free windows software to help secure you
with how malicious people are online, it’s important to protect your data and protect your identity. these programs are our key tools in making windows safer.
Free anti-virus just doens’t get better. This is the most basic version of the software that AVG offers, but it does an amazing job. the current verion of this software introduced an awesome anti-rootkit component (previously available as it’s own tool)
this replaces 30% of what i do when i clean computers. it fixes basic registry errors, cleans junk files and even file-by-file defrags – great to run in the background
this program has been a staple anti-spyware program for a long time. it’s resident protector monitors registry changes live, and it can immunize against 180,000 known problems
use this program to quickly remove temp files from your computer, and to fix many registry issues.
internet explorer is one of the worst things that has ever happened to browsing. it doesn’t honor code standards, it contains many vulnerabilities, and it’s not as fast as other options.
the two browsers below are my highly recommended alternatives (mac, win, lin compatible)
google’s product….amazing
mozilla corp’s baby that launched them into fame, a remake of the famous netscape navigator
Lekhonee Desktop WordPress Client
This is officially my first post via the Lekhonee client for publishing to WordPress sites. The hardest part was setting up the site address, but once I actually RTFM-ed I realized I had to double check a setting in WordPress->Writing to make sure the XML-RPC protocol was enabled. Check it out if you are looking for lightweight ways of making simple osts. anything with major pictures or custom layoout should probably be done through the WordPress WYSIWYG. At Original Computing, we use Lekhonee in low bandwidth situations for clients to make sure they have a stable post-writing environment.
and its free (as in beer)!
