ABOUT SCANNING:\n\nScanning is a legacy of the Unix/Win95/98 era. Before, everytime your computer crashed or turned off without a proper shutdown, it would recommend that you scan the hard drive for disk errors. In fact, many older Unix machines require you to do this; otherwise, they just wouldn't run. WinXP and Win2K are quite resistant against these types of errors, which rarely occur anyway.\n\nSo, you only need to scan when your computer turns off without a proper shutdown sequence. In addition, you could run the scan once every several months just to be safe. It probably won't have a tangible difference though. And if you have WinXP, you probably never need to run the scan more than once every 6 months.\n\nABOUT DEFRAGMENTING:\n\nYou need to defrag your computer if the hard drive starts making a lot of "clicking" noises every time it is accessed. Defragmenting once every other week with Win98/ME, once every month with Win2K, and once every other month with WinXP is recommended if you move a lot of files around.\n\nYou should run the analyze tool that comes with the defragmenter. If it's over 15-25% fragmented, you should run defrag. This is especially true if you're using Win 98/ME. Win2K/WinXP use NTFS, so they're less prone to fragmentation.\n\nIn addition, WinXP automatically defrags your computer on idle. I move thousands of files each week, and it's still less than 10% fragmented.\n\nSo if you use WinXP, unless you hear your hard drive making "clicking" noises and slowing down, you don't need to defragment it more than once a month. Personally, I almost never have to defrag my hard drive.\n\nLastly, if you have a small hard drive or not much ram, you'll probably be using a larger portion of your hard drive for the pagefile, which will get accessed more often. In this case, you'll need to defragment your hard drive much more often.

Formatting a computer is a destructive process that either:\na) removes the computers knowledge of where pieces of files are\nb) obliterates the hard drive as well, writing blank data over it.\n\nYou can't undelete these files: They aren't just flagged as ready for deletion as if you had just normally deleted it. The operating system has no idea where the files are any more.\n\nThe operation is irrecoverable unless you want to pay a data retrieval company a large amount of money (thousands of dollars) to get the data back.\n\nSorry!

That's a readme file. Open it with WinRAR / WinZIP internal viewer or Notepad.\n\nAlso, be careful of warez. You'll likely encounter a virus / Trojan / backdoor you weren't expecting and that isn't easily detected.

Winzip is a data compression tool. Whenever you want to compress a file/data to a smaller size so that you can copy it on a disk, or send it as an attachment, or to create more hard disk space, then just open Winzip and compress the file. It gets compressed upto one third the file size (depending on the file type and size). The zipped file will get an extension as .zip. So if I zip a file called yahoo.txt which is 5MB in size, it will get renamed to yahoo.zip which probably cud be 1.5MB to 3MB. The file will be seen as a yellow vice holding a bunch of files. To unzip the file, just double click on it on a system which has Winzip installed on it. It is safe. Newer versions are available, but the functionality still remains the same.\na Winzip file can be renamed (as long as it has the extension .zip) and can be opened in WinRAR and other such compression tools.\n** Never try to open a zip file that has been sent to you as an attachment by an unknown person. It cud be a virus.

Its the memory disk in you computer.  Its hard - a solid disk.  The term made more sense when the only portable memory device was a soft plastic "Floopy" disk about five inches wide.

This is not nescessary. whenever the computer shuts down, everything in memory is erased. If you are looking to remove a process that runs and is taking up ram you must locate the actual progam that is loading that process into ram.

Space rips would be things like wormholes and black holes.\nThey are singularities produced by large masses.

Please clear your question.\n\nA 't' or 'T' as the last character of the "ls -l" mode characters\nindicates that the "sticky" (save text image) bit is set. See ls(1) for\nan explanation the distinction between 't' and 'T'.\n\nThe sticky bit has a different meaning, depending on the type of file it\nis set on...\n\nsticky bit on directories\n=========================\n[From chmod(2)]\nIf the mode bit S_ISVTX (sticky bit) is set on a directory, files\ninside the directory may be renamed or removed only by the owner of\nthe file, the owner of the directory, or the superuser (even if the\nmodes of the directory would otherwise allow such an operation).\n\n[Example]\ndrwxrwxrwt  104 bin        bin          14336 Jun  7 00:59 /tmp\n\nsticky bit on regular files\n===========================\n[From chmod(2)]\nIf an executable file is prepared for sharing, mode bit S_ISVTX prevents\nthe system from abandoning the swap-space image of the program-text\nportion of the file when its last user terminates.  Then, when the next\nuser of the file executes it, the text need not be read from the file\nsystem but can simply be swapped in, thus saving time.\n\n[From HP-UX Kernel Tuning and Performance Guide]\nLocal paging. When applications are located remotely, set the "sticky\nbit"\non the applications binaries, using the chmod +t command. This tells the\nsystem to page the text to the local disk. Otherwise, it is "retrieved"\nacross the network. Of course, this would only apply when there is actual\npaging occurring. More recently, there is a kernel parameter,\npage_text_to_local, which when set to 1, will tell the kernel to page all\nNFS executable text pages to local swap space.\n\n[Example]\n-r-xr-xr-t   6 bin        bin         24111111111664 Nov 14  2000\n/usr/bin/vi\n\nsticky bit on symlinks\n======================\nIn HP-UX 10.0 and later, a symbolic link that has its sticky bit set is\ncalled a transition link (i.e. links to ease the transition to the new\nSVR4 filesystem layout).  Transition links are a bit faster, because  the\nlinked-to filename is stored in the inode itself, instead of using an\nallocation unit to store the link.  For more info on the purpose for\ntransition links, see the tlinstall(update_aid) manpage.\n\nIn order to set the sticky bit on a symlink, one must use the\nundocumented\nlchmod system call (i.e. lchmod("/bin", 041777)).\n\n[Example]\nlr-xr-xr-t   1 root       sys              8 Jun  7 01:00 /bin ->\n/usr/bin

You will just have to try different rip-programs.  Mac the Ripper is by far the best but you have to have Mac OS.

I downloaded something called Free CD Ripper.  The older versions work better because newer versions pick up the encoding on the CDs.

It's like doritos for humans. A computer chip is a crunchy chip you feed your computer when it slows down.

it means, u'r ram is short of memory. the best solution is to close a programe. the permanent solution is to upgrade u'r computer's ram
