Keeping the Computer Clean Links
« on: October 23, 2013, 01:28:14 PM »
Found an easy way to do so...thought I'd share my knowledge with others sense I've spent a lot of time on the net funny the web as a side note dose not have as much of an appeal after a decade of thinking it did weird eh? Anyways, here are the programs that have helped keep this puppy running well...

Defraggler is a great program but you don't need it if you know where to go to defrag your computer still it's nice to have and an easier way to defrag then right click right click blah:

CC Cleaner is the bomb, clears eveything from rejrestery junk to cookies and then some, oh even start up nonsense you want gone! I love this program:

Privoxy is a God send to stay anon on the web, every bit helps and my computer connection is actually faster because I use this:

And of course obvious things like AD Block or AD Block Plus

and this new one I've found that I love to bits HTPPS Everywhere:

So with these things in place my computer is running better then it ever has  :yarly:

If you delete system 32 your computer will be much faster.  :green:

Adblock Plus is good.

NoScript is even better. It takes a while to learn how to use it properly, but it's very good against evil scripts.

Speaking of defragging disks, you should never defrag your disk if you have an SSD.

  I actually hadn't heard of most of those.  I am a n00b and it's nice to have information.  :)
