Hi,

can anyone recommend a book or, even better, a reliable online resource that will teach me how to be a good computer administrator, like a pro network administrator but for my home PC.

Like I want a guide on how to keep it running well, clean it from viruses etc. basic stuff maybe but I feel it's a gap in my knowledge.

thanks from

Craig

  2. Just go to my profile and click the link for btexpress.(located under my pic of the dog) They may be able train you so you can work for them.

  3. Well you want your computer to be virus-free, and to be looking "Good". Well, all you need is some applications, you want to be a PRO right?, well lets start off with some Nice firewalls/anti-viruses

    that tool provides you with so much security. It blocks Trojans/Viruses/Malware, and just about anything from accessing your computer

    Prorat remover

    If you downloaded a prorat trojan, good job. you just got your computer hacked! these things can be made undetectable so your Anti-Virus cannot detect the trojan, but with this tool, whether its detected or not. you can delete it in 1 click.

    firstly, play around with the tool and its components, press actions. just play around and get use to it

    Winrar

    http://www.download.com/WinRAR/3000-2250...

    Winrar is basically a tool that opens .rar files. if you've ever gotten some error saying ".rar not found" or something similar to that, its because winrar is not installed on your computer.

    Frostwire:

    http://www.download.com/FrostWire/3000-2...

    You can download music, software, images, etc. And you can chat. Frostwire is much more better then limewire. There is not much trojans installed inside it.

    Ad-Aware 2008:

    Removes all adware from your system

    CCleaner:
