  1. a great website that offers a free spyware scan & cleanup.

    Every computer will have “vulnerabilities” and “cookies” which aren’t a huge concern.

    #1 – click the link

    http://housecall.trendmicro.com

    #2 – click the spyglass picture or the “scan now. Its free”.

    The program will bring up a new screen.

    Click the “I agree” box & then click the Launch Housecall Button

    #3 – The program will then prompt to use either Java or browser – choose the Java

    Your security will then ask if its ok to run the program – click Run

    #4 – It will then ask if you want to scan the complete computer or just a folder – click to scan the whole computer

    The program will then chug away for 5-30 minutes & when done will show a list of issues. As I mentioned

    Everyone will have cookies, it’s the adware, spyware, malware that I want to eliminate

    #5 – The program will allow you to choose what to do with each problem (fix/delete/do nothing) and then click the button at the bottom to proceed with your choices.

    also, do you defrag the hard drive weekly? defraging will help speed things up

    check your browser for 'add ons' (search bars, other nonsense things, they slow things down)

  2. Well, I turned my computer on this am

    and a dos window opened and says this

    C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe

    M:\>net use /delete y:

    There are open files and/or incomplete directory searches pending on the connect

    Ion to y: .

    Is it OK to continue disconnecting and force them closed? (Y/N) [N]:

    this computer is on a network

    is somebody snooping on my computer? over the net?

    this never happened before

    But I have noticed this past while that things on my M: have been 'different'

    any ideas?

  3. So, I just bought an iPod nanno, and I've already messed things up.

    As I was charging it I have no clue how to use it and I pressed one of the buttons and it changed the language to dutch but I want it in english.

    How do I change it back to english, will restore do it?

    I don't care about what is on it that will get lost.

    The computer that itunes is on has shabby internet access at the moment.

    thanks

  4. I've got a question for wireless networking

    I've got a belkin router

    and a belkin adaptor

    both on pc's both with windows xp

    1) would you use the belkin utility to run the wireless network or would you let windows run the network?

    I am having a terrible time getting things to work properly.

    2) How do I find out the 'computer names' ?

  6. I have a video camera that I want to put the videos on to my computer, but the software that came with the camera (video recorder) doesn’t work properly (I just can’t get it to work properly)

    Does anybody know of a good program I could use? Free? That’s not cumbersome to use?

    thanks

  7. temporarily, I have 2 computers in my home, one hi speed internet connection. I want to share the internet connection, but I don't want to buy a router. I have a d link 10/100 fast ethernet switch, can I hook this up to the two computers and share the internet connection?

  8. this is late, if you don't have it fixed yet this is what you do

    at the bottom of this screen, the orange RSS botton, beside that there is the language button, change that to english
