Computers & Internet - 30 May 2007

I have webtroot spy sweeper already installed and free Zone alarm software installed too, which works good, I even have cccleaner to clean up and save more mb. But my pc freezes when I am on my hotmail emailing people, or other sites, it then freezes then I have to click exit browser, then it closes all the other browsers that are already open. What is wrong with it? I have done a disk cleanup and defrag, I do not go into porn sites or any harmful site with pop ups, I have pop blocker too. Thank you so much......

It's annoying and aggravating when they're asking for free software or how do they run something off of their hard drive instead of having the disk inserted in, and when you give them a good optimum solution they give you a thumbs down?

Example: Running a game that requires a cd inserted in. All you need to do is mount the .iso and poof, there you go! It's a lot safer then going to all those websites that can give you cracks but at the same time, can send virus', spyware, adware and all that jazz onto your computer.

Blah.

Sure, cracks may be a lot smaller in size but it really isn't a lot safer than .iso's if you don't know where to look and how to look for it. But, whatever.

If this is correct, can anyone explain in easy terms what an HTML editor is? and why that area is there at all if the defaults just leave it blank? Thanks!

I know it sounds silly, and a very beginner question, but i had someone ask me recently if her and her partner can use the same PC at the same time. I started to think about this, the keyboard, monitor and mouse can be solved with KVM switches, but how can i get two mouse cursors on the screen (even if they were using seperate virtual machine boxes)

Can you get two mouse cursors on a screen to work in tandom? A plugin? An application?

Is there anyway to do this on a PC?

I've just received an email verification notice for an email I didn't send.

It was nina.schelper@hotmail.co.uk I don't know anyone by this name or email address. After typing it into the internet it comes back with "nina dies" which is a bit strange as my name is Nina .
