song for a young budding guitar player
Posted: 6/2/2007 9:48:58 PM
I teach guitar and I can tell you that nothing is better for a beginner than AC/DC. Back in Black, Hells Bells, Highway to Hell, You shook me, are all simply chord based songs that are a ton of fun to play. Buy lots of books at your local music shop and just have fun.

Good Luck

Computer Ploblems plzzz HELP :o)

Hi there, a great free anti-virus program called AVG is available at free.grisoft.com, and a great anti-spyware program called ad-aware is available at www.lavasoft.com.

Your best bet is to take your PC to a professional and have them fix it. It's a very common problem and you can get a "Tune up" for around 30 - 40 bucks. That's what I charge anyways, I know most places charge about the same.

Good Luck

How to start up a new Business on the World Wide Web....?
Posted: 9/29/2006 8:59:55 PM
Selling your wares online is a great way to start a business. If you get a lot of interest you can then consider opening a store. You will probably need to hire a web developer who can design a secure e-commerce site for you.

You should look at the Small Business Funding Center in Canada. Basically the government gives away grants and low interest loans for Canadians wanting to start their own business. I myself will be applying to them, but need to finish the business plan first (major time consuming).
Check out their link for more info.

Good luck.

1st check this.

Click on Tools
Internet Options
Advanced
Scroll down till you see
"Show image download placeholders"
Make sure it is UNCHECKED

Make sure "Show Pictures" is CHECKED.

Hopefully its that simple.

IMPORTANT --> Spyware - Popups, Homepage Changing

Just a little additional advice.. If you ever come across a web page that says "You need to install this to view the page properly" just click no and surf away. Most likely it is their way of tricking you in to downloading and installing spyware/adware.

Always remember, nothing is free. Most software that is offered for free usually does more harm than good. There are a few exceptions, like AVG, ad-aware, Windows Defender, but usually when it is free, beware.

Finally, Internet Explorer 7 is now available, which is very similar to Firefox, including the tabbed browsing feature. The big difference is when a security hole is identified in IE it will be fixed with Windows update. If there is ever a security flaw in Firefox, you will need to get a new version, Windows update wont automatically fix it for you.

Happy Surfing :o)

VIRIS WON'T LEAVE
Posted: 9/24/2006 8:30:44 PM
The best thing to do IS to take it to a professional, who can do a DOS scan on it. This will scan the computer without running Windows itself, which will allow detection of any memory-resident viruses (as the other poster mentioned).

If you don't want to spend the money, you can back up all your important data and do a system recovery using the recovery discs that came with the computer. Most computers now actually have the recovery software on a seperate partition on the hard drive which can be accessed by pressing a certian button (i.e. F11) at start up. Make sure to choose the option NOT to save any files, because if you just re-install the operating system over top of the old one the virus will still be there.

In the mean time, try a few online scans, like the trendmicro one mentioned before, and don't do any online banking until you are sure that the virus is gone. Make sure you are using a good anti-virus program, and use (free.grisoft.com) AVG if you don't already have one. Make sure it gets updated atleast once a week.

Good Luck
