Please note I am not giving advice on if the pc is clean or not or how to remove anything 0r if infact there is anything to remove

read that. Those files would likley be removed I a clean up. And yes the typical I am a Linux uber God atittude comes out finally.

The only moving parts left are the CD unit and the processor fan. Battery lasts much, much longer, too. I Know what you mean. I prefer having the storage capabilities a hard drive offers 32 gig SD card instead of HDD. A 128 gig Sd Card Costs about 60 bucks.SSD Is about the same. I think we will soo...

working with HDD only Aww that would mean I would have to buy 1.This thing came with no HDD I got it on ebay for 50 bucks It booted into bios in the foto on ebay so all was good. and my brother in law "re packed" the battery for free the old battery seemed fine to me. I have no plans to a...

Interesting about the battery life. How much longer can you stretch a working session when working with SD card rather than HDD in battery mode? The battery is new and with the sceen turned off and nothing else It ran for 10 hours thats without me touching it. Connected to the net but idle. dont kn...

I am sorry With the speed this set up has, booting as I do from usb using a SDcard instead of a Hard Drive for storage, The hours i get on battery life and other benifits I can see this machine and others like it lasting another 10 years. So From now on I will never call any pc "stolen from no...

Sorry my bad. I run Precise Puppy 5.7.1 Retro Fatty Edition. February version.By csipesz http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=91425&start=30 slightly slower performance (1 to 2%). Well still makes it faster than a 2000 dollar Laptop with Windows 8 on it, So I will suffer the speed loss.....

@ Oscar

I run precise 5.7.1 fatty on a 2x Intel(R) Core(TM) 2 Duo Cpu U7700@ 1.33 ghz see full specs in my sig. And its great. Should I be looking at Wary?

Mine is best. The XP boots in VM.

Please wait while the system installs 74 security updates As a Windows user this is normal. Those that use Unbuntu or 1 of its off shoots Mint or Zorin will be familiar with this also. You can set Windows to do updates at any time you want . Even set the PC to sleep and wake up to do what ever task...

Please note I am not giving advice on if the pc is clean or not or how to remove anything 0r if infact there is anything to remove I AM NOT A TRAINED MALWARE REMOVAL EXPERT.... yet.. remember we are only playing a game Searching for "*Slick*" C:\Program Files\FLStudio\SamplesPDJ\DRUM&...

Lets play a game. This is just 1 of the basic scans for Windows that a trained malware removal person would use. This scan is looking for toolbars. We will play other games soon. Both the 32 and 64 bit System Look are included. The point of this game IS NOT to clean up a pc, But to see just how clea...

Not working in puppy. With windows you plug in the USB and explorer opens showing you details of my BSL And other stuff. I am a insulin dependent diabetic and MUST use this daily. ATM I have to use Windows on a pc or VM. Blood glucose monitoring has a smart design. Imagine you could monitor your blo...

gcmartin Is correct in my humble opinion If Linux Any Type ever wants a fair bigger share of the market they will have to keep up with what people want. I do not want to have to type a whole bunch of stuff to update my browser I just wanna point n click. or Having to update PPM to get the latest bro...

1. I wouldn't need to pay any ransom; I'd just scrap the HDD. That is 1 method, Another is formating. Or just removing the EXE. Although CryptoLocker itself is readily removed, files remain encrypted in a way which researchers have considered infeasible to break. BUT What happens if you are a compa...

It comes as an email attachment, or wrapped in an exe to a known prog a requiring user intervention then? Yes playing with tools sounds fun....always curious. I used to visit dodgy links inemails just to see what would happen. Perhaps start a fresh thread and post the link here mike In most cases m...

We can update windows till we are blue in the face - it is still no guarantee of safety. Correct. Most of the time its human error that infects a pc, Most of the guys here Know pc's. But what about the avarage mum or dad who buy a pc for little Timmy they are bombarded with the update update messag...

How did you learn this? http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/ Just things like that. A vulnerability was discovered in the OpenJDK JRE related to information disclosure and data integrity. An attacker could exploit this to expose sensitive data over the network. (CVE-2014-0411) Several vulnerabilities were di...

Somebody sent me this, As a Windows user who has had to call tech support I have been thru this.

mmmmm beer....... fixes everything.

The NSA is unable to assist end users with backup and retrieval requests Seems unfair to me. If I delete or otherwise mess up my files I should be able to go to them and get a copy. And If as a result of NSA intrusion into my pc something goes wrong I think they should be obliged to give me a clean...
