badzvenom I am using Intel and I would rather choose Intel coz I find its specifications better than its AMD equivalent.

badzvenom I think hibernating has a little problem compared to switching off the computer. When the computer is switched off, you are assured that when you switch it back on, start-up programs are loaded properly. The problem with hibernating (at least to my knowledge)...

I both installed anti-viruses AVG and AVIRA on my PC. At first I thought it can really work together but later on I noticed that they are competing. While AVG is scanning, when AVG found a virus, AVIRA will interrupt and portrays...

badzvenom I think it is part of the business strategy not to allow ones product (anti-virus) to be installed when anther anti-virus has been installed already. In fact many products have this feature, and tells you to uninstall the other anti-virus if you intend to use...

Most antivirus softwares are independent, but selfish as well because they don't want other antivirus software to run by their side. I mean if you install an antivirus, you can't install another one because a conflict will occur....

Already tried the usual suspects; Firefox, Chrome, IE, etc. Looking for something with an incredibly low CPU footprint that'll run nicely. Used to use K-Ninja for these purposes, but apparently that's not around any more. Any...

badzvenom With the power of the processors or the system as a whole nowadays, I don't think cpu usage is a big problem. Besides I can't seem to find a browser that has a really low cpu footprint. As the browsers increases in its features, I think the more that it uses...

Such as some people don't know the different between spyware and virus. they think both r same. spyware and virus r not the same thing. virus will distroy ur hardware. but spyware just collect info of ur PC and send them in a Web...

badzvenom You are right in saying that virus is different from spyware, as it is also different from trojans. However, nowadays it seems that the term virus is becoming a generic term to include all other computer security threats, although the term malware is used by...

badzvenom Thank you for the response. It sounds like you are critical of the updates released by Microsoft. I just hope that Microsoft would never put anything on the updates that would ultimately crash our systems which are using authentic or pirated Windows XP.

badzvenom Thank you for your response. I would like to post the comment of one of friends for your reaction. He is saying that as long as I have updated antivirus and/or software firewall, I can just turn off the automatic update of windows. Is this a valid claim? What...

badzvenom I think that is the weak point of some antivirus. It doesn't heal infected system files, but rather gives you the option to quarantine or delete it. I think avast has this feature to create a database of system files so as to restore such file when infected...

badzvenom I agree with the suggestion of MdImranHossain. Delete the Autorun.inf from your drive cause this file is modified by a virus which could be the cause of the problem you encountered. Not all computer troubles should be corrected by re-installing or...
