I like to carry an Avira Rescue CD with me because it is one of the tools I use to clean up infected machines. I like it because:. 1 It is based on Linux (most of the machines I clean are Windows so having Linux scan it makes it a good defense). 2 Scanning while not booted to the Operating System that is infected increases the chance of being able to get the virus.

Recently I needed to delay starting up some services in Windows 200...

I know I do not like users pulling files down from disparate sites; but then it is OK for us right? Is one of those storage in the cloud solutions that could be deemed a security risk. It can also create more chatter on the local LAN if you have configured it for "Lan Sync" ( see this Link. I was trying to install Spiceworks. OK I am sorry!

I blog because I want to blog . Friday, November 25, 2011. So people ask me all the time: What laptop should I get? I don't know how many times I get asked this question - see title. Jeremy from GPANSWERS has this great article that I can now just send to people to read and I don't even have to do any work. Cool! It is funny though, and please read the whole article, that in the end he is in the process of buying a Lenovo Thinkpad which is what I have used now since the 1990's - why do I use a Thinkpad?

We all had to move the bindings around before, but I really have had not to change them in Windows 2008 Server before. I had a circumstance where I needed at least to look at them. Do you know how? I am sure Microsoft has a good reason to hide this from Administrators! Hello, we are not the users. Ctrl Alt Delete - what a byte! Here is...
