Bill's Links and More

Welcome to my little part of the web. Hopefully you won't leave here empty handed.

As you can tell, my name is Bill. I currently reside in Northern CA with my beautiful wife and 3 new kitties. By day I’m an Office Manager for a Medical company. I am also a certified PC repair technician working on my A+ certifications (though it’s been interrupted by learning web design lately).

After spending years helping people with their computer problems and collecting all kinds of links from numerous places and searches etc., I decided that I wanted to put a site together for people who love to surf the internet and to help point people in the right directions to find the help they need or to help themselves. Hopefully one of the things you learn along the way is how to keep your computer clean of spyware and virus free. You learn really quickly how to fix things when you have to do it the hard way and when it's too late.

Another thing you learn is not to believe everything you read about on the internet or in the newspapers for that matter. You learn all kinds of things as you go along, and one day you wake up and you're no longer afraid of your computer. It becomes your friend, not a thousand dollar plus paper weight!

I decided to share some of the most helpful links I've ever had the fortune to come across when I was searching frantically for information on how to remove a home page hijacker from hell or that I came upon while researching something. I've been collecting information and useful links for years and I enjoy helping people with their computer problems in my spare time.

This site uses a little bit of Java and Javascript. There are no harmful active x controls or scripts used on this site. I update this site on a regular basis. A new edition to this page is the updates found towards the bottom of this page, and news headlines on a few other pages.

A little bit about the web site:

My Favorite Sites page has a handful of my sites I like to visit on a daily or weekly basis. I have entirely too many favorites to list on one page.

The Basic Windows Tips page has basic tips for using some of Windows built in utilities such as Check Disk, Disk Defragmenter, Windows Cleanup utility and information on cleaning temporary internet files, using System Restore and how to bypass the automatic login created when you install the .NET Framework. More tips will be added as time allows.

The 'Free' program pages started out as one page. As it progressed, it became too large to fit on one page so I broke it down into five pages. Programs include Anti-Virus, Uninstallers, desktop search tools, browser toolbars and add-ons, temporary and internet file cleaners, firewalls, graphic editors and creators, zip utilities, alternate web browsers and more. All are freeware or only request donations. If you use a free program, and appreciate what it does for you, take the time to make a donation, even if it's little. A lot of freeware software I've used works better than a lot of commercial software. The programs listed are copyright of the owner and are by no means a complete collection. They're a collection of useful free programs that several people have asked for in the past to help in their computing experiences. Most of them I have tried at one time or another. None of them contain spyware. The pages give you descriptions, pictures (if possible) and links to the programs' home page.

The Links pages contain over 3500 unique links broken down into 15 categories:

If I had more time I could probably break them down into at least 50 more categories. I have purposely tried not to include links that have numerous pop-ups, are harmful to your computer or are affiliated with spyware in any way. Always pay attention to what you do and click on when visiting any link and use common sense. Please feel free to pass the links along to others.

The Spyware removal aid page contains information about dealing with spyware....what it is, how to prevent it, how to remove it, useful free and commercial/shareware programs to fight it, etc. The more people that know how to fight this growing problem and that can help educate others, the better. Knowledge is the key to prevention.

The Registry tweaks and Registry info pages contain basic information about the Windows XP registry and the importance it plays in your computer operations. There is information on how to back it up and a few different tweaks that have been requested by others on a regular basis. If you have something to add please let me know. More will be added as time allows.

The Programs I use page is a partial list of programs I use on a daily or weekly basis to protect my computers as well as explanations of what they do and where to get them, and a few other programs that people might find useful. I've played with a lot of programs over the years. I love to download and tryout programs to see how effective they are for me. If I trust them and they work well, I share them with others.

The information within these pages is supplied as is. I have personally used all the tips in these pages. No guarantee of any kind, implied, expressed or otherwise is made in relation to the accuracy, reliability or content of these pages. I will not be held liable for any damages arising from the use of, or inability to use these pages.

Site update news: April 22, 2006

Some of you may have noticed that once you did your monthly Microsoft updates, you have to click on some parts of web pages that use Flash and a few other ActiveX controls (such as this update box) to activate it. When you move your mouse over an embedded object, a gray outline will appear around it and a tooltip will appear telling you that you need to click to activate and use this control. Information about the update and known issues affected by it can be found at the Microsoft update site. See this Technet Blog for more information.

Other major issues affected by the Microsoft April 2006 monthly updates include how it affects older versions of Hewlett-Packard's (HP's) Share-to-Web software (the software affected comes with scanners, digital cameras, printers etc.), some older versions of NVIDIA's drivers. and it could damage major functions in Windows. For a partial list of the problems and some resolutions see Microsoft Support. Microsoft will be releasing a patch for people affected by the monthly updates.

There are some work arounds for web developers that I am implementing into this site. For any web designers, a couple work arounds can be found at the Rippa Blogspot and Deconcept's FlashObject. A Microsoft solution can be found at the Microsoft Library.

Over the course of the next few months I'll be redesigning the complete site to make things more organized and giving it a different look. The updates have not been as frequent lately since I've been working heavily on that. Thank you for visiting.

My first blog was published: January 14, 2006

My first blog The perils of purchasing a computer online was published on the Infopackets Gazette web site. It was inspired by a lousy experience I had with Ibuypower.com. After purchasing a computer from them, 15 months later the motherboard died. They couldn't tell me the part numbers or get replacement parts. I could write a blog on why not to buy from them, but I'll be nice. Thank you Dennis Faas and your editors.
