There is also information about AVG's free Rootkit locator and remover. This tool will only locate and remove, it will not prevent you from getting another Rootkit, there are however programs that will. Check it out here,www.rverscomputerhelp.com/rootkit.html

How to configure an auto reply message in Outlook Express

Click Create Mail as if you were writing a new e-mail.

In the body of the e-mail, type the message you’d like to auto reply with and when finished, go to the File menu and click Save As.

Give your auto reply a file name and make sure you note where it’s being saved. Click Save and close the window.

Now you must create a rule that tells Outlook Express how and when to use your auto reply message. Go to the Tools menu, Message Rules, and click Mail. Click the New button.

In the first box, choose the option that says For all messages. In the second box choose Reply with message. In the third box, click on the link that says Message.

A new menu will appear where you can browse for the auto reply file you just created. Find your file, select it and click Open.

In the fourth box, you’ll want to name your rule Auto Reply and then click OK. Another box will popup confirming the creation of your new rule; click Apply Now to confirm.

The next screen will deal with where you want to place your new rule. Make sure the Inbox is selected and then click Apply Now, and then Close. Finally click OK to close the window.

Google Phonebook removal tool

Some of you might already know that your personal information could be available with a Google search. To find out what is available about you, just type your name in Google and search. If you do not like the outcome, because they are revealing information that you do not want made public, you can go to the Google removal page and request your information be removed. Just click this link, www.google.com/help/pbremoval.html

CD-Rom can not find the CD

This is a pretty common and may have already happened on your computer. Here is something that might fix the problem.

Try uninstalling the CDROM drive in Device Manager, then restarting the machine. XP should find the drive on startup and reassign drivers and resources for it.

To get to Device Manager, right click on My Computer, choose Properties, then choose Hardware, then Device Manager. Click on the "plus" sign (+) next to DVD/CDROM drives, then right click on your CDROM drive and choose "Uninstall". Close Device Manager and restart the machine.
