I don't know the answer to your problem, but I'd keep Windows Defender. It does a good job too.

Quick question. My cpu has been running slower for a good minute & I know that it's not spyware/adware/virus, etc. NOD is my AV so it shouldn't be taking up too many resources & I never use more than 2 programs at a time, especially ones like iTunes or Photoshop that I know hog space up.

I installed a program called Memory Turbo that shows how much available RAM you have & is supposed to help free more up for you. I think that I may need more RAM. I have 247 MB on my desktop. Since I know almost nothing about RAM, is this average, low, etc? And would buying more speed it up? And last, if I bought some at a electronics store like Best Buy or Circuit City, would they be able to install it?

Thanks a lot in advance.

d e beatup,

247mb ram...so you have 256mb ram...that's pretty low for today's standards. you can buy ram separately from circuit city and stuff, but make sure to ask the rep that it'll fit in your comp. it will speed your comp up slightly, let you run more programs at once, etc. you can install it yourself, it's quite easy. there's slots in your computer for them.

That happened to me a few weeks ago. Turns out it was either spyware or a virus. Run some spyware scans with the programs I've recommended in my previous posts, and a virus scan with your AV.

Yeah, I'd get some more RAM. I have 1GB, and it's fine, so I suggest you get that too. And yes, they should be able to install it, although it is very easy to install yourself. You just open the computer, and the RAM sort of clips into a socket. Very easy.

You can get it here.

Get the full version.

Quick question,

I'm looking for a low profile agp card for a compaq desktop of mine. Not looking for stellar graphics, but something to get me by with cs and other old games. Question is, does brand really matter? Choices being:

XFX, ZOGIS, eVGA, ect.

Now I know everyone recommends eVGA, but i've heard good and bad things about all the other companies (like some love asus, others absolutely hate it). eVGA is not on the list of graphics cards I'm able to obtain. In fact, ZOGIS has the best stats for the lowest price, but I researched them and they are relatively new.

so... can anyone give me some advice on video card companies? Im looking at a low profile agp geforce 6200. thanks,

phil

Dogs are short, you see, close to the ground. That way they can't
get struck by lightning. Now if they was giraffes, they'd have been
hit by now. but dogs are short and they take care of their
own. Giraffes don't. No, giraffes don't at all. Boy, giraffes are selfish. Just run around looking out for number one, getting hit by
lightning...

Is there any site I can upload it on so I can get an HMTL code to put it on myspace page and be able to email it also or is there a way I can make my file smaller with out takin away from it.


Its a slideshow with music on the background. I even reduce to size of all the pic and still got the same MB.
