well, im not sure what ardware is, but two similar words, hardware and adware, i can define.\n\nHardware is what is physically in your computer if you opened up the case. It typically consists of a Mother Board, Power Supply, Hard Drive, Proccessor, RAM Cards, Video Card, and CD drive. Software is the applications you run on your computer. Windows XP is software.\n\nAdware is a program designed to promote advertisements on your computer. They can also give access to your computer remotely as to "hack" or break into your computer. I would recomend getting both Adaware and SpyBot S&E from http://www.download.com install both of them and update them. Then run 3 full system sweeps with each one. Once you do that, just run one full cycle for each of them once a week and you should be good.

(m)\n\nSpyware is a broad category of malicious software intended to intercept or take partial control of a computer's operation without the user's informed consent. While the term taken literally suggests software that surreptitiously monitors the user as a spy would, it has come to refer more broadly to software that subverts the computer's operation for the benefit of a third party.

AdAware is a terrific utility for getting rid of spyware but does not protect your computer from viruses or trojans. There are free antivirus software programs available from download.com, the ones I have seen that seem to work fairly well are Avast and AVG anti virus.  You might also consider adding a firewall to prevent intrusion into your computer system. Zone Alarm is a good free one available from zonelabs.com.  Hope this helps

Well, i have been in this idea for more than 6 years..\n- Short story: is to compress my folders into RaR files, in this case no virus can attack it (It is unknown file type for most users) and win some space. I also made it to run once a month at a specific time using Windows Schedular, so it will generate a rar archive every 15th of month at 9:45 AM, since I am not at home at that time and don't need the computer.\n- Long story: WinRaR is a copression software, and needs some time to backup my 10 GB files every month, but it is worth it, as I started to save it to DVDs.\nAnd of course I tried backup software, like Nero Backup, but these softwares make another copy for my folder tree, and they generate a hard disk error once, so I go back to WinRaR.\nI tried Win backup, but it does not compress, so back to WinRaR.\n\ne-mail me for further info\n\nXLMan

Open these with WinRAR from http://www.rarlab.com\n\nIt will allow you to open many types of files, including some the .RAR files. It is advertised as a 30-day trial, but it seems to keep working after the 30 days, just with a nag screen on the start. Its nothing big though, its quite small and you just need to click Close to get rid of it.
