Overall, the spam protection built into Gmail is very good. Very seldom do I get a message in my Inbox which I mark as spam. On the flip side, however, I have anywhere from 350-400 are in my spam folder at any give time...

It should be noted up front that this method only covers software that is registered in Add/Remove in Windows. Other software (like PuTTY or JkDefrag which are standalone executables) won’t show up in a list like this. But if it’s in Add/Remove, it will. Why would you want to do this? Th...

Did you know you can drag and drop onto applications you currently have hidden (behind other windows) or minimized? Suppose you want to drag some files to an Outlook message you have open to add them as attachments. Select the files in Windows Explorer...

For the past six months or so I’ve been receiving a lot of flyers in postal mail touting, "If you sign up for internet service with us, you get a new netbook computer!" For many U.S. residents they’ve been seeing the same, and maybe this is even happening in other countries. Ev...
