    I have the McAfee Total protection and this is the most frustrating program that I have even used. Right now it says that my 'computer is not protected'. 'Click button to fix'.

    replacement for Zone Alarm

    I have used Zone Alarm for many years, but now they require that I do trial offers to continue to get updates. I was considering buying Zone Alarm, but I can't get to my netzero account with the bought version, and I have seen other free firewalls, but don't know which one to use. Or would it be...

    how not to run a call center

    I have worked on call centers for over 10 years and still can not believe that companies insist on abusing their customers and then spend millions of dollars in advertising try to get them back after they sever their relationship. First, don't make your agents have 'auto-in'. (That means that...

    I reloaded a laptop using the dvd/cd drive, but now whenever I put anything in the drive, the drive spins up and down a couple of times then the screen freezes. The only thing that gets it running again is to press the power button for 5 seconds to turn it off. There is also a driver cd that...

    Printer ink cartriges not empty?

    I need to clean a circuit board that is filthy dirty

    how can I do this safely without damaging the chips with static electricity? Blowing it out will probably not get all the dust and dirt out. The system has been in storage for years and not powered up.

    Possible Strike for Avaya this weekend

    Ayaya and their union CWA might be going on strike this weekend. In the last years Avaya has always gone right down to the wire, and then given the union just about everything that they want.

    Save passwords on Firefox a good idea?

    This is probably a 'no brainer', but I am wondering if using the 'saved passwords' feature on Firefox is a good idea and if there are other ways to safely save passwords on my computer so I don't have to type in passwords to the 10 or more sites that I access sometimes 20 times a day.
