Adding Password on Shared Folder Document

For those of us who frequently interact with computer networks, may be often heard and used the names sharing folders in Windows. If using Windows XP to share folders or files, by default operating system (OS) will not provide a password when you access it via another computer. This becomes a little dangerous when you want to share important documents that actually only be known by some person of interest only.
To overcome these problems, Windows has provided operating system (OS) itself which gives flexibility to the administrator to manage the network, including providing security on any folder in windows server that is shared. However, it is also not the best solution if only for the purposes of a temporary or immediate need.

To provide a password in Windows XP folder sharing, follow these steps:

1.     Login as Administrator Windows XP
2.     Click Start -> Control Panel -> User Accounts
3.     Click the Guest account and make sure the Guest user becomes active (On)
4.     Close the User Accounts window
5.     Open Command Prompt by clicking Start -> Run, type CMD and then press the Enter key
6.     At the Command Prompt, type net user guest password and press the Enter key
7.     Go back and give the user account password on the user guest
8.     Enter the password that you want and then restart the computer
9.     Once finished restart the computer, try sharing a folder on the computer before
10.     Open the folder that was shared by another computer. If no errors, then when we access it from another computer, the system will prompt to enter a password to access the folder

It's finished, we are sharing a folder that is protected with a password. Users who do not know the password we set earlier will not be able to read files or folders that you have previously sharing.

Meanwhile Facebook cookies will very easily be taken from the air (via a Wi-Fi signal the Internet). Wi-Fi protected WEP encryption that can easily be broken in 10 minutes. Nowadays everyone can just as easily create hotspots and provide free-access to you. But you should be aware of is the security level access is offered, because with access Facebook on a network connection that is not protected, the same as giving your private data free of charge.

9. Think about security issues before you do click on the 'Wall'. Post on Wall is one way of spreading Koobface or other malware, so you must be careful to access it.

10. The latter is the way how we are raising awareness of the dangers of Facebook's security is on the people around us. Due to the increasing awareness of people around us will also support our security.

What You Should Consider Before Buying A Product online

Yesterday I got an email that it reads like this "how to know that the products it offers quality and isn't fraud?". "How do I know that after the transfer of money, I will certainly obtain the products?". Confusion like this you may experience when want to buy a product online, or when it intends to become a reseller of the product.
It is not easy to answer this question, but OK I'll try to compare with my experience as a computer Technician Guide ebook seller for approximately 7 months.
As a buyer, before buying a product, here's all you have to make sure:

Who is behind these products? Never buy products from people you do not know. Sellers of products must be in accordance with their fields. For example, because I have a blog agussale.com about computers and the Internet, then it is reasonable if I sell ebooks Guide computer technician. What word other people about these products? Is there a testimony concerning such products are believed to be bias? For example I sell ebooks Guide computer technician, then I would attach a "TESTIMONIALS" on the website www.dpcworld.comApakah this product is of interest to many people? Whether the product has been many purchasers? As an example since I sell ebooks Guide computer technician in November 2010, the number of total users is the number of people with the current Registrar who has yet to conduct transactions is 142 people. Means closing the prospect is still quite a lot.If the price of its products in accordance with the quality of the product? Please compare the contents of the book to your needs, money is not your main problem.Is this product bergaransi? What kind of warranty? All you need is an unconditional guarantee. If a guarantee is conditional, that is the sign of a good deal less.Is the website accessible? If we can reach people directly? For example, I only had one no. 081355121794 and no. HP HP should you use to contact me anytime. That's how I apply in my ebook sales.What are the advantages of this product compared to other products? Do not buy the product before comparing it with similar products from other sources. Please compare both in terms of its content, price and warranty.

So this brief explanation, hopefully help you in choosing and buying products online.

Note: for email senders, answers on purpose I write here that fair-to-read all the articles and not as a promotional language.
