Do you hate the Windows 8 / 10 start menu?

Fortunately, thanks to some great programmers, you don't have to live with it.  With a free program, Class shell you can go back to the start button and menus just like you had in Windows 7.  Just go to  http://www.classicshell.net/ and install this tool.  If you like it please consider donating something to them.  You will notice a "donate now" button on their site.

Safer Surfing

Antivirus programs are good and no-one should be without them but now there is a program that can help you avoid going to sites that can cause you problems.  WOT (Web Of Trust) does just that.  By using croudsourcing it gathers opinions from thousands of people on the safety of sites and informs you in a couple of ways.  When you search a topic many of the results will have a green dot indicating that it is a known good site.  If you try to go to a site that WOT doesn't trust you will get a large warning popup that will still allow you to go to the site if you choose.

You will definitely want to look at the warnings, and think twice about going to that site.  Warning that SOME of the messages may be for legitimate sites but it is worth being careful.

Make 10 look and act like 7

2/9/2016

COMING SOON!  Lots of people have been unhappy with the new screens in both Windows 8 and 10.  Part of the upgrade to Windows 10 was supposed to make it better but many people think it is worse.  In an unusual move (on their part) Microsoft is working on a program you can install to make your Windows 10 computer look, and act, exactly like Windows 7.  

Right now it is in testing but it should be out soon.  Early reports say that it is working perfectly.  If you are interested just drop me a note and I will contact you when it is available.
