All the Spyware Security you Need: For Free

More and more internet users are understanding how important it is for them to find security software that allows them to remain invisible to possible intruders. Threats such as spyware, Trojans, viruses, worms and other malware are difficult to avoid because they have become so widespread. To partially prevent these malicious codes from sneaking in you must first secure you computer with a firewall that will notify you of any unauthorized intruders.

Even by setting up your security so that you remain invisible to most intruders, users will be exposed to spyware and viruses by visiting web sites and downloading freeware and shareware. If you computer is invaded by spyware or viruses you must download both anti-virus and anti-spyware software. Technology experts recommend using more than one spyware tool because its threats are so prevalent no one scanning tool can catch all infections. Utilizing two or more anti-spyware tools will help better protect your computer from the consequences of spyware build up.

Each of the security tools necessary to keep your internet surfing safe can be downloaded for free. Numerous anti-virus, anti-spyware and firewall programs can be downloaded for free and most offer equivalent protection to those you purchase.

Because all the tools necessary for security are free, there is no reason users should not take advantage of the safety nets.

Once you have your security tools in place you can run a test through a trustworthy source to ensure that your computer is virtually invisible online and secure from intruders.

rehan_articles@yahoo.comMicrosoft Great Plains: Getting New Users Licenses Annual Service Plan FAQAndrew Karasev

Microsoft Business Solutions Great Plains, Solomon, Navision, Axapta, Microsoft CRM require existing customer to be on active service contract: enhancement program. Minimal maintenance plan gives you free new software version (however upgrade itself, if it is done by your MBS partner is not free). If you are outside of USA/Canada: Mexico, South America, UK, South Africa, France, Australia, New Zealand you may have different promotion campaigns and might be not required to be on the service contract. In this article we assume that you are US/Canadian client.

• Can I get new licenses without being on the service contract? The answer is no we tried to negotiate with MBS on behalf of midsize and large corporate clients, who are so-called orphans, or without support/service plan. Please, understand the rules of ERP application support. It is normal practice when large business ERP requires service plan. Microsoft Business Solutions in turn requires its MBS partners to pass multiple certification and quality assurance (QA) tests

• What is re-enrollment fee? Currently reenrollment fee is 35% of the software price list. From time to time you may catch re-enrollment promotion campaigns, the minimum known was 20% (September/October 2004). If you are on version eEnterprise 6.0 and skipped 4 annual payments (16%) and now in order to upgrade to Great Plains Professional 8.0 you pay 35% (which includes 16% enhancement plan for the next year), then your penalty is just 19% - Id say go ahead and reenroll.

• Great Plains Standard vs. Professional. Great Plains Standard (or former Great Plains Dynamics) has certain limitations: number of users is capped at 10 and number of employees (US Payroll) is capped at 500. Great Plains Standard is available on MSDE and MS SQL Server

• New Modules Addition. The same rule applies you have to be on enhancement program to get additional modules. So, if you need say Fixed Assets module and if you are without support you need to reenroll in order to get FA module reg key.

• Customization Upgrade. If you need Great Plains Dexterity, Modifier/VBA, Continuum, eConnect. SQL Stored procs customization upgrade, you need to find MBS customization partner. As your customization was done by somebody else in the past (who probably is out of business now), we or the partner you select can not guarantee the upgradeability of your custom piece well try our best.

• Reports Upgrade. Good news if you have Crystal Reports, working with Great Plains Dynamics/eEnterprise 6.0 then upgrade should be simple, because table structure didnt change only minor changes were introduced.

• Switching to Great Plains. If you are considering Great Plains to be your ERP, we know successful implementations, customizations in the following industries: aerospace & defense, textile, non-profit, services, recruitment & placement, oil & gas, pharmaceutical, hospital & healthcare, transportations, distributions, logistics & supply chain management, education, government, beverages, jewelry, gold & mining.

help@albaspectrum.comDrive Solutions Inc, Expands Data Recovery Service Woody Bowers

For over 11 years Drive Solutions, Inc. has been selling hard to find early model hard drives as well as new drives to large corporations, small business, and individuals alike.

During this time Drive Solutions has performed Data Recovery Services for many fortune 500 companies and Government agencies.

Drive Solutions Inc has expanded their Data Recovery Services to the public at a very economical price.

Drive Solutions, Inc. Specializes in recovery of Notebook and PC hard drives as well as other forms of storage media such as Digital camera memory cards, USB jump drives, CD, DVD, and more.

In previous years Data Recovery was far too expensive for an individual to afford. As time and technology have moved forward the cost of the data recovery service has decreased dramatically making it an affordable service for everyone.

Years ago you could expect to pay upwards of $3000.00 for the recovery of your vital data. Today the successful recovery of your data can run under $400.00 making this service very affordable for end users.

I spoke with the Director of Business Development at Drive Solutions, Bruce Masterson, who said These days we see a lot of our business coming from home computer users that have stored all of their pictures of family, vacations, and all kinds of personal files on their hard drive and nowhere else.

We all hear about how important backing up your files is however, not many people think about their hard drive crashing especially at home.

Nowadays more and more people store their music files, family photos, contacts, etc... on their home computers. These files usually arent worth $3000.00 to the user however, since prices have dropped for data recovery services more and more end users are utilizing the service. Digital cameras and mobile storage devices such as the Apple IPOD have created a real demand for an affordable data recovery service.

Those portable devices take a beating. People dont realize that if their portable device has a hard drive in it- the hard drive has moving parts and these parts can become damaged from shock. Masterson stated.

The Folks I spoke with at Drive Solutions, Inc. told me that all hard drives will fail eventually and to always keep my data backed up and to keep my backup files in a different location.

After my tour of their 10,000sq ft facility in Chatsworth, Ca, I realized just how many drives they work on every day. Thats a lot of hard drives failing around the globe.

When they say to back up your files before trouble strikes- Listen and do it before you have to use a data recovery service. Well be here when you need us but, take action now and avoid our service all together. Thats the last bit of advice I got from Bruce before I left their lab.
