Hyper-V

• Hyper-V is a server application that enables users to run a broad range of operating systems simultaneously on a single physical server.

Spam

Spam generally refers to unwanted commercial e-mail that is typically sent in bulk to thousands or even millions of recipients. There are some gray areas that we hope won’t trip you up: Some people may include the e-mail produced by mass-mailing viruses or Trojan horses as spam. Similarly, some people may include e-mail from a company they have done business with as spam. Also, if you subscribe to some e-mail list and at some time in the future you no longer want it, that might be spam. 

Use Keyboard as Mouse

If your mouse is not working and you don't wish to wait till you get a new mouse, you would definitely like to know how you can use your keyboard as your mouse. It is easy to use your mouse as keyboard in windows using the On Screen Keyboard utility, but it is also possible to do the reverse.

All you need to do is Windows 8, Windows 7 or Vista
1. Open Ease of Access Center by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking Ease of Access, and then clicking Ease of Access Center.
2. Click Make the mouse easier to use.
3. Under Control the mouse with the keyboard, select the Turn on Mouse Keys check box. You can also increase the acceleration and speed of your mouse movements according to your needs. You can alternately press the Alt+Shift+Num Lock combination to instantly activate the mouse keys.
For laptops, this will only work if your laptop keyboard has a numeric keypad or alternative keys which you can enable by pressing the Number Lock Key or the Function key. On my laptop number 6 key of the numeric keypad moves the mouse pointer left, number 4 key moves the mouse pointer right, number 2 key moves it down, number 8 key moves the mouse pointer up, number 5 and + key serve as right click while the number 0 key works as left click.

How to Avoid Malware

Here are some tips to ensure malware is not given access to your computer:

• Keep your computer up to date.

• Keep your browser up to date.

• Install good antimalware.

• Download free software only from sites you know and trust.

• Avoid clicking links inside pop-up windows. 

  Keep Your Computer up to Date

  To keep Windows up to date, Microsoft uses Windows Update. Windows Update should run automatically on your PC. However, you should check if your PC is up to date. To check for Windows updates:

  1. Click Start, Run, and type:

  a. WindowsXP:wupdmgr

  b. Windows Vista/7: wuapp 

  2. PressEnter.

  3. Click Install Updates

  You may need to download the Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA) tool, which checks to see if your copy of Windows is genuine.

  Windows may need to reboot your machine several times as new updates are installed.

  Your computer is now up to date.

  Keep Your Browser up to Date

  Browsers are a common source of computer vulnerabilities because they use so many plugins and programs that create loop holes that malware can exploit. To update your browser:

  Internet Explorer

  If you are using Internet Explorer (IE) as your browser, use Windows Update—explained above—to keep it up to date.

  Mozilla Firefox

  To check for updates for Mozilla Firefox:

  1. Open Firefox.

  2. Click Help > Check for Updates.

  3. If updates are available, follow the on-screen instructions.
