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.
