Get Rid of Toolbars

A trip home to visit family prompted me to write an article on how to get rid of toolbars. I wanted to check my e-mail, so I turned on my mother’s computer and opened her un-updated IE browser. She didn’t just have one toolbar; the toolbars were so numerous her browser looked like the nearly-closed [...]

Get Rid of Cookies

Privacy is more important to some people than others. This is why some people have more of a desire to get rid of cookies than others. It makes good sense. Especially if you’re on a public computer or share your computer with other people. Getting rid of cookies is important for other reasons too. While [...]

Get Rid of Malware

Recently, I was talking with a friend of mine who is also the arch tech-lord for a school teeming with computers. Needless to say, his plate is a full one. If he ever rose to a position of legislative power, we would all need to secure licences in order to sit down at a machine. [...]

How to Get Rid of Trojans

My introduction to trojan horses came last year as I tried to download a patch to one of my computer games. Instead of using the game’s website – which was obnoxiously slow – I haphazardly downloaded what appeared to be the patch from Limewire. I was impatient to play, and I paid for it. Instantly [...]

Get Rid of Adware

Yes, how to get rid of adware, and yes it’s just like spyware and popups and every other ware you can think of. The thing is, though there isn’t much of a difference between adware and spyware, excepting the obvious difference that one spies quietly and the other displays ads, people tend to perceive between [...]

Get Rid of Virus

Getting rid of viruses (computer viruses) is a tricky topic because there are so many different kinds of viruses out there that a computer could contract. I have left out the lengthy descriptions of each kind of virus, because I believe most people aren’t looking for them, they’re looking for a way to get rid [...]

Get Rid of Spyware

This most recent article brings us back to the topic of Computer Problems, and one of the biggest problems aside from popups, has always been spyware. Granted, spyware is no longer as huge of a threat as it used to be, but it certainly ranks up there when it comes to annoyances. Spyware can affect [...]

Get Rid of Popups

Getting rid of popups isn’t as big of a deal as it used to be. Many of the websites (particularly of the adult nature) don’t really employ popups as a means of advertisement anymore because of the recent advents in web browsing technology. It’s far more common to see popups due to background spyware and [...]

Net Neutrality

I don’t usually do this sort of thing on this website because this isn’t a political platform, this site is about solid information and research. But, because telecom companies like Comcast, Verizon, and AT&T want to privatize the internet, regulate what you see, what you read, and where you go–I feel obligated to tell you [...]

Get Rid of Spam

After reading enough spam and junk emails about your lack of “girth” or “length” as a man, or enough emails about how big your butt looks, you may be starting to wonder how to get rid of junkmail, otherwise known as spam on the intertron. Indeed, even I am sick of the emails about my [...]
