ClamXAV

Like the spyware, virii are more or less non-existent on the Mac, but if you suspect a file and don't want to pass it on to you Windows friends, this works pretty well.
D-Link 802.11b USB adapter is a piece of junk. The mac drivers are very unstable. I got maybe 5-10 minutes of usage out of my iBook before it froze up or had a kernal panic. The best thing to do is to put an Airport Extreme card from Apple, it should be backwards compatible with 802.11b.
Airport Cards are hard to find because Apple is not making them anymore. But some apple repair shops will sell them, see thread604-973566. Once you install it, your mac will automatically install the driver and in the networking preferences on the airport tab you should see a check box for...
You should not have to put a $ in front of anything for WEP in airport, just choose the right security (128 Hex, 128 ASCII, 40, etc.) and type the password set in the router.
I used to use the D-Link adapter for my iBook G3, but it comes with a very buggy driver. It crashed my system after about 10 minutes almost everytime. I had a Linksys Access Point with 128bit WEP on it, and it seemed to work just fine with the D-Link adapter (if only for 10 minutes before it...
I have a tab system that uses <div>s that contains the <table>s of each tab. It works great in all browsers (Moz, Safari, FFox, Opera, etc.), but not in the Windows version of IE. When I click on the tab it calls a javascript function that changes the CSS class that controls the display and...
I have been using Office X for Mac for 3 years, and have yet to have a compatibility issue with a Windows Office file. The only thing is that there is no MS Access for Mac, (which is something I rarely use on the Windows side answays). But there is FileMaker, MySQL, and many other database...
Pretty Simple, make sure the printer is shared on the XP machine. Then on the iBook go to Applications --> Utilities --> Printer Setup Utility. In there just click Add. The first drop down will have where the printer is at (Appletalk, Raendezvous, USB, Windows Printing, etc..). You want to...
Look in c:\Windows\System32 folder and see if notepad.exe is in there. If it is, the shortcut probably got accidently deleted. You can recreate the shortcut by right-clicking it and choosing "Create Shortcut".
Probably the reason they left Password protection of folder off in XP is that is a little redundant over setting permissions on the folder. By blocking permission of the user you do not want access to the folder, you are in effect password protecting it, with the password of your user account...
When you are in DOS in XP, you are still in XP, just in a command prompt for XP. The best way if you do not mind losing all of your data is to re-install Windows. After you accept the EULA in the Windows Installation, it will ask you what drive and partition you want to install Windows on...
