Malware
November 12, 2009 by mike · Leave a Comment
Malware (malicious software) may be considered any software designed to infiltrate or damage a computer system.
The expression is a general term used by computer professionals to indicate a variety of hostile, intrusive, or annoying software or program codes. In law, these types of software are sometimes known as a Computer Contaminants.
Software is considered “malicious” based on the perceived intent of the creator rather than any particular features.
Malware includes computer viruses, worms, trojan horses, most rootkits, spyware, dishonest adware, and other surreptitious and unwanted software.
Some malicious programs contain routines to defend against removal: not merely to hide themselves, but to repel attempts to remove them. For example, the software starts a number of processes which monitor one another and restarts any process which is killed off by the operator.

Anti Virus Software

Up-to-date Anti Virus software is crucial to maintaining a clean, safe computer.
Important Security Steps:
- Create a hard-to-guess personal password, and change it often (every 30 days is best).
- Never open an e-mail attachment unless you expect it, recognize the attachment name and document type.
- Avoid opening e-mail messages with confusing, misspelled or nonsensical subject lines.
- Configure the computer operating system for automatic updates.
- Turn the computer off when not using it.
If you become infected with a virus…
- Immediately disconnect the computer from the network.
- Run a complete computer scan using good anti virus software.
- Attempt to remove all viruses, worms and other malicious software found.
- After removing infections, reconnect computer to the network.
- Download all recommended operating system and application updates/fixes.
Did you just receive an attachment in email and you’re not sure who sent it, or what it is? Don’t open it!
When visiting a web site, did you get a pop-up asking if it’s ok to install some software you’re not sure of because you’ve never heard of it? Don’t say “OK”!
The rule is “If You’re Not Sure, Don’t Do It”.
If you are faced with a suspicious popup, don’t click ok and don’t click cancel (either of which can prompt a download). Close the window from the Task Manager.
Not sure about some security warning you’ve been given? Don’t ignore it.
Mac users in the past have not been exposed to the same threats and attacks as PCs. Because Apple’s market share was so small, virus and spyware authors got little publicity or financial gain from infecting the Mac, but that has changed with Mac’s rising popularity.

Rootkit
November 12, 2009 by mike · Leave a Comment
“Rootkit” is a term applied to cloaking techniques and methods applied at the “Root” (Administrator) level of a computer. A successfully installed rootkit allows unauthorized users to act as system administrators, and take full control of the compromised system.
Most anti-virus and malware removal tools are ineffective against this villain.
In general, rootkits limit themselves to maintaining control of one system, whereas a computer virus attempts to spread to other systems. A program that automatically scans and exploits network vulnerabilities is referred to as a computer worm.
These insidious programs invariably leave a “backdoor” often called a trojan horse to capture passwords and facilitate future logins. A root shell is often simply bound to port 31337 (“ELEET” in cracking jargon). Trojans are the core of rootkits.
Although all rootkits are serious security concerns, the kernel rootkit is especially dangerous because of its difficulty of detection. It operates at the same level as the operating system, and can modify or subvert any request made by software on the running system. In a situation such as this, the system itself cannot be trusted.
Since the task of reinstalling a “clean” OS is almost trivial, most experienced administrators consider it impractical to try and dig out a rootkit.

Computer Store

An online Computer Store can offer you significant savings.
There are computer stores that offer “refurbished” machines which are those returned for whatever reason, sent back to the manufacturer, checked-out, repackaged, and resold for maybe half price. You may also be able to find discontinued models.
For the average home user who doesn’t care about this years bells, whistles, super-duper processors, and bigger disk storage, these computers can be the answer. Use the hundreds of dollars saved for a mp3 player, games, or a comfortable desk chair.
Here are the newest computers. Prices taken from Best Buy.

Best Computer 
The Best Computer for you should provide you with enough computing power and speed for your needs. Computer memory, for instance can be expensive and loading your computer with extra will increase the cost without providing any extra benefits.
Any power and memory intensive processes, like computer games, video editing, etc., will usually require more “umph”.
When shopping for the “best computer” for you, begin by accessing your needs for the present and the future; always cognizant of the fact that computing power double about every 2 years or so.

Cheap Laptop Computers
November 7, 2009 by mike · Leave a Comment
Cheap Laptop Computers are the computers of choice for millions of businessmen, scientists, students, and people on the go in general. Refurbished and used laptops offer big savings to shoppers.
Notebook computers are capable of many of the same tasks that desktop computers perform, although they are typically less powerful for the same price.
They contain components that are similar to those in their desktop counterparts and perform the same functions but are miniaturized and optimized for mobile use and efficient power consumption.
Cheap laptop Computers usually have liquid crystal displays and use SO-DIMM (Small Outline DIMM) modules (rather than the larger DIMMs used in desktop computers)for their RAM. In addition to a built-in keyboard, they may utilize a touchpad (also known as a trackpad) or a pointing stick for input, though an external mouse or keyboard can usually be attached.
Many people just like the compactness and mobility of these machines, and the ability (with wireless) to carry them from room to room and even enjoy work and play outside on the deck, by the pool, or in the garage.
Cheap Computers can be new, discontinued models, refurbished machines, or simply “last year’s favorites”.
Cheap computers that are “refurbished” are those returned for whatever reason, sent back to the manufacturer, checked-out, repackaged, and resold for maybe half price.
For the average home user who doesn’t care about this years bells, whistles, super-duper processors, and bigger disk storage, these computers can be the answer. Use the hundreds of dollars saved for a mp3 player, games, or a comfortable desk chair.

Computer Services
November 7, 2009 by mike · Leave a Comment
Computer Services will be needed by every user, sooner or later.
If the computer is inoperable, immediately contact the manufacturer’s computer services repair tech-support phone line.
Don’t Panic, turn the computer off, wait two minutes, then turn it back on, check for loose cables, and update and run your antivirus program.
Many times a simple “reboot” will clear up whatever was causing the problem.
Newer operating systems have upgraded the troubleshooting features on their Help systems with quizes on what’s going wrong, then suggest a solution.
The operating systems often provide a button or link in the error box to get further help, either from your PC’s Help system or from the Internet.
A solution can often be found in “Help”. From Start, select Help, then Search, type in “error,” and look through the options listed to see if any match your problem. Often, one-time errors go away if you merely shut down your open programs and then reboot the machine.
If you have bought a new computer and components are missing from the box, immediately pack up the computer, take it back to the store, and demand an exchange. Something missing from inside the box suggests the computer may have been returned because of a problem. Demand a full replacement.
If your computer is still under warranty, it may be replaced with a later model instead of repaired.
