In its simplest terms a virus is a disruptive computer code period!
A computer virus almost always repeats itself and spreads by attaching itself to other files. Viruses can be made to host a number of harmful things on any computer from disrupting files to crashing networks. It can even be laying dormant, without you knowing it's there and then attack when least expect it, like right in the middle of downloading a large file or typing
a long report.
It can even be made to open at a certain date, sitting like a timebomb until it's time arrives. As you can see it can be annoying at the very least.
I do not want go into all the different types of viruses here because there are so many and more are being made everyday in some dank basement by the Dark Lord.
However, since so many viruses came from unknowingly opening e-mails I would like to mention some basics here:
Never open e-mail attachments unless you know for sure who it's from and that it's safe.
Some mail programs will even ask if you trust the attachment and if you're sure this you want to do. Your computer software can also scan attachments for viruses.
The danger is that when the attachment is opened the virus can attach itself to your hard drive and damage files. Not only that, it can search your saved e-mail addresses and send itself out to your friends, business partners and whoever is on the list, masking the message to look like a legitimate one from you. It will probably have an attachment
too and when opened will infect other computers.
Many people like to download music, video, games or other programs from different sites. If it is a site you dealt with before and trust it may be safe ok, but if you're not sure you can always run a virus scan on the download before installation. (You will need to check the anti- virus program that came with your system on procedures). This
security measure is necessary because some downloads may contain virtues, spyware or adware – these last two can collect personal information, note
your browsing habits and spam your e-mail with unwanted ads. Some software sites will offer a readme file that shows technical information on the download (if you like tech talk) as well as contact info.
The better sites that offer downloads will test and scan all there software programs before going online with it. As a last resort you can do an internet search for reviews on that particular company to see if others got burned.
This may sound scary to some but the fact is in this world anyone who owns a computer will have to look over there shoulders for hidden attacks when working with online.
That said there are some things should do to prevent viruses from attacking your computer:
* Download the latest virus definition lists ( files that tell your computer what to scan for)
that's used for your anti-virus program.
* Check to see if your internet service provider has tools to stop viruses before they can reach your mailbox.
* Always back-up your computer on CD-R disks or other media in case you loose some or all your data.
* You can scan software for viruses before installing it. (See system manual for procedure)
* Set your security settings at the highest level.
* Check your web browser and e-mail settings.
Doing these things at least every week will help keep your computer up to date on Virus protection and running safely.

Extend The Life Of Your Laptop Battery
readthenrate.com:
If you are the owner of a laptop computer, you know how frustrating it can be when you are working on the laptop and your battery is low. If you are constantly on the go, it is sometimes difficult to find a place
to plug in your computer to let it recharge. There are a few things that you can do to help you take care and extend the life of your laptop battery.
General caution should be observed when running the battery of your laptop. A laptop should be plugged in to the AC adaptor whenever possible. This will ensure that your laptop battery is always charged and ready to go when it is needed. Another tip is to not expose your laptop to extreme weather conditions, especially very cold temperatures. A cold battery will run much slower than one that is warm. Also, try not to use your laptop for long periods of time without recharging the battery. This can cause information to be lost if the battery sudden stops working.
When using your battery on your laptop, remember use as little power as you can by adjusting the settings on the laptop. This will make your computer go inactive when not in use for a certain amount of time. Adjusting the power setting
is easy if you go into the control panel and set the display time. It is also possible to adjust the brightness of the screen display to help the life of the laptop battery. Remember to turn programs off that you are not using. This will waste battery usage quicker. Also, running movies and videos will quickly drain the battery charge.
When using your laptop battery you will want to make sure you check the battery charge frequently. Charge your laptop as soon as you see the battery getting low. Whenever you can, plug in your computer. It is a good idea to always plug in your computer so that it is ready to go. Also, take care of your battery. It is important to clean the laptop battery and keep it free of dust and debris. Using canned air or a cotton swab on a regular basis can do this. The battery will run longer if it is cleaned frequently.
Another tip is to have an extra battery on hand. These are easily purchased. Have at least one fully charged at all times for a quick battery change. Some laptops can run with two batteries. Most laptops are also compatible with external batteries that can easily be added and changed when necessary. Battery charges that work in the car are also good options for anyone taking their laptops on trips. Also, if you are purchasing a new laptop computer, consider buying a smaller, lightweight version. These are more efficient and are able to run longer on a battery charge than the larger laptop versions. Following these basic tips can help extend the amount of time your computer can run with a battery.

BBC Banned Music: Top Singles Banned By the BBC
readbud.com:
The British Broadcasting Corporation also known as the BBC is a public broadcasting corporation. Therefore, it allows itself to ban materials that deviate from certain standards of civility. During the years, many
singles that were seen as too explicit, distasteful or bear the potential for offending the British public were banned from BBC airplay. Here you can read about some of them.
In 1977, when England was celebrating the Queens Jubilee, the Sex Pistols had released their second single titled God Save the Queen. The single includes controversial lyrics that rhyme the national anthem title with fascist regime. Moreover, the record cover displayed a picture of the Queen with a safety pin stuck in her nose.
The single was found to offensive to be air played by the BBC, but it did not stop it from reaching number two on the BBC official singles chart. According to the myth, God Save the Queen was the top selling single in the UK at the time, but it was held back of number one to avoid controversies.
Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin
scandalous duet Je TAime ... Moi Non Plus, translated: I love you... me neither, was the first ever number one hit to be banned by the BBC. Although at the time of its release, in 1969, the sexual revolution was celebrated, the British radio still was not able to cope with such explicit lyrics, not to mention Birkins moans and groans.
The BBC ban and The Vatican denounce, did not stop Je TAime ... Moi Non Plus from being a top selling single in the UK and worldwide. In October 7, 1969, the single reached number one in
the BBC official singles chart. At the same time, it had reached number 69 at the US singles chart.
Je TAime ... Moi Non Plus was a major influence on another BBC banned single, Donna Summers disco pioneer from 1976 titled Love to Love You Baby. After counting 23 faked orgasms performed by Summer in Love to Love You Baby, the British Broadcasting Corporation banned
the song. However, it did not stop it from becoming a massive hit. Love to Love You Baby reached number four on the UK single charts but peaked to number two on the Billboard pop chart.
Relax by Frankie Goes to Hollywood is one of the most controversial singles as well as commercially successful singles in history. The BBC did not only ban the song it also did not stop BBC Radio 1 DJ Mike Read to publicly express his feelings of disgust from the single's explicit lyrics. In 1984, Relax stayed in the UK singles charts for 42 weeks. In five of them, it stayed in number one. By the end of 1984, embarrassed Auntie Beeb removed the ban. Relax is still very popular worldwide and it is one of the most recognized symbols of the era. The arguments on whether it gained such a huge success despite the BBC ban or the BBC ban helped promoting it have not been settled yet.
Paul McCartney and the Wings response to the 1972 Bloody Sunday events titled Give Ireland Back to the Irish, was banned by every media resource in the UK. It was forbidden from being broadcast by the BBC, Radio Luxembourg and the Independent Television Authority. In addition, the song title was not allowed to be pronounced on the air, so when it arrived to the BBC Radio 1 chart show it was presented as a record by the group Wings. However, Give Ireland Back to the Irish hit the top of the Irish singles charts.

Why Buying Refurbished Computers?
There are many misconceptions
having to do with reconditioned
and refurbished laptops. All the
replacement parts should have
the highest quality to ensure
customer satisfaction Sometimes the refurbished stock
comes directly from the
manufacturers to the consumer
when refurbished, or sometimes
to the company specializing in
refurbishment if the manufacturers does not
refurbish in-house. Then the
refurbishment company supplies
the items to the consumers.
There are cons and pros to
purchasing the refurbished computers:
PRO:
*The Cheaper Price
*Speed - often items sold from
the stock rather than the
made-to-order *Support - the refurbishment
companies are usually easier to
contact than the bigger
manufacturers.
*Often the refurbished items are
already upgraded to the higher specification than original items,
such as bigger memory or a
bigger hard drive.
*Items will come with the
warranty that is offered by the
refurbisher. CONS:
*Sometimes people worry that
refurbished one is inferior.
In summary; you do not have
anything to fear in buying the
refurbished laptops, except there could be occasional
marks,blemishes, or scratches on
the product.
Saves Your Money with A
Refurbished Computer
High end media computers are very expensive and therefore an
average family cannot afford to
purchase it. In such circumstance,
refurbished computers are the
only alternative for those who
want them for home and basic office use.
Refurbish computers are
available with computer retailers.
The dealers, who exchange new
computers for used ones,
refurbish the returned used ones and offer to sell them at
heavily reduced rate. In case you
require the monitor, it may cost
a bit more. Such computer
systems are available for sale
online at competitive prices. It is even possible to get insurance,
extended warranty and shipping
free of cost.
It is to be remembered that
some of these refurbished
systems are not condemned pieces. There are various
reasons for such systems to
reach for second sales as
refurbished.
Some of the customers prefer to
buy refurbished ones, because they have already bought an
expensive system, and require a
second one for family use.
An important advantage of the
refurbish system is that it is
upgradeable in case the buyer wants to add accessories like
hard drives, memory, faster
modems and DVD drives. All these
additional accessories are
available online, including monitor.
So the refurbished computer systems is a safe option for
those who want them at an
affordable price.
Refurbished Computers Are a
Great Solution
An entire industry exists around the business of refurbishing and
remarketing used laptops and
desktop computers. The major
sources of these machines are
billion dollar companies. Wise CIO's
plan to have a regular refresh schedule so that they don't end
up with a fleet of outdated
computers creating a budget
crisis. Fortune 1000 companies,
companies that employ
thousands of workers, typically lease computers for 3 years. At
the end of that period,
companies can extend the lease,
buy out the equipment, or
return the computers to the
leasing company. The largest leasing companies in the
computer field are actually
subsidiaries of the computer
manufacturing companies.
Examples would include DellT
Financial Services, HPT Financial Services, and IBMT Global Finance.
These companies exist to
facilitate the sale of new
computers for their parent
companies. Brokers, in turn,
want to sell these used computers to new buyers.
Brokers can (and do) sell used
computers "as-is" to other
brokers or consumers. Used
computers are a commodity, and
the market typically attributes a value to these machines that is
just a multiple of some value
multiplied by the speed of the
equipment's processors in
megahertz. These commodity
computers trade at low commodity prices.
Other brokers actually invest
time and capital to refurbish
computers. The Refurbishment
process involves many steps.
Brokers audit the equipment to determine the machines'
specifications. They test to make
sure the machines are bootable.
Brokers inspect the equipment
to ensure it is aesthetically
acceptable. If necessary, they professionally paint machines,
replace keyboards, wrist rests,
and covers. The next step
involves loading an Operating
System (OS). The best brokers
participate in the Microsoft Authorized Refurbished (MAR)
program which ensures that
they are providing a licensed
copy of the operating system
with a Certificate of Authenticity
(COA) sticker and a restore disk. Unlike used, commodity
computers, refurbished machines
are premium products, and
brokers can obtain a higher
price in the market. Still, these
prices are a great bargain compared to new retail prices.
Typically one can get
approximately the same amount
of refurbished computing power
for about 50% of the price of
new machines. The industry calls these "Off-
Lease" machines. They typically
sell with a 90 day warranty
provided either by the brokers
themselves, or by the original
equipment manufacturer. Originally owned by Fortune 1000
companies, they were once the
cutting edge of computing
power. Three years later, and
refurbished, they are still great
machines. Refurbished Off-Lease computers can be a great tool
for individuals who want
corporate power, or for mid-size
and small companies who just
haven't yet reached the billion
dollar level. Where to Buy Refurbished
Laptops
Refurbishing, simply, means "to
make bright, or fresh again,
renovate". When the customer
returns the laptop to the supplier for some reason, the
supplier would refurbish it and
re-sell it. The Internet provides a
lot of information regarding how
and where we could buy a
refurbished laptop. There are a host of websites that give
details regarding this and there
are many sites which sell
refurbished laptops online. Most
of these websites have simple
and easy to comprehend content which is very helpful in terms of
saving you a lot of time and
money, and avoiding unnecessary
hassles in buying laptops.
Online auctions are another
source for buying refurbished laptops. Most online
marketplaces have pre-set
prices and even if they offer
warranty, it would usually be for
only a short period of time.
Another route you could take is to get in touch with big brand
names in the laptop/computing
field. Most big brands do
refurbish returned laptops and
sell them for a cheaper price.
Known companies like IBM, Dell, Compaq, HP, Acer and others
refurbish laptops. You could
check with laptop manufacturers
who could recommend a list of
authorized sellers of their
equipment. Apart from this, reputable computer sales
companies often buy refurbished
laptops in bulk and then sell at a

Brokers audit the equipment to determine the machines'
specifications. They test to make
sure the machines are bootable.
Brokers inspect the equipment
to ensure it is aesthetically
acceptable. If necessary, they professionally paint machines,
replace keyboards, wrist rests,
and covers. The next step
involves loading an Operating
System (OS). The best brokers
participate in the Microsoft Authorized Refurbished (MAR)
program which ensures that
they are providing a licensed
copy of the operating system
with a Certificate of Authenticity
(COA) sticker and a restore disk. Unlike used, commodity
computers, refurbished machines
are premium products, and
brokers can obtain a higher
price in the market. Still, these
prices are a great bargain compared to new retail prices.
Typically one can get
approximately the same amount
of refurbished computing power
for about 50% of the price of
new machines. The industry calls these "Off-
Lease" machines. They typically
sell with a 90 day warranty
provided either by the brokers
themselves, or by the original
equipment manufacturer. Originally owned by Fortune 1000
companies, they were once the
cutting edge of computing
power. Three years later, and
refurbished, they are still great
machines. Refurbished Off-Lease computers can be a great tool
for individuals who want
corporate power, or for mid-size
and small companies who just
haven't yet reached the billion
dollar level. Where to Buy Refurbished
Laptops
Refurbishing, simply, means "to
make bright, or fresh again,
renovate". When the customer
returns the laptop to the supplier for some reason, the
supplier would refurbish it and
re-sell it. The Internet provides a
lot of information regarding how
and where we could buy a
refurbished laptop. There are a host of websites that give
details regarding this and there
are many sites which sell
refurbished laptops online. Most
of these websites have simple
and easy to comprehend content which is very helpful in terms of
saving you a lot of time and
money, and avoiding unnecessary
hassles in buying laptops.
Online auctions are another
source for buying refurbished laptops. Most online
marketplaces have pre-set
prices and even if they offer
warranty, it would usually be for
only a short period of time.
Another route you could take is to get in touch with big brand
names in the laptop/computing
field. Most big brands do
refurbish returned laptops and
sell them for a cheaper price.
Known companies like IBM, Dell, Compaq, HP, Acer and others
refurbish laptops. You could
check with laptop manufacturers
who could recommend a list of
authorized sellers of their
equipment. Apart from this, reputable computer sales
companies often buy refurbished
laptops in bulk and then sell at a
good price About the author: Marcus - Sales and Technical Advisor to Customers @ Electro Computer Warehouse

Laptops - Is a Laptop Right for You - Choosing the Right Laptop - Laptop Choices by Jim Wilson
Laptop Mobility? Laptop computers vary in size, weight, and battery life. How do
you plan on using your laptop pc
is important to choosing the
right laptop for you personally. If
you know how you plan to use it
in your daily routine, you can get a better match for choosing
what fits your lifestyle. Laptop pcs are built with
different usages in mind. If you
are a laptop user that needs
the freedom to access
constantly, you want a laptop
that has a long battery life between recharging. Iff you will
be in a location where you can
access an external power
source, then maybe screen size
is more important. Laptop pcs vary according to
processor, screen size, and
memory capacity. Battery life is
dependent on screen size,
storage space, multiple disc
drives, and the more you recharge the batteries the
output will deteriorate and can
increase your upkeep costs. The way you plan to use the
laptop can help determine what
options you need in choosing a
laptop that fits your budget and
it's lifespan. If you simply need a
laptop to store data and you don't use it for games or
multimedia applications a lower
cost laptop could be the right fit
without over purchasing. If you
only want to access your e-mail,
browse the Web and do word processing, then you can
consider shopping for a less
expensive laptop. Laptops with higher power, full
blown graphics capability, DVD
burner, widescreen and wireless
connectivity can have you
shopping for a more expensive
laptop. Once you have determined use
and mobility, you will need to
consider the differences
between display, graphics
controller, memory (RAM), hard
disk, removable storage, networking options, peripheral
connectivity, sound and battery. Laptop graphics performance is
still inferior to that of desktop
machines, don't expect a direct
comparison. The application of
graphics is expected less from
the laptops due to their widely used portable data storage
capacity and referencing. Laptop memory and storage is
another key component to
choosing the right laptop for
you. If you will be using your
laptop to be your primary
memory and data base, upgrade to the more capacity models.

the danger of explosion. It may
rarely happen but it does
happen and anyone could be at
risk when using poor quality

owing to its cobalt oxide
content. Consideration may be directed

4 budget ultraportable laptops battery
Laptops are getting faster, more
portable and cheaper as the
back-to-school season rolls in. A
new range of lightweight laptops
from PC makers priced between
US$400 to $600 are as portable as netbooks but offer much
better performance. These laptops come with screen
sizes ranging from 11.6 inches to
13.3 inches and can offer long
battery life, sometimes in excess
of six hours. Performance-wise,
these laptops are not slouches -- they can play back high-
definition videos and are capable
of handling casual gaming. However, these laptops are not
capable of handling intense
gaming or demanding
applications, given the limited
processing power and graphics
capabilities. These laptops also don't come with optical drives, so
there could be an additional cost
involved in buying a DVD or Blu-
ray drive. Dell Inspiron M101z(dell laptop battery) Dell recently introduced the
Inspiron M101z, which the
company claims offers "long
battery life." The laptop weighs
about 3.44 pounds (1.56
kilograms), and Dell tests indicate the battery life to be about six
hours and 30 minutes with a six-
cell battery. The laptop is priced from US$449.
It runs on power-efficient Athlon
II Neo single- and dual-core
processors from Advanced Micro
Devices. It will decode and play
back HD video with the help of AMD's ATI Mobility Radeon HD
4200 integrated graphics. The system supports up to 8GB
of memory and 320GB of hard-
drive storage. It also has a 1.3-
megapixel webcam and an HDMI
(high-definition multimedia
interface) port to display HD video on external devices.
Wireless connectivity options for
the laptop include Bluetooth 3.0
and Wi-Fi. Toshiba T235( toshiba laptop battery) Toshiba in mid-June launched the
Satellite T200 series of laptops
with screen sizes ranging from
11.6 inches to 13.3 inches, and
with prices starting at $549. The
processor options include Intel's Pentium or AMD's Neo dual-core
processors. The laptops support
up to 320GB of hard-drive
storage and 4GB of memory. A model that stood out in the
new series was the T235D-
S1340, which has a base price of
$549. It comes with an Athlon II
Neo dual-core K325 processor
and ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4225 integrated graphics. It has 3GB
of memory and 320GB of
storage. It also includes an HDMI
port and a webcam. No further
information was immediately
available on the laptop's battery life. The most expensive laptop in the
T200 line is the $629 T235-
S1350, which comes with Intel's
Pentium U5400 dual-core
processor running at 1.2GHz. Hewlett-Packard's Pavilion
DM1z For those who prefer HP, the
Pavilion DM1z laptop is a
lightweight budget laptop that
includes an 11.6-inch screen.
Priced starting at $449, the
laptop weighs about 3.24 pounds (1.47 kilograms) and can run for
around five hours on a single
six-cell battery charge. It also
includes a webcam and a 5-in-1
media card reader, and supports
up to 5GB of memory and 500GB of storage. A recommended configuration
from HP is priced at $524.99. The
configuration includes an AMD
Turion II Neo dual-core processor
K625 running at 1.5GHz and
AMD's ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4225 integrated graphics. It
comes with 3GB of RAM and
320GB of storage. Acer's Aspire One laptops
(aspire one laptop battery) Acer in late June announced two
new Aspire One laptops with low-
power AMD chips. The AO521 is
just under an inch thick, comes
with a 10.1-inch screen and
weighs about 2.75 pounds, making it more like a netbook.
The AO521 is priced starting at
US$349.99. The AO721 netbook
has an 11.6-inch screen, is
slightly heavier and is priced
beginning at $429.99. The laptops include integrated ATI Radeon HD
graphics to display high-definition
multimedia content, and come
preloaded with the Windows 7
OS. About the author: We are the huge battery

how to use acer laptop bateery
We've talked a lot about how to
extend your acer laptop battery
life, but before you to do so,
you should also know some using
basics of laptop battery. Take
care of your laptop battery and ensure that it will be ready to
work properly when you need it
most. Some general tips for
laptop care include: avoid
extreme temperatures, don't
leave a laptop outside in cold weather or leave it in a hot car.
Cold ACER laptop battery can't
create very much power and hot
batteries will discharge very
quickly. Use electrical power
when available to keep ACER laptop battery charged. Don't let
your laptop go for long periods
of time without using the ACER laptop battery. Here are some basic using
method:
1. Smaller Is Better
Consider an ultraportable or
thin-and-light rather than a
desktop replacement laptop. Smaller ACER laptop battery
displays use less power. Going
with a hard drive that runs at
4200rpm uses less power than a
hard drive running at 5400rpm.
2. Power Control Use as little power as possible by
adjusting laptop settings. Use
the Power Options to set to the
laptop to go inactive after a set
amount of time. Set adjustments
so that the display goes off first, then hard the hard drive
stay active a bit longer and
store the system contents to
the RAM.
3. Turn Down the Lights
Adjust the display brightness to a lower setting, make sure you
can view the screen without
squinting. You can also adjust
the brightness of the display to
suit the conditions you are
working in. 4. Watch Your ACER Laptop
Battery Use
Keep an eye on your ACER laptop
battery consumption and know
how much power you have
remaining. Use the laptop battery power icon on the system tray or you can
purchase batteries which have
LED gauges on the outside of the
battery itself.
5. Charging It Up
Whenever you have access to a power source, charge the ACER
laptop battery. Before you leave
on any trips, fully charge the
laptop batteries, especially if you
don't know where or when you
might have access to any electrical outlets.
6. Get Another Battery
Some laptops are capable of
running with two batteries. If
you cannot run two batteries,
check with the manufacturer to see if there are high capacity
batteries available. External
batteries (ACER aspire 3000
battery)can also be used to
extend operating time.
7. Drain the Battery The first time you use your
laptop with battery power, allow
the Acer laptop battery to
completely discharge. Do this at
least twice and don't try to
charge the laptop battery when it is half discharged.
8. Clean Batteries
Keep the battery and its
connections clean and free of
debris. Clean your ACER laptop
battery terminals on a regular basis using a cotton swab with
rubbing alcohol on the tip.
9. CMOS Battery Check-Up
The backup battery is a CMOS
battery which is a secondary
laptop battery (such as ACER 2300 Battery) to power the
clock and can drain a main ACER
laptop battery if it is dead.
Check with your User Manual or
manufacturers web site for the
location of the CMOS battery and where to get a replacement.
10. Turning It Off
Don't run programs or devices
that you aren't using. Remove PC
cards and turn off Wi-Fi
software. Using your laptop to watch movies or play games will
drain the acer laptop battery
quickly as well.
Just follow this simple steps,
yousave much time to extend
your acer laptop battery life and other Laptop Accessories.

what are wireless laptops?
Laptop computers were the first
step in the world of wireless
computing and mobile computing.
There has been much progress
between the first laptops and
the laptops of today. When laptops were first introduced,
they were quite bulky and
expensive too. In fact, the bulk
and the cost of the laptops did
not allow everyone to have a
laptop even when they wanted them to. Also, the laptops of
yore were not as powerful as
the laptops today are and
therefore they used to be
bought by only those people who
would actually need a portable computer.
Laptops are basically wireless
devices and they are portable
almost anywhere. They have a
battery life that allows the user

for your home applications, you can easily get a laptop that has
the software and resources to
run your entire home based
software application.

types of laptops are the laptops that are made for gaming. The
gaming laptops not only require

several thousand dollars. Also, because the laptop is designed
towards a particular market, the
