Every time I close a Tab I have to reload the page. Sure, John – if you're using Internet Explorer, then yes, there is a way! Click on the gear in the upper right-hand corner and select Internet Options. Make sure you're on the General tab, and next to the Tabs field, click Settings. Now, just un-check Enable tabbed browsing and click OK at the bottom. You're all set – no more tabbed browsing in IE. You can always re-follow these steps and put a check back in if you want to restore this function. ~Andrew Click here to rate this tip | Printer friendly version
Time To Retire Your Old Camera! Are you READY for a sweet new camera? Man, we found something you just gotta see! It's a 14MP Fujifilm FinePix camera that's gonna BLOW YOU AWAY! You've never seen a camera THIS advanced!  First off, this baby packs a whopping' 14MP of pure digital BLISS! That gives you the freedom to make beautiful prints up to 20" with ZERO PROBLEMS! From snapshot to wall hanger - your prints are gonna look gorgeous! Plus, 14MP also gives you more flexibility to crop your images too! With a lesser camera, once you start cropping, you start losing the ability to even print a good 8x10! OUCH! With this 14MP bad boy, you can crop hard and still make nice size prints! AWESOME!  Oh, you are gonna LOVE this! To me the zoom on this camera is the knock-down-drag-out BEST feature - bar NONE! Most cameras give you a wimpy 3x zoom. Some, ahem, "better" cameras maybe go 4x or 5x. This cranks it up to the next level then shoots it into ORBIT with an incredible 10X zoom! You can go from wide angle to super-telephoto in SECONDS! A 10X zoom lets you take a group shot at the birthday party then quickly zoom in for that goofy look on little Joey's face! You gotta see it to believe it! Great for EVERY type of photo!  Don't be fooled - some cameras brag about a "digital zoom" but that's just electronic smoke and mirrors - you're interested in the OPTICAL zoom and this has one of the best you'll ever see! This ALONE is worth WAY more than the price of the camera! You just can't beat the flexibility this gives you!  As if having a killer resolution and a knock-out zoom lens wasn't enough, this also helps to kick blurry photos to the curb! It's uses Dual Image Stabilization technology to automatically make shaky, blurry photos a thing of the past! This amazing tech automatically uses a combination of ISO and optical stabilization to help insure you get the SHARPEST photos possible in any given situation! LOOK:  Why risk blurry photos ever again? Don't let that once-in-a-lifetime shot be a total disappointment because you didn't have this amazing technology! "WAIT - What about blurry photos caused by focusing in the wrong spot?" Hey - GLAD YOU ASKED! This baby comes FULLY LOADED with cutting-edge FACE DETECTION too! How's it work? The camera is smart enough to know when you're pointing it at a person and LOCKS ON to their face as the focus point!  No more "The-People-Were-Blurry-But-The-Background-Was-Sharp" mistakes! This baby actually KNOWS where to focus - and it's ALL AUTOMATIC! Oh, and you can even "train" the camera to recognize faces! So, if it sees someone it "knows" in a group of people, it will place focus emphasis on them! Talk about SMART!! PLUS - It even takes care of red-eye for ya - SWEET!!  Think the above is impressive? Oh, you ain't seen nothin' yet! Blink Warning: Alerts you if the camera "sees" your subject blink!  Smile Detection: Know someone that never seems to smile in font of the camera? Or if they do smile, it happens too fast? This setting "watches" the subject and when it "sees" them smile, it takes the photo! WOW!  It Just Does Soooooo MUCH:  14MP Beautiful High Resolution CaptureAmazing 10X Optical ZoomDual Optical Image Stabilization For SHARP PhotosFace Detection = No Misfocus!Super Slim - Fits GREAT anywhere!ISO 100-3200 for AMAZING flexibility in ANY light!Silent ModeBuilt-In Flash With Red-Eye Reduction / RemovalAnd It Can Even Record HD Movies! OK, we're putting the SMACKDOWN on the competition! First, their prices:  Now - you can pay those prices OR… You can get it from us for just $129.97 and US shipping is FREE! Yup, told ya we had a GREAT DEAL! Keep in mind this is a VERY limited quantity situation, so don't wait - grab yours today! PS - This is EASILY the BEST camera we've ever offered - PLEASE don't wait too long and miss out! You're REALLY gonna love this one!
Kirk from Utah writes: When you delete something, where does it go? How do you delete something completely off your computer? Great question, Kirk. In fact, a lot of users are really paranoid about whether sensitive data can be recovered from their system's hard drive, even if you have deleted it months ago. By default, Windows keeps all your deleted files and folders in "Recycle Bin" – a special system folder which is basically acts as a trash bin for your system. The Recycle Bin acts as a storehouse for files and folders which you have marked as "unnecessary" or "useless". However, please note that deleting a file or folder does not necessarily delete it permanently from your computer's hard drive. The specific file or folder in question goes to the "Recycle Bin" folder and it can be restored, as shown in the following example: To permanently delete a file from your computer's hard drive, you must open the Recycle Bin folder, select the file in question and do a force delete. There is no easy undo after this, so you should double check before proceeding. So here's an easy trick. When you want to "permanently" delete something from your computer's hard drive, hold the "Shift" key on your keyboard and hit the "Delete button". The selected file or folder will be deleted permanently as Windows will not put it in the "Recycle Bin" folder, like it does for other files when you hit only "Delete". However, depending upon the state of the operating system, there can be situations when it becomes very much possible to recover a file or folder – even if you have permanently deleted it from the Windows "Recycle Bin". For example, if the system you're using has a file recovery application installed, there is a high chance that the application might bring back a deleted file or folder… even after weeks. See, when you delete a file or folder from Windows, only the link to the data is destroyed. There is still a chance that the actual data is lying somewhere on the disk, completely inaccessible to you. This is when file recovery programs, such as Recuva come into the scene. These file recovery programs can sometimes restore the old links, which might bring back an old file or folder that was deleted months ago. Hence, for a completely secure deletion, you have to ensure that both the data and the links to the data is destroyed and overwritten. A simple way to do this is to install Eraser on your system. Eraser is one of the best known data removal tool for Windows. It securely deletes every trace of information about a given file or folder, and completely removes sensitive data from your hard drive by overwriting it several times with carefully selected patterns. Once you have deleted a file or folder using Eraser, no file recovery program can restore it. Once you have installed Eraser, right click a file or folder and choose "Eraser > Erase" A full format of the system also deletes all files and folders and recreates the file system from scratch. However, a full format is a really long route, and makes sense only when you are rejecting or selling an external hard drive and want to ensure every piece of data is killed.

Amazon recently announced a few new Kindle devices, along with a refresh of an existing Kindle model. Amazon's Kindle has been well reviewed thanks to its vast selection of books available in Kindle format, free owners library for Amazon Prime members and aggressive pricing. So what's new? The big news is the Kindle Fire HD 8.9″ and Kindle Fire HD 7″ tablets. The Kindle Fire line of tablets run a proprietary, heavily skinned version of Android with Amazon's music, video, magazine and books built in. This model also features Amazon's App Store, which like Apple's, has an approval process to gain admission to, resulting in generally higher quality and less dangerous applications. The Fire line also features a built in web browser for visiting your favorite internet sites. (Want these tips in their entirety? Sign up for Premium!)
Clear Word Formatting We've all had this moment… the one where we realize that so much mismatched and random formatting has been done to our document that it's time to just start over. Well, not start completely over – I certainly don't mean that we would want to delete all the document content – just the formatting. Learn the trick here! (Want these tips in their entirety? Sign up for Premium!) Polly from PA writes: How does my computer send out e-mails to several names on my address list, saying it's from me, when I am not on the computer or not even at home? It's always just a link to something – don't know what it is, because I've never clicked on the link. Is this a virus? What can I do to stop it from happening again? Uh oh, Polly! It sounds to me like you have a Virus on your computer. Many viruses use this kind of technique because people are far more likely to open up e-mail from people they know. The links that are being sent out sometimes are as innocent as advertisements for products, but often are intended to infect other computers with the same virus.

I'll freely admit what lured me to this site was the fantastic photographs of the redwoods. I was happy to get to the site and find that there was so much more going on than just amazing photos. There are five sections to really explore. They are: Read the Story – here you will find twelve pages of well written information that tells you the story of these trees. See Photos – this is what brought me to the site, and I think once you start delving into the photos here you'll see why. Follow the Transect – I lost myself in this section. I was quite surprised at how compelling I found the timeline of the trees, and how interesting it was to see how large the range of trees was. This is a truly expansive range of trees. On the timeline you can click the green circles to see the photo that matches that spot on the journey of Mike Fey and Lindsey Holm as they walked the range. Make sure you tab over into the Redwood Time Line section – it's fascinating! Go Behind the Photo – this section takes you to video where you will learn how the team made a composite image of an entire tree! This was really cool to see. Solve a Mega-Puzzle – if you don't care about photos or the history of these amazing trees but you are a jigsaw fan this is the section for you. This is a puzzle that would make any jigsaw fan proud. And they aren't kidding when they say it is a mega puzzle. I was overwhelmed at first by where to start-I'm a huge jigsaw fan- but as I plugged away at it, the puzzle started to come together and was very rewarding in a sense of accomplishment when I finished it. You may want to register so you can save your progress and not have to work it all in one sitting, it is really huge.
