Many people tend to not realize one small and simple (and usually inexpensive) tidbit when it comes to preserving your data. Many more people are very hesitant to do the old “format & reinstall” Windows when their PC starts to act very slowly and programs like CleanCache and CCCleaner don’t help. Maybe their [...]
With the recent publicity of the conficker (well, I’ve started to call it something else but I won’t go there) virus people have been asking me “why do people write computer viruses?” Well, there isn’t a one size fits all answer to that. It’s like asking someone in high school why do they play [...]
Another pseudo-virus (a pop-up that warns your system has a virus. When you click oK it installs a script that flags a virus (when it isn’t) and redirects your browser to their website so you can pay them to “remove” the virus) going around - Malware Defender 2009.

It seems that there is a huger harvesting of domains going on right now and a company called “DomainNotice” is sending out email. Plain and simple - this is a scam.
They offer to keep your site indexed by “search engine” (what, they don’t even know Google?) and if you do not pay them $75 for [...]

For example, I checked the local wireless networks my other computer could see. There were a total of 9 (including my own). Out of those 9, 2 were secured networks (including my own). Out [...]
I’m seeing a lot of ads now for people offering to clean out your PC, for a price. The sad truth is that most of the time people can do this for a lot less than what they offer for, many times it can be dome, by the computer’s user, for free. These [...]
I have launched Coyote Links. This is a great service where you can pay for a keyword, based on the number of letters in the word ($1 per letter). This word is now linked on the site to a site of your choosing. No renewal fees, no auctions, no competing for keywords, [...]
A few months ago, as per Fred Lanting’s wishes, we were able to start the process to get the domain FredLanting.com out of the hands of someone who had stolen tens of thousands of dollars from Fred, illegally printed copies of his books, and were selling them, basically profiting off of Fred’s hard work and [...]
I’ve launched another site,
PetSupplyRecalls.com
This site will display news in reference to pet supply recalls (food, toys, training equipment, etc…) for all kinds of pets (cats, dogs, fish, live stock etc..). Go check it out and visit often to see what the latest danger is to our pets!
DNForum.com is planning their third live chat room auction at 3:00Pm EST on September 3, 2008.
If you attended the last auction, you would have noticed that there were some good names sold at great prices. This auction is expected to be bigger - they’ve expanded the number of domains in the auction from 30 [...]
