		<description><![CDATA[As people become more comfortable with going online for work, entertainment, and to socialize, the dangers have multiplied. Viruses abound, largely because many users of the Internet are either unaware of the dangers or they underestimate them. Whole industries have sprung up based on the propensity of many surfers to infect their computers with viruses. Virus removal tools and fixes are common, but if users exercise a few basic precautions, they will usually be unnecessary. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I always have multiple programs, documents, and various other windows opened at one time. I like to fully utilize my computer&#8217;s multi-tasking ability and my mouse is constantly on the move. A feature of the Windows 7 Taskbar is rather annoying to me, really since the beginning. That is the popup thumbnail as your mouse hovers (even for a moment) over that program or window. Some may find it helpful, but I find it useless [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The WordPress Dashboard is the first thing you see when you login. The &#8220;Right Now&#8221; box has important information like the total number of posts tags, comments, etc. but one thing is missing: users. I usually don&#8217;t have a need to check the Users list, so when a number of SPAM accounts registered, I didn&#8217;t even realize it. It got me thinking about writing a script to display the total number of registered users right [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The year 2011 is just about over and that time almost perfectly matches a year since I started Computer Tech Tips. I&#8217;ve had a lot of fun writing helpful tips, providing assistance with technical queries, and also improving my own computer and web development skills. While I always look for ways to improve, I&#8217;m still proud of what was accomplished this first year. Here is this year in review with the ten most popular articles. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The new version of Avira AntiVir Personal is out with some important changes. First is the name itself: Avira Free Antivirus 2012. This name style is more common among anti-malware clients because it better distinguishes between free/paid programs and also gives the major software version right in the name. The second is what the Avira team is calling an ultra-modern user interface. &#8220;Less is more&#8221; is their philosophy, so designing an interface that makes it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In an article I wrote last April concerning the Firefox 4 add-on compatibility checker, I explained how to quickly disable said tool in order to allow older add-ons to run. That tutorial worked great for Firefox versions 4-7, but it has to be updated for Firefox 8. In this tutorial, I&#8217;ll walk through removing the old configuration and adding the new. 1.) Open up Firefox’s Configuration page by typing about:config in the address bar. Read [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Programs like Windows Media Player and Task Manager include an option to always display them on top of an active window. This means you can work inside an active window or program but also see the inactive &#8220;Always on top&#8221; program. I was recently in need of such a tool when I wanted to display an Excel spreadsheet atop my full-screen virtual operating system. In my search, I came across a free tool called Keep [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A short time ago, Yahoo introduced a new feature to the comment section of their articles allowing readers to view and click the commentator&#8217;s location in order to filter all comments by that location. Why they felt this was a good feature, I don&#8217;t know. I do find it annoying, however, that a popup appears automatically, thereby hiding portions of comments, in order to introduce this new feature. I guess they believe not enough people [...]]]></description>

It also organizes items in the list alphabetically starting with important Windows shortcuts like Windows Update, followed by your many program shortcut folders, and ends with program shortcuts that aren&#8217;t organized into specific folders. The Start Menu in Windows 7 is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you wanted to select a number of files or folders from within Windows Explorer, you can hold the Shift key and select them all. This makes mass moving or deleting easy. If you&#8217;re interested in another way to mass select files and folders in Windows 7, you may consider enabling check-boxes while viewing folders. It could make selecting multiple files easier for you. To enable this option, open up Folder Options. This window can [...]]]></description>
