Help,

My
Computer Can't Play my Recorded Session:
You're
recording may have been created as "Computer Only" due
to the length of the session. These discs will play ONLY in a Windows
Computer or MacIntosh with the correct converter. They will not
play in a boom box or other portible player. Mac users can download
the converter right here:
Help
for Mac Users with Recorded Sessions
If you're using a MacIntosh computer with OS X or better, you can
download this handy converter tool in order to listen to the digital
recordings I send you. My recorder is all Windows format, so playing
it back on a MAc is tough to do. This converter was created JUST
for you! It's free and it really works.

Check
How Strong your Password Is
Since 2010, I have received hundreds of hacker links from clients'
email. The best way to prevent being hacked and losing your bank
account is to have a strong password. Microsoft has developed an
AMAZING way to check and see if your passwords are strong enough.
Make sure you never give your passwords to ANYONE for ANY REASON!
Remember that your bank, Gmail or Hotmail will NEVER ask for your
password under ANY circumstance!!!
TimeTicker
Can't be a good astrologer if you don't know what time it is. Here's
a good site that that connects to the atomic clock out in Colorado.
NOAA
Weather Radar
Until you have survived Mother Nature's rath, you just don't know
how valuable having your own personal radar site is.
Help,
My PC Can't Read the Map You Sent!!
In
Windows 7,
Make
sure you have permissions to set to open files sent
to you via email. Security setting inside many anti-virus programs
can prevent you from opening files. You also need to have Administrative
privledges in Win7 to change settings and have had to answer 'Continue'
to open the file.
In
Windows Vista,
Make
sure you have permissions to set to open files sent
to you via email. Security setting inside Vista are usually set
conservatively. You need to have Administrative privledges to change
settings inside Vista and have had to answer the permission question
(Is This Safe to Open?) before viewing a file sent to you.
Make
sure you have Service Pack 2 installed. Don't know? Hold
down your Windows Key on the keyboard and press your Pause/BreaK
Key. If you have a laptop without a Pause/Break key, just right
click on Computer and select Properties.
Are
you experiencing other video issues or are still having
trouble? Try
Microsoft's Support Page. It's been 'kicked up a notch' to be
far more helpful than with previous operating systems.
In
Windows XP,
Windows
XP is no longer a secure Operating System. Virus technology
has advanced far beyond the ability of XP to protect itself. A majority
of those people who have had their email hacked are still running
Windows XP. Yes, I loved that OS too in its day, but it's actually
beyond time to upgrade. If you can't read a map I send you from
Vista or Win7, then you have major failures going on with your computer
and will need professional assistance.

Norton
Anti-Virus 2012
If
I'm going to "walk my talk", I'm only installing the absolute
best program to stop hackers and viruses:
http://us.norton.com/security_response/protection.jsp
I
check with PC World magazine annually to see who has the best Anti-Virus.
Kaspersky is also in the top 2 each year and is hihgly recommended.
Please, please, please never trust a "free" anti-virus
program - you'll get what you pay for. Even Microsoft's anti-virus
they include with Windows 7 doesn't rank very high. Remember, it
only takes one trojan horse to get in a ruin your password security.
I
have a file to add or I have a question....(by Email)
