How To Keep Your File Safe



How to keep your information safe?
There is no reasonable way to keep files safe. This can be compared with information on fysical carriers. A piece of paper can burn in a fire. A picture can be stolen. These possibilitiess apply to a computer too. And an usb stick can get lost easily. And since computers get smaller and lighter, like the iPad, the possibility to loose the computer and with the computer the files in the computer gets bigger.

A way to make the possibility to keep a file safe is to make a lot of copies of the file. These copies can be stored on different media. Possibilities are a cd, a dvd, a hard disk, an external hard disk, a backup computer, a server and a website that offers a file storage service.

These different objects can be placed in different fysical geographical locations. This minimalizes the possibility the information gets lost by a fire, a disaster, a storm, a huricane, a flood, overflowing of water, a loss of electricity, burglary, theft and human mistakes.

A back up in the way of a copy of the original file on the same hard disk is no back up. This applies too when the copy and the original file are located in different parts of the hard disk. If the computer and the hard disk crash the original file might not be accessable anymore. But the same happens to the copy of the original file. So the original file and the back up get both lost.

Another possibilitiy is to store printed versions of the file or the picture. These printed copies should be kept in different places from the digital storage media.

So the possibility to keep information available is the biggest when different copies are kept on different media in different locations.

Youtube Hackers



It seems a lot of people on the Youtube loose their channel. Some ways frauding people use is sending a message the person is chosen to become a partner of the Youtube. All the person needs to do is to prove that the person is the owner of the channel. This can be done by sending a message back telling the user name and the pass word. Another way is the use of a false website. The website looks completely identical with the website of the Youtube. When somebody logs into the website the information is sent to the thief. A very hard way to detect is used by people who get friends with users of the Youtube. Once they get to know the emailaccount of the user they use the secret question to open the email account. This email account is used to get the pass word of the channel of the Youtube. Probably there are more ways but these ways are used a lot lately. So please beware and keep your information to yourself.

Having Trouble with a slow computer or cluttered desktop?

You should never have your desktop clutter. It usually only takes a few seconds to go through your programs to find what you need. Regardless, if you need to clean it simply go through your Add/remove program utility (XP) or uninstall/remove (Vista) in order to take off unnecessary programs from cluttering your desktop and program files.

After finishing those you will hit your "START" button and go to "All Programs" then "accessories" click then on "System Tools"

In this folder it gives you TWO tools to help clean your C:\ drive, the Disk Cleanup and Disk Defragment. NEITHER WILL HURT YOUR COMPUTER!

Both of these once done will prompt you if you want to continue based on what is check marked. 9/10 times you will find that the internet files or temp files you wont need on you. Those replicate things like your history or your recently visited areas.

Any questions you can feel free to ask :)

Mcafee Update Shuts Down Xp Run Computers


THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR THOSE WHO HAVE MCAFEE!!!!



Well I think I am glad that I move to PC Tools since it seems a lot of people on XP run computer got nailed big time by a McAfee Security Suite update litterally shuts done your computer. Well the article is self explanatory and so if you feel your computer has been affected by this, then read the article as it is updated to let those know the current situation. As for the current update the only fix out there is for those who have not updated their computers yet and so those who are still affected by this problem will have to wait it out a bit longer.

ARTICLE!!


i would suggest all to Google PC tools/spyware doctor

Trusted Antivirus software:

AVG
Avira
Avast
Zone Alarm
Symantec

*All of these have a free version that works extremely well.
*Zone alarm and symantec may make you pay.

If your antivirus is not on my list of trusted software i suggest you get rid of it and find one that is on here. The reason behind this is that mcafee and norton and others are well known for there lack of protection against worms and trojans which can be very harmful towards your computers welfare.

Tips: Never open an email attachment that is insecure, or you have no idea where it came from.
At least once a month use your disk cleanup utility (Can find it in the previous post by myself) and the defragmentation utility.
Never authorize anything that you do not recognize; just because it says that it is needed to connect to the internet that is not always truthful.

Internet Connection Sharing With Xbox 360 And A Laptop For Windows XP (possibly Vista



Supplies:
Laptop connected to internet
Xbox 360
Ethernet Cable (comes with Xbox, can use any other though)

1. First, have your xbox turned on. Also have your PC on, since this next part is all with the computer. This will probably work with a wired connection as well (but you could probably just hook straight up to your router or modem then), but here it is. First go to start and go into your control panel. Switch to classic view by using the link in the top left corner of the window. Find Network Connections and open it.

2. You should see a "Local Area Connection" (unconnected, this is for the connection to the Xbox) and your internet connection (mine is called "Wireless Network Connection"). Connect the ethernet cable to your laptop and to the back of the 360. Enable the "Local Area Connection". After it is completely connected, disable your internet connection, in my case "Wireless Network Connection". Once is it disable, right click the internet connection and click properties. Go to the Advanced tab and check off "Allow other network users to connect through this computer's internet connection." Allow this to finish, it may take a little bit. Once it is done, your internet connection should say shared next to the status of the connection.

3. Enable your internet connection. Once it is fully connected, right click the "Local Area Connection" and click repair. Allow that to finish. On your Xbox, find the system panel and navigate through it until you find "Test Connection to Xbox Live". Test the connection. If it works, congratulations, you don't need this next part. For some, at this point, they get a DNS error. There are a number of ways to fix this. None of them worked for me however (at least on the places I looked). So I found my own way. If my way doesn't work for you, then you can search in google for it and you should get a number of other troubleshooting tips.

4. You must have a connection to a router. If you have a wired connection to a modem, then I don't know what is the problem. In order to be able to navigate the internet again you need to disable the "Local Area Connection" and then repair the Internet Connection (follow steps above to enable everything again once you are done). Go to http://192.168.0.1 . You will be asked for a login. On most routers it is:
Username: admin
Password: (no password)

If this does not work, look up the login information for you router model. Once logged in, you must find where your DNS server IPs would be listed. I only have specific information for my router, so if you can't find it, look up where to find the IPs on your router model. My router is a D-Link DI-514. On the left side-bar, Wizard should be highlighted. On the top bar, click Status. Under WAN you should find DNS IPs. Manually input these into your Xbox (rather than have it find them automatically) and test your connection again. At this point it should be working. Any other errors can be search for online. I just felt that this specific one should be mentioned, because all the fixes available (AFAIK) did not work for me.

Hopefully this helps :)

13. sometimes it helps to keep the on/off button down for 2 minutes when the battery is removed.
14. unplug the computer, open the computer, unplug all components from the main board and remove all components.
15. attach to the main board: the processor, the processor cooler, the power unit and the cables to the speaker, on/off button and the button to reset the computer.

25. these steps are ment to help to find out what component causes the problem.
26. use a structured way of working to skip the possible problem causer 1 by 1.



If your computer isnt functional... Start from the basics... Ram ... Try shifting it..

1 beep = Normal computer startup....

If u hear a constant beeeeeep its the graphic card tht has a problem...

If u hear a beep beep after evry 1 or 2 seconds.... Ram problems...

If u hear no beep but your computer powers up.... It could be your cpu... It may need to be replaced or just cleaned and stick back in...

@highlite...check out a company called pctools. they have a pretty good antivirus program called spyware doctor. They also have a few registry tools. They do have free versions but only remove certain parts of the virus(s) or registry errors till you purchase the full version. The name of the registry product i have is called performance toolkit but they make other versions. So check them out
