Viruses
A virus is a program that gets on your hard drive and deletes programs. One will also lock up files. Some will delete your passwords. Every virus does something different. Some viruses have weird names such as groovier, Jack the Ripper and tequila. The way the viruses are made is through programming computer programs such as COBOL, basic, c, and, Java. You should be careful when you download something from the Internet because it may have a virus. Opening E-mail can also transfer viruses. You should have an antivirus program on your computer. One example of a network antivirus program is LANDesk. Two of the more popular personal programs are McAfee and Norton. One bad virus is Sunday-1 On Sundays; the virus displays the following message: "Today is Sunday! Why do you work so hard? All work...

Back up your computer
It’s an essential task for any computer user, but it’s also pretty intimidating for most. Here’s a simple guide to backing up the data on your computer There are many reasons why you should back up your computer—possibilities of hard disk corruption or crash due to malicious programs or technical faults, accidents such as fires or thefts, and so on. However, for most users, a ‘backup’ is either inessential or too technical. It needn’t be either of these; here are guidelines you could follow to make backing up a routine task.What to back upYou should back up data that cannot be replaced easily, balancing this with the need to keep backup sizes within reasonable control. If you have hundreds of gigabytes of music, it may not be possible to back up all of it within reasonable costs.You could...

Mobile users beware! Hackers are on the prowl
Mumbai: With India adding almost 8 million cell phone subscribers per month - and SMS being the largest-used service - hackers find wishing a great tool to target gullible users. Rakshita Kolaskar (name changed) was pleasantly surprised to receive a SMS recently, announcing her as the winner of a $3 million (around Rs 12.5 corer) prize from the Shell International Mobile Draw. The message prompted her to mail her claim and asked her to call an international number. However, when her excitement died, she tried hard to recall if she ever used any Shell product or service, as the SMS...
Browse safely in a cyber café
Some ways to protect your identity and your data on a public terminal Public computers, like those found in cyber cafés, hold two types of risks. First, you don’t know what programs are installed on the computer; so there’s a very real danger from malicious programs like key loggers or spyware that can capture your keystrokes to figure out passwords and other confidential information or monitor your browsing behavior. Second, over-the-shoulder peeping can enable others to find out your passwords. Moreover, you have to be extremely careful about protecting your privacy on such terminals, since you don’t know who will use the computer after you. Here are some tips to keep yourself safe while using a computer in a cyber café (or an airport or hotel). Always log out: While checking mail,...

Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a short range wireless digital communication technology. It was developed as a low cost, low power way of removing many of the data wires between devices. This concept is called a PAN or Personal Area Network. The Scoop Bluetooth can remove the wires from your printer allowing your computers or PDA to print directly to it wirelessly. It can remove the wires from your mouse, your joystick, your digital camera and can replace the cradle you drop your PDA into to synchronize your calendar. On an even more personal level, it can remove the wires between your cell phone and a hands-free headset. Then there is the mobile Internet aspect. Why not push IP over this digital communication channel? Using a digital cell phone with Bluetooth and a Bluetooth PDA, you can wirelessly surf...
Intel vs. amd???
I believe you are going to buy a dual core processor. The main competition exists between Intel Core2 Duo and AMD Athlon X2. Intel Dual Core (not Core2 Duo) is crap and you should not go for it. Until recently, Intel was unable to compete with AMD. But with the advent of Core2 Duo Processors Intel is giving good fight to the increasing market of AMD. You can buy processors starting from Rs.3000/- to Rs.20000/-. Now it all comes up to the investment you are going to make. If you can afford to buy best motherboard and the best processor, you would be spending a huge sum of money on something that you won’t really need at this point of time. So find out what motherboards are available in the market (company +model name) and processor options you have. I would personally suggest you to think...

Tips for Buying A 4gb USB Hard Drive
A 4GB USB hard drive often finds itself far from the discussion when it comes to removable hard drives. Removable hard drives are incredibly useful for anyone who owns a computer, but many people have skewed views as to what is possible with them. While it is always a good idea to back up your entire computer on a large capacity drive, some people simply do not want or need to, or they do these tasks less frequently than others. Some people do not feel the need to back up all of their files on a super frequent basis, while others feel that they do not want the size and bulk or a large external hard drive.Other people simply want the portability and convenience of being able to move large files from one computer to the next with no issues whatsoever. Either way, a 4 GB USB hard drive can be...
