Should I use standby, hibernate?

I am a law student and I need to make sure my computer is always at peak performance. I have heard that turning it off and on can wear on the machine from some. What do you guys recommend?

My eldest lad wants his own pc in his room so he can msn in private! I was wondering if my other kids were on msn downstairs would he be able to msn at the same time with our internet connection or would we need another subscription a bit like sky?

i found there is a vicious exe file in my computer, it's name is "explorer.exe". in the process windows, there are two processes, one is "EXPLORER.EXE", it is the windows process for desktop, another is the "explorer.exe", when the process is runnning, my IE will usually open a website automatically.

I want to delete the file,but because the name is the same, when I search in XP, the results is all the normal explorer.exe which is in the folder Windows(in the result ,it is lower cased). i can't find the vicious "explorer.exe", so i don't know where it hide.

I can delete the vicious process in task manager, but nexttime my system reboot, it will run again.

What I didn't mention is my company's edition of Symantec AV tool is locked down (all options greyed out) and won't allow me to add any such tools. Looking for a tool that will fly under the radar of any spyware or other tools that look for activities of spyware or keystroke logging. Do you or anyone know if BFK will meet this criteria?

thanks much!!

is the data really "gone" when we delete files (from recycle bin too) or format hard disk?? how is data recovery possible?? if data is still present in the disc? how can we "overwrite" it with other data after formatting the drive? in this sense why can't a drive hold more data than it's actual capacity?

I am running XP, and it really gets on my nerves to open a new window in explorer and have it half sized, but, if you can change a setting to make them open maximized, I can't figure out how or where.

I have a VAIO that has a outdated sound card and I want put in a 5.1 capable card. Otherwise, I have 3 speakers that make no sound. What I really need to know is can I just plug the new one, reassemble and it will work? Or do I need to take the old one out first?
