The first computer that i have ever owned? , It was a p1 that with 200 megahertz processor. I upgraded to a new one as fast as I could.

There is a bad thing and good thing about both of them. Norton, when you use the automatic file scanning, it slows your computer down. I don't know if this is true or not, but i'v heard that Mcaffee came with a virus. I'v used it once before, and it did not slow my computer any.The file scanning procedure for Norton seems to work better than the Mcaffee. It scans the file in more depth, which would catch the more *hard to catch* viruses

My opinion..., stick with windows. I'v only actually used Mac once or twice, but i hate the user interface on it. The Windows product lineup has a lot more eye candy for the user and all of this doesn't really slow the compter down. So windows is the choice for me.

If your computer keeps restarting when you are defragging your computer, just disable the screensaver and any other applicaitions that you might have running. A good idea might be to use Ctrl+Alt+Del to check for other running processes running on your computer.

I used to do Intern for my high.., we did the same thing that was stated above..., we had some old p133 computers that we just through out. Although, they did have windows 95 on it.., they was still slow to use. I can only imagine how much slower they would have been if they had XP on them because of the framework of the processor and the operating system. Here soon, I will be hired at the High School, and i can give you more information about schools and computer usage.

This can be a hard decision to make. Firefox is good for customizing and for speed if you open the about:config in the url. Although, Internet Explorer, will display somethings that Firefox will not display. For an example, if you have a code the flips the page horizontally, then Firefox will not allow you to scroll through the page left and right. If you open the same website in Internet Explorer, it works perfecty. If I had to make the decision, I would stay with Internet Explorer.

Yes.., it is very sercure. The network i am running now is ADSL and i have a password set for hexideciaml and static IP. I haven't had any problem out of it every since I did that. I am using a D-Link Router, which I would highly recommend to anyone.

I believe the best anitspyware that you can use it the one that microsoft provides from their website. it is called Microsoft Antispyware Beta..., it's the best one that I have used.
