There are lots of free alternative to commercial software these days. Microsoft Security Essentials by Microsoft is a good software to try if you want to prevent your computer from being invaded by security threats such as virus and still have not installed any antivirus program yet.

This free antivirus protection only needs you to have licensed Windows OS running on your computer for you to be able to install it. It supports Windows XP and later releases including Windows Vista and Windows 7. Regarding reliability, there’s not much to say as I’ve been only using it for a few weeks on Windows 7 platform without any other Antivirus program running but so far I’ve maintained my computer virus-free.

Microsoft Security Essentials can get automatic updates, performs real time detection, and other basic antivirus function. It has a comprehensive malware database and a simple graphical user interface. It runs very quitely in the background and does not compromise with computer performance since it’s light in resources.

How do I extract WinRar archives without using WinRar in Windows OS?

Many files in the internet are compressed using WinRar. Some of them are splitted into different parts using the program. As a user, you might wonder how you can extract those WinRar archives without having to install WinRar since the program itself isn’t free. It’s a shareware which you can use until forever but to avoid getting annoying message after the trial is over, you might consider a switch.

Fortunately there are two free alternatives that are worth to be used in order to deal with Rar files. The first one is 7zip. 7zip is an open source Windows utility for manipulating archives and it works with 7z, ZIP, GZIP, BZIP2, and TAR. For the other formats like WinRar, this utility is able to unpack them. To learn more about 7zip, here’s the website.

The second one is IZArc. Like 7zip, it supports many format and has the ability to unpack WinRar files. Just make sure that you don’t install additional unneeded software that comes with the installation file. Visit Izarg.org to learn more about this utility.

These two software are similar but if you want a very friendly user interface IZArc seems to have the advantages.

These are some of the things you can do to save your iPod/iPhone if they got accidentally soaked in water. Like we all know, it’s unfortunate that Apple doesn’t cover damage due to water in their warranty.

So, these steps are worth to try before spending any money for a new ipod. Mine was a washing machine disaster, but I think any water-related accident may be applied here.

Newbies who are interested to learn internet marketing now have the opportunity to do so by subscribing to a free 12-week course by Shoemoney.

One can also join it for the purpose of adding more internet marketing knowledge to what one has now and apply them coherently with the course.

I had received my first week lesson of ShoeMoney Xtreme course last week. Though the first lesson (2.83mb pdf file) is only a preface it has covered many things that we should expect and should not expect from internet marketing. It cuts out the nonsense about making money online easily which can be found in other marketing books and videos. Readers also get to know the requirements (psychologically) and if he/she is actually fit enough to dive into the internet marketing world.

I like the end part of each lesson where we are given assignments to finish in order to be prepared for the next week’s course since knowledge without effort to apply is useless. Shoemoney has teamed up with MySpace, Facebook, and Microsoft to give you free money to spend on their advertising platforms so that your newly-created business/website will get traffic.
