  3. Is It Ok To Delete Dlls

    in Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista, and XP

    Posted

    HI John L

    it is an area im not hat familiar with.

    so i try to keep to the normal path.

    but im always open to learn about dlls as they are an important part of the OS.

    i do have an appli with all dll files in the win operating sys.

    where by you can down load any dll if you need it.

    but i havent a clue how to use it.

    if i did download .

    but im willing to learn.

    because of regclean ive learned a little about those dll files.

    thanks

  7. Web Blog Dangers

    in Security Alerts

    Posted

    i watched cnn and it was a ticker tape news service.

    i posted on g4 and chappy has posted back in reference to web blog dangers.

    so if you need any verification go and see what chappy has to say may be then you will take heed .

    i dont post these warnings for fun.

    chappy says any web page is vulnerable to virus link clickables.

    so before i posted here i checked with chappys post first.

  9. Msn Messenger Plus

    in Spyware/Adware Information

    Posted

    yes when microsoft brought messenger on the scene it was competing with applis like yahoo, trillion. ect and it gave itm to us weather we liked it or not.

    and that is where the trouble started.it in cluded an appli called A lerta whic was supposed to alert us to any microsoft innovations.

    but the spammers found Alerta to be HOLE which they exploited .

    to send us all this s------t

    and that is the that needs to be disabled.

    i believe that is where the alert/to/be virus comes from i cant confirm this i read it in a compt mag.

  10. Spam

    in PC Tips and Tricks

    Posted

    if you use OE there is a means to block them .

    tho they just change there address .

    have you tried mailwasher .

    it is supposed to bounce the mail back to the sender.

    but it dosent work if the spammers are big bizness they can afford to keep changing the address.

    what i did i have 3 email accounts .

    one in my inbox which i dont publish.

    and one i leave in my web mail and the other i use an alias.

    this tends to bounce it back to the sender.

    and of course my in box address which very few people know

    but i can assure you it dosent stop a trickle of mail getting through

    pharmacy mail is the worst.

    have a talk with your isp.

    some of them sell your email address to spammers

    very lucritive bizness.

    hi team i just forgot one thing im on dial up.

    with a 600 cpu.

    and it will take 33 hrs to download knoppix i didnt think of it at the time.

    those sites linked are exellent .

    and i may still try and download it .

    my first knoppix cd i was one of the first in my country to explore it

    but it is out of date.and needs to be updated.

    so thanks huys

    Have a real world connection .

    Have a website as well as a forum and a site that has draw at that.

    After TechTV was sold, we saw hundreds of people start forums hoping that they would be the replacement, of those the only one I would rate as a success is Beluga's Besttechie.net , he had a reputation for honesty and knowledge as well as a successful website with plenty of traffic before he even broached the idea of starting a forum. It is a small closeknit community of friends helping friends.

    http://www.besttechie.net/

    What makes this board so successful is the community we have and the draw that G4TV has to bring in new members and publicize its existance.

    We have a great group of experts who love to share their knowledge, and the traffic to keep them interested.

    Spamming is not the answer, it will turn away those who have something to offer and not attract the kind of people who will stay and contribute.

    Make sure to read our rules on spam and do not post this on other boards on this forum or you may be interpreted as a spammer.
