Quick Tip

Howard from UK writes:

I am using Windows 7 Home Premium. When I first installed it the aero snap feature worked, but now does not. Can you advise how to get it working again?

Aero Snap, the feature which automatically expands windows when you drag them near the edges of the screen, can easily be enabled/disabled.

Step 1.) Click on Start, then click Control Panel.

Step 2.) In the search box in the upper right hand corner type: accessibility. This should bring up the options for Ease of Access Center. Click on View current accessibility settings.

Step 3.) Click on Make it easier to focus on tasks, and then click Prevent windows from being automatically arranged when moved to the edge of the screen to disable aero snap. If you want to enable it, make sure the box is unchecked.

Step 4.) Click Apply, then OK.

That's it! Aero Snap is now enabled. You can learn more about this feature at:

Firefox Open All In Tabs

You know that nifty bookmark area in Firefox? The one right above the place where all the tabs open up? Well, mine has a fair number of favorite links I can click on, but I find that most of the time I end up opening all of them in a browsing session anyways.

That's why the Open all in tabs option is so appealing to me. Just right-click in a blank area on your bookmarks bar and click Open all in tabs.

Poof! All of you bookmarks bar links will open at once and you're good to go!

Note: Google Chrome has a similar option (accessed the same way) called Open all bookmarks. This option, by default, opens each bookmark in its own separate tab.

Router

Beautiful Sleek Design - Slim - Black - Perfect!

Connect ALL of Your Computers to One BLISTERING FAST Router!

All Routers Are NOT Created Equal!

So there you are, thinking that your 802.11 N router is the best you can get. It's not really all that fast, but as far as you know it won't get any better.

So you go on with your computing life, meandering through your work, surfing the net, etc. but you can't help but wonder if there's something better out there. Something with FULL THROTTLE speed. Something that gives you a whole lot of convenient options.

As you can guess - we've got it! It's a router like NONE that you've ever seen before! You've gotta check out what this thing can do for you!

Let's Talk Speed. Insane, Gigabit Powered Speed!

Most important first, right? So yes, this router is 802.11 N compatible. The newest and fastest type currently available on the market. But there's something that REALLY sets this one apart from the others.

See, most of the new routers you get today come with 100mbit speed. Not bad, but not great, either. You still find yourself waiting longer than you'd like, downloads take too long, etc. You'd think with all this new technology that they'd be able to perform faster...

Well guess what? This router is powered by GIGABIT SPEED - WHICH IS 10X FASTER THAN 100MBIT!

Did you catch that? This router is 10X faster than the other 802.11 N routers! That's going to make a huge difference, don't you think?

Dual USB Ports - Connect & Share Everything!

This is about to blow your mind! On the back of this router, you'll find 2 USB ports. Go ahead and connect a flash drive, a hard drive, a printer - whatever - and this will share it with all computers running on that network!

For example, let's say you're at home using this router. There's 4 other computers in your home being used by other family members. You have some important info on a flash drive that you'd like to share with everyone on the network. What do you do?

Plug the flash drive into the back...AND EVERYONE ON YOUR NETWORK IS ABLE TO AUTOMATICALLY HAVE ACCESS!

That's right - anything you plug into the dual USB ports will show up on all computers on the network under a "shared hard drive" granting them FULL access! It's a brand new, amazing upgrade to ALL existing routers!

4 Wired Ethernet Ports!

You'll LOVE this. See, maybe you have a couple of older computers at home. Well guess what? With this router, you can directly connect them using ethernet cords, and they'll be able to share that speed!

This is especially useful if you have a few older computers around the house that you only use on occasion, for particular projects that don't require wireless connection. Well, now you can have the best of both worlds!

This router is all about sharing, and it's all about high speed. Perfect!

The Specs Will BLOW YOUR MIND!

So now that you know what you're getting, let's go ahead and sum it all up.

802.11 N access - 300 Mbps Transfer Rates - As good as it gets!
Gigabit Speed - 10X FASTER Than Standard 100mbit Speed!
Dual USB Power: Plug in Devices and Share With Your Entire Network!
4 Wired Ethernet Ports - Take Old Computers to an Entirely New Level!
Slim, Black and Sleek. The PERFECT Design that Stays Out of Your Way!

I have a Gmail account and have heard that you can set it so emails are sorted as they come in, instead of having to go through the label and move process. Do you know if this is true? If so, can you tell me how? Thanks!

Gmail is the fastest growing choice for email, and its rapid development has attracted an ever-growing number of users. However, with this rise in usage, the number of different types of mails we receive has increased too. There are various mails like newsletters, deals and offers, chat and Facebook notifications and what not. With so many different categories filling up our inbox, it's extremely crucial that we have a management strategy for our emails to prevent important ones from getting lost in the clutter.

Using Gmail Filters to Categorize Emails

Filters are an amazing way to take control of your incoming mails in Gmail. With filters, you can sort mail into different folders as and when they arrive. This sorting is done automatically, and creating a filter is just a one-time process.

Before we go ahead with the sorting, it is extremely important to formulate a strategy for dividing mails into categories.

Let us consider a scenario: I am an active social media user and blogger – I read newsletters, and I am subscribed to deals for my city. Therefore, my probable labels are Social Media, Blog comments, Newsletters and Deals.

Now that you have decided on your label names, it is time to create them.

I am using the new look on Gmail, which has the feature of creating filters without going to the settings page at all.

Step 1: Select some of the mails you want to filter into one label and select "Filter messages like these" from the drop-down menu.

gmail-filter

Step 2: Test a search with the filters as applied by you, and make sure no irrelevant results get through. Now, we are ready to create a filter using this search. Click on the link saying, "Create a filter with this search".

gmail-filter-options

Step 3: Now that we have a number of emails matching this search, we will decide what to do with them. If you already have a label suitable for these emails, then simply create the filter. Or else, click on "Choose a label" as shown.

gmail-filter-settings

Step 4: If you click on choose a label, it will show you the following list. Click on "New label…" and a window will appear asking you to enter the name of the label.

gmail-filter-settings-new-label

As you can see, I am naming my label DB Backup.

gmail-filter-settings-new-label-name

Step 5: Select the checkbox beside the "Create a filter" button that says, "Also apply filter to (n) matching conversations".

Click on "Create a filter" and we are done.

I do a search in the address bar and I get Yahoo results. How do I change it to get Google results? I have Windows Vista Home Basic.

Hi, Tim!

When you search for information on the internet, the browser you use often determines which search provider is used. However, changing your search provider is really easy.

Since you have Windows Vista, I am going to assume that you use Microsoft Internet Explorer. If you use another browser like Firefox or Chrome, just respond in the comments to this article and we'll get back to you as soon as possible.

You mentioned that you do a search in the address bar. Usually, the search bar is right next to the address bar, so I'll show you how to change the providers for both, just in case!

Change Search Provider in the Search Bar

Changing the provider here is really easy.

1) Locate the search bar at the top right of your screen. It is the empty fill-in-the blank bar located on the right in the picture below.

Address and Search Bars

2) Click inside the box. A list of available search providers will display for you as shown in the picture below.

Search Bar

3) Simply click on the provider you want to use, in this case, Google. When you do, the icon at the left of the search bar will change to the one that you have chosen.

That's it! This is by far the easiest way to change the search provider from the available options. However, to change the search to always use Google, complete the following steps.

Change Search Provider in the Address Bar

Changing the provider here requires a few more steps but can easily be done.

1) First access your browser.

Address and Search Bars

2) At the top of the screen, look for the word Tools on the Menu bar.

Note: if your menu bar is not available, just hit your Alt key on your keyboard.

3) On the Tools menu, choose Internet Options. The Internet Options window will appear.

Tools Window

4) On the Internet Options window, on the General tab, locate the Search section in the lower part of the screen. It is highlighted in a red box for you below.

Internet Options Screen

5) In that section, notice the Settings button. Click on it. The Manage Add-Ons window will pop up.

Manage Add-Ons Window

6) On this screen to the left, click on the Search Providers link. The box to the right will list the currently installed search providers.

-To change providers, simply click on the provider you want. Here is where you would click on "Google."

-To make it your default provider, click on the Set as default button located at the bottom right of the screen. It is highlighted in yellow in the window above. When you change the default, notice that the word default is now next to the search provider you have indicated.

-To choose a search provider not currently listed, click on the Find more search providers… located at the bottom left of the screen. It is in a red box in the screen above.

7) When you are finished, simply click the Close button.

That's it, Tim! Let me know if you have any questions!

WS App Review: Atomic Web Browser

atomicweb

Have you ever used the web browser built into your iOS device and wished it had more functionality? Atomic Web not only brings some of the needed desktop web browser capabilities, but also improves on some mobile-specific features.

Since you're reading this review on the web, I'll assume you've got the basics of web browsing down and have used mobile safari (the built in web browser) in iOS. So what is improved by atomic web browser? Let's start with tabbed browsing.

Martha from MI asks:

What is over-clocking? Is this okay to do to my computer… I mean it won't hurt it, will it?

Overclocking is a popular way to get a little more performance from a system. It is often called pushing or speed margining. Sometimes you can force your CPU to run faster than intended, but it does carry some risks such as over-heating, so you should become familiar with all the pros and cons before you attempt it. You don't want all your crucial data going up in smoke!

Sending Email in OpenOffice

Everyone has at one time or another needed to send a file that's currently being edited to someone in an e-mail.

What did you do?

Did you save the file, start a new message, attach the file (which we all know involves a couple of steps too) and then save it?

If you could get OpenOffice.org to do most of that work for you would you want to know how?

Of course you'd want to know… who wouldn't?

Amanda's Coolsite

I remember being blown away when I brought you the visual cell size scale, but now I've discovered The Scale of the Universe 2!

When you arrive at the site, you'll notice the instructions are right on the main page. You'll use the slide bar to zoom in an out, and then you can click on objects to learn more about them. Click the black start button to begin your exploration of the universe.

The first thing I noticed was that there is nice background sound to the application, but if you are at work, you'll want to click the music notes in the top right corner to turn off the sound. Now while your navigating the universe, I noticed that I can also use my mouse wheel to zoom in and out. I found that was way easier than moving the slider bar.

The other thing I noticed – probably because I love sparkle – is that when you get zoomed way out into the universe and are looking at nebulas – they sparkle! I found I wanted to click them and learn more about them. And when you zoom in to the universe past what you can see with the naked eye, the rays are animated. I like little touches like that because they're unexpected and make the interface more fun to use.

I think you're ready to go explore the universe! Go check it out!

Wizcabulary

Welcome to Wizcabulary, a site that combines a word game with non-profit giving. The game is designed for students in the 5th – 9th grade to build their vocabulary, so it makes a great summer game to give your kids or grandkids to play if it's raining outside! But it also fun to play if you are a word lover like I am.

I played for about an hour just to do this review. It was research…really!

The game is easy to play! First choose whether you avatar is a girl or a boy, then all you have to do is select the correct answer to define the word you are given. For each correct answer the avatar receives a piece of clothing, when you've selected eight correct answers you earn a ribbon!

Did I mention that as you play you're also contributing to non-profit giving? Well, for every word guessed correctly the WilsonDailyPrep donates .01 to Graph It Forward Today (GIFT). GIFT provides graphing calculators and gently used books to disadvantaged-college-bound students.

If you want to save your score (or your children's score) click the Save Your Score image below the avatar. That will take you to a form to fill out. The nice thing about this form is that you do not have to provide an e-mail (this is to protect the kiddos) just create a username, password, birth month and year. If you decide to setup a parent e-mail you can offer your children awards for achieving goals, and be notified when they earn a trophy.

If you find you have any questions, be sure to check out the FAQ page. It explains in detail how things work and should cover any questions that arise.

This word game is fun, addicting, educational, and donates to a good cause! Who could ask for more? Check it out today!

UNLESS You Know The Material In This Brilliant, Cutting-Edge Book!

Security Advice So Potent It Brings Viruses, Hackers, And Scammers

TO THEIR KNEES!!

OH WOW! We're so excited!

Steve and Gary have an absolutely incredible new E-Book that's going to rock the entire Internet - WorldStart's Internet Security Survival Guide - and it's finally ready to go!

Everyone loves their computers - but very few realize how devastatingly DANGEROUS things can get when that PC is compromised and turned against you!

And it happens to people just like you EVERY DAY!!

millfall

The threats just keep piling up - hackers, viruses, malware, spyware, scammers, phishing attacks, compromised public WiFi, over the shoulder attacks, router attacks, password crackers, compromised software, outdated operating systems, firewall breaches, browser hijacking, malicious web sites, dangerous pop-ups, cross site scripting, e-mail hacking, virus hoaxes, deadly file attachments, compromised personal information, stolen data from old computers, hijacked HOSTS files, spoofed file extension tricks, autorun viruses, ransomware, infested freeware - well, you get the idea!

Do you know how to protect yourself from ALL of the threats listed above?why
If you don't, I can PROMISE this...
It's not a matter of IF you become a victim - it's truly a matter of WHEN!

They always say, "What you don't know can't hurt you." Well, here in the Internet age, the opposite is true:

What you don't know CAN and WILL hurt you - probably severely!

Millions of people who didn't think it could happen to them fall victim EVERY DAY - simply because they didn't KNOW there was a threat! That's CRAZY. In fact, it's not just a little crazy, it's "Trying-To-Jump-The-Grand-Canyon-With-A-Bicycle" INSANE!

Especially when it's SOOOO easy to avoid the problems in the first place IF you know what the threats are AND how to avoid them!

Bottom line - You need to know exactly what dangers lurk around the dark corners of the internet - or you WILL be the next victim! You absolutely, positively MUST know HOW you can get attacked and HOW to defend yourself!

And THAT'S why we created this absolutely fantastic new E-Book!

Our breakthrough 430 page e-book will teach you all the tips, tricks, and techniques you need to steer clear of the bad guys!

Everything we know about Internet and PC security is IN THIS BOOK!

PLUS - we've written this in a way EVERYONE can understand! Each and every chapter is written in fun, easy to read language that you'll discover is REALLY SIMPLE to follow! We even have loads of pictures and illustrations!

saved

Finally!
You don't need a degree in Computer Science to stay safe anymore - our incredible new book will take you there!

I know there's a few people out there crazy enough to think:

"There's nothing of value on my computer, I have nothing to hide, so I don't care if someone gets in or I get a virus."

Music to a hacker's EARS! The bad guys rely on IGNORANCE in order to attack your PC! They rely on people who think that there's nothing of value on their computer - and NOTHING could be further from the truth!

happyhack

Even a computer with nothing but a fresh Windows install is a juicy target!

If your computer is compromised - either by a hacker or malware (viruses, rogueware, spyware, etc) any of the following can happen:

arrow Your identity is stolen (easier than you think - we spill the beans)
arrow Your credit card information is stolen
arrow Your bank account is compromised
arrow Your friends e-mail addresses are stolen - then attacked
arrow Any documents are fair game and can be used for identity theft
arrow Files or entire drives can be deleted - all your music, photos, etc - GONE!
arrow Your computer can be turned into a server for adult sites
arrow Your computer can be used to commit fraud - and YOU take the blame
arrow Your computer can be used as an illegal attack "zombie"
arrow Your computer may be held ransom until you pay up - happens 35 MILLION times a month!
arrow You will be blasted with non-stop pop-ups
arrow Your computer will be inoperable to the point of needing an expensive overhaul

scared

And that's only the TIP of a very dangerous iceberg!

So, yeah, it IS a big deal if you get compromised. In addition, if your computer is used for illegal purposes by the hacker the feds could come knocking on YOUR door - not theirs.

Oh - and just think how expensive it would be to take your computer to a shop to get it working again - all because YOU didn't know what's in our life-saving e-book!

We want to show you how to recognize and avoid the pitfalls that MILLIONS of people fall victim to each and every day. You know - the people who never thought it would happen to them.

This includes a whoppin' 54 chapters that will launch you into the security stratosphere! By the time you finish reading this incredible book, you'll have your computer locked down so tight the folks over at Fort Knox will come to YOU looking for advice!

glad

We've divided the book into 9 sections and there's a VERY brief outline below. But...

PLEASE keep in mind you're only seeing a small FRACTION of the information that's jam-packed into this breakthrough book!!!
There's another 85% of the book we haven't even hinted at below! WOW!

When it comes to attacking your computer, there are no shortage of tools at the disposal of the bad guys! Do you REALLY know how to stay safe? This section will show you the threats - and how to avoid them! We show you how to set up your computer to guard against all types of malicious software - viruses, spyware, adware, rogueware, ransomware - we show you the software and techniques you need to block it ALL!

Oh, and just wait till you see the free anti-malware titles and amazing firewall we've discovered!

Everyone loves to use their laptops with public WiFi. Hey, what could be better than sitting down in your hotel room, at an airport, or coffee shop and logging on for some free Internet?

Well, hackers LOVE these places too - only it's your data they're after! If you don't know ALL the dangers of public WiFi, you're in BIG trouble.

In fact, I'd go so far as to say if you don't know what we have in our book you probably shouldn't even be using public WiFi - EVER! It's FAR more dangerous than most people realize!

Your accounts can get compromised, your passwords stolen, and your e-mail intercepted - and that's just for starters. Identity theft, attacks on your friends / contacts are ALL possible - AND probable!

Oh, yeah - and the hacker doesn't even need to break into your computer to pull this off! He just logs onto the wireless network and goes to work with software that can "spy" on you!

We'll show you how he does it - and how YOU can stay safe!

The online world is a dangerous place - from scams, to hijacking, to malicious pops-ups, to fraud - there's a lot of ways to trip and fall out there! You need to know how to tell the good from the bad, how to spot phishing scams, online scams, and con artists. You need to know how to properly set up your browser, how to stay safe on Facebook, how to respond to malicious pop-up windows, how to deal with cookies, and more!

A lack of knowledge in ANY of the areas above is a guarantee for trouble down the road. And that's a HUGE problem! All it takes is one scam, one vicious pop-up, or one drive-by infection to compromise your data, ruin your computer, and get your identity stolen - what you DON'T know WILL hurt you

Oh, this is HUGE - this chapter ALONE is worth the price of the entire book! We reveal all the pitfalls people make when setting and using passwords - and show you how to avoid 'em!

Knowing the difference between a strong password and a typical password is the difference between getting your accounts hacked or staying secure.

We also talk about how you handle passwords in general. If you don't know the critical 7 steps we outline in this book even the strongest of passwords are at risk! Getting your accounts hacked can RUIN your life in ways you've never even thought of!

What happens if a hacker breaks into your bank account? Or your credit card account? Or heck - even your Amazon account? Talk about a nightmare! Our passwords section gives you the key to minimizing your risk!


It takes less than 30 minutes to compromise an unsecured computer connected to the Internet. There are thousands of hackers out there scanning for weaknesses right now - you're likely getting scanned dozens of times a day - you could be getting scanned even as you read this!

Is your home network set up properly or are you about to be the next statistic? Make sure you know for sure with our book!

We're going to show you how to lock down your home network - your router, your wired network, your wireless network - everything. We'll show you how to set the right encryption on your wireless, how to make sure your firewall is engaged properly, and even how to name your network to avoid getting personally targeted for a WiFi attack.

E-mail is literally the door to your digital world. A compromise here - by either a hacker or malware program - can be devastating! If there's ONE place you need to be safe, it's when you deal with your e-mail!

Just think - what would happen if someone had access to your e-mail account? Chances are they could easily piece together enough information about you to steal your identity (just think of all the items in your inbox, sent items box, and outbox).
