Spybot - Search & Destroy - Adware & spyware are two of the biggest problems facing PC users today. This tool quickly and effectively eliminates most of these rogue programs. Updates are regularly offered through the convenient built-in update utility. This program is free but donations are encouraged and a built-in link is provided for that, too. Visit Spybot's homepage. |
Ad-aware - With the ability to scan your RAM, Registry, hard drives, and external storage devices for known data-mining, advertising, and tracking components, Ad-Aware 2008 can clean your system easily, allowing you to maintain a higher degree of privacy while you surf the Web. |
MalwareBytes Antimalware - Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware is considered to be the next step in the detection and removal of malware. Their product has compiled a number of new technologies that are designed to quickly detect, destroy, and prevent malware. Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware can detect and remove malware that even the most well known anti-virus and anti-malware applications fail to detect. |
American Family Filter - The only Internet content filtering program that we have been unable to circumvent. Content is filtered at the server instead of on your PC and there is no password override. While some users find this program too restrictive (limits access to many gaming & chat websites), sometimes it is better to be safe than sorry. |
Bootdisk.com - A great site that offers free downloads of several legacy & custom boot disks. |
Speakeasy.net - This is Speakeasy's Atlanta bandwidth testing server. Speakeasy is a national DSL provider and this server is one of the most reliable resources for determining the true performance of DSL & Cable modems. This server should only be used by our customers in and around Georgia; other servers are available for other areas of the country. |
Microsoft's Knowledge Base - This is Microsoft's database of thousands of technical support articles. Some articles are very technical in nature and some are not, but this is a good place to start looking for answers to many computer problems. It helps to have an exact error message (i.e. "Explorer has caused an invalid page fault in module Kernel32.dll") when searching the Knowledge Base. |
IncrediConvert - This is a utility to convert your Incredimail emails into ".eml" files. Incredimail does not have an export feature and Outlook Express will not import Incredimail files, so this is the only way to convert back to Outlook Express without losing your messages. Please note that it usually requires some advanced knowledge of directory structures and file attributes to find the Incredimail storage folder. Once the messages are exported, importing them back into Outlook Express is as simple as dragging and dropping the ".eml" files into the appropriate folder inside Outlook Express. |
