Everytime I go onto certain sites, I'll get on then it just closes my internet explorer and goes to my desktop. Sometime I get these annoying boxes that say internet explorer must close because it has encountered a problem. Now it comes on about half as much more. What can I do?

If someone doesn't put a password on their wireless internet and you use it without permission, why is that so bad?
Isn't it their fault? Shouldn't they be to blame, because they didn't put a password on it?
If someone is incapable of protecting their computer, they shouldn't really have one, in my opinion.

What do you think?

Police have arrested and cautioned two more people for "piggybacking" off unsecured wireless connections.
Is your wireless connection secure?
Some peolpe believe "piggybacking" is harmless,
What's your opinion?

I have run several virus checkers and adware removers on my system. I have also "cleaned disk" and defragmented by hard drive. I am currently running a 200hz machine with 512k of memory. However, as of lately, I'm hitting 100% cpu usage. In using the resource manager, it shows I still have ram available for use. I also have plenty of HD space available.

Would simply increasing the size of my ram (2 slots at 256k) to 512k x 2 fix my problem? Again, it's the CPU usage which is 100% maxed out, the manager still says I have ram available.

I'm currently investigating any issues with startup programs in my msconfig file. This problem has just arisen as of late.

I'm sure I have a virus, everytime I run any antivirus software it locks and then locks up the computer. It also happens when I run spyware removers. Any Ideas?

How did he do it ? I have changed my password today. We now live in separate houses so we no longer share a computer and he would not be able to use keystroke recording software to steal my password. But could he have done it another way ? Do I need to abandon my hotmail account and set up a new one ? I feel really upset about it, the low down snooper, and it has made me paranoid about my phone and my mobile too.....
