cmdr001 What can I say... people are getting more clever. The limitation is not on the machine, is on who programs these things. As people get ideas, the captchas and whatnot will be overcome. For example, those maths question. If I knew that a site is constantly...

hey guys. do you know this "autorun" that keeps showing up on your folder? is this a virus or some sort of thing?is it harmful? how do i get rid of this?

5 responses

cmdr001 Don't be ignorant. You clearly have no idea how autorun files work nor the threat they can be away from the naked way. First of all, disabling the Autoplay feature won't delete autorun files, not hide them. Autorun files aren't made automatically anyway,...

I have been deciding between netbook or a notebook! I wanted something small and mobilize! Netbook was my option, then I came across the spec that saying it can't be multi-tasked due to its atom processor! I'm wondering not be...

cmdr001 Like I said, and I quote the word I used "Weaker", therefore it's a relative term that's connected to the fact that desktop CPUs and even those of other laptops are superior in terms of processing power. I didn't implied at any point that they were not...

hi friends please suggest me in selecting one of these processors. "intel p4" or "core 2duo" or "atom". i need for home purpose and to browse net so please suggest me to choose which of these.

cmdr001 It'd just like to comment on the power consumption part because that number is a bit relative. Monitor excluded, because it's a large variable (CRT, LCD, etc), you can get ordinary desktops with even Dual-Cores, modest VGA, 4 sticks of RAM, 2 hard disks and...

cmdr001 It's interesting to see people mentioning "Good firewalls". Now, I don't really have any idea of how well versed in IT you are, but, if you are an expert in the field you'll know that a firewall only needs to be "so good" and that's usually less than what...

cmdr001 There is the chance, but you'll actually have to look at your motherboard's manual (Or tell what is the motherboard and we'll have a look). I actually had back a while ago exactly the same plan. Grab a Core 2 Duo, stuff it in my P4, and pronto! An upgrade...

cmdr001 "Heavy user, go for advanced like Intel atom" "choose processing speed more than 2.5 ghz" What!? Do you even realize where the Atom stands? I mean, your statement contradicts itself. Atom CPUs are -not- for heavy use even though they are recent...

I used to go with zone alarm firewall but now I just use Windows firewall since it's already integrated. Do you think it's good enough?

firewall

cmdr001 Since when is a firewall meant to defend against virii? There are several forms of virus and trojans that are meant to disable Windows' native (crappy) firewall, but it's not like the firewall was ever meant to stop them.

With mininova almost gone, which sites will you rely on for your torrents. I need movie and softwares. I am currently using isohunt. But it is not that good. Can you recommend me some other sites. P.S. - Do not mention those...

cmdr001 Learn to type. I mean, seriously. It's -BitTorrent- !! You ended up linking to some site that tries to prey on people who understand nothing about the BitTorrent protocol and think they are about to get aboard something awesome... for a price; on a...

cmdr001 Contrary to what you may think, it's the people who turn off their systems who's the rarest. At least, these days; 10 years ago I'd have probably agreed with you. The internet has become such a streamline of information and communication network that people...

I'm lucky enough to have flatrate so I don't have to pay for bandwidth. I use torrents a lot and it's always running on the computer even when I'm not there so at least 2GB a day. I didn't have internet connection at home for...

cmdr001 Yes, and like I said, you could be downloading 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 4 weeks per month, at peak speed, and if your download speed was only 256Kbps you couldn't possibly even make 100GB/month, so you obviously have a faster access than that.

cmdr001 *cough* You obviously either have more than 256Kbps, or those 500GB (Gb?) are definitely an exaggeration, since with that speed, at constant top rate, for 24 hours a day, 30 days a month, you wouldn't break the 90GB mark.

cmdr001 Of course, but tell me however, those zero cost proxies; how fast are them and what are their limitations? Can you download at several Mbps through them? Do all of those proxies allow you to bounce to IRC? Do they allow you to direct Bittorrent traffic...

I'm sure we all have lived through those situations where people just plain and simply seem to find their way to dodge questions, sometimes because they don't want to say a solid "Yes.", other times because they don't got an...

cmdr001 First of all, pardon for the delay in the response. About the length of the post, well, it was all about unwinding. Some situations have been happening to me lately that just built up, built up and built up, that I blew... not only in making the post but...
