infected with spyware and no matter what I do, these popups keep on coming, even with a popup stopper installed. I am very frustrated with the situation and ready to chuck the PC out the front door. What can be done before I turn this late model technical wonder into a boat anchor?

Question: Paul, I am running out of harddisk (or harddrive, whichever is correct) space on my XP computer, and wondered what options are open to me? I’m not ready to buy a new computer yet, and wondered what could be done inexpensively? By the way, the message I am getting is “Low Disk Space”.

Securing Wireless at your home or business a MUST

Question: I have a wireless network in my home and I have been hearing a lot about securing a wireless network to prevent hackers (or my neighbors kids) from tampering with my wireless. How important is this to do? If so, how long does it take the average technician?

This site and its info was forwarded to me by a customer and friend in the Village, and I wanted to share it with you. Not only are there more terrorist attacks going on around the world than we hear about, but many of them are unrelated to us or any of our activities in the world.

Okay, so you upgraded to Internet Explorer 7 (or Windows update did it for you) and you miss having the File Edit View menu right there at the top of the screen. You can get it back, no problem.

Negative press about Windows Vista registry
|
|
I have been reading a lot of negative press lately on the Windows Vista registry and how insecure it is and how much personal information is stored there about the computer user, etc. Unfortunately, most people writing these articles are also failing to mention the fact that this has been the case since the inception of the Windows registry.

Manually updating BitDefender v10 from the command prompt
|
|
This article is what I would refer to as a specialized interest article, as most people who use the PC day to day would never feel the need to update BitDefender from a command prompt, especially given how it updates on its own, and how easy it is to update manually from the program itself. There are, however, reasons to update from a command prompt, and for that handful of very technical people out there, here you go:

I have been reading up heavily on the newest release from BitDefender, the replacement for the much loved BitDefender v10 in all its carnations. The new version goes by the handle BitDefender 2008, and seems to build on a lot of the things that made its predecessor great.
