Computer Viruses - The Real And Present Danger

If you've never been the victim of a computer virus, you may think that all of the uproar over these nasty little programs is making much ado out of nothing. You may even be thinking that computer security experts and anti-virus companies are using scare tactics to sell anti-virus software. After all, the bigger the problem, the more software people buy. Today, the anti-virus business is worth several billion dollars and it shows no sign of slowing down.

So, with all of this money at risk, you are certainly justified in wondering whether computer viruses really are as big a problem as the industry says they are.

Unfortunately, the answer is that they absolutely are. If you get a virus, you could actually lose your money, your identity and your computer's hard drive. With new viruses being developed constantly, the problem continues to grow. While many viruses are more annoying than destructive, even a "harmless" virus can use up valuable resources. The worst viruses can spread worldwide in a few days and wreak unbelievable havoc. The damage from one infamous virus can mean billions of dollars in lost business opportunities and damaged equipment.

With all of this bad news, is there any good news for computer users? Take this quick risk quiz:

1. Does your computer have antivirus software installed on it?

If you can say yes, you are much less a risk than people that don't have antivirus software. If you say no, than it is only a matter of time until you find out about viruses personally.

2. Does your computer have a firewall installed on it?

If your response is yes again, you can relax a bit. You're doing all you can do software wise to keep your computer safe from a deadly virus. If you say no again, you are leaving your computer wide open for an attack.

Despite all of the media attention paid to antivirus software, people still have the "It can't happen to me." mentality. They laugh off warnings to protect their computers and say that they are working just fine. They think that because they never actually initiate a file download or send and receive files with friends, they are safe. A few months go by and suddenly they can't get their computers to boot up forever and then when they finally do start, they plod along at a snail's pace.

To make things worse, quite a few of these computer users who leave their computers unprotected are actually taking classes for computer related careers. They are completely at sea when they have to try to repair the damage caused by a virus filled computer. Perhaps a basic class on computer care and repair is in order!

You are probably wondering how viruses develop anyway. Hackers are the people creating these nasty bugs, right? Actually, while some hackers may decide to create computer viruses, most of them spend all of their waking hours attempting to break in to the most secure and top secret systems they can find. People who write viruses are people with an ax to grind. They want to send a wake up message or show people that they are superior to them. Today, many people are concerned that computer viruses could be used as a terrorist weapon.

If you do get a computer virus, will you lose everything on your hard drive? It actually is rare for this type of virus to spread very fast or far. Annoying viruses that stop you from starting your computer or using windows or those that mail spoof emails to your entire email address book are much more common. The hard drive is usually recoverable when the computer has one of these viruses.

What about your financial and personal information? Are viruses really likely to swipe them from the computer. Absolutely. This is a common reason that viruses are created and spread.

Is there any way to keep your computer virus free? While no anti-virus software is foolproof, installing one of these programs can provide some protection. While there are anti-virus software programs that provide better protection, any of them will help somewhat. Even free anti-virus programs are actually able to ward off at least some viruses.

After reading this information on viruses and anti-virus software, you have probably resolved to get protection for your computer right away. If so, you won't be sorry. Dealing with viruses after you are infected is frustrating and time consuming. It is so much easier to keep a disaster from happening instead of trying to reconstruct a ton of missing data and worry about identity or financial thefts after the fact. Read more!

What is Rss?

Really Simple Syndication (RSS) is an XML-based format for content distribution via the Internet. This data format is used for serving users frequently updated content that contains web links to longer versions.

RSS is also called a web feed. "Publishing a feed" and "syndication" are two of the more common terms used to describe making available a feed from an information source, such as an article directory, blog., podcast or website. Feeds are also used to deliver structured information ranging from weather data to search results.

Web feeds have some advantages compared to receiving frequently published content via email:When subscribing to a feed, users do not disclose their email address, so users are not increasing their exposure to threats associated with email: spam, viruses, phishing, and identity theft.

Accessing RSS Web Feeds

XML is not very reader-friendly out of the box. If you click on an RSS feed link, your browser may display a page of unformatted gobbledygook. What you are looking at is the unformatted XML, although most newer browsers have a feed reader built in and will display an RSS file in an easy to read format like a web page.

A website or program that makes a customized collection we feeds available in one spot is known as an aggregator or feed reader. Many of them are free to use and allow you to receive updated content from many sources by logging into one web site or setting up software to run in the background on your computer and notify you when updated content is available.

The user subscribes to a particular web feed, and thereafter receives updated contents, every time updating takes place. When you subscribe to a given website's feed by using a feed reader, you'll receive a summary of new content from that website.

In the typical scenario of using web feeds, a content provider publishes a feed link on their site which end users can register with an aggregator program running on their own machines; doing this is usually as simple as dragging the link from the web browser to the aggregator. This is known as an offline web feed and is downloaded to the user's system.

You can also access RSS web feeds via an on-line aggregator. You create an account, then subscribe to feeds from within the aggregator or by clicking an RSS link on any website that offers web feeds. These feed readers are only available on-online, but keep you from having to download anything to your computer.

In either case, when instructed, the aggregator asks all the servers in its feed list if they have new content; if so, the aggregator either makes a note of the new content or downloads it.

If users want to stop receiving certain content, they do not have to send an "unsubscribe" request; users can simply remove the feed from their aggregator.

RSS web feeds allow users to save time by bringing all their sources of new content to them instead of having to search or visit many sites to get the information. Read more!

Final Fantasy XI Mmorpg Fun

You may have grown up with characters like Cloud Strife, Sepiroth, Tifa, Squall Lionheart, Yuna, and the likes. These are characters that have been integrated in popular culture, thanks to the wide success enjoyed by the franchise that spawned them. Indeed, the Final Fantasy series is anything but final. It is an enduring succession of wonderfully prepared and genre-breaking games that has captured the hearts of millions and millions of people around the world.

The Legend That Gave Birth To Final Fantasy XI

Let’s look at the facts. Every time a Final Fantasy game is released in Japan, their country stops. Students skip school. Urban professionals file for vacation or sick leaves. Long lines form outside retail stores. And the whole nation is engaged in a perpetual race as to who will get to finish the game first.

The same success was repeated in the United States since the release of Final Fantasy VII for the original Playstation. It was the first time that US gamers were introduced to polygonal characters in a role-playing game, and it heralded the start of America’s love affair with the beloved franchise.

But previous games had limited hours of play. Once you defeat the final boss, the game ends and the credit rolls.

The newest incarnation of the series, Final Fantasy XI, deviates from that. It takes the form of a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) where players participate in a persistent world that will never end. Indeed, Final Fantasy XI is the fantasy that will never end.

Final Fantasy XI: Not Just Your Ordinary MMORPG

It’s been two and a half years since the original release of Final Fantasy XI, together with its expansion pack Rise of the Zilart, for the personal computer, but the game shows no sign of slowing down, despite strong competition from newer MMORPG offerings like World of Warcraft, Star Wars Galaxies and Everquest II. The reason for this is simple. Final Fantasy XI is the only MMORPG that has been released for two platforms. Playstation II owners have the option to participate in this MMORPG game world through their consoles. And very soon, Xbox 360 owners will also be given such an opportunity. The result? More players are expected to join in the months to come, making the MMORPG world remain dynamic, diverse, and exciting.

If you’re a veteran MMORPG campaigner, you might find the Final Fantasy XI experience as completely unconventional. First of all, the control scheme utilizes the mouse as well as the keyboard for movement, which is far different from the simple point and click that other MMORPG systems employ. Second, the other aspects of the game are simplified, and you won’t have access to the maximized leveling up that other MMORPG systems afford. This is both good and bad. Good because customization can take hours in most MMORPG systems, which can prove dragging. Bad because some players do prefer total control over how their characters develop.

These aside, the MMORPG world of Vana’diel promises to offer a lot of fascinating adventures for the gamer. With close to a dozen classes and jobs, a world at the crossroads of magic, warfare, and technology, and the backing of the most successful RPG developer in history, Final Fantasy XI is an experience that would define this age of MMORPG gaming.

Is Final Fantasy XI Worth $12.95 A Month?

Square Interactive, a division of Square Enix, does charge $12.95 per month of play, as well as an additional $1 per new character created under the same account. Relatively speaking, Final Fantasy XI is one of the most expensive MMORPG programs today.

The question is not really a matter of how much. Rather, it is a matter of whether or not the experience is worth it.

The answer is a resounding yes!

Final Fantasy XI offers a different flavor compared to your usual MMORPG flair. The difference is as great as that of an American-developed RPG and a Japanese-developed game. Japan is the home of console RPGs, while America is where PC RPGs reign supreme. Both genres offer a diverse experience. While some people prefer the feel and the atmosphere of PC RPGs, a lot actually enjoy console RPGs better.

Final Fantasy XI has the console RPG feel, which is quite an accomplishment for an MMORPG. It’s definitely one of a kind, and stands proud for its uniqueness in a world populated by different MMORPG programs that come in different skins but offer the same experience.

And with its recently released expansion, Chains of Promathia, as well as the Treasures of Ath Urhgan in the horizons, Final Fantasy XI solidifies itself as an investment very much worth making. It is truly an MMORPG that has, and will continue to, withstand the test of time. Read more!
