important to use extreme caution when choosing to removing anything
using HijackThis.

PC Tune-up Utility
Ashampoo WinOptimizer 2010, available for free from V3 Software Store (otherwise paid). Do note that you will need to register for the serial. Just about everything from the previous iterations of WinOptimizer continue here, only better and more faster. WinOptimizer has a very sleek interface, with one-click cleaning for disk, privacy and registry cleaning tasks. It also has a nice option of a full scan, which gives recommendations for disabling unnecessary services, tweaking system settings, as well as the one-click cleaning features. I also like "Did you know?" tips, some of which I found quite useful. However, WinOptimizer is the only product that requires registration. Also, no further updates are provided. However, this is the best choice if you want something simple that can clean your computer with a few clicks, with no ads.
WinOptimizer offers a very basic disk and privacy cleaner; in particular, it does not clean the history of most programs. The disk defragmenter is very fast, but seems to be a bit too quick to offer good file placement. The file erasing utility is very comprehensive, with wiping options up to Gutmann and the ability to rename the files and folders before it is erased. The registry cleaner also seems very basic, detecting very little items. (Of course, registry cleaning is not simply a case of the more the better, but the result was far less than even some very conservative registry cleaners). It also has a tweaking utility with over 450 tweaks, and it's the best I've seen out of these products. WinOptimizer also has a detailed process manager, a startup manager, a system information utility, a benchmarking utility and various other tools.

The first beta version of Internet Explorer 9
Internet Explorer 9 is the new edition
of Microsoft's hugely popular web browser. Building on the success of
previous editions of IE with new features and a new look, Microsoft has
high hopes for Internet Explorer 9.
The first thing you'll notice about Internet Explorer 9 is an overhauled interface. Making the most of the transparent graphical style available in Windows 7 and newer editions of Windows Vista, IE 9 looks sleek, smart and simpler than ever before. Like in Google Chrome, the Address bar and Search box have been merged to create a simpler, more seamless user experience.
Among the new features included in Internet Explorer 9 are better integration with the Windows operating system and a seriously beefed-up security system. IE 9 also lets you 'pin' websites to the Superbar and allows you to bookmark your favorite websites as 'applications' in your OS. The new Performance Advisor add-on identifies add-ons that are slowing Internet Explorer down (a feature badly needed in Mozilla Firefox).
Internet Explorer 9 also offers improved speed and performance, as well as better compliance with web standards and new technologies. IE 9 features decent support for HTML 5 (the new generation of media-rich websites use this language), and now finishes the Acid 3 test with a near-perfect 95/100. New features like hang recovery and InPrivate Filtering provide Internet Explorer a stabler and more secure web experience than most other browsers.
In all, the latest version of Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 is faster and prettier than its predecessors - and really throws down the gauntlet to its competitors. Watch out: the browser wars just got exciting again.

The SMS is send before the reminder and does not need any confirmation, hence it will also work on unattended systems.
Here are some key features of "SMS-it":
Sending through the Internet:
· SMS-it! can send messages through the Clickatell.com gateway. Clickatell allows you to set up an account and buy blocks of SMS. You can then send the messages either through their web site or through our SMS-it!. You can send text, pictures and ringtones.
Sending through the mobile phone:
· When you send the message through your mobile phone (attached to the computer), SMS-it! will use the parameters (Sender ID, SMS center, etc) of your phone to send the message. Sending will work the same as when sending messages from your phone, except that you type the message on your computer.
· Not all phone manufactures implement however a link to the
· computer (IR port or serial cable link). You can send text, pictures and ringtones. Having the mobile phone connected to the computer has the
· additional advantage that you can transfer data from your phone to the computer and back. IE you can synchronize your phone book and archive received SMS on your computer.
Sending through the modem:
· Sending the message through a modem will connect to a SMSC (SMS center) that relays your message to its destination. There are several mobile phone providers that offer this modem dial-up. The connection is to a local server (not to the internet), hence you need to chose a SMSC that is within your region.
· Alternatively you may select to dial a server abroad, but the
· communication cost will be expensive. There are two different protocols supported by the SMSC, either XIO/TAP or UCP. XIO/TAP is an older protocol initially designed for pager messages. SMSCs that support this protocol will not be able to process pictures or ringtones. They can only process text messages and can not send the SenderID. SMSCs that support the UCP protocol can send text, pictures and ringtones and support sending of the SenderID.

Linux-VServer
Linux-VServer provides virtualization for GNU/Linux systems. This is accomplished by kernel level isolation. It allows to run multiple virtual units at once. Those units are sufficiently isolated to guarantee the required security, but utilize available resources efficiently, as they run on the same kernel.
This site contains information relating to the use and development of virtual servers based on Linux-VServer. This particular virtual server model is implemented through a combination of "security contexts", segmented routing, chroot, extended quotas and some other standard tools.

KVM (Kernel Based Virtual Machine)
KVM (for Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution for Linux on x86 hardware containing virtualization extensions (Intel VT or AMD-V). It consists of a loadable kernel module, kvm.ko, that provides the core virtualization infrastructure and a processor specific module, kvm-intel.ko or kvm-amd.ko. KVM also requires a modified QEMU although work is underway to get the required changes upstream.
Using KVM, one can run multiple virtual machines running unmodified Linux or Windows images. Each virtual machine has private virtualized hardware: a network card, disk, graphics adapter, etc.
The kernel component of KVM is included in mainline Linux, as of 2.6.20.
KVM is open source software.

Linux Security Cookbook
Computer security is an ongoing process, a relentless contest between system administrators and intruders. A good administrator needs to stay one step ahead of any adversaries, which often involves a continuing process of education. If you're grounded in the basics of security, however, you won't necessarily want a complete treatise on the subject each time you pick up a book. Sometimes you want to get straight to the point.
That's exactly what the new Linux Security Cookbook does. Rather than provide a total security solution for Linux computers, the authors present a series of easy-to-follow recipes--short, focused pieces of code that administrators can use to improve security and perform common tasks securely.

Base is the equivalent to the Access software package which is included in the Professional version of Microsoft Office. Base provides tools for everyday database work with a simple but powerful front end. It can credit and edit forms, reports, queries, tables, views, and relations. It can also analyse and edit relationships from a diagram view.
Features include:
- HSQLDB incorporated as the default relational database engine
- Can also use dBASE, Microsoft Access, MySQL, Oracle, or any ODBC- or JDBC- compliant database.
- 18 database form controls, 10 form templates
Math
Math is OOo's formula or equation editor. You can use it to create complex equations that include symbols or characters not available in standard font sets. While it is most commonly used to create formulas in other documents, such as Writer and Impress files, Math can also work as a stand-alone tool. You can save formulas in the standard Mathematical Markup Language (MathML) format for inclusion in webpages and other documents not created by OOo.
OpenOffice.org also features in our 'Linux Equivalents to Windows Software' section. The category selector below allows you to filter the different types of software included in that separate article.
You can Download it from OpenOffice.org official site http://download.openoffice.org/
