I've always used Nero in previous Windows versions. Do I still need it (or some other program) in Windows 7, or is the built-in burning software (whatever it might be) good enough?
for sensitive data, would it be better to have a somewhat long, but memorable password (and hence not totally random) or use a program like keepass to make a super long, random password with the highest possible entropy, and then just write down the password on a piece of paper kept in ones pocket.
If that bang on the door comes, then swallow the paper. Which is a better security practice? I'm not in any way a criminal, i just am curious about topics concerning security. Thanks.
I have installed VMWare Player in my Windows 7 Ultimate and I have added Ubuntu 12.10 in a virtual machine. The problem is that every time I power off the virtual machine everything is lost. I mean every program I install or folder i save or anything else is lost completely. And when I start the again the virtual machine is like newly installed.
Is there an option to change this (strange) behaviour?
I ask in seriousness. Please do not post answers like, "because Windows sucks!"
Why do Macs pretty much never get viruses/worms/trojans, in comparison to Windows? Is one reason the rwx permission implementation, where that I must explicitly grant a program execute permission to run?
What would be another reason?
I'm running WAMP server on Windows Server 2003, Apache 2.2, and I would like to completely disable writing into the access log.
It would be neat if I could do the following, but I'm on Windows:
CustomLog "|/dev/null" common
All I get in the error log is "piped log program '/dev/null' failed unexpectedly", although I kinda expected this...
Is there a Windows alternative to this or any other way to just disable writing the access log?
Hi,

Thanks
Hi. Everybody knows the Gnome program (I can remember the package name right now, or if it's Nautilus itself) that gives us the menu "connect to server" that we can login in a remove ftp, ssh, windows, and much more and mount it very easily. Looks pretty much like expandrive for macos.
What I need is a tool like that. But for KDE. Anyone knows?
Thanks!
Changes made to system or program settings which are stored in the registry are restored to a previous values after a reboot.
This question was also posted Each time I do restart - Windows 8 resets my settings/registry to some state
The "solution" was to create a new user - this is not an option as the user is defined by the domain server.
Does anyone know what is causing the resetting and what a proper solution is?
Hi
I've just finished installing Visual Studio 2010 professional onto Vista. But don't seem to have Silverlight 4.
If I try to create a new project I can see Silverlight project templates but only seem to be able to target Silverlight 3.
Is Silverlight 4 not part of vs2010 pro by default?
I also noticed the msbuild targets is missing ie the v4.0 folder doesn't exist at the following folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\Silverlight\
Any help/thoughts would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Chris

When hovering a program group, a sneak-preview of the windows list of the group appear. What I wanna do is to re-arrange the item in that list. Please help!
The new version of Skype is always stuck on my Super-Bar(unless i exit the program), which is really annoying. There is not option to minimize it to the tray at least in Skype options. Had anyone figured out how to do that?
I am using Word 2007 and am trying to use the combo:
Ctrl + mouse scroll
To zoom in and out of the doc.
This function works fine in other programs (like google-chrome)
Is there a place to fix this ?
edit: I found out that when I scroll the mouse FAST the desired effect happens. I would like it to also work with slower scrolling. The thing is also that on any other program - the scrolling acts as normal. (so this is not a system wide preference)
Title pretty much says it all ... anyone know of a benchmarking program for measuring usb sticks read/write speeds ? (if it can produce its own files, even better ... in terms of (lots of small files)/(few big ones)).
I had to reinstall Vista and all of my programs and I want to know how to copy my normal.dot that I have saved on a flash drive into the word 2003 program.
Is there a way to convert video, lets say, from .vob to .avi? (and to make it 'smaller', for ex. DVD 4.2 GB to .avi file of 700 MB)
If it is possible, which one would you recommend, as being the best, for the Windows XP?
I'm interested in some simple program, something that beginners can easily use.
I was just poking around in /usr/bin and I found an ELF binary file called [. /usr/bin/[. I have never heard of this file and my first thought was that it was a clever way of hiding a program, possibly a trojan. However it's present on all my CentOS servers and seems to have no manual entry. I can hazard a guess as to what it is but I was looking for a more authoritative answer...
Hi
I need to block access by a certain Windows program to specific paths of a web site, but not to other paths on that site. Therefore I think using the hosts file won't be helpful for that.
Is there any way to block access to URLs matching a regular expression or even just those containing a specific substring?
Thanks!

How do I go about performing a full, bare metal disaster recovery from BRU Server backups?
I have backed up the entire C:\ (including Windows, Program Files etc) of a test machine (using Open File Manager) and want to restore this to a new server.
What is the procedure I need to go through to restore to a clean server using my backup? How does this work with various services such as DHCP, DNS, Active Directory, SQL Server, Windows Registry etc?
Thanks in advance.
Hello,
I wonder is it possible to automatically create add-on domains (www.mydomain.com/first, www.mydomain.com/second...)? I know it can be done in cPanel, but I'd like to have a program that creates add-on domains based on the user input.
Tnx,
Stjepan
There is how the book I'm reading describe the insmod utility:
The program loads the module code and
data into the kernel, which, in turn,
performs a function similar to that of
ld, in that it links any unresolved
symbol in the module to the symbol
table of the kernel. Unlike the
linker, however, the kernel doesn’t
modify the module’s disk file, but
rather an in-memory copy.
It looks like it won't persist since it's in-memory, but I'm not sure.
