How To Install Multiple Antivirus Programs
We always wish our computers to be secure from damages especially from Viruses.We use Anti-virus software for our computer in order to protect it from getting viruses. But none of them can be 100% secure to save our computers from Viruses. However we also may think of installing multiple anti-viruses at a same time on our computer.But installing two or more antivirus is not possible , because antivirus software nowadays are so complex and they may conflict with each other causing crashes and blue screens.It also leads to system resources hog and slows the computer down.
Recently found a tool called Multi AV Scan developed by Gakh from HackHound that allows you to run on-demand scan using 10 types antivirus on your computer.It is possible to run two or more antivirus programs with this third party software. Multi AV Scan is a standalone software and it does not provide real time protection.It is not required to uninstall your current antivirus to run Multi AV Scan.It currently supports A-Squared, Avira AntiVir, BitDefender, ClamWin, DrWeb, Ikarus, McAfee, Solo, Sophos, VBA32.
This program is little buggy.It will continue Scanning the whole time without progress unless you have to put the file that you want to scan in the same folder where MultiScan.exe installed.If you’re using Avira AntiVir, you need to place Avira license key HBEDV.KEY (you can get it for free here) file in \AVs\AntiVir\ folder.It also consume more resources during updating and scanning.It works with XP and Vista

How to Block Any Installed Application From Lunching on Your Computer?
When you are sharing your computer with others or you do not want that other persons run all installed applications in your PC.For example you want to disable web browsing 
AppLocker a freeware provides a complete solution to block any programs from being executed on a target computer.The application will display a list of popular programs including Microsoft Word, Internet Explorer or Nero Burning Rom at startup.
These applications will be displayed even if the programs are not installed on the system. A click on a checkbox will block the software on the computer system.
AppLocker can be used in single PC and multiple PC’s. If you are intended for multiple machines, it should be installed on one machine, then the target folder is to be copied to a shared location and the executable file should be run from that location. By doing so, AppLocker does not have to be installed on each machine individually.
You can lock the programs by clicking the “Configure” button to open the configuration window. Type the caption you want displayed on the ‘Lock application list’. Then, type the programs executable file name and click the ‘Add’ button to add new applications.
The drawback of the software blocker is that there is no protection of the application itself.

General Tips:
* Always wipe the CD from the center outward with stratight spoke-like strokes. Wiping CDs in circles will create more scratches.
* Do not scratch the graphics layer as you cannot repair the disc.
HINT: Hold the disc up to a light with the graphics layer facing the light source. If you can see light thru the scratches at any point then the disc may be irreparable and or exhibit loading or playing errors.
* Clean your Disc players lens regularly with a suitable product to ensure optimal viewing pleasure.
* Make sure to use a soft, lint-free cloth to clean both sides of the disc. Wipe in a straight line from the centre of the disc to the outer edge.
* If wiping with a cloth does not remove a fingerprint or smudge, use a specialized DVD disc polishing spray to clean the disc.
* Only handle the disc by its outer edge and the empty hole in the middle. This will help prevent fingerprints, smudges or scratches
