I'm trying to download something. But I want to use WI-Fi I don't know my neighbours wireless pass code and I'm not sure if my neighbours do have WI-Fi. I'm thinking about using the unsecured WI Fi. Is it a good idea. Will I might get a virus. I would like to know if its safe and if its a good idea.

All unsecured networks may be safe or not safe, because some people dont know how to keep a secured network and some knows but they might hack your smartphone data if they are professionals in hacking.

If you are on unsecured network browse at your own risk one more thing is that you mush have installed a good antivirus in smartphone if you are on unsecured network you will safe. Moreover totally depends on what you are browsing and downloading, say you are downloading any files from mail that's quite natural or you are copying the shared file that might be risk because the file is network may or may not contain virus.

If your device is loaded with antivirus it will safe for you and you can access any type of file or website, it warns you if that is an inappropriate file. One more important thing is you need to update the virus definitions atleat once in a week.

Tip :- dont list your passwords, userid's and credit card numbers and other credentials in you smartphone or in email or in any cloud storage

I ran my anti virus software, Norton, to get rid of a dangerous file I just downloaded. Right now it's stuck on a log for a game I downloaded, but I'm pretty sure it's found the virus thing because it says 105 security risks detected and resolved. So, should I close it or keep it running, because it's been sitting on this screen for a while now and would it be okay, if I just went ahead and hopped on the Internet if I can't close it?

Yes you can close it and it just showing the results of the scan and if you find any important in that and the result will be displayed on the right side of the window. Some viruses or infected files cannot cleaned, whether if you want to delete or move to quarantine you can do that manually.

Some antivirus cannot clean the compressed files because the antivirus has limited features those are may be trial versions or free versions. After scanning they will display the results and showing that which files are infected and types of virus, action taken on them, if you find any compressed file check whether that file is realted to you or not and dont just delete all the compressed files.

I suggest you the full version of antivirus has the deep scanning parameters where it scan the total compressed file and cleans that particular in that file so better have the full version of security softwares. Most of antivirus cleans the trojans aswell if they cant download the trojan remover where it cleans the trojans files and have many better features

The WiFi in my on campus apartment sucks,someone told me I should get a wireless router and connect it via the Ethernet port but I don't know what kind I should get. It would be used for my laptop and phone.

Yes, because if you receive low signal rate you should get Router, better connect the LAN or ISP cable to the router and configure the router to give access to certain devices only.

If you see routers manual that is easy to configure the router and don't forget to assign the security key because if that is an open network anyone can access your Internet until they are in your WiFi range.

but when ever you should know that if your home is spread in large area better research on Internet and buy the better one. Many people don't know which router we should buy they will get the kind of router that are low in price and then it not functions correctly.

To be frank I bought a router firstly which I don't know about it and it cannot not spread area in long, if connected disconnects automatically, connects back again and then I researched on Internet got the best router.

Or does it go back to the file in my computer which it was located before? Please be clear, I'm 13 and don't understand things too well, ha-ha  But please help me! I won't move anything from my quarantine until I know what things do. I am using Avira Antivirus. The virus found on my computer was discovered four days ago( I think), by the name of "ADWARE/Agent.aeph". It's a malware. I don't know too much about these things, so please be...not too big-wordy. 

Better delete the thing from the quarantine because the virus in the file cannot be cleaned, so the antivirus programme will move the virus into quarantine.

Here you need to know some things where if that is a compressed file, some antivirus programmes like free versions cannot the clean the infected files in a computer so it moves the file to quarantine. if you wanna recover that files and want to delete only infected file, disable the antivirus system and then extract the files and enable the antivirus system, it will scan the the files infected file will be quarantined.

I have faced many problems like this because whenever the infection found in compressed file the antivirus deletes the total compressed file and leads loss of the other files. If you go through the premium versions of the antivirus programmes you will not face this problems but when you are going to extract the infected compressed files you need be careful (infection depends on virus) do at your own risk.

There are so many methods to get the drivers of your graphic card. First thing when ever you got your motherboard or graphic driver cd you need to get it back up or another written in another cd or you need to copy the entire folders of the cd to your hard disk drive not in c drive or OS drive.

If your friend or any other nephew purchased the same graphic card you can get the cd from them but please note here model number should be matched.

Another way is from the manufacturers website, go to the appropriate website and go to support then find the model and check your model and select the OS then download the drivers.

If you don't know the model or manufacturer, just enter the motherboard model in Google search download from the manufacturer website because other websites may contain viruses or trojans mainly exe files.

i have an old laptop which I still use and I recently purchased a new laptop. both are connected to the same wireless network. But I am having a problem with the new laptop. When I am using my old laptop, the internet access bar at the bottom corner of the task bar shows full..All bars are filled and the signal strength is high. But when I switch off this laptop and open the new laptop, I have noticed that the signal strength is low and only two bars are full showing a weak network or limited connection. I can browse the internet on both laptops. Even when both laptops are on, the signal strength on the previous or old laptop is very high whereas on the new one it shows very low. My internet connection has high connectivity. I am not able to understand why this is happening . Can anyone tell me what's going wrong with my new laptop?

As your old laptop has good network controller where the new laptop doesn't have and check here the laptops specifications matter after checking you will notice the chipset used by your old and new laptops are different.

In my point of view your old laptop has the good network controller which spread the radio waves longer, which has high frequency whereas the new laptop doesn't have and there is specific difference in 802.11b/g/n, if these models differs the spread area.

One thing is check whether your new laptop got connected any other network which might be open network the signal of that network might be low so check the WiFi settings to which network you are connected to.

Might be your both laptops are not placed in the same area and if the area differ the signal strength also changes due to distance from the router and If you have smartphone place the two laptops and smart phone connect them to your router and you will come to know the exact difference

Hello, I have a hp 2000 notebook laptop and sometimes the laptop will stop working and the screen will turn black with white lines and now it has also started beeping, I have run Kaspersky to look for viruses, I restored the computer to a previous date, I have tried everything I know to do but it still does this, so if anyone knows what the problem is or how to fix it I would really appreciate the help. Thanks

That might be the problem of the Hardware, it seems like the problem is related to RAM or the any other internal connection problem.

Is you do the software reset or restore and scanning the computer does it solves the problem and resinstalling the OS may fix the problem once check with the reinstallation.

After Reinstall if you are facing the same problem, you might need to contact the HP service centre and they will provide the solution for this. In my point of view the problem is related to the hardware, in most cases ram only.

If your laptop is out of warranty, you might take risk to change the RAM and check it, if you are through only do this otherwise contact the repair centre.

and automatically goes back with white lines does it occur at any specific of time after power on the system?
