Dig Out That Worm
|
Internet worms.
Is your PC infected?
If your computer has become infected with a worm, don't panic, it is not the end of the world.
There area number of things that you can do.
Microsoft has a security web page.
www.microsoft.com/security/default.mspx
It offers up to the minute information on the latest security threats and worms. It also provides you with all of the tools to dig out the worms and fix any damage that they may have caused.
I expect that most of you are saying that you already have protection. May I ask a question?
"Is it up-to-date?"
We all know that virus protection is essential. The trouble is that a lot of us have not updated our virus protection software since we purchased our computer possibly three or four years ago.
The chances are that it is completely useless against the latest threats.
I am using AGV anti virus. I have found it to be totally reliable. There are other programs that I expect are just as good. Zone alarm also has a very good reputation, so does F-secure. Go to Google and type in "anti virus programs" and you will get more results than you could shake a stick at.
You only need one of these programs on your computer at one time. More than one and they tend to get confused and anything could happen.
Whatever program you use, be sure to keep it up-to-date. There are new viruses coming out almost on a daily basis. Try to get an update at least once a week. It's always better to be safe than sorry.
A lot of programs will email you when a new virus appears and offer the appropriate update as part of their service.
Whatever you do, don't leave it until tomorrow. Tomorrow may be too late.
Do it now and sleep easy. Viruses have been known to cause nightmares.
All the best. Bob?

Choose Your Java Wisely
Java has come along a long way. Many would agree with this. I did not until the Java 1.5 "Tiger" hit me. The tiger had several new features, and more importantly, it has new syntax. Six major upgrades that the tiger presents are certainly the generics, enhanced for loop, autoboxing (unboxing), improvement on Typesafe enum, Static import and the metadata. Of course there are many more, which can be found at java's official site. Out of these six, at least four would be used in my daily "programming" life. From java 1.1 to 1.4, it seemed more like new frills were simply added. It felt like earning more brownie points when you downloaded the newer version. But should I start using 1.5 immediately, maybe not.
The developers and programmers (if you distinguish between them) are ...(related: Software)

Programming Environments And The Software Production Process
Introduction:The creating of a computer program involves a number of stages which can be made easier with several separate software utilities. There are now integrated set of support programs which combine all the necessary utilities to provide a complete program development environment. These are known as programming languages, which include:BASIC: Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code originally designed for Dartmouth's experimental timesharing system in the early 1960s, which has since become the leading cause of brain damage in proto-hackers & programmer becouse it encourages bad habits that will make it harder to use more powerful languages well.PASCAL: A language designed in 1967 and released in 1968 as an instructional tool for elementary programming. This language was design...(related: Software)

Screenplay And Script Writing Software
When it comes to screenplay software each screenwriter needs to determine what they need from the program they purchase and pick one that fits their specific needs. Screenwriting software doesn't write the screenplay for you. Why do I say this? I don't want you to be under the impression one software application is "better" or the "best" script writing software. No script writing software should be chosen based on it helping you complete your screenplay "better" or "faster" than another.What makes a screenplay "better" is the skill and execution of the writer. What determines how fast a screenplay is completed is how fast the writer is with their skill and execution. Thinking particular screenplay software helps you write a bette...(related: Software)
Constructionalist Parsing - Deciphering Natural Language
The research in the field of Natural Language Processing usually assumes the existence of a syntactic "Generative Engine" that combines words and word-like elements into syntactic structures, and then sometimes displaces them by "syntactic movement". A Linguistic Parser must "undo" all the effects of syntactic movement, which results in a structure where the relations between the words are represented more directly.In recent years, a new theoretical framework was introduced, i...(related: Software)
