How About a Free Anti Virus Program - 3 Reasons Why You May Be at Risk

By Richard Seng

Should I use a free antivirus program or a paid version? In todays world on the internet, we are always looking for a product or service that is free. However, when it comes to a virus protection, free is not always free.

Think about it for a minute. Why would anyone sit down on the computer and spend hours and hours of time to develop and maintain a software program and do it for free. There has got to be someone wanting to make money off of you some how or they could not continue with their activities.

In addition, many of the so called free programs do not have technical support. How would they be able to support technical help if they could not pay them. When you have a problem, you are going to want someone to help you.

Spyware – Many software programs that are free, have some type of spyware attached. If the maker or developer of the program is not charging you, then how are they going to make money. Spyware is attached to the program and your system may be tracked for advertisement purposes.

In some cases your system may be scanned for e-mail address or other information that you may not want to give out. Please be very careful with any free program you install on your computer.

Better yet, make sure you have a firewall, anti virus program and anti spyware program installed on your computer for all of your internet security protection.

Computer running slow problems

Author: chargvn


Is your computer running slow? Does it take 15minutes to boot up? Computers can get people so frustrated when they don't do what you want them to do, computers that run slow are basically useless.

There are many reasons why computer run slow...

Spyware! What is it? What does it do to my computer?

A simple definition of Spyware: a general term used to describe software that performs certain behaviors such as advertising, collecting personal information, or changing the configuration of your computer, generally without appropriately obtaining your consent first.

Spyware is often associated with software that displays advertisements (called ad ware) or software that tracks personal or sensitive information. The most common type of spyware is pop up banners that never stop! You close them, and they keep returning. Im sure we have all had this problem once. Spyware in a nut shell, basically makes your computer run really slow. Once a computer is infected, the software usually uses your internet connection to download more.

Your computer 'Hardware' can be the problem!


This is probably not the problem with your computer, but it has to be mentioned because it could be the problem. After you have deleted the spyware and removed the virus you may have, if your computer still runs slow, then it is time to take your computer to a qualified technician to see if you are having hardware trouble. Check to see if you have at least 512meg of memory. This is the recommended ram specifications for windows Xp, some older systems have 256meg of memory and this is not enough if you run multiple programs. If you are running the new Windows Vista, i would recommend at least 1gig (1024meg) of ram.

New updates in program improve PC viruses

Author: paulfinch

A few weeks ago, my anti-virus program expired, and I didn't really think twice about it. I had a couple of other adware and spam blockers, so I assumed I was safe.

Then last Tuesday, my computer completely crashed. There were 8 viruses on it that ultimately lead to me not even being able to load Windows.

I had to do a complete reformatting, and it literally took hours just to get my PC up and running again. Add to that, hours of reinstalling my software, and it was a good day or two working on it.

I'm a student at the moment, so I scoured the Internet looking for a reasonable anti-virus program. I read a lot of differnet reviews, from CNet to Pcmagazine.com, and they all pointed to Ad Patrol.

I decided to check it out and download it. It's incredibly fast and easy to install, and it seemed to be working in full effect within minutes.

I started getting asked certain security provision requests using the program, and contacted the help desk. They were especially prompt in getting back to me and very thurough in their answers.

If you're like me, and don't have a lot to spend, I'd suggest you check out Ad Patrol. Certainly gives me all the protection and security I could expect from an anti-virus program.

Bad SEOs? What about Bad SEO Clients?

Author: Lee Rummage

You hear all the time about bad SEOs. Bad SEOs are offering worthless services, failing to deliver on their internet marketing promises, polluting the search engine results?well, a lot of bad things. But how much ever gets said about bad SEOs' spiritual counterparts: bad SEO clients?

As an SEO, I can see things from the other side of the table. You see, despite trying hard to make it clear I'm a good, ethical, results-oriented, smarter marketing, white-hat SEO, I have gotten no end of inquiries from bad prospective SEO clients. Sure, no one who gets cheated is ever entirely to blame, and some cheated businesses are entirely blameless. But the bad SEOs would have too small a market to stay in business if it weren't for almost-as-bad clients.

Shades of Bad SEO Clients

First, let me make clear what I mean by "bad" SEOs. Bad SEOs are bad because they either do unethical things to get e-marketing results, or because they consistently fail to deliver results. A good SEO delivers results and does it without trampling over other people's rights (like submitting automated comments to their websites or trying to get good sites de-indexed).

A bad SEO client, in turn, is someone who will only be satisfied (albeit temporarily) with a bad SEO. Because they refuse to consider ethical web consultants or smarter marketing strategies, they are creating markets for the e-marketing charlatans and black-hats. There are two basic types of bad SEO clients: crooks and fool--oops, I mean, ethically challenged and judgmentally-challenged.

Ethically-Challenged SEO Clients

I haven't gotten so many inquiries asking for out-and-out unethical services. Still, I've been asked about blog-sp@mming software and other shady internet marketing tactics a couple times. A colleague shared this gem with me: "Have you thought about just scanning a book from the library and using it for web content? Or is that too high-risk?" (Seriously, someone asked him this.)

Of course, judging from the amount of comment sp@m and SEO-motivated hacking on the web, there is plenty of demand for this stuff.

Judgmentally-Challenged SEO Clients

A much larger group of bad SEO clients are simply those who insist on putting themselves in the way of fraud. Yes, that's right: I'm blaming the victim. Someone who goes looking for a $5 gold watch can't cry too long if the watch turns out to be fake or hot. With SEO, there are a few more nuances, but it's the same essential idea.

The overwhelming majority of these judgmentally challenged souls are private individuals whose only business is the business-in-a-kit variety. Yet they are also sometimes representatives of actual successful companies. The real businesspeople tend to be quicker to let their misconceptions go (after all, they can afford the real SEO alternatives), but not always. Let's look at some representative types of this group, straight out of my own inbox (note: these are inquiries from prospects, not actual clients).

1. Something-for-(Little More than)-Nothing Clients

Really, I tend to think these people should be in the ethically challenged group, but maybe that's just the remnant of my work ethic making me be mean There are actually two kinds of these clients:

- The ambitious but cheap client: "I'd like to get to the top of Google for the keyword, 'mortgage' so I can turn over $100,000/month in revenue. I can spend up to $1,000."

-The Adsense-is-my-business-plan client: you wouldn't believe the numbers of inquiries I get from people who only plan to make money off Adsense or other on-site advertising?they don't even have a plan for getting repeat traffic, nor do they have content to synergize with the SEO effort. By buying promotional services, they would essentially be buying advertising in order to make money off advertising?you see where that could be a problem?

Another way of looking at it: why wouldn't I just create a site myself and keep all the profit from my efforts? In fact, most SEOs do have their own project sites, which are often monetized by Adsense. The money we could otherwise get from Adsense is one very low baseline for pricing our services. Legitimate SEO clients are typically selling goods or services at a profit rate that works out to ten or more times what they could get from Adsense.

In addition to the greedy, I also see a few other kinds of less common, but still problematic prospective SEO clients:

2.SEO-Starry-Eyed Clients: "Search engine traffic is definitely the best way for me to get pet-sitting clients in my tiny Himalayan village."

3.The Little-Knowledge-Is-a-Dangerous-Thing Client: "Don't tell me about keyword research, content, anchor text, or natural linking strategy, just get me the PageRank (or links, keyword density, or whatever the fad is)."

4.Gullible-and-Not-Letting-Go Client: "I know of at least two services that will submit my site to thousands of search engines for $29.95. If you can't do that, I'll take my business elsewhere."

5.I-Will-Never-Trust-SEO-But-I'll-Consider-It-Anyway Client: "No one can guarantee a good search engine ranking so this is all pointless?I'll just go with that $29.95 search engine submission package someone just emailed me about. At least it's cheap."

In short, if you are going to find good SEO web consultants, you need: 1) realistic expectations; 2) a realistic budget; 3) solid information. Don't expect something for nothing, do a little reading, and it's much less likely you'll fall victim to bad SEOs.

Windows Vs. Linux

by JaguarPCWindows Vs. Linux Jaguarpc.com Web Hosting offers you the choice of Linux and Windows. Both Platform will work on any pc and are capable of powering of your website. Linux or Windows... Which one is best for you?

Please Note: One of the biggest misconceptions is that you have to select the same operating system for your hosting account that you use on your own computer. That is simply not true.

The operating system that you use on your computer does not need to govern your choice of hosting platform. All Jaguarpc.com PHP hosting packages come with FTP access and a wide range of web page publishing options. If, for example, your computer runs on Microsoft Windows, you are not obligated to choose Windows web hosting.

Both technologies are suitable for beginners, professional web developers, and everyone in between, but it is essential to choose the technology that is more suited to your style of web building. Each technology has its own distinct advantages for users.

Windows Hosting Microsoft should be your choice of platform if you plan on utilizing Active Server Pages or other Microsoft applications to design your web pages. This platform delivers reduced development time and better functionality for databases.

One of the main advantages for choosing the Microsoft platform is the ability to use ASP, ASP .NET, and Access databases to use in building your web site. ASP and ASP .NET provide a rapid, scalable, and efficient development environment to build your web site. These tools, along with MS Access will allow you to make your web site dynamic and interactive.

This platform is also a suitable alternative if you are developing static HTML based web sites, or sites that incorporate Macromedia Flash or other client-side scripting technologies.

We recommend you choose Windows 2003 as your hosting platform if you are using specific applications that require Microsoft Windows to run such as Access, ASP, ASP .NET, or Microsoft SQL Server.

Note: Microsoft FrontPage can be used on both the Linux and Windows platforms.

Linux Hosting Linux is widely considered to be the best operating system for web hosting servers. Characteristically reliable, stable and efficient, Linux has been proven in the most demanding web and mail server environments. If you plan to incorporate work that uses PHP, Perl or MySQL, Linux is the solution you should choose. Linux is also ideal for the kind of websites that display information as a brochure, in newsletter format or as data sheets. Linux works well for 'brochure-ware' sites that offer interaction via inquiry forms, online purchasing and other e-commerce functions.

Essential programs such as Microsoft FrontPage can also be successfully used with Linux technology. In fact, FrontPage Extensions are offered with Jaguarpc.com Linux hosting packages. Linux is an excellent operating system that is well suited to meet your web hosting needs. Additionally, there are a huge amount of free applications available on the Internet for Linux and it uses less hardware resources than Windows 2003.

The Easy Chair Millionaire - Online Money for Beginners?

Of course it's possible to make money online - very good money - and he knew that as well as I did. You see, my friend suffers from the same problem as many aspiring internet marketers do, namely information overload. The more information he is bombarded with, the more frustrated he gets; the more frustrated he gets, the less he does; the less he does, the more often he has to ask me whether it's possible to make money online in order to restore the faith.
Procrastination in internet marketing is deadly, and I truly believe that it stems from the wealth of information we're subjected to, e.g. money-making strategies, the plethora of "must have" software, computer jargon etc. This can cause the kind of frustration and desperation that leaves many beginners feeling lost and on their own. This is why so many newbies fail from the very start - because they succumb to the information overload and end up taking no action at all.

In order to generate and maintain enthusiasm in the newbie, one must deliver a clear system which shows how to make online profits, the internet equivalet of paint-by-numbers. The Easy Chair Millionaire meets these requirements. A recently released product, The Easy Chair Millionaire takes the newbie by the hand and walks them through a simple method in which to make hard cash online.

The genius of this product is that it throws everything else out of the window. The Easy Chair Millionaire has a simple system that almost anybody could find success with and, brilliantly, it is undoubtedly one of the quickest ways to make cash on the internet. You don't need to build a website, host a domain or dabble in that thing called HTML. All you need is a willingness to learn and the diligence to apply the methods. The techniques are so fast that you should be making money within a few hours of purchasing the product.

Perhaps most appealingly, The Easy Chair Millionaire is user-friendly. There is no assumed knowledge. And the creator of the product admits to being lazy!

The pro edition was selling at $39.95 and the elite addition can be sold at an low priced of $49.95. It usually retails for as much as $400.

With over 2000 channels at a one time only fee of $39.95, is the cheapest for the best quality that I have yet to see for computer satellite TV.

The price was not a problem for me. I paid with a smile hoping that this would be better than the Computer Satellite TV pro 2006. The computer satellite TV Elite edition is defiantly the way to go. I used it over the weekend and could never make up my mind what to watch.

Before I started to review the Computer Satellite TV 2006 Elite edition. I was checking into another software package. Its price is a one time fee of $150 I am still reviewing and will make a post when I am through. The offer states there are more sports channels along with football.

Tom’s Hardware Sold for $15-$20 Million

Tom’s Hardware Guide and its parent company TG Publishing have been sold to an undisclosed buyer for an undisclosed price. The deal will close later this month, said Omid Rahmat, CEO of Tom’s Publishing, in a letter to the Inquirer. The rumored price, however, is $15-$20 million.

Tom’s Hardware is an established news site for tech professionals that most geeks have encountered at least once - the network of sites (including versions in different countries - a total of 12 editions worldwide) reports 50M monthly pageviews and 5M unique monthly visitors.

PaidContent speculates that French B2B tech media company BestofMedia Group may be the buyer. The network was founded in 1996 by German Thomas Pabst, and the first site targeted a US audience. With those stats, it’s still a strong rival to modern tech blogs.

Gather Your Keywords to Improve Search Engine Positioning

We all do this - when we need to look something up on the Internet, we automatically fire up our favorite search engine. For many web surfers, their home page is already set to Google, Yahoo, or MSN. In that search engine we punch in a few words that relate to the information we need. Almost immediately we are overwhelmed with a batch of results. But how much of these results do we actually read through? The majority of web surfers scan through the first page or two, and perhaps even through page three. If a web site is positioned beyond page three they are basically out of luck. When web surfers punch in keywords related to your products and services, does your site come up within the first few pages of the search results? If it does, you're likely running a very successful business in which visitors come to you without much need to advertise.
Most web site owners haven't built their website with reaching search engine users as one of the site's goals. In this article I will pretend that you own a shopping web site called PrettyDresses.com. Your web site is very lovely, full of pictures of dresses in all the latest styles and trends. Anyone who has found your site is very impressed with the selection of products and beautiful pictures. But you ask yourself, why is your traffic so low? Why isn't anybody finding my site? What can I do? The answer is quite clear and the problem is quite easy to solve.

Almost without thinking, web surfers (more specifically web searchers) will pop open their search engine and type in something like 'evening gown'. As this is their first thought, it should also be yours. Does your web site contain the words and phrases that web searchers are using to find your products and services? Are those words found on your website many, many times, only a few times, or not at all?

On regular intervals search engines crawl the web, reading and collecting information on the sites they come across. As they come across your website, they look for what the most frequently used words are phrases are to determine just what it is that your web site is all about. The better your web site does at effectively using the phrases that are being searched, the higher up the list your web site will be displayed on web searches. If your web site's content does not match what is being searched, it will not be found. It is a simple as that.

It should be clear by now that you should be starting to put together a list of keyword phrases to include within your web site. This list should include your products and services and any related items. There are many people searching for dresses as you are reading these words. Do they all use the exactly same phrases - of course not. Your mission is to discover as many of these phrases as possible and which phrases or words are used most frequently. The list should be prioritized based on which words are used in searches most frequently.

Brainstorm. Sit and think about what your web site is really all about. Close your eyes and picture your website as a store with customers looking around. What are they looking for? What are they asking you for? "Excuse me, I'm looking for a...”

Think about which words relate to your products and services. What is another name for dress - a gown, evening gown, sun-dress, a cute black dress, etc.

Be sure to ask family and friends, and clients and associates. Which phrases or words might they use when looking for your products and services? You are soon to discover a pattern. The most commonly used search terms will start to emerge.

Which keywords do high end competing web sites use, that carry products and services that are similar to yours? Their research may save you some of your own.

Pretend to be different types of customers. Be a customer that knows exactly what they want and jot that down. Also be the customer that is just looking around, or looking for ideas. This second customer may use more generic terms, while the first customer may refer to specific items. What other types of shoppers can you pretend to be? What about a wealthy shopper versus a bargain hunter?

Are some of the words on your list often misspelled? If so make sure to jot down the incorrect spelling as well. Poor spellers also have money to spend.

Are your products or services focused on a specific geographical location? If so, be sure to jot down the neighborhood, quadrant, city, state, and even country. A visitor may not want to drive too far from home and may therefore search for 'dresses in south Dallas'.

Also be sure to include the different variations of your selected keywords - for example: dress and dresses.

Remember to keep a balance between keeping your pages readable by both visitors and search engines. An over-optimized page will include many, many keywords which will improve your positioning with search engines, but may sound like nonsense and unprofessional to a real human visitor. Don’t turn away potential customers after they’ve found you. Some search engines have been known to punish web sites that attempt to trick the system with keyword spamming on their web pages.

Now its time to get to work. Use these ideas in this article to optimize your web site's content. Be sure to include the words and phrases that your potential visitors have in mind. Don't forget about your web site's title and description meta tags, which are only read by search engines. With some hard work and careful analysis you'll be sure to see a lot more traffic in your future.

Amazing new Mac app

Say Hello to the brand new Sticky Windows 2.0

Sticky Windows is an application for Mac OS X Tiger which extends the tab browsing experience to the Desktop. Sticky Windows shrinks your windows into tabs when you drag a window towards the edge of your screen. Providing you with a completely clutter-free workspace. By clicking on the tab the user can show and hide the window.

The tab can be created by dragging a window on any side of the screen (more than one screen configuration is supported too). When the mouse reaches the margin of the screen a tab will appear.

To remove a tab, simply drag it away from the screen edge. If the window is not currently visible when the tab is dismissed, the original window is re-displayed on the screen.

What's new in version 2.0 (released on April 6th 2007) ?

- Tabs Types: "Manual" or "Automatic" - Tabs support drag & drop of files

- Completely new style and new visual effects to provide better use experience

- Completely new code base, more reliable and faster than version 1.x

- Universal App: works with Intel & PPC Macs

How does it work?

Sticky Windows keeps track of all the windows which are visualized on the Desktop, as soon as the user drag a window, and the mouse reaches the edge of the screen, Sticky Windows shows a tab corresponding to that window. Afterwards Sticky Windows "takes care" of the window and communicates to the Windows Server to show and hide it.

Is Sticky Windows CPU heavy application?
Sticky Windows has been designed to be light in CPU usage. You will seldom see it using more than 1% of your CPU. This is particular important for Powerbook/MacBook users that will be able to use it without worrying that it will drain their batteries.

Speed Up Your PC by Magic

By: Alexander Rodichev

Every time you experience a PC problem or slowdown, don't call the technician just yet. Try a little magic, and you will see your machine revived!

What do you usually do if your car stalls? I can tell you what I do: if kicking the tires and looking under the hood doesn't really help, I give up and call for a mechanic. If you are a little more technical than I am, you might try more things, and may even succeed in getting your car running. But what if it does not run as good as it used to, or stalls more and more often? I'd bring it to the shop to get it fixed!

What do you usually do if your computer hangs? I usually try pushing some keys and, finally, kick in the 'Reset' button. But what if your PC no longer runs as smoothly as it used to, or hangs up just in the middle of an important document or an exciting game? Is it time to call for a computer guru and spend some money for getting it fixed?

Not necessarily. With a bit of magic and a little help of a handy free tool you can quickly do miracles with your PC's performance!

Try a little magic on your computer. A single 'Reset' button will never solve all your problems completely, but a little free utility called Magic Speed will revive your PC to its original, brand-new like performance in just five easy steps. It will do its magic to clean up your PC and fix problems that prevent it from running smoothly.

With a computer, you are in a better position than you are with a car. Many computer problems don't come from hardware errors; after all, modern PC hardware is thoroughly reliable these days. Instead, these problems originate from software. Did you know that any time you press that 'Reset' button, there is a chance of data corruption? It's not that something is wrong with your hard disk; it's about Windows unable to finish a write operation that causes the corruption. This is easily corrected with software; all you need is a disk checkup. This is free, and you don't need a technician to do that; just a little magic and Magic Speed!

What if your computer does not boot Windows as fast as it used to when you opened the box? If you a technician check your system, he would probably tell you about the hidden start-up programs slowing down performance, unwanted tray icons eating up precious megabytes of memory, or even spyware plaguing your system. Run Magic Speed instead of calling a technician, and it will tell you exactly what is wrong with your PC, and fix it immediately - for absolutely free!

Thanks to its built-in licensed anti-virus engine, Magic Speed will detect and automatically clean known viruses and spyware programs.
