For the past few months I have been getting notifications about people accepting my friend request. This wouldn’t be something that I would call alarming however these people that have accepted my friend requests are people I have never even heard of before. Not only that but most of them only have a few friends. Facebook has been under the gun the past...

I just got another Xbox 360 on Friday and the first thing I did (after playing the Halo Reach Beta) was look for ways to boost my Xbox Live Game Score. Well here is a list of 25 games that should let you get at the very least 700 points, however in most cases you’ll get the full 1,000 in under 5 hours.

In response to Facebook completely flipping all of us and giving us less and less privacy, I decided to start up my own social network. I just got it up and running yesterday so by all means this is far from the finished product.

I spend a lot of time cracking passwords! No, not for stealing software or information, for doing computer repair! One of the most common home or small business computer service repair calls I get is that Bob, fill in the blank here – lost his password / forgot his password / left the company and never told anyone his password, and we can’t use the computer...

A computer file shredder was created for the same purpose as the paper file shredder. The intent is to complete obliterate not only the file, but in the most secure file shredder software, any reference to the file that was shredded is also shredded in the history and in the directory. Many people do not realize that a computer file that is deleted...

Email security is often overlooked by most of us (I know I am one of them) but with the recent commotion in the news about a college student breaking into Sarah Palin’s email address I figured it was time to do my service as an American citizen and help her (as well as anyone else) out. First we must think how on earth could this college student break into...
