802.11b or b/g Wireless Card – This is an Intel brand wireless network card for connecting to “hotspots” otherwise known as WiFi hubs. The Intel wireless network cards are not fastest, so if you use yours a lot you may want to take a look at a faster one.

If you do not currently own a Centrino equipped machine you may be wondering whether or not it is worth price. I would say yes, provided that you will actually use benefits provided by Centrino. Do you:

- Use your laptop battery a lot? - Connect to internet through WiFi a lot? - Need a super fast processor?

If you answered yes to these, then getting a Centrino equipped notebook may be your best move.

One more thing worth noting; a second version of Centrino has just been released, called ‘Sonoma’. What this means is that Intel takes this technology very seriously and is most likely planning even more features in future. This technology is definitely here to stay.

Whether or not you need a Centrino equipped notebook is up to you. Think hard about what you generally use your laptop for and make a sound decision based on what you come up with.

Contrary to most viruses Spywares actually make an effort not to be observed. Since they won’t cause obvious harm such as deleting important files or shutting down your computer, they can thrive in your PC for years without you noticing, sending out massive amounts of information about all your online habits.

At a first glance, you might find this annoying but essentially harmless. Why not let companies send me promotional material about things I am actually interested in? Spyware is however far from harmless, since infiltration by Spyware not only let companies know about your latest online search, but also much more private matters such as credit card details, online purchases of medicine and your private e-mail correspondence with family, friends and business partners. There are even examples of how this massive gathering of personal information has led to an overall loss of privacy and stolen identities. In computerized world of today it is not hard to imagine amount of damage and personal suffering fraudulent use of a persons’ identity can cause.

It is obvious to anyone that we must start combating Spyware programs, but best way of doing this is not to panic and pull plug on your PC, never go online again and keep five feet away from all Freeware. There is a much better solution: http://www.supportcave.com
