Tape Backup Drives and Tape Libraries

Although tape storage is one of the older ways to backup computer data, it remains one of the most popular and reliable ways to store data. Tape backup drives have come a long way since IBM developed the technology in the 1950's. Today's systems are a complex network of tape drives and tape libraries that store the data of the world's largest corporations.

Aside from reliability, the other factor that makes tape drives so successful is their scalability and low cost. Tape backup drive technology can range from well under $1,000 dollars for a simple system for a small business or well into the 100's of thousands of dollars for a large corporation.

Scalability

As a business grows, tape libraries can expand to meet new data demands without a complete rebuild of the system. These tape libraries, are storage devices build to hold multiple tape drives. Some tape libraries are monstrous, with thousands of cataloged tapes containing barcodes to identify the data. Most businesses won't need tape libraries of this magnitude. The majority of tape libraries sold start with a mere 10 slot, 1 drive and the larger units can support 12 drives with the slot count exceeding 500 before expansion units are required. Many businesses with a plan to grow, start with 1 or 2 tape drives solutions and as many of the libraries are modular, the slot count can grow very easily.

How much storage size do you need?

For a small operation, a good rule of thumb is to choose a current model tape drive, invest in the media and over time move to a library, utilizing a similar tape drive or one that will be backward compatible. A good backup system will operate seamlessly without much maintenance.

Choosing a tape drive that fits your backup window

Ideally, the backup of your data should occur when the systems are not in operation. If your business closes during certain hours of the day, then you'll have fewer restrictions when it comes to choosing tape drives. However, if your business operates round the clock, you might want to implement a different strategy called "disk to disk to tape" where data is stored to a second disk and then recorded on tape drives, from the secondary storage while you continue to operate.

Consider the maintenance costs

While you'll buy a tape backup drive only once, you'll be buying tape for your tape drives on a regular basis. When shopping for tape drives and tape libraries, inquire about the cost of the media. A tape backup drive that is more expensive than its competitor may work out to be more cost effective over the long run if the cost of media is less expensive.When implementing a tape backup drive system, its best to consult with a professional who will learn about your current business needs and future plans and help you design the most cost effective and reliable system. Otherwise, you find yourself purchasing completely new equipment when it's time to grow or buying mismatched equipment. Vendors are often the best no-cost resources for quality consultation on tape drive architecture and can help you get a system in place that is cost effective, reliable, and perfectly suits your needs.

A Novices Experience-PHP5 & MySQL

As an 'internet Marketing' newbie I recently was forced to set up a server on my laptop so I could properly test web-sites written in php code. I am pretty much a html sort of guy and have come back around to the internet after an absence of five or six years, to find things have moved on, and that you need to be able to use this sort of stuff to do Internet marketing properly- article sights, pre made web-sites etc.

I was unable to open these 'pre-made' sights directly in Interent explorer and was only able to get a vague idea of what they looked like by opening them in Dreamweaver- which recognizes php code. I tried to open these sites in a web browser but was told I needed a local server. "How do I do that"? I asked.So, I had no way to see what the final product would look like until I put it on my 'proper' Internet server - not a very efficient way to do things if you want to change elements around.

After a bit of a hunt around on the Internet I discovered that I needed to set up a testing server on my own computer. It seemed the easy way to do this was to get Apache server , PHP, and my SQL database installed on my machine. As there were no e-books available on this. [Is that a Niche Market?] I took a trip to my local bookstore and came away with something I thought would do the job.There I was, filled with excitement and new ideas that this would all be nice and easy. But of course, it wasn't. My first problem was that the book told me to get Apache 1.3. But I could only find only find an Apache two download.

A search for 'Apache 1.3 download 'gives the following 'official' site

http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi -but you have to look closely to find the 'ARCHIVE' file! Which is where the 1.3 versions live. Apparently The PHP people don't think their software works as well on the Apache2 software- probably still being ironed out- but I wanted to do what the book says. Find 1.3 versions here:

PostgreSQL Database in cPanel

This article will explain you on how to manage MySQL or PostgreSQL database in cPanel. After logging into cPanel you will find the MySQL or PostgreSQL icons. CPanel screen lets you to create or work with those types of databases. CPanel uses a similar interface for both types of databases, that’s why most of the web host offers MySQL.

On the MySQL/PostgreSQL cpanel screen you will see four main sections as shown in the figure below. The very first section lets you to create and work with the database. Below that there is another section which allows you to create database users that will be able to access the databases. Next section is to setup remote access to your databases only if your web host allows. At last there is a hyperlink given to phpMyAdmin or phpPgAdmin, the web interfaces for advanced work with your databases.

MySQL PostgreSQL Database cPane

lHow to create a database?

Its not so hard to create database, but there are few things you will need to know. The first thing you are gonna need to create database is the last item in database section. Just write the name of the database into the Db: field and simply click on Add Db button. The database of the name will be created. There will be slightly difference in actual database name you have chosen. It will be created with your cPanel username and with an underscore added before the name you chosen. For example: domain_database1.

How to create a database user?

To use a created database you need atleast one user into the database. For creating a new user simply type a username and password in the “users:” section and click on Add User. A new user will be created immediately. The database username will look like this “domain_robin“.

Now, how to add a user to the database?

Now you have to associate the above created user with the database. Now, if you check out the above Add Db field it has a set of drop-down lists. The first field allows you to select a user that you have created and in second field you have to select the database that you want to associate with that user. Now just click on Add User to Db and its done. Also, you can add a single user to multiple databases if you wish to.Once you have associated a user with the database you will notice that the listing for that database get more detailed. It will show you the database name followed by some links to delete or repair the database and then you will be able to see all the users in the database. Also, it will show you some sample code that shows you how to connect to the database in PHP, Perl or JDBC script.

How to remove or repair a database?Just next to the username there is a button called Delete, but this can be confusing as deleting a user from a database will only remove the user and all the records the user had in that database. It will not affect the actual user you created, it will still work in other databases. As well as there is Check button given to check database for problems, and if it has any errors just click on Repair. And still if that doesn’t work then you must contact your web host.

manage workforce-Time & Attendance tools

Time & attendance tools are the indispensable tools when you have a work force to manage or when you have flexible time around shifts. The attendance requesters to control time recording as a way of data collection around the time and attendance of the workforce is an ancient concept. In case you need to ensure that you are paying your employees as per the actual time and attendance then you should either have those high end softwares that would give you a detailed report of the time & attendance of your work force or you could have those access control systems employed.

To choose from the time & attendance tool and the access control system, you need to consider two things primarily. The first is the luxury of budget that you have and secondly the kind of workforce or the strength of work force that you have. In case you have a huge work force then there is no argument, you would need to go for the access control. As this would not only take care of the time recording and data collection but would at the same time restrict any unauthorized entrance in your work building. This is relatively expensive and is employed by people who have either a large number of people working for them or where in security is the primary concern.

On the other hand there are any time and attendance tools. These would help your data collection around time recording when you have flexible time shifts. The only thing that this tool would not do is restrict unauthorized access to your work building like the access control. As no matter whichever tool you would be using for time & attendance data collection, the employee would have to be at the work place to do so. In case of the access control, when the employee shows his ID, he is marked present and the time is noted. This has its own benefits but then the budget is a major player here.

Selection of hosting company

Ok, you have your web site built and are now confused as to all the choices you have in order to find a home for your site. It is good to make a right choice the first time, because if you have to move to another hosting service, it will cost you time and you will lose some of your valued customers due to the downtime setting up with another web host.

You will also have to pay set up and hosting fees for a new account.

Here are some basic things to consider when choosing a Web Hosting Service:

1. Speed and reliability of the servers and hardware

Make sure they have a high-speed connection (preferably T3 or higher) to the Internet.

*Effective Bandwidth Management – opt for unlimited bandwidth for your site.

*Backup Systems – good hosts will have back up systems in place to guard against power failures, which will cause you to lose data and customers.

2. Features

Compatibility with existing Software and SkillsIs

your host’s server, software and support services compatible with the skills and software you are using? For example if you are using FrontPage to create your site, make sure they have FrontPage extensions installed on their server.

Some of the basic features of a hosting service should include:

Domain name registration
At least 5MB of allocated space
Unmetered bandwidth
Free Technical Support
POP3 E-Mail Accounts
Email Forwarding
Email Auto-responders
Email Aliases
FTP Access
FrontPage Support
Own CGI-Bin Access
Free Perl, CGI
Server Side Includes (SSI)
Password Protection
Reseller/referral program
30 day money back guarantee

Flexibility and room for growth – Keep in mind the future needs of your web site. If the traffic to your site explodes, or in the future you may need a database solution then your host must be able to accommodate the changes.

Quality of their support services
Quality of existing customers – ask for any BIG current customers that are hosting with that service.

Opinions of existing customers – ask for any testimonies of existing customers to get feedback from them concerning reliability and support.
Stability – you do not want your hosting service to go out of business (like what happened to many of the free hosts) and leave you stranded. Check how many years they have been in business.

Support and Responsiveness – Make sure you can contact them 24/7 by phone or email. Test the quality and efficiency of response by sending them an email pertaining to some question you may have before you sign up.

3. Types of Hosting Services

Free Hosting:Free sites are for people whose sites are small and do not expect much traffic.

Pros It’s Free For small non business sites

ConsNo usage of domain namesLimited technical supportUnreliability of servers, softwareLimited web space, technical supportHost may shut down due without notice

Virtual Hosting: (also known as domain or shared hosting).This is the most popular and cost effective form of hosting.

Pros Low cost Great for the average business sites Good technical support

ConsMultiple sites on serverSometimes slow updatesLimited security and control due to the large number of sites on 1 serverUse your own domain name (www.yoursite.com)

What can you expect to pay?

Expect to pay $5 - $50/month for a small web hosting package of 20-50MB of allocated space for your site. This will be enough for up to 20 pages with a few graphics on each page. You may find less expensive ones if you are lucky.( isitebuild.com/sitehosting.htm). Most small web sites use only 2-3MB. Make sure you can upgrade your hosting plan, should your site expand.When you sign up for a monthly service, there is usually no fixed length contract, so you can terminate your contract at any time. Your commitment is month to month although you often will get a discount if you sign up for 1-2 years.If you follow these basic guidelines, you will have a reliable, efficient and satisfying hosting service that will contribute to the success of your business for many years to come.

selection of domain name

Every professional business should be keeping up with the demands and needs of its customers, if it is to survive. One ofthe essential tools of any business these days is to have aprofessional web site. This begins with choosing and registeringa domain name that will clearly identify and brand your businessonline for many years to come, so you need to choose wisely.

How to choose a domain name

1. If you want your web site to have an added advantage in thesearch engines, think of a domain name that includes keywordsvisitors would search for in the main search engines.

2. Make a list of all the possible names that would suit yourbusiness (i.e. isitebuild.com contains resources for buildingyour own web site or getting one built). Use www.nameboy.com forresearching domain names. NameBoy will generate domain namesbased on the keywords you enter. If the dotcom name you want isnot available, create a longer name that describes your businessor use names that include hyphens (i.e. ihost-websites.com)

3. If possible, keep your domain name short so it is easy tospell and easy to remember. Take into account someone mayremember the name but forget there is a hyphen in it – you thenmiss out on those potential customers.

4. If the dotcom name is not available, try the other newabbreviations such as .BIZ .US,.INFO, .TV. These are not aspopular as .COM, however you may get closer to the name youwant. How to register a domain name1. Any company that sells domain names must be registeredand accredited with iCann - The Internet Corporation forAssigned Names and Numbers (http://www.icann.org).You can get a domain name for under $10 from Godaddy.com.Read carefully what’s on their site as you go through theregistration process. It’s easy to inadvertently sign up for other services you don’t need.

What is the DNS system?

It is the computer action of changing domain names into numeric Internet protocol (IP) numbers which enables computers to locate web sites and e-mail. If you haven’t chosen a Web Host, then park your domain namewith your domain name registrar (this is a temporary location tostore your domain until you are ready to have it hosted).

How to transfer a domain name.

There may be several reasons why you would want to transfer:

Renewing Domain NamesThere is a good chance that you could save money on domainname renewals by transferring them to a different registrar.Check out the prices from different registrars at NewRegistrars.com.

Before renewing a domain name, make sure you know whichregistrar the domain name is actually registered with. WhoIsQuery.com is the only WhoIs known that handlesthe CORE registrars as well as the ICANN ones. -

You parked your domain name and have now found a Web Hostto upload your site to.

-You are not happy with the service or are paying too much foryour current web host and want to switch to another.

1. If you are transferring your domain name to another web host,download (copy) all files to your computer from your old host. Sometimes files may be stored on your host but not on yourcomputer, so doing this will ensure you downloaded the whole site.Keep a copy of your files on the old host, while you transfer to another host, so you won't experience any downtime of your web site.

2. Open a new hosting account.

3. Change the DNS (domain name system) or Name Server information on the current domain name to the new hosting company name servers. You can find this information by going to the domain name registrar(the place where you registered your domain name).Your domain will take some time (24-72 hours) to propagate overthe Internet, before it appears on the new hosting company servers.

4. Upload all files to the new host.

5. Amend and test your web site. Check that all files have been uploaded from your computer and that your web site appears exactly as it did before.

6. Cancel the previous hosting account when you are satisfied with the transfer of your domain name to the new host.

A Great Tip for registering several domain names.

Since domain names are so cheap these days (they used to cost $35/year), you can afford to own severaldomains. Each domain can have its own web site. Mostsmall sites use less than 5MB of hosting space, so you couldhost several sites for a small price. What are the benefits of doing this? Linking each of these web sites together and submitting them tothe search engines will increase your sites search engine rankings.It will also broaden the places visitors can access your business. Generating a continuous traffic flow leads to more sales. You have now implemented and solved one of your crucialmarketing strategies.

Install a CGI Script in Website

You may have delayed cgi script installation due to the apparently complexprocess. Well, I avoided it also for several years, however if you want toincrease your web site's interactivity it's a necessity to know how to do it. It's not hard to learn and you don't have to be a programmer.

What is CGI ?

Common Gateway Interface or CGI is a program that can interact with an html form on your web site, and processes the results on your server usinga cgi script. The result generated is a dynamic web page. The cgi script iswritten in a language called PERL ("practical extraction and reportinglanguage").

Uses of CGI Scripts

CGI scripts are most commonly used for creating user interaction with an htmlform on your web site. Other uses include: autoresponders, shopping carts,counters, mailing list managers, ad management, surveys, polls, discussionboards, content management, calendars and click tracking. There are 100s of free cgi scripts that can be found on the Net. Just do a search on Google for "free cgi scripts" or visit the resources at the end of this article. We will create an html email form to collect the name, email address and comments of subscribers using a secure cgi formmail script. An automatic confirmation will be sent and the results of the email form will be passedon to your email address.

Steps to installing your own cgi script

. Check that your web host supports CGI - your web host will have a cgi-binfolder installed on the server. The cgi-bin is a special directory in the server where all the files which require security are kept. This is where you will upload your cgi script once it has been modified.

2. Download the cgi script - this is a secure cgi formmail script. Spammerscan't access and harvest your email address from this script.

3. Read the documentation that comes with the script - this will give you athorough understanding what changes you need to make to have it work correctly with your web site and server. It will also provide you with someexamples.

Editing your script

4. Open and edit your cgi script using notepad (don't use an html editor as thiscan create errors).

5. Remove the html tags from the script (at the top and bottom).

6. Change the path to perl to: #!/usr/bin/perl -wT (this is the first line of the script to be edited).

7. Edit the script - the bolded section of the cgi script shown below, are the other minimum fields to fill out in the script. Replace the fields in the script you downloaded with the bolded fields in the script below.

Add-On Domains -web hosting space

Is it possible to host two or more sites with two or moredomains on the same hosting account? You may want toregister and market another domain name but don't want topay for another hosting account. The best solution is tocreate an add-on domain.

What is an add-on domain?

An add-on domain is a new domain that is added on top ofyour main domain. It creates a sub directory within yourmain web hosting directory but can show a different website. The add-on domain collects the information from thesub domain directory using the same space and bandwidth asyour main account, however it won't have its own cpanel(web hosting manager).

Add-on domain benefits.

1. Create multiple domains/websites on the same web hostingaccount.

2. Save money and web space by using one hosting account instead of several hosting

accounts.

3. The add-on domain shares all the same resources (disk space,bandwidth...) with your main

site.

4. The add-on domain has its own FTP manager, site stats, cgi-bin which is created

automatically.

5. Upload all pages, images, scripts, forums etc to your add-on domain directory.

6. Access your add-on domain using several web site addressesi.e.http://www.SiteB.com,

SiteB.SiteA.comhttp.SiteA.com/SiteB

7. Promote several web sites within one hosting account with their own set of keywords.

How to create an add-on domain.

1. Register your new add-on domain with a domain nameregistrar.

2. Point the DNS (domain name sever) informationof your new add-on domain to the same DNS of your web host.

3. Allow 24-48 hours for the DNS to propagate over the Netbefore uploading your files.

4. Log in to your cpanel (web hosting manager) and scroll to add-on domains.

5. Fill in these three fields:

AMD Processors

Intel vs AMD servers. Which processor is best for a web hosting server?If you go to any dedicated server provider, you will see server offers for both AMD and Intel processor based servers. So which one is better for your website or web hosting company? This question is hard to answer because it is dependent on a lot of variables; but I will try my best to give a decisive answer.AMD and Intel have always been in close competition over the last decade. Whenever Intel was winning, AMD would catch up and overtake Intel. After awhile Intel would catch back up with AMD and overtake them. A competitive market at it’s finest! Anyway, back in 2002-2006 if you would have asked me which I thought was better, I would have said AMD. However, since Intel released its Core2 based processors, I will have to go with Intel for the time being. That is for now…it’s only a matter of time before AMD releases its next generation processor to take back its claim.Over the years I have purchased dozens of servers in all kinds of configurations – dual core AMD, single core AMD, dual core dual proc AMD, single core Intel, dual core Intel, etc. Even though I give raw server processing ability and power to Intel, AMD still has some advantages.AMD: better Low – Medium end servers – Best bang for the buckIf you have outgrown your shared web hosting plan or your VPS plan, it is time to upgrade to a dedicated server. The only problem is that there is a big price jump between VPS and a dedicated server. For that reason, I suggest that you start out on a Single Processor AMD server. The price for AMD based equipment tends to be lower which in turn lowers the monthly cost of the server. A comparable low end Intel machine usually costs $30-50/m more than your low end AMD server. AMD also has advantages on certain process types. For instance, AMD can run Java based applications better than the comparable Intel server.

Intel – High End Servers – Raw Power houseOut of all the high end web hosting servers that I have purchased, my dual proc dual core Xeon servers have always outperformed my high end AMD Opteron servers. When it comes to raw power and data/number crunching, Intel takes the cake. Compared to Opteron processors, Xeon processors have a much larger processor cache. This higher CPU bandwidth allows the machine to process more at a quicker rate than the comparable AMD. For this reason, Intel can run MySQL, Email, PHP, and other services faster than the AMD. Since these services are usually the center of most hosting businesses, I think Intel makes the better web hosting server. I also think that Intel servers are slightly more reliable than AMD because the other hardware in the server is usually perfected for Intel based processors. AMD is a smaller company so other hardware vendors spend more work and effort perfecting their hardware for Intel based machines.

Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor

So Many people are confused what exactly the difference between Intel Core 2 Duo Processors and Between Intel Pentium D or Intel Dual Core processors….I would try to explain from a END user point a view rather not going in to details architecture over view…The Simple facts are,All Core 2 Duo Processors are Dual Core Processors..All Pentium D Processors are Dual Core Processors..All Intel Dual Core Processors are Dual Core Processors

Pentium D is nothing but 2 Prescott Processors side by side… runs very hot, not a good OverClocker…

Intel Core 2 Duo processors are next gen processors from Intel on 65 nm platform… developed from Ground up with new Architecture called Core… so they are whole new Processors just Jump like Pentium 2 to Pentium 3 or Pentium 4… Expect one Core 2 Duo Lowest End Processors like E4400/E4300 taking up and beating Intel Pentium D 3.8 GHz ones with ease … runs damn cool and super over clocker…

Intel Dual Core Processors are just launched striped down version of Core 2 Duos.. there are 2 in Market for Desktop range, E2140 runs at 1.6 GHz with 1 MB L2 and 800 MHz FSB and E2160 with 1.8 GHz with same specs of E2140…. these are not Pentium D rather they are same batch like Core 2 Duo based on the new Core Technology…. they perform same like Core 2 Duos but they were launched with a very low price to counter the market of super low cost but high performer AMD X2 range line up to AMD X2 4000….

Duel core processor-Intel

Tim Quissek is going to have a big day today. It's the beginning of the holiday season and this is the first day after his classes are suspended. He's been waiting for his buddy, Ross to come over his place and together they will launch the new Call of Duty 4 for that he has been waiting for months. Well, he had gone through the necessary upgrades, just bought his new PC express yesterday and installed it on the machine.

So, when the two friends met, it the big moment to run the COD4 for the first time on the new PC. "Damnit" Quissek uttered after a while he pressed the start button. The computer keeps crashing. "What's wrong with it? I have just installed the APG card and touched nothing else!" thus it continued. And in a moment the mood was spoiled.

There are hundreds of thousands Tim Quisseks, we can guarantee who have been facing with major or minor PC crashes everyday. Many are there who have learned to live with the cancer and many others are getting more and more frustrated looking high and low for a proper remedy for system instability.

lessen the hazards of millions of home and office users, the all new Windows XP Boot Disk has been engineered as a life saving Windows repair and system restore device. Its not an ordinary performance booster or tweaker, but System Restore works on computers that have gone out of command and brings back them to function as they were just like those new ones. It can repair unbootable PCs running on XP operating system.

When XP Boot CD helps the most

Let your PC advance you, let's unleash the greatest power of your machine and let the Windows XP Boot Disk watch your back and take away all the hazards from your part.

Cyberattack-IPV-6

The new internet protocol IPv6 will vastly increase the number of internet addresses available. Whilst IPv4 allows around 4 billion addresses, IPv6 increases this to around 3.4x1038. A major motivation for additional address space, apart from the fact that most of the currently available addresses are already allocated, is that it is foreseen that in the near future the will be an explosion in the number of devices that directly access the internet, each of which will have its own unique IP address

Some obvious examples are mobile phones and cars. Already many mobile phones are used to access the internet via their network provider but currently the connection to the internet is via a system that is similar to Native Address Translation (NAT), which has a considerable number problems. Neither will it be long before all new cars have an IP address and are permanently connected to the internet. Self organising sensor networks will become commonplace and used for such diverse activities as monitoring the environment to public health care. Each node of this network will require an IP address. Items marked with RFID tags (Radio Frequency Identification) will also require IP addresses so that they can be monitored and organised.

In the home the television and the refrigerator will have IP addresses, as will the central heating system and your lighting circuits, intruder alarms, door lock and even your curtains. The internet will become ubiquitous and the connectivity will be almost infinite.

This of course created a massive vulnerability the cyberattack; so much so that the US government is investing $30 million into countermeasures against such a perceived attack. One of their concerns is hardware viruses that could be incorporated into chips. This could then be activated over the internet and used to launch massive coordinated cyberattacks from such items as televisions and refrigerators.This might sound like science fiction but the American Defence Department is taking it very seriously. Effectively they are carrying out research into the ultimate antivirus software in order to protect the integrity of tomorrow's internet.

Computer Viruses for Joe Bloggs

Nowadays computers are part of everyday life, and sit along with eating and sleeping as something we all do every day, and although they provide a wealth of information at our fingertips, a way to make jobs which would take hours take minutes, and of course a great source of entertainment, they are not without their frustrating moments, one of these being of course the computer virus.

We've all heard of them, whether it be in the latest company newsletter about the virus attacking your bosses hard drive, or in the news that the latest computer bug will destroy all life as we know it, the computer virus can be an annoying thing, and whether we know it or not, most of us have ‘contracted' a virus on our PC at some point, but how much do we know about them? For the large majority of computer users a computer virus is something for the ‘Tech Guy' to deal with, and apart from installing anti-virus software there's little we can, or can be bothered, to do.

A computer virus is basically a computer program that has the ability to copy itself and ‘infect' a computer without the owner telling it to do so, or even being aware. The term "virus" is also commonly but wrongly used to refer to other types of malicious software such as malware, adware, and spyware programs. A virus in the true sense of the word can only spread from one computer to another when it is taken there, whether that's over a network or the Internet, or carried it on a removable medium such as a floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB drive. Viruses often increase their chances of spreading to other computers by infecting files on a network file system.

The advent of the internet has meant that viruses can spread much more easily, and regular outbreaks of certain viruses attack computers which are not properly protected by antivirus software . Viruses such as Sasser have in the past knocked out huge networks of computers, putting businesses out of action sometimes for days at a time.

Antispyware programmes

There are millions of internet scams available. With so many people going to the same sources for information, it has become relatively easy over the past few years to integrate spyware into programs so hackers and thieves can track your moves on the internet.

Certain types of spyware can be referred to as tracking cookies. These cookies are small bits of encrypted text that companies place on your hard drive every time you visit their website. They can then review other websites you have visited, how long you have spent visiting particular websites, and whether or not you purchased items from particular websites. If this idea of tracking your internet activity gives you kind of a creepy feeling, you are not alone. For this reason, there are a lot of different types of anti spyware programs available.

What these programs do is clear your hard drive of any tracking cookies that may have been placed on your drive during an internet session. It almost seems to be a kind of "big brother" in which every move you make is being watched. Scam artists use certain kinds of spyware to access your bank and personal information, if you frequently use those websites during internet sessions. Removing tracking cookies is something that can be done relatively easily. There are programs which help you remove spyware from your computer.

Some of the more advanced spyware programs will automatically block cookies from being encrypted onto your drive at all. Some will allow you to remove cookies with a quick scan after each internet session whilst others run regularly at a set time, chosen by you, to ensure spyware programs are run at a somewhat regular interval. Spyware isn't necessarily a bad thing. Companies first used it to be able to target banner ads and other advertisements directly to the user on the internet. They become an issue when there is a lot of information encrypted onto a hard drive. The computer can then begin to run slowly, and cause more errors. It can also be considered an invasion of privacy.

For this reason, it is best to run anti spyware programs at regular intervals to make sure you won't be an easy target for different kinds of internet scams. Running anti spyware programs will also help ensure you can keep your computer running smoothly and free of bugs or glitches which may come with being overloaded with too much information.

Utilities of Antivirus Software

Most computer users have armed their home computer with protection from various harmful viruses that could be acquired from using the internet. Have you ever wondered how these antivirus software programs go about discerning safe files from those that could infect your computer and cause serious damage? There are actually several methods that these antivirus programs use to keep your computer safe from infection.

One method used is known as malicious activity detection. The antivirus software keeps tabs on the entire computer system. If there is any type of abnormal behaviour from any program, the software may begin monitoring it using another of these methods that will be mentioned later in this article.

Another method and perhaps the most well used is signature based detection. The anti-virus software contains a dictionary of the various signatures used by malicious computer viruses. What the software does is scan file contents. Then a comparison is made between those contents and the known virus signatures. When a match is made then the virus is detected.

third approach is known as file analysis. With this method the antivirus software looks for files that have instructions contained within them that are similar to viruses. There are some drawbacks to this approach. In order for this method to work on your computer, the antivirus software must draw upon a significant amount of computer's resources. This makes it difficult to do other activities when the software is running. This method also works well to identify new viruses and their offshoots. Like other methods, on occasion certain files are earmarked as malicious when they are not.

File emulation is another manner in which antivirus software detects virus infection. What occurs with this approach is that a program is run and the software monitors the actions of the software. Based upon these actions, the antivirus software can determine if the program is safe to your computer or if it is malicious and should be removed. This method has some disadvantages. Occasionally, sometimes the antivirus software can incorrectly mark a program as a virus when in fact it is not.

Antivirus Software for Computer

Anyone with a home computer needs to make sure they had adequate protection from potentially devastating computer viruses. Installing antivirus software can help arm your computer system in order to withstand and eliminate these threats. Computer virus if given the opportunity can spread quite easily. The virus is actually a program that replicates itself and begins attacking and infecting your computer files. Like human viruses, these can be spread to other people. Email attachments can become easily infected with the virus and then sent off to other people's home computers. That's why it is also advisable to make sure your antivirus software scans both incoming and outgoing emails for viruses. This can keep your computer safe as well as those computers to which you send email.

As is with human biological viruses, the severity can vary among computer viruses. Some computer virus while annoying do little if any real damage to your system. On the other hand, some can be quite more extreme potentially corrupting key files that your computer needs to operate. This can impair your computer's ability to start up and perform normally. The virus may also rewrite data files you store on your computer. This will corrupt the files and in some cases make them completely irretrievable.

As scary as these viruses sound, you still have the upper hand if you appropriate arm your system with antivirus software. This software typically does a scheduled scan of your system, notifying you of any things that is concerning. Also, the software can scan files on demand. This means if you suspect a file could have a virus you can tell the software to make a quick scan of the item. This is wise when opening any kind of file that did not originate on your computer.

Some things to remember about your antivirus software is that the software developer is constantly releasing updates to the antivirus software. Also, these updates many include new virus definitions. Viruses are always changing and spreading. Make sure you update your antivirus software frequently because even if you are armed with it, it might not protect you. Most programs can allow you to select automatic updates so the program reminds you to update.

Biological viruses can be very concerning to people all over the globe. The recent swine flu epidemic has people worldwide seeking ways to protect themselves from this devastating virus. Computer viruses also can inflict serious damage and when they strike on a grand scale, can cripple computer systems affecting many daily activities. While vaccines aren't logistically feasible for computers there are other methods of protecting your computer system against computer viruses. The most popular method is that of an effective antivirus program. Along with that there are other lengths you can go to in order to protect your system.

Many people believe that simply having their computer scanned weekly for virus is enough. Actually, while that is a good practice, it doesn't prevent the virus from entering your computer system and infecting files. If the scan only occurs weekly the damage could have already occurred. In some cases, the virus changes things enough that the software will not detect the virus during the scan. Think about that little peep-hole that might exist in your front door. You wouldn't let anyone into your home that you didn't recognize, would you? So why let a file into your computer without checking it out first? In order to do this, you just simply scan the file on demand prior to opening it. If the scan results come back indicating a virus, you simply do not open the file and the antivirus software will guide you as far as what to do with the file. Also, make sure you scan email coming into your computer. This is an easy way viruses are spread.

Computer viruses can be devastating when their effects end up in the destruction of important computer files. That's why you should always back up your important files or even digital photos. Some people I know make two copies and give one to a friend in the event of a fire or other situations that could damage the disc.Transferring files can also pose a risk for infection. Say you use a flash drive to move files to another computer to work on. It is advisable to rescan the files prior to returning the updated files to your computer. It's always better to be safe than sorry.

The History of Anti-virus software

Most people who own personal computers are very aware of viruses that can come onto one computer. As a result of this knowledge, they usually want to make sure that they are protected. To make sure that they are protected, they will want to have anti-virus software on their computer. The antivirus software industry has certainly changed a lot over the past few years. To understand the changes that have occurred in the antivirus industry over the years, it is important to be able to take a look at the past.

It has only been in the past 15 years or so that people around the world have had widespread access to the internet. During this time, there has been an explosion in the amount of viruses that are out there. During the early years of the computer generation though, viruses were not as common. Before access to the internet became very common, most viruses were spread from computer to computer with the use of corrupted floppy disks. People of course don't spread viruses from floppy disks today, because floppy disks are not widely available any more. As computers started to get more advanced in the early 1990's, antivirus software began to come to the market. The early years of antivirus software were not very good, because they were not updated very often. In addition, newer and more advanced applications such as word programs and e-mail technology helped to allow viruses to spread quickly to other computers. In the past decade, antivirus software has really started to improve. There is more customer support and there is more regular updates that are done in order to protect people and their equipment. While there has been a lot of progress, viruses are still a major problem. This is because the world counts more and more on technology in order to get things done. In addition, hackers and people that work to evade antivirus software are working literally around the clock in order to beat antivirus software that is currently available on the open market. Antivirus software as a result will also have to improve in order to try to stay one step ahead.

Antivirus software

People want to be protected to make sure that their computer doesn't have any viruses on it. Most people will take advantage of antivirus software to make sure that they are protected. While properly using antivirus software can greatly reduce the threat of having a problem with your computer, there are some drawbacks to using antivirus software. Some of those issues are well known to many people that use computers on a regular basis, while other issues are not known and talked about.

Most people realize that when they run antivirus software on their computer that the computer that they are using will usually run slower than without the software. This is because of a number of reasons. One is that the software will scan and take a look at all off the contents on the computer. In order to be able to conduct this task, the software needs to draw on the resources that the computer has to offer. Some people will complain that the computer will be so slow that they will not be able to work on the computer while the virus software is testing. Most people though, will take the trade-off in performance that the anti-virus takes away in exchange for not having any further problems with their computer.

Some ThingsConsidered When Creating a Website

If you have decided to create your own website, web development programs will help you make your dream come true. Those who want to start up a business creating sites for others should learn HTML and other skills required for website development. But ordinary Internet users who would like to have their own sites just need ideally suited website building software and a few hours to complete the process.

You do not need to be qualified in site development to go for perfectly suited development programs. The generally used ones are the so-called WYSIWYG builders (What You See IS What You Get builders). They can be easily handled by everybody who is well aware of the word processor basics. All you need to do is to select templates, type them in your text & by means of editing tools to make necessary changes, choose colours and include photos & - there you go. No need to worry about links. They are added automatically. So, when you are ready, simply click the submit button for the procedure to be completed & get you site published. In fact it is believed to be the most convenient way to create a site.

Website hosting packages usually include WYSIWYG builders that come in 2 types: on-line versions to be used anywhere & versions to be downloaded. You use them off-line & can upload your webpage upon termination. As a rule there are tutorials and demonstration programs to help you figure out what a computer program is able to do. Now and then there are also trial versions available. As far as payment goes, a web host company whose website development software you use usually charges you for a website page.

So, before you have purchased web building software, try free demos. It will help you decide if the chosen software completely complies with your needs such as the graphics & interactive options including surveys, membership options, message boards that you are thinking to get on your site. Think whether you would like to be independent of a web server company or not & whether the software is user-friendly enough.

Collect information on various site builders before coming to a firm decision. Make a draft of each web page you want to have in order to facilitate the search for appropriate web building tools.For certain you will get a website of your dream then!

AJAX

window.google_render_ad();
AJAX = Asynchronous JavaScript and XML

AJAX uses the following web standards:

• JavaScript

• XML

• HTML

• CSS

AJAX applications are browser- and platform-independent.

Asynchronous JavaScript + XML is not a new technology or a new programming language It is a term coined in 2005 by Jesse James Garrett, which describes a "new" approach to using a number of existing technologies together, including: HTML or XHTML, Cascading Style Sheets, JavaScript, The Document Object Model, XML, XSLT, and the XMLHttpRequest object. It is a new technique for creating better, faster, and more interactive web applications.When these technologies are combined in the AJAX model, web applications are able to make quick, incremental updates to the user interface without reloading the entire browser page. This makes the application faster and more responsive to user actions.

With AJAX, a JavaScript can communicate directly with the server, with the XMLHttpRequest object. With this object, a JavaScript can trade data with a web server, without reloading the page.AJAX uses asynchronous data transfer (HTTP requests) between the browser and the web server, allowing web pages to request small bits of information from the server instead of whole pages. The AJAX technique makes Internet applications smaller, faster and more user-friendly.

AJAX is about better Internet-applications

Internet-applications have many benefits over desktop applications; they can reach a larger audience, they are easier to install and support, and easier to develop.However, Internet-applications are not always as "rich" and user-friendly as traditional desktop applications and most Web applications are slow and tedious. In the traditional Web application, the interaction between the customer and the server goes like this:

1. Customer accesses Web application

2. Server processes request and sends data to the browser while the customer waits

3. Customer clicks on a link or interacts with the application

4. Server processes request and sends data back to the browser while the customer waits

5. etc....

There is a lot of customer waiting. It’s a model adapted from the Web’s original use as a hypertext medium.

How Ajax is Different

An Ajax application eliminates the start-stop-start-stop nature of interaction on the Web by introducing an intermediary — an Ajax engine — between the user and the server. Instead of loading a webpage, at the start of the session, the browser loads an Ajax engine — written in JavaScript and usually tucked away in a hidden frame. This engine is responsible for both rendering the interface the user sees and communicating with the server on the user’s behalf. The Ajax engine allows the user’s interaction with the application to happen asynchronously — independent of communication with the server. So the user is never staring at a blank browser window and an hourglass icon, waiting around for the server to do something.

Ajax Acts as an Intermediary

The Ajax engine works within the Web browser (through JavaScript and the DOM) to render the Web application and handle any requests that the customer might have of the Web server. The beauty of it is that because the Ajax engine is handling the requests, it can hold most information in the engine itself, while allowing the interaction with the application and the customer to happen asynchronously and independently of any interaction with the server.

Asynchronous

This is the key. In standard Web applications, the interaction between the customer and the server is synchronous. This means that one has to happen after the other. If a customer clicks a link, the request is sent to the server, which then sends the results back.With Ajax, the JavaScript that is loaded when the page loads handles most of the basic tasks such as data validation and manipulation, as well as display rendering the Ajax engine handles without a trip to the server. At the same time that it is making display changes for the customer, it is sending data back and forth to the server. But the data transfer is not dependent upon actions of the customer.Some of the real time examples of Ajax are

Take a look at Google Suggest/GMail. Watch the way the suggested terms update as you type, almost instantly. Now look at Google Maps.,Yahoo Maps and Windows Live Local Zoom in. Use your cursor to grab the map and scroll around a bit. Again, everything happens almost instantly, with no waiting for pages to reload.Google Suggest and Google Maps are two examples of a new approach to web applications using AJAX.

Limitations of AJAX:

AJAX will not work in all web browsers. As its name suggests, AJAX requires JavaScript. This alone means that AJAX applications will not work in web browsers and devices that do not support JavaScript. For this reason it is not accessible to many typical Web users.

Future of AjAX:

The biggest challenges in creating Ajax applications are not technical. The core Ajax technologies are mature, stable, and well understood. Instead, the challenges are for the designers of these applications: to forget what we think we know about the limitations of the Web, and begin to imagine a wider, richer range of possibilities.AJAX is a tool that web developers can use to create smarter web applications that behave better than traditionalweb applications when interacting with humans.

Web Design-Atlanta Web Design

When they say “first impressions count” this is especially true when it comes to finding a web design company to design your website. For this reason, many business owners seeking a website designer will choose a company that “looks the part” and assume therefore that they will be able to provide the best solution. So how can you find a website design firm in Atlanta that delivers the most professional looking website design for your company? The secret is – you don’t just consider how it looks! What most business owners don’t realize is that how a website looks is only half of the story. You need to take into account factors like navigation, how easy is it to find what your visitors want, and does the website firm understand the importance of keywords and relevant content on specific pages that can attract or steer visitors through an invisible funnel towards an action you want them to take.

There are so many choices and if look and feel is the only objective in your mind then knowing which Atlanta website design company to hire can be a very confusing and daunting process.

A top website design firm will not only design a professional website that represents you in an impressive way, but also focuses on the unique features of your business to provide functionality that leads your visitors into an effective lead generation or sales process. This can be achieved by providing opportunities for your visitors to follow a process or by interacting with your website e.g. by requesting or downloading relevant information like a report or brochure via an opt in form.

Armed with a wider perspective on choosing a website design firm for your business, you can determine if your prospective Atlanta web design firm can deliver what you need. So with this in mind ask yourself what are you looking for and what you want to achieve when considering hiring an Atlanta Web Design Firm?

1. Will they demonstrate to you that they understand your customers and unique selling proposition in order to create the right solution for your business

2. Can they clearly and accurately represent your business in a professional manner through your websites design and navigation structure

3. Do they offer features and functions that are targeted to your customers to funnel them into your lead generation or sales process

4. Will they offer a solution that delivers value for money that delivers an excellent return on investment, whatever Atlanta website design firm you choose

As a business owners seeking an Atlanta web design firm you’ll want to ask questions to help you determine how they can meet these criteria. Once you know what to ask, you can easily weed out the website design firms that are not going to deliver the solution you need and be better informed when making your choice.

Advanced Technology and DVI Cables

As technology becomes more advanced, Digital-Visual-Interface or in short DVI is the greatest digital interface that manufacturers have created; particularly to be used on your AV products, it is designed to be used with video so as to maximize the visual quality of your digital display devices.

These digital display devices can be your flat panel LCD computer display or even digital projectors. The DVI cable are made to be compatible with High-Definition-Multimedia-Interface, aka HDMI

Since High-Definition is becoming more popular among consumers, it is crucial for you to choose the right or most suitable DVI cable for your product to maximise its capability, as DVI can also be used on video cards that include both a VGA and DVI output port.

There are currently three types of DVI formats or connections on the market. They include DVI Digital, DVI analogue and lastly DVI Integrated, which transfers in both digital and analogue.

Each of these formats offer consumers different end results of quality composition, such that if you want the best of both worlds for your video cards you may want to choose the DVI integrated, whereas you can go for either one of the other two formats, if you would like a true digital or high resolution analogue for your visual display.

Currently, the official DVI equipment is set to 7.5m in length. However, the maximum length is never exact as manufacturers are creating stronger cards and bigger monitors as well as booster and junctions for longer cables.

Mobile phone diversity

The world of mobile phones is as diverse as it is vast. From the simple to the sublime, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The choices are seemingly limitless, however with a bit of mobile phone savvy and few minutes on the internet doing ones homework, an intelligent selection can be made to suit the needs of every consumer.

The basics cover just that, the basics. These phones hold programmed telephone numbers, identify callers, and perform the function of making and receiving calls. From there, it gets really fun! Many of the high-end phones do basically the same things: ringtones, caller ID, voice dialing, GPS positioning, Bluetooth compatibility, 3.2 megapixel or better camera, mp3 player, web browser, more memory than the computer that put the first man on the moon. If you’re looking for a ‘good phone’, these are a must.

And here’s where the competition gets interesting. At this point all the mobile makers begin trying to outdo each other.

The Samsung Omnia has some impressive features such as panoramic photo capabilities, video calling and WiFi.

The coolest feature: it will scan a business card and place it into contacts, then send it back to the home computer! It also boasts the Microsoft operating system. The iPhone has endless applications; very handy if you need to straighten a shelf in the middle of the day. If a music phone is what you seek, the Nokia 5800 Xpress Music deserves a look. At only £199.95, its price is as impressive as its features.

These high-enders are aptly named smartphones. And although during the initial days of ownership it’s easy to believe they are actually smarter than you and trying to take over the world, they are marvelous pieces of equipment, truly meant to make your life easier.

Equipped as pda’s, mp3 players, mobile computers, gps systems, party planners, alarm clocks, am/fm radios, cameras, video cameras, text messengers, address books, and more, long gone are the days these devices are simply our mobile phones.
