At first I used in Adobe reader and then in foxit reader and now I found ...
PDF Xchange viewer.
Contains all the options you can only dream about (much more than foxit reader) and still works quickly and reliably.
Just try and you won't let go!

Antivirus Recommendation
After long and difficult personal experience with almost every good antivirus software out on the market...
which eventually made me throw away my Antivirus (as you can read in my guide - without antivirus), I realized the most effective antivirus and good for home
users (as for 2009) is Avira Antivir!
And guess what? He is also free!
In many tests he proves to be the best in terms of performance, often better even in comparison to paid products:
- Does the job quietly and efficiently
- Not heavy on your computer (best performance / resource ratio) - After AVG became Bloatware I think it's also the lightest.
- You don't need more!
When I say you don't need more I mean that as far as I used it viruses couldn't access my computer,
But again, I repeat, you can get along without him, because it's all about surfing habits.
But sometimes nice to have a strong safety net behind us. Read More...

PC or console? ... is there an argument at all?!
Lately, many people eulogize the PC as a game console ... I say so what if people are buying more WIIs right now, but who the hell has the power to buy one?
And how much does a WII worth against the flexibility of the PC?
As a person who plays most games on the computer (not a heavy gamer but I know people who are...), I say it to you all now:
Do not throw away your computer and run to buy a console yet!
Even so, between us, all these consoles are just passing whims... Read More...

Without Antivirus
At first I did not understand the meaning of the words "without" and "Antivirus" together, but once I understood the principle of all seems safer somehow ...
To get rid of Antivirus we should first ask: From where we get malicious things?
So the answer is of course communicate with the Internet, ie, a computer clean from viruses and spyware connected to the Internet but did not perform any action such as browsing and downloading - will not be infected with anything!
Places which Viruses Spyware can also enter our computer are:
* Browser (firefox, IE) - cookies, cache.
* Downloads directly.
* File Sharing (emule, Bitorrent).
* Network between computers (very negligible, we won't treat it).
How to harden the browser:
First! Get Firefox!
Now the debate begins as usual which is better ... But no can do Firefox is safer and faster.
Who really opposed to Firefox can do the Explorer but it's his responsibility! I'll say it from now significant security holes will still remain, such as ActiveX.
Return the cookies to the cookie's jar:
Disable cookies. Firefox: Tools> Options> Privacy and then uncheck the cookies from sites.
Note that you now can't connect your users in different sites and forums, so to enable a site follow these steps:
Say that the URL is www.cnet.com then copy only the last part (do not copy the "/" ant the nonsense behind him) and then go to: Tools> Options> Privacy> Exceptions paste the copied address and press "allow".
Bury the cache:
I suggest you be sure to cancel the cache, you can do this through:
Tools> Options> Advanced> Network and change the value to 0 in - "used for X MB disk space for cache.
How not to download viruses directly downloads:
* Do not download from unreliable sites.
* Examine the comments of the download before downloading, if more than one or two are shouting "It's a virus!" - No download!
How not to download viruses and file sharing:
* Only use eMule or Bitorrent, and never, but never use at kaaza!
* Download only links from sites review – don't download through the search, and yet only after reading the responses.
I suggest you scan your computer from online virus scan once in a while to check that everything is working fine and I've had a very long time of fine working...
I strongly recommend also download spyware scanner to scan from time to time....
Now you can happily sit back in your chair and delete antivirus and anti-spyware.
Good luck ;)

Firefox Acceleration Guide
The Great Firefox Guide + Extensions Guide
If you do not already have Firefox then you get better soon from this.
Now after everything is already in place to start.
How to speed up the fox
Firefox is fast ... But we are very greedy and want to squeeze every drop of speed out of it so we will speed it up in several stages, but first you type "about: config" in the address bar and hit enter.
In the next page do the following:
Look for value "Network.http.pipelining" filter and press it twice to change the value to "true".
Look for value "Network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" double-click filter changing the value to 8.
Look for value "Network.http.proxy.pipelining" filter and press it twice to change the value to "true".
Look for value "Network.dns.disableIPv6" filter and press it twice to change the value to "true".
Press the right mouse button anywhere in a blank table and select: New> Boolean. New value called "Content.interrupt.parsing" and set the value "true".
Press the right mouse button anywhere in a blank table and select: New> Integer. New value called "Content.max.tokenizing.time" set the value 2250000.
Press the right mouse button anywhere in a blank table and select: New> Integer. New value called "Content.notify.interval" set the value 750000.
Press the right mouse button anywhere in a blank table and select: New> Boolean. New value called "Content.notify.ontimer" and set the value "true".
Press the right mouse button anywhere in a blank table and select: New> Integer. New value called "Content.notify.backoffcount" set the value 5.
Press the right mouse button anywhere in a blank table and select: New> Integer. New value called "Content.switch.threshold" set the value 750000.
Press the right mouse button anywhere in a blank table and select: New> Integer. New value called "Nglayout.initialpaint.delay" set the value 0.
Press the right mouse button anywhere in a blank table and select: New> Integer. New value called "Ui.submenuDelay" set the value 0.
Press the right mouse button anywhere in a blank table and select: New> Boolean. New value called "Plugin.expose_full_path" and set the value "true".
Now, just restart Firefox and browse fast, very fast ...
Addons user guide
Here I will recommend useful extensions, you can search all add-ons and download on this.
And here comes the extensions:
- Adblock Plus: blocks pop-ups advertisements literally.
- DownloadHelper: allows to download videos from sites like youtube.
- IE Tab: allows the engine to run sites with Internet Explorer in Firefox - for sites that make problems with Firefox (very few).
- NoScript: makes Firefox super protected! A little disturbing add-on at first with the need to set the block configuration, but pays off in terms of protection (for advanced users).
