The Ultimate Virus Protection Guide
Found this on Gizmodo today. Pretty good guide.
So you got caught with your pants down on the Internet (figuratively, folks) and contracted a virus. That sucks. Or maybe you were wearing protection but still fell victim to some nasty bit of code that managed to slip by your antivirus software undetected. That sucks even more. Either way, it’s nothing to feel ashamed about. The web is a dangerous place and even the most tech savvy users sometimes slip up. You can even get a virus through no fault of your own simply by visiting a reputable website that, unbeknownst to you, has been compromised by a hacker with malicious intent. The web is a war zone, and even if you’re not a target, you can still end up a casualty.
That’s not to say you can’t stack the odds decidedly in your favor, because you can. And you should. To help you do that, we’ve put together a comprehensive guide on how to protect your PC from malware. We cover everything from smart (and not so smart) computing habits, the best free antivirus programs, and what tools work best for removing an infection when all else fails. Don your hazmat suits and let’s get started!

Ricoh Aficio MP 301 – PDF and Senders Name
So I always forget these 2 settings when setting up a new Richo Aficio MP 301 SPF on our network to support scan to email. This is also true for most all aficios.
First thing I forget to do is set the senders name. Seems like every time I can’t find it since I think its poorly labeled and have to search online forever! Hopefully this will save someone the headaches its always caused me.

Windows 8 – Update Gets Stuck
Man! I don’t think I like windows 8!!??
So, our computer was doing a windows update, when our little 16 month old decided to unplug the laptop…not knowing it was unplugged it shortly there after died.
When we plugged it in and turned it on the update continued….for hours!!! It would never finish. After hours, I shut down the computer and when I turned it back on it configured the update and was fine. It said the installation was successful. Wanting to check if it really worked, I went to the windows update window and we had 1 additional update. I installed it…and it did the same thing. It went to the blue screen, and “installed’ for hours. It would never switched over to configure…unless I shut the computer off and when I turned it back on it configured and was fine.
My worry is that during that original update when the laptop died the necessary components didn’t get downloaded and we are always going to struggle when Windows does an update… I’m afraid it is always going to “Install” and never finish. Is there anyway to get back to before the update happened? And then try and update again? Not sure the best plan here….Any ideas?
Not sure I like Windows 8!!!
Thanks,Erin
