This Week's Top Questions and Answers

Joey Needs More Speed
I just love your newsletters and the great information and freeware.  I used Zappit for the first time (thanks for that), and was hoping it would help speed up my computer.  Lately everything is taking forever to load.  I have no unnecessary programs running at start-up. Only SpySweeper, firewall and antivirus.  Still it's all running like molasses on a cold day.  Do you know (obviously you do) of anything else I can try?  I would appreciate any info you can give me.  Thanks again for the wonderful newsletter

Read our answer to Joey - and learn the many suggestions we have for speeding up your computer!

Reader's Tip Of The Week Submitted by Linda

With the desktop showing (Win key + D), press the Windows key and the first letter of any shortcut name showing. The first alphabetical shortcut with that letter will be highlighted and you can press Enter to go to that site or folder. Or once you're "on" the desktop, you can use the arrow keys to tab all over the desktop. And for whatever reason, you can hold the shift key as you arrow around, highlighting all kinds of shortcuts.

Hmmm...we never knew this one. It's a good one, Linda! Thanks for sharing with all of us.

This Week's Tips and Tricks

Good Cookies - Bad Cookies - Delicious Cookies

Sensitive Keyboard? No Doubt!
Windows XP Home, Media and Professional Editions

Windows lets you control how long you must hold down a key before it repeats, as well as the speed it repeats. To set the sensitivity, open Control Panel and click Keyboard (Win 98/XP Classic view) or in XP Category View click "Printers and Other Hardware" then click "Keyboard". Now click the speed tab and adjust the sliders for Repeat Delay and Repeat Rate and test for your touch. There is a test area right on this screen so you can try different settings. Repeat Delay determines how long you have to hold a key down before it starts repeating. Repeat Rate is how quickly repeated characters appear. There is even a Cursor Blink Rate setting in this window. Click here to view!  Be sure to click Apply when done!


Our Freeware Pick Of The Week

StartupMonitor
One of the biggest causes of system sluggishness is too many programs starting up with Windows. Many programs which have no reason to start up with Windows seem to think you're going to forget about them if they don't add themselves to your Windows Startups. And if you don't watch it, soon you'll be loading everything but Mt. Rushmore on your computer when it boots up. This causes longer boot-up times and slows down your computer. None of us want that. StartupMonitor will help you catch programs in the act of adding themselves to your Windows Startup menu. Catch the little things before they become big things and your computer will run much better much longer!

StartupMonitor is just a little program that does what it says and watches your back for you. It's simple, free, and runs on all versions of Windows. Here's your chance to grab some really nice freeware with a really important purpose. Visit this page to read more about and/or to download our Freeware Program of The Week "StartupMonitor".
