I am trying to decide between getting DSL or getting wireless internet. I like the idea of wireless internet and being able to use it anywhere in my house and shop. My 1st question is if I have a wireless computer set up in my house, but I also want to use it in my shop which is a totally separate outbuilding would I have to not secure my homebase connection in order to access it from a router in my shop. I have heard about people piggybacking on unsecured networks so I am wondering how safe it would be to not secure it. By the way, What does everyone think about this Wifi piggybacking. Do you think that it is legal or illegal? which leads to my 2nd question. My son says that he does not think that wifi piggybacking is illegal. He said that some people don't secure thier networks and don't care if anyone uses it. I'm not so sure that I believe that. I would like to see a show of hands of people who do not care if others use thier network by accessing by wifi piggybacking

What is the truth about routers and personal firewalls. All books say to disengage personal firewalls if there is a router? Help! I am confused.

I have deleted many files on my PC until today, but I know that they are not totally erased and still recoverable, even after formatting.

I need a free program that will find these formerly deleted files and ERASE THEM PERMANENTLY without any trace.

Do you know of any?

P.S. I don't need a file shredder etc. that can erase an undeleted file permanently. I need a program that finds the files that have been deleted before, and destroys all traces.

I used to like going on the internet all the time it just seems like there is nothing left to do on it. I am looking for websites that would be fun for a 18-20 year old woman (not myspace, facebook, bebo, or any of those other websites like those), if you know of any that would be great.

So I've always wondered how people take their notebook with them everywhere and internet works. Like a restraunt etc.

How do they get the internet? do they pay for a month like DSL?

I use wireless router at home and use one notebook with a pc, so if i take the notebook outside, would that work?

please help.

I just have a few questions. I am a sophomore in High school and really want a Macbook pro. But I mainly will need it for College, but I don't know if it will be out of date by then? I cannot wait any longer and was planning on getting one once the new MBP models come out if they do. I was just wondering does Apple release a new OS every year? Do they release new models every year? Like I said I cannot stand it any longer and planning on getting one next year. When i am a Junior. But I will be using it for a lot of things between now and college, but by the time I go to college will it be out of date? it will be 2.4GHz 160GH HDD 5400RPM 15". But no clue what models they will have next year.

Im sure many folks here have heard of the fabled Normal.dot template file becoming corrupt and creating start-up trouble for Microsoft Word of all versions. After messing around with my girlfriends laptop trying to figure out why it took 10 minutes for Word 2007 to start-up I came across this problem.. When I deleted the Normal.dotm file from her Template folder, Word started up in less than a second, VERY FAST.. I closed Word and started it back up, and yet again, slow 10 minute start-up... I went back to her template folder and noticed the Normal.dotm file was there again... So Word creates this file everytime, which is normal for it to "repair" itself.. however, it continually creates this "corrupt" version of it so we have to delete that file each time we open MS Word.. Is there a way to delete it once and for all? Or perhaps make a working version of it? Any advice would be great. Thanks in advance.
