My Spybot Spyware Scan



This is the screen shot of the results from a scan that I ran on 03 February 2009. These results surprise me becaue I have not ran a scan in a while (I normally use AdAware) and I exprected there to be more spyware programs. What also surprises me is that many of these programs seem to be associated with the browser Chrome. This may be because the Spybot was written before Chrome was released, or at least widely in use. It probably recognizes this as a harmful program even though it is completely benign just because of its structure. Another response to this scan was the relative short time that it took: no more than ten minutes. This seems short to completely scan and entire system, so I have to believe that it scans only specific areas.

Check out that link to my Jing video about how to edit the quick command access bar in Word!!!

This crossloop is a great feature where I can show a person (Gerardo in this case) how to do something on his own screen. Because I am actually showing him (and a picture is worth a thousand words) I do not have to type much. I actually change the access bar on his program, and he sees me do this. This can be done with anything on your computer, not just Word.

This can be very helpful in a business because you can troubleshoot with an IT professional without having to go see them in person. This would be really nice for small things. It can allow a workdforce to become more mobile and allow two people to work on the same project in completely different places at once. I
