How Safe is Your PC?
Web browsers are the most common target of an attack. Malware and Spyware is get into the PC through modified websites which trigger buffer overruns for instance; hackers can thus crash the browser.
Following are some of the most common ways users are fooled .
- Links can lead you to malicious material such as hidden drive-by downloads that attempt to silently install software onto your computer without you doing anything or knowing about it.
- Links can also lead you to a phishing site designed by scammers to trick a user into revealing confidential information such as account passwords for banking or social networking sites.
- There are downloads that seem perfectly safe, such as a video, screensaver (screensavers are the most notorious) or some even offer to give you security protection, but they are actually malware.
- A link from a friend might not be safe either. Your friend’s computer could have been infected and now is part of a botnet being used to send malware and dangerous links.
- Tweeters often use URL shortening services such as tinyurl.com to obtain a shorter URL that fits within the 140 characters restriction. This means you don’t know what site your are really going to until you are there.

Customize the History Settings in Firefox
When you visit a web page , the browser records the web page location in it’s browser history. The idea of this is that if you remember visiting a site you can look it up in the browser history. How far back in time you can look up in the browser history depends on how you have the browser set up. How the browser history is organized also depends on the browser.
There are various reasons to clear browser history:
- To protect privacy when other people have access to the same computer.
- To generally “clean up” computer system to conserve space on the hard drive.
- Someone designing a website needs to test the website for changes in link styles or additional links.
In the latest version (Firefox3.5),you can set Firefox to remember or not remember the browsing history permanently.Follow the instructions to set it.
Open Firefox>Navigate to Tools>Options>Privacy Tab.
Here you can set whether or not Firefox will your remember information about your web browsing like which sites you have visited.

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.

Get Into Free Sites Without Registering
ARE YOU TIRED of having to register on a free Web site just to read a news article or view some pictures of your relatives? Rather than registering on such sites (and risking a barrage of annoying spam), many people forget about the news item or put off seeing how their nieces and nephews are doing until their next vacation.
But here is an easy way to get members-only content without enduring the hassle of signing up for an account.Whenever family and friends send me links to registration required sites, just turn to Bug-MeNot (www.bugmenot.com ) to slip past most of these requirements. BugMeNot is a site that helps web users get around website registration roadblocks, is back up after disappearing for several days because of server hosting issues.
BugMeNot holds pre-made user names and passwords so that visitors can use them to read content on thousands of registration-only news sites.It also encourages users to use such fake e-mail account services as Mailinator and Spamgourmet to create such accounts. However, it does not allow them to add accounts for pay websites, as this could potentially put BugMeNot in legal trouble. BugMeNot also claims to remove accounts for any web site that requests that they do not provide accounts for non-registered users.
Features
If you use Internet Explorer,go to the BugMeNot Web site and type in the URL of the site that you’d like to log in to. BugMeNot will return a list of user names and passwords that you can use to log in successfully.The BugMeNot Firefox Extension automates the service for Firefox users.After you install the BugMeNot extension, the next time you encounter a required log-in prompt for a free site, right-click the username or e-mail address box and select Login with BugMeNot. Re peat the process if the initial attempt doesn’t work; the plug-in might have used old information the first time around. Otherwise,
you should slide into the registration-required content without a hitch.
