I have always thought that the McAfee anti virus, until my computer crashed and I let someone else fix it and they put the AVG anti-virus on it. It is completely free and works like a dream. Hopefully the next time my computer needs fixing it will be me fixing it. If there is a threat that something bad is about to corrupt your computer, AVG lets you know before its already invaded it. It will show a little pop-up stating that this file or whatever you might be trying to do is going to put your computer at risk, that way you have a chance to stop it before its to late, and the virus has already invaded it. It also automatically does updates, so everything is always in good shape, and if it isn't than AVG will let you know. It will tell you that you need to get rid of this before it is to late and your computer is corrupt. I personally like AVG because it is free, and it does the same good work as any of the other anti-virus software that you have to pay a fortune for. Plus you have to pay for the ant-virus software every year, because usually it only last one year. The good thing about AVG it works until you uninstall it.
Another free software that I find to be very intriguing is Pic pick. This little wonder is beautiful for us that have this need to redo our photographs or change something that we don't like about one that we have taken. Pic pick is a really great program for taking screenshots and editing them right down to the way you want them. With Pic pick you can crop you photo's down to exactly every little item you want to keep in them. This free program Pic pick as the name states is a screen capture freeware tool. But, there is more to this little package than you would think, it has quite a few other little tools that make it easier to do what you want to do to your photo's. It includes a basic image editor, screen tools like a screen ruler, screen magnifier, whiteboard, color picker, color palette, and protractor. This little software program is absolutely perfect for the do it yourselfers
that want to fix their photographs the way they want them, or if you just want to get that little blotch out. you can pick out of several choices of what adjustments you would like to do to your photographs. If there is something in the background that you don't want in there you can use the crop button and bam its gone. This is really a neat program for all us IT students to have. We can learn from it, and will help us in the long run, just in case we have to edited photographs.
How to use the C Cleaner Video.
Another free software that I use every other day on my computer is the C Cleaner. I have used it for years now. I have a Dell computer that is at least 10 years old and I think that the C Cleaner is keeping it going. I love the way it cleans up all the crap that uninstalling leaves behind. It also will clean up stuff that has been left behind from just searching the web. You can also go to tools and it will pull up all the crap that you have downloaded on your computer and you just uninstall whatever you want to right from there. This keeps you from having to go to the start button and bringing up everything from your control panel. The C Cleaner makes things so much simplier and helps keep your computer cleaned up also.
Another software that I like to use is Skype. I love the
fact that it also is free and this one is extremely useful. We have to use Skype for Speech, we use it to give our speeches, the instructor just calls our Skype name and we answer it by clicking on "answer call." I have a real problem about getting up in front of class to give speeches or anything really, and this lets me talk straight to the instructor without having all my classmates there watching me. But if we wanted to have a class room chat Skype style we could. This is a very good program also if you have family or friends far away and don't get to talk to them much. With Skype you can video call them and its just like talking to them in person. To me this is the most awesome software since the telephone, ha!ha! Really if you have a microphone and webcam on your computer, this is really worth downloading. I love it.
