Internet Security At Schools


The Teachers and principals act confident of their internet security, so confident they don't bother to check it. Well there is 500 students, who wants to sit at a desk all day and check all the website history. Besides: All the Bad Sites are blocked! You tube, Face book, You know it! Meanwhile we have students in Room 203 gathered around the small monitor watching a funny youtube video. Think again Teachers, your security may be easily bypassed. Kids these days know how to get around it!
The Worst One:
Net Proxy,
Lots of school networks have this "Security," this is the easiest to get passed. The Kids just have to type in a few words in google and BAM!
For some networks that block Youtube: Most students go to google type the name of the video and click "Videos." Which allows them to view the video without actually going to youtube.
Since certain URLS are blocked:
For Example;
www.myspace.com A Student might type in myspace.com/profile/login or so on and so on.

So you may want to rethink your security blocks...

My Security Engine

My Security Engine is a nasty bugger.
Its a "Anti-Virus" program that puts fake viruses on your computer. I had the unlucky encounter of this nasty virus.
You can't delete it, When you delete the shortcut it pops back up again, along with "WARNINGS!" Along with putting the fake viruses on, it also shuts down your other anti-virus programs, and when you try to remove its fake viruses, it puts more on. If this keeps going, the virus files will jam up your hard drive causing all your other info to be deleted.

Its also Fraud: It wants you to pay $50 to remove these fake viruses, it has put on itself.

But never fear! There is a way to delete this nasty Virus!
The program is called Malewarebytes, When I had this virus, this program cleared it all up!
So, you may want to download Mal ware Bytes if you have security Engine, or to prevent it!

Does The Popular Norton Really Work?


You are walking down the computer software department of a store. You spot a program labeled: Norton. Its says it protects against viruses. You've probably heard of it before. You buy it and are confident that your computer is protected. That Norton will elimate every virus. WRONG!
Norton is not designed to destroy viruses. Its designed to warn you of viruses. While you think they are gone. They aren't.
When the screen says "Virus Blocked" Its not really blocked, and it doesn't warn you of all the viruses.
Now Imagine an ocean, now imagine a scanner. The Ocean is 40 feet deep, the scanner only scans 2 feet down. So only the viruses near the top are picked up and not the deadly spyware nesting near the bottom.
Here is what people say of Norton:

Norton is utter junk you even have to remove norton like a virus. Instead of clicking uninstall and clicking a button you have to do that plus install a norton removeal tool then use that tool to really uninstall it then uninstall that tool.

Norton is useless, such a resource hog.

Above are from a Computer "Geek" forum,
Computer Users suggest:
AVG~Picks up surface Viruses
SpyBot~Picks up spyware

Apple IPad


In April 2010, The New Apple I-pad will be released. But are the prices to high?
Before with the release of the I pod and the I-phone. The prices are specifically chosen to be semi expensive. Usually being less than $250 dollars. That way its easy for everyone to afford.
But, with the I-Pad the starting price is $499. $500. The starting price of a good laptop.
Laptops don't have touch screens, but they have more speed and space than a I-Pad. They also have the capability to hold more programs. More programs are made for windows than Mac. The Facts show it because in North America as of 2007. 3% of the population owned Macs. While Less than 2% owned Lynx operated computers.
The rest of the population owning computers were of Windows. The I-Pad is around the size of a Netbook. Some Netbooks are $300. Could the I-Pad be too expensive?
Why would people buy this I-Pad if they can buy a netbook for less?
The Name:
Apple has a "If you own this your cool" name.
According to some predictions, the I-Pad's price will lower in the next couple of years. Being that it will be expensive when First released. As it was with the I-phone and I-pod touch.
