CMOS Virus & BIOS settingsWritten by J Keneally
If your motherboard keeps losing its' clock settings and other BIOS options first thing to do is change your CMOS battery, of course. However if this doesn't cure it, one of two things is wrong:1. You have a CMOS virus 2. Ths Moboard is faulty. Before throwing your motherboard away, make sure you are not infected by a virus such as CMOS or CMOSDeath. A good antivirus program should detect this.
| | Incremental Outlook Backup, File Synchronization and Offline Network in one solutionWritten by Vikas Kumar
Mobiliti, Inc has announced release of Network/Unplugged 5.0. Users have been using Network/Unplugged for backing up user files including open outlook pst files incrementally, synchronizing user data transparently over LAN, VPN, wireless or internet and accessing network files in offline state. The new version 5.0 improves administration and management of software, makes bandwidth usage more efficient and utilizes data storage better. Network/Unplugged aims to provide a wide range of solutions to its users for file management. Outlook backup is a major issue in market today as for many, mailbox data file is single most important file. However, with its size hovering around a gigabyte, backup is not an easy task. Network/Unplugged provides a quick method to backup mailbox incrementally even when it is open. Additionally, users can use Network/Unplugged to backup and synchronize other files too. It has a set of file differencing methods and an engine sitting on top to select best differencing technique for a given file at a given time. Moreover, it is possible to maintain a different set of rules when synchronizing in a LAN environment and when synchronizing over a slower link. Besides, Network/Unplugged’s virtual network enables users to view their network offline using a caching technology. Users get same look and feel of network when disconnected along with performance of synchronization attributed to Mobiliti’s intelligent Delta Selection Process (iDESP). It is possible to use virtual network feature even when file servers are available. This feature coupled with background synchronization accelerates file access over a slower connection. Version 5.0 of Network/Unplugged builds upon this existing feature set to consolidate usage further. The administration and management of product in version 5.0 is expected to be easier as central deployment kit of product has been improved to use multiple profile files. Secondly, log repository and reporting tool feature allows administrators to collocate Network/Unplugged client log files in one centralized network location. This feature is expected to complement existing synchronization alert feature where administrators are automatically notified when there is an error or a special synchronization condition is raised.
