Free antivirus software recommendations

Thu, 2009-01-22 23:13 by admin · Forum/category:

Here are three recommendations.

  • The new kid on the block is Microsoft's free antivirus program, which I am using now. An elegant, inconspicuous program that doesn't get in my way. I usually have the real-time protection switched off for performance reasons, which has the sole disadvantage that the icon is red with a white cross, warning me about the reduced security. But you don't have to do that.
  • Free Avira AntiVir – a nice program, apart from some self-advertisements.

Working with Adobe LiveCycle Designer

Introduction

I've been working with Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2 for a while, designing forms that end users can fill-in on their computer screen and then email back to the company or administration at the click of a button.

My general impression is good. LiveCycle Designer is an impressive and extensive tool that is mostly up for the job.

Nokia PC Suite keeps showing new defects version after version after version. The message store seems to be totally messed up. I was unable to restore messages saved on the computer back to the phone, not even by sending it to my own phone. Nokia has a track record of not valuing user data.

I have windows XP on my HP laptop. I am not hardware or software savvy so I need help. Someone told me I am running on RAM only because I can't boot certain programs and that I have a widows media plug-in problem but I don't understand what to do about it. I also get a wm_exe error.

This problem just started. I try to boot Dreamweaver8 and get the following error (and cannot boot the program) seen here in the screen capture I uploaded http://mallee.biz/images/dreamweavererror.jpg

I tried restoring to 2 weeks ago. I tried uninstall and reinstall.

Can someone help please?
