This is my site for links to Genuine Free Stuff as well as some useful advice. I use most of these programs regularly. It's good gear. It's all worth having.

** April 2014. Major revamp and update for relevance happening, especially now that support for Windows XP has ended, and now that we all are addicted to our Android phones. A lot of old stuff is going.

I have been building and using computers since about the Ice Age, from DOS 3 through to Windows 7.
I have been mucking about with mobile phones for quite some time, using Symbian S60 and then Android.

Press F8 at boot to start in safe mode - Windows XP and 7
To see the details of you computer, download, install and run 'Speccy' - shows Operating System, Firewall, Anti-virus and hardware.
If you think you have a virus, start here 'Free Online Virus Scan'. Try any or all, and be patient.

List of all Search Engines. Google, Yahoo, Bing and many more.

Here's an interesting list for you to look at. All the Search Engines.
There's more than just one you know.
Yahoo has been around for a while.
We all know Google Search by now.
Bing is capturing the market with its pretty pictures and relevance searches.

There's many more than that. Have a read and try a few.
