There is a list of the Top 5 Windows processes, and links to explanations of what they really are, if you use Windows. If you don't use Windows (a wise choice) you don't need to worry about it. |

OpenOffice.org is one of the ways we are helping people get rid of viruses and trojans on their computers. It is an open-source Office suite, similar to that one you are probably familiar with, except that it works equally well regardless of whether you're running Mac, Windows or UNIX/Linux, it handles all of the standard file formats without converting, plus it has its own file formats as well, and it doesn't have the nasty "feature" that the other software package has, that causes it to be the number one target for viruses in the world. If you need help with your computer, one thing that will help a lot is to get software that works, and doesn't provide a vehicle for nefarious bad-guys to abuse your computer: OpenOffice.org will do it for you. |
Here are a couple of nifty javascript gadgets that'll convert pretty much anything to pretty much anything else. They don't do currency, but if you ever wondered how many gills in a barrel, how many picas in a furlong, or how many milliliters in a quart, here's where you can find out. |
You should never forward virus warnings of any kind, that you receive in email, to *anyone*. It doesn't matter if the virus warnings have come from an anti-virus vendor or been confirmed by any large computer company or your best friend. If you absolutely must forward a virus warning, send it to us and we'll tell you whether it's real or not. Most probably it will be a hoax, but even if it's not, forwarding a warning probably won't help anyway. We at Rent-A-Geek get a fair number of email viruses, and email virus-hoaxes every month, and we also get a fair number of inquiries concerning whether something is a legitimate warning or not. The following off-site links (provided by Sophos Anti-Virus) contain information about the most recent virus reports, and the most common virus-hoaxes that you might receive in your email. |
