Your computer is your most important piece of equipment for getting work done and for communication and if you suffer from slow computer performance it will not only drive you nuts, it will stop you getting any work done.
A slow computer tends to result in poor quality work and more frustrations for the owner. Some reasons a computer may break down include insufficient disk space, malicious software or viruses and more frequently, errors in your computer registry system.
When your computer is brand new, your system works speedily and you can finish working in no time. However, as time goes by more and more corrupt and error filled files get into your registry slowing it down.
How can you fix these problems?
#1 If there is not enough disk space the simple answer is to clean out your PC. Remove as many files, documents, programs and images as you can. Then run the windows disk cleanup program which can be found from the start menu by going to accessories then system tools.
What does disk cleanup do?
This removes files that windows only uses for program installation and compresses files that you hardly use, making them smaller and saving space.
#2 The most obvious way to stop malicious software getting onto your computer is by installing an up to date antivirus software and a firewall. The anti virus software will detect the software and a firewall will alert you to any suspicious activity as malware tries to steal information from your computer and deliver it elsewhere.
Sometimes malicious software gets past this defense and hides itself away, constantly monitoring what you are done and wrecking your computers performance as it runs hidden in the background, but there is still a way you can stop this.
How can you do this?
#3 Having a registry cleaner allows you to detect entries for spyware, malware and other malicious software hiding away in the windows registry. Without a registry entry they cannot work and an up to date registry scanner can find and disable them fast, even if they have bypassed your other defenses. A registry cleaner will also find and uncover registry errors and out of date and obsolete registry entries that are causing slow computer performance and generating countless errors messages in windows and causing your PC to constantly pause and freeze.
To run a registry cleaner the first step you need to carry out is to download a free registry scanner that will find anything malicious, corrupt or damaged in the registry. This only takes a few minutes and anyone can do it. Once you have done this you can get rid of all these errors in second and make your computer run like the day you took it out of the box.

Linux vs Windows
The hottest issue today is to use which operating system and why. Microsoft windows has its own market and million of users and why linux is used as a server in nearly 80% Internet Service Providers. what makes a difference? how comparison of both are possible? why instead of a great user free environment of windows, most network administrators like and prefer linux. here is the reason....
1. Browsing becomes 4 times faster with the same hardware and Internet connection
2. No dependence on a single supplier for any product.
3. Ability to protect data so that no agency in the world can access it without the data owner's permission.
4. A Linux server can be up for hundreds of days.
5. Linux memory management is far superior to that of Windows.

18. You do not need to install Linux on a machine to use it. You can run it completely from the CD Drive. Even on a computer with a virus infected or nonexistent hard disk. You shall still be able to work on any files on the hard disk without worries of infection.
19. There is no "Blue Screen" error in Linux because those errors simply do not occur.
20. Linux can be used on a wide range of computers, for a wide range of purposes.
21. Linux runs on more Central Processing Units and platforms than any other computer operating system.
22.. Linux is fast, and will run on lesser hardware than many other operating systems. Your old 486 can do something useful again with Linux.
23. For using Linux you need not dump your existing Operating System. Linux will go along with any other operating systems.
24. You can save cookies, passwords, and all other secret stuff and feel confident that spy wares, viruses and even the system administrator can not access your data unless you them to.
25. You get to pick your favorite text editor from a selection of dozens.
26. Windows gives you one inadequate editor -- Notepad.
27. Linux users can pick from dozens of tools to do word processing and typesetting.
28. Microsoft provides one, Word, and even that pales in comparison to
29. With Linux, you can always find out what the system is doing, and why.

Capitalize on Customer Migration With Credit Union Software
The current state of the Financial Services Industry is reminiscent of the ancient curse, "May you live in interesting times." While the results of the bailout of the troubled mortgage industry remain to be seen, it is only compounding a trend of migratory behavior among customers of financial institutions.
Once upon a time, such institutions were revered as family legacies. A person simply used the same bank used by other family members, and they remained customers for life. Somewhere along the line, the financial industry became highly competitive. Perks became the name of the game, with incentives ranging from no-fee checking accounts to free iPods dangling before the eyes of potential customers. As fees and service charges became issues with customers, institutions sought to lower or eliminate them completely at both the point of sale and at ATMs.
Most important of all, interest rates became king. Customers began to migrate, going where deposit rates were high and loan rates were low. This created a world of rate shoppers.
As if all of this weren't enough, the Freddie Mac / Fannie Mae meltdown has put even more customers into motion. This time they are jumping from giant conglomerates to the perceived safety of small, local institutions.
While this may bode well for the Credit Union, it has only increased the competition. The times are indeed interesting. However, as the financial crisis of 2008 continues to play out, will Credit Unions be prepared to remain competitive as things return to normal?
When combined with their Sharetec credit union system, Ultimate Checking (also known as Rewards Checking) from GBS gives Credit Unions a powerful tool to draw and retain new customers, offer new options to existing customers, and enhance the bottom line of any institution.
The GBS/Sharetec system maintains the processing without the human capital. Using this credit union software, Credit Union personnel can measure customer performance through a simple inquiry. Members can gauge their own performance through the use of Sharetec Home Banking. The Sharetec Rewards Checking program is both integrated and automated to insure ease of use for both Credit Union and member.
Further, the metrics and rewards are integrated into the GBS/Sharetec Rewards program software. Once Reward program parameters are set, the system will automatically track, reward accounts, and reset any counters at the appropriate time. All counters are updated in real-time with activity and can be viewed by Credit Union personnel and, ultimately, the member through Sharetec Home Banking.
Finally, GBS credit union software is designed from the ground up. The program fully integrates into the core of the Sharetec system, and Credit Unions worked closely with Sharetec developers in order to develop the feature set. In essence, it is co-designed by Credit Unions, for Credit Unions.

Yes - You Need an Article Submitter
The adage "Work smarter, not harder" really applies to writing and submitting EzineArticles.
Ezine articles are without a doubt one of the best ways to drive traffic to your affiliate site and to increase your SEO.
Whether doing a submittal manually or using an article submitter, the basics do not change. Before submitting to an article site one must register. This procedure is usually filling out an online form, and receiving a confirmation sent to your e-mail address. Click on this confirmation and you are a registered user. You log on to the submit site using your ID and password. Next, enter a Pen Name. Now you are ready to click on Submit Article.
It is at this juncture where an article submitter comes into play. Submitting manually gets the job done but is tedious and time consuming. An article submitter speeds up the data entry. Why is this important? It is generally accepted that to be a successful Ezine article writer, one must submit 2 - 3 articles per week to hundreds of article sites. Doing this by hand is simply not possible. Look at the author statistics on any site and you will see that the successful authors have submitted hundreds, even thousands of articles. They are making impressive monthly incomes.
There are many article submitter software programs on the market, Article Submitter, Article Submitter Gold, My Article Pro, My Article Submitter, and Article Money, to name a few. They vary in features, ease of use, and cost. Most offer a Free download for trial use. These are fully operational, but some limit the number of days the program can be used and others limit the size of the submit site database. Why do they give a Free download? So you can see for yourself the benefits of the program by hands-on use. For example, in my case I downloaded a Free trial version and used it to submit an article to several sites. I was impressed with my article being Auto-Filled instead of having to do the tedious cut and paste exercise. The trial program came with a database of 80 article sites, but I immediately ordered the full version with a database of over 600 sites. To me, the program was worth the price if for nothing more than getting the list of 600 sites to submit articles. Now I had the tool to quickly submit articles, complete with list of sites that would be continually updated. My time could now be better spent on writing new articles.
What should an article submitter NOT do for you? It should not be a robot spam type program. This type of submittal is frowned upon, a nuisance to the submit sites, and can get you banned from the best article sites.
What should a good article submitter do for you? It should let you go through the submit process step by step as you normally would, just making it easier and faster to make the submittal. Logging on to a site for the first time, requires a few steps whether manual or using an article submitter. One must enter the ID and Password, and select a Pen Name. Lets go through the steps and see where the article submitter saves time. Go to the article submit website. Immediately your ID and Password are filled in by the article submitter. You can go directly to Submit Article. Instantly your entire article is auto-filled, the Title, Author name, Summary, Body, and Resource Box. Stunning, no time consuming cut and paste. Manually select a Category, as this the only way to ensure that your article ends up in the correct category and sub-category. Click Submit, then Log Off. Your article will look totally hand submitted. The article submitter will automatically enter the submit date in your database, and give you a chance to type in a note or comment. No more pencil and paper notes covering your desk. Then, on to the next site. And where did the next site come from? The site database in your article submitter! The article submitter is a win-win, saving time by eliminating the tedious article cutting and pasting, and eliminating the time consuming chore of building your own list of article submit sites.
If you are not using an article submitter, you may very well be spending more than you are making. Quality articles quickly submitted to hundreds of submit sites is the key to being successful. There is a way to accomplish this. Yes, You Need an Article Submitter.

How To Stop Windows Viruses From Infecting Mac Files in VmWare Fusion
If the virtualised Windows computer is hit by a virus, there's a good chance it will infect the files in your shared /User directory. More over viruses even target shared folders. VMWare Fusion shares User directory with virtualised Windows installations. This is made automatically and independently of OS X's file sharing systems, that means it works even if both Windows Sharing and Personal File Sharing are not turned on in System Preferences (even if MAC OS-X's firewall is turned on).
The resolution is to turn off VMWare Fusion's sharing attribute, and then build a shared folder in the virtual Windows machine, which you can access with OS X's Finder. In this way, any virus will not "notice" files on the OS-X host, but you can still switch files back and forth. The following commands are for a virtualized XP Home. In XP Pro sharing preferences are slightly different, but you can easily figure it out. Once these commands are followed, you can still drag files between the virtual machine and the OS X desktop:
Shutting down the virtual Windows via Start -> Turn Off Computer.
On VMWare Fusion Click Settings for the virtual machine, click on Shared Folders on left, and remove all checks against Enabled and Enabled at Power On.
Now Restart the virtual machine.
When booted,choose folder that you want to share and right-click (such as My Pictures) then click on Properties.
Click on Sharing tab and click on hyperlinked text that says "If you understand the security risks but want to share files..."
In the dialog that appears, click Just Enable File Sharing, and click OK.
Click Share This Folder On the Network, and then click Allow Network Users to Change my Files. Click OK.
Now you will need IP address of the virtualized Windows computer. Most likely it will be 192.168.61.129, but you can check by clicking Start -> Run, typing cmd, and typing ipconfig at the prompt. Look for the line that reads IP Address.
On the OS X host computer, open a Finder window and click Go -> Connect to Server.
On the Server Address line, type smb://192.168.61.129 (possibly replacing the IP address with the one you discovered earlier). Click Connect.
A dialog should appear letting you log into the Windows share. You might have to type your Windows user-name and password. If there is no password, leave the password field blank.
Surely, you can create an OS X desktop shortcut to the share, too. Simply right-click the icon that appears after you mount the share and click Make Alias. Make sure to drag the new mount to the Trash before shutting down the virtual machine.
