Top 5 free antivirus software applications
Help my computer is infected with a virus !
I wish I had $1 for every time I heard one of my customers say that.
Computer viruses and spyware are unfortunately one downside of being part of the global Internet community.
The best way to avoid or at least minimise the chances of your PC getting a virus , is to install some anti virus software.

Here is my list of the top 5 free anti-virus and antispyware software packages available.

1. AVG free – this is my number one choice for Free anti virus software. It is simple to download and install . The program has a easy to use interface which enables you to perform a virus scan with ease.By default it is configured to perform a daily virus scan which I recommend all Internet users should do.It has daily automatic updates to ensure it knows to scan for the latest virus or worm that has been released on the Internet. Overall it is simply a great well designed antivirus application that I been personally using for the past 8 years without any major issues.

2. Avira Free Antivirus – This is my second choice in the free antivirus stakes. It also is easy to download and install. It has a nice interface and includes automatic daily scheduled virus updates and scans. The simple user interface makes scanning easy if you need to do a manual virus scan. One annoying g feature is after every update it displ

How to backup your computers files and photos automatically

February 2nd, 2010

How to backup your PC’s files,documents,photos,emails automatically.
Hands up who has lost important documents, tax records or pictures on their PC as a result of a Windows crash or a hard drive crash? If you have, its a terrible feeling (yes I have been there also)

Backups – You know they are important, but you just never get around to doing them. We all leave very busy lives these days and we all either simply forget or are just to plain busy to do a regular back every week!

So, it was with great pleasure that I came across a fantastic piece of free automated backup software called Syncback.
With Synback, you simply install it and you can schedule it to perform automatic backups every day/week/month.

It has a simple interface which is easy to setup and install. You can simply tell it which files and folders to backup, and then tell it where to back up (External hard drive, USB Flash Drive, CD-Rom drive etc) and how often and that’s it.

It is literally a set and forget program. And you have the reassurance that if the worst every happens, you will have a back of all your important files.

To download it simply go to CNET download.com and do a search for Syncback.

Fix slow running computer – Let me show you how

January 30th, 2010

How to make your PC run faster, if it is always running slow
One of the most simplest ways to get your PC running back to its normal self, is to limit the number of applications that are set to run on start up.
One of the main reasons why PC run slow, as there are too many programs set to run on startup, and if any of these programs runs slows or does not respond, it makes your entire PC ruin slow.

By following the below steps, you will see an improvement in the performance of your PC.

Click Start Run and type “MSCONFIG” and press enter
Click on the startup tab and click “Disable All”
Scroll down the “Startup Item” column and check the boxes that correspond to the names of your Internet Security,Anti Virus and firewall software.
Then continue scrolling through the list and check anything else that is “essential” to run on your Windows Start up.
Then click on “Apply”, “Close” and “Restart buttons when they appear.
When your PC reboots tick the “Don’t show this message again…” message box which appears.
Done!

You PC will now run faster than it did before as less programs are in your startup.

This is completely safe procedure and you can still access all of your programs via the usual way of Start->All Programs.

Any comments or feedback?
