  1. Another folder which I wrote a cleaning routine for some time ago, and it's included in CCleaner's winapp2.ini add-on is [*Config.msi Folder] which can get some clutter into it over time.

    Where that Config.msi folder is? Do you mean Windows/Config folder?

     

    edit: Did some Googling and found out that folder suppose to be in root C:, but i don't got it... Oh, and yes, hidden files were visible.

  2. There's also new warning for 'Opera Web Mail' users. (i think it applies to some other mail services as well.)

     

    Virus warning! Mails that contain attachments and claim to be from the Opera Mail staff are infected by the W32.Beagle.J@mm worm, and should be deleted. Read more about W32.Beagle.J@mm for detailed information.

  3. It would be nice to know, how secure the system really is on OS level, without an 3rd-party (or Windows build-in) firewall. Of course it would be easy to test with online security tests, BUT i don't like the idea to shut down the firewall, while connected to "big bad" internet.

     

    Can Windows be safe (from incoming attacks), if it's just (fully) patched and securily "tweaked"? Basicly, why to update Windows, if you run an decent firewall...? Of course it's good to update, but i mean basicly...

  4. It found tons of false positives on my system, out of 57 things it found only 3 from the list were items I deemed invalid. The other stuff I didn't want to mess with.

    What kind of false positive entries it (mostly) found? Like i mentioned, for me it mostly found "invalid" file extensions (13 entries). ...Just did some research and ended up to remove 2 of those founded extensions.

  5. In any event I use 7-Zip each and every day

    My primary zipping program is UltimateZip. It handles RAR archives also.

     

    Edit: Just noticed from UZ site, that 3.1 version got 7z and 7z sfx support. I got 3.0.3 version.

  6. It's good to change (some of) your passwords sometimes, even though you are sure, that your password is not in the wrong hands. I change my online banking password maybe 2 times a year. Or atleast once a year. When and if you change, make sure that it's no weaker than previous one.
