Site to GET sample viruses to check how good A/V is
Hi folks
Are there any decent testbeds of sites / databases et where one can actually download some viruses etc so one can really test a machine for resiliency.
You'd have to sandbox / firewall / isolate the deliberately infected computer but there must be some sites where you can download this stuff or at least a sample of it. I don't believe half the stuff I read in the so called...

Photos file infected with Unity ads. Help!
Have just started using 'photos' on new computer. There are bunches of those little unity ad videos in every monthly folder. Not sure how to eliminate them. I took my samsung galaxy 3 tablet off line, as that's the only place I've seen them. Afraid they got into my desktop from there.
Can't seem to find anything about cleaning this up on a general net search.
Thanks Folks, Kathy in Maine

Extreme slow boot time since eSATA HDD addition
Hi all,
My system uses a SSD drive and Fast Boot option in Windows (Hibernate = YES).
Also, my BIOS is set to Fast Boot option.
1. Usually, from cold boot it will log in within 8 seconds on average.
2. For a PC restart, it takes about 15~20 seconds to login. Pretty manageable.

Ms confirms - eventually Office to be subscription only
Hi there
Ms will now only provide Office /365 when both Office 2019 and Office 2016 expire in 2025. OK that's a long time away -- who knows if Ms won't have been swallowed up by Amazon, Alibaba, Google or whatever by then. !!
They readily admit they can make more money from recurring payments (i.e subscriptions) than selling a product. If "Leasing" was a bad business model (for businesses...

I use MP3Tag for all mp3's and I have tried to find discrepancies i.e.: misspelling, punctuation, spaces anything that might cause a problem but I...

SSD is in GPT, HDD is in MBR format. Is that OK?
Hello,
Recently I've purchased a Kingston 240GB SSD. I initialized the SSD in GPT, and installed Windows 10. But, when I looked my 2TB HDD partitions, they are in MBR format. Will there have any stability issues when the SSD is in GPT and HDD in MBR? Do I need to change my HDD to GPT for system stability?
Thank You,
