Social Networking, Emails, Chatting all with one software
Technology is increasing day by day with an exponential rate and with that it is becoming necessary to move on with the technology. From my childhood I had a habit of digging into every new technology so it started with Hotmail when I created an account on it. Then came Yahoo and I made an account on that also recently with the popularity of Gmail I also made an account on it. So from time to time I made various accounts on Hotmail, Yahoo and Gmail because there was lot of info on the internet so it was becoming difficult for me to store all of that in a single email account.
If Your Password Is 123456, Just Make It HackMe
Back at the dawn of the Web, the most popular account password was “12345.”
Today, it’s one digit longer but hardly safer: “123456.”
Despite all the reports of Internet security breaches over the years, including the recent attacks on Google’s e-mail service, many people have reacted to the break-ins with a shrug.
According to a new analysis, one out of five Web users still decides to leave the digital equivalent of a key under the doormat: they choose a simple, easily guessed password like “abc123,” “iloveyou” or even “password” to protect their data.
The Top 5 Google Alternatives and Why You Should Use Them
Google has been the leading search engine in Pakistan as well as rest of the world for as long as I can remember. Launched as a small beta start up in 1996 at the domain google.stanford.edu using inexpensive hardware, you wouldn’t think then that it would ever become the success it is today with so few useful Google alternatives available.
In fact, in 1998 when it first went live on the official Google.com domain, the beta was publically labeled by its creators as a “might-work-some-of-the-time-prototype”.

12 things computer users should fear in 2010 – Part 2

6. Spam
Spammers took a body blow during 2009 when the notorious McColo Internet Service Provider was kicked off-line. The volume of spam plummeted from around 80 percent of all e-mail to 20 percent. Temporarily. By year’s end, nine out of 10 e-mails were spam, and the number keeps climbing.
“Can it get to 95 percent?,” Lee asked, rhetorically. “It never ceases to amaze me how much we put up with this.”
7. Finally, Apple gets respect – from cybercriminals
For years, the worst-kept secret in the computer security world was the safety of using Macintosh computers. It seemed that criminals didn’t bother trying to attack Macs. This was no political statement, however. It was merely pragmatism: Apple products were a small target. But with the uptick in Mac market share, the increasingly popularity of Apple’s Safari Web browser and the ubiquity of the iPhone, expect criminals to target Steve Jobs’ products, says Leonard. Already, he says, there have been a handful of iPhone attacks.
12 things computer users should fear in 2010 – Part 1
About once a year, computer security news leaps out of the technology section and onto the front page and the top of network news broadcasts. This year, the day was April Fools’ Day, as the Conficker worm became the latest malicious program with the power to eat the Internet. Somehow, we soldiered on, most of us without ever having to kick on the emergency power generators or dig into that can of spam in the basement shelter.

But Conficker, while no dramatic outbreak, was also no laughing matter to the hundreds of thousands of Web users who were infected. The problem with the hype cycle in computer security news is that it can have an incremental “cry wolf” effect on computer users. The odds that the Internet will topple over in 2010 are, once again, quite low. But serious threats abound and bad guys are mostly still outpacing good guys in our virtual world, which will be slightly more dangerous than this year. Here are 12 reasons why:
Give Your PC a “Flu Shot”

Was browsing the internet and came across this useful article by Doctor Security from ZoneAlarm website so sharing it with you guys.
It’s “flu season” and what do many people do to protect themselves from coming down with a bad bug? Right, they get a flu shot. It’s preventive medicine. I think we all can agree that it’s best to be proactive when it comes to our personal health. Well, guess what? The same philosophy also applies to the health of our personal computers and the personal information contained on them.
Unfortunately, it’s always open season for those of us who have PCs. You can get a computer virus or be targeted for a cyber attack at anytime. So it is very important to be proactive when it comes to safeguarding your PC and your personal data.
