I think I was 15 years old when my computer got its first virus. I remember it and I laugh now, not because of the trouble that it caused me (lost homework assignments; some of them even ready to be submitted), but rather because of the comment my dad made. “Wow, even those things catch a cold. Technology nowdays…” It was so funny. Well, I was thinking about it the other day and you know what? I don’t think that even today, decades after I got my first computer virus, that my dad knows what a computer virus is. In fact I think that most of the computer users in the world don’t really know what a virus is.  Of course many people will get up and start criticizing and saying that a computer virus is “a computer program designed to corrupt files, destroy hardware and in general cause harm”. But seriously, if my computer is infected with a computer virus again, I will most likely treat it (or curse it) like a real living thing. Anyway, many of us know what the cure or protection is against viruses: have an antivirus program handy. And many of us spend an enormous amount of money to protect our computers, and at end of the day ourselves and our lives really, from computer viruses.

However, as I just mentioned, antivirus software programs are quite expensive, so not everybody can afford them. And not only that, but there are many types of “viruses” or more accurately malicious software out there and sometimes one software alone cannot protect you from all of them. For most of us, we cannot just go out there and buy 10 different software programs to protect our computers. Well for all of you guys that want a cheap solution for protecting you computer and your data, and decreasing tremendously the risk of identity theft, here are a few free software programs, which most importantly really work. In fact most of the software programs that I recommend here have been ranked comparably with their expensive competitors.  Read more...

Many of our day to day activities are dependent on computers. Most people cannot afford to have a malfunctioning computer. And no matter what methods of prevention you do to stop your computer from malfunctioning, it cannot be avoided. When this happens, you have a few choices to either have it repaired through an online computer repair company, by manually hauling the computer into your nearest computer repair shop or having a computer repair technician visit your home.

If you are confused on which methods are better, it is always best to compare the benefits of each type of computer repair saving you money and time.

The most common way to fix a computer involves hauling your computer down to the nearest repair shop this method is the most time consuming and physical constraining. When a computer technician goes to your home or office, this is considered as onsite computer repair.  This type of repair is usually best when the issue is a hardware problem since they can personally inspect the malfunctioning parts. The biggest disadvantage is that it is the most costly. The technician has to spend time driving to your home and in some case back to the repair shop and back again, most technicians are charged by the hour so this method would be the most expensive, onsite repairs may take longer for the repair as customers must wait until a technician is available to drive to your home and even longer if the repair requires the computer to be taken back to the office, then finally bring it back home provided that the technician has time to fix it right away or if there are no other customers waiting.  Read more...

Gadgets are the kinds of things that you would use when you want to control people temporarily.  For example, instead of just straight damaging something, you can control them which will give you more time to do more important things.  If you find that you may die if you go head-to-head with your enemies, stunning them and using gadgets will give you an edge and hopefully provide a way to shift the odds into your favor.
