Here is a quick guide to organising your bookmarks with Firefox. If you don’t have it, I highly recommend you get it. Firefox can be downloaded from here. If your anything like me, when you see a site you like, you bookmark it, the trouble is eventually you end up with hundreds of sites in one huge list, which isn’t very easy to navigate.

Step 1.

Once you have Firefox open right click the bar where you see the “most viewed” tab, and select “New Folder” from the menu which appears.

Step 2.

In the next window that opens up, you can choose the name of the folder. I chose to name mine in kind of categories such as “news” and “weather”, you can also add a wee description if you like too.

Step 3.

And thats it, you should now have a folder appearing in that bar, and you can simply drag the URLs you want to that folder, then to access it, just click the folder and you will see a drop down list of the sites contained in the folder. Now how organised is that!?

It has come to my attention over the past two days that there are hundreds of people unknowingly spreading viruses through the social networking site “bebo” .

The mails are sent from a trojan(i think) using the on-site mail service.

If you should recieve one of these mails, DO NOT CLICK THE LINK in the message. If you have, you must run an anti virus checker, then change your bebo password as soon as possible to avoid spreading the virus further.

The messages I’m talking about look like:

Although you may get them with different wording and different links, but they are all in the same format, just delete the message!

1. Run an anti-virus, if you dont have one try AVG;
2. Change your bebo password once the viruses are gone;
3. Install a firewall to avoid future attacks.

If your think you have contracted a computer virus, but your antivirus scanner still shows clean scans, it is possible for you to be infected! Not all anti-virus scanners can detect every virus. But I have found a site which should give you a better idea of your files if you think they may be infected.

The Site in question is VirusTotal.com, when you upload a file to the site, it will use 36 antivirus programs to scan your file to see if its infected and it will show you individual results for each virus program which was used. Here is a screen shot of just a few of the virus scanners which the site used:

Whats more, the virus libraries are updated as soon as new ones are issued by the software companies. There is however no 100% sure fire way of knowing if a file is really clean or not, but 36 anti virus programs in 1, has got to be better than just using your own virus scanner alone.

Bought from Ebay for £90 to replace my old nokia 7310i which i have had for many many years!

Its a vast improvement on my old phone. Lots of fancy features and a great 3Mp camera. One handy tip is to select GSM only from the prefered networks,this extends the battery life when you don’t need 3G
