  1. Two of them are actually Office updates, Lina. MS still releases the malicious software removal tool every month.
  2. Very informative article. Thanks, Pete. So far I am not using my Windows 10 machine for anything important such as online banking or purchases.
  3. Since the release of Windows 10 back on 29 July there have been five cumulative updates issued for the new operating system to remedy bugs and improve system performance. The last part of the above sentence, bug fixes and performance improvements, is also the level of detail Microsoft has provided along with these updates. That lack of detail has also been a point of contention with IT Pros and enthusiasts alike. In Microsoft’s eyes these cumulative updates are routine in nature and they have no plans to expand those details on the consumer side. However, as Rod learned a couple weeks ago while visiting Microsoft, there is a chance that those business and Enterprise customers who will use Windows Update for Business may have access to more in-depth information about the updates. Any significant updates to Windows 10, such as Threshold 2 and Redstone, will have details publicized about those updates because they are considered major updates to the operating system and introduce significant new features. I expect the vast majority of those details will come through official Microsoft blogs and updates from the Windows team. In the interim, we wanted to know how our readers felt about this lack of detail from Microsoft on these updates so over the last couple of weeks we conducted polls on both Windows IT Pro and SuperSite for Windows asking for your opinion. By a huge majority, all of our readers across both sites want more when it comes to details about these updates. Let’s take a look at the combined numbers for the polls: Total Combined Votes: 1,262 1, 137 (90%) voters want more details from Microsoft while 125 (10%) are OK with the amount of information being provided. The split on the IT Pro side of the poll is 94% in favor of more details and on the enthusiast side it is 85% asking for more info. Unfortunately, according to Microsoft’s plans, a large number of geeks are not going to be happy with the level of detail they will receive around the routine updates for Windows 10. Like I have said before, this is the future of Windows as a Service where the routine updates become part of the everyday existence of consumers running Windows. Regular and routine just like the Windows Defender signature updates we receive nearly every day on our systems. What do you think about Microsoft’s split plans to share more detailed information about Windows 10 related updates? Source : winsupersite
  4. Awesome! Let me know how you like it. I still may order one for myself. I've always liked the idea of the backlit keys. The larger letters are great too.
  5. Okay, sounds good. Let me know what you want to do. It's not a problem for me to order it and have it send directly to you.
  6. I can order it and have it sent to your house, Lina. (If you'd like.) I have Amazon Prime.
  7. I understood it to mean that it is eligible for Prime. I don't think that means a special price but maybe I'm wrong? Edit to add, yup, I'm wrong.
  8. This is the one, Lina. It's $24.88. http://www.amazon.com/Azio-Keyboard-Interchangeable-Backlight-KB506/dp/B00I0S6SK0/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1441640562&sr=8-2&keywords=Azio+Large+Print+Tri-Color+Backlit+Wired+Keyboard
  9. That could very well be. Eset is usually on the ball with things like this....
  10. They make smaller size mice for laptops, Lina. I find it difficult to use the smaller ones but that's just me....
  11. I just checked my setup and I need the Comcast modem for my digital phone line as well. There may not be any way to get around that.
  12. I have three Logitech and one Microsoft mouse that I use. They are all wireless, unfortunately. I have to say though, I prefer the Logitech over the Microsoft any day. I don't think you can go wrong with Logitech, just about any model as long as it's a full size mouse, Lina.
  13. I don't actually, Peterr but someone else here may have an idea for you.
  14. I use a Comcast XFinity modem and it is connected to my router, a Linksys EA9200. I also have connected to my router a Linksys switch. This allows me to have more than four Ethernet connected computers.
  15. Beautiful! Thanks for sharing, Rachel.:thumbsup:
  16. I like Windows 10 although I am not using it as my primary operating system. I use it enough to become familiar with the OS. I use a Windows 7 computer for my banking and online shopping and I alternate using a dual boot computer with Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 for every day use.
