Your computer continues to start up slower than you remember it doing when you bought it. You may have already run Disk Cleanup, Error-checking and Defragmentation but things still frustrate you about its operation. Wouldn’t it be nice to have some "anti-frustration" software on your side? It may just be here now! Soluto created by…
Thanks for the emails regarding the previous Firefox Add-ons I have written about over the last couple of columns. Also, I’m glad to hear that several of you saved a lot of money using the "Invisible Hand" add-on I mentioned. Tim wrote to say he saved almost $100 on a purchase he made using that…

Yes, your super-duper electronic marvel has a battery in it. How do you think it keeps/kept accurate time…
Before I get into today’s discussion I wanted to mention the Bit.ly column from last week. If you missed last week’s column you will have to buy last week’s paper or go to DoubleClicks.info to check it out. The link that I mentioned about County Codes, bit.ly/a7Vmpo, was visited by 41 readers. Thanks for looking!…
Thanks for the many questions this week that all dealt with the same thing. Many readers wanted to know about all the references I have given out over the past several weeks. Most everyone wanted to know what the ‘bit.ly’ links were since they accessed different sites. First, allow me to give a short explanation…
First today I would like to thank all of you who read and applied what you learned from last week’s column. It was regarding the cloud storage platform Dropbox.com. Because some of you used the link I mentioned, I gained an additional 2 GB of storage. They have a maximum of 8 GB allowed free…
