He showed pictures of recent ads that clearly target young children to install unwanted software, even though the software claims you must be 18 years old. Is there a way for the Federal Trade Commission to stop this kind of child and computer endangerment? Dave thinks so.<br \/>\n<a href=\"?p=75\">Read more&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"A2\">Fragmentation Dropping as Drives Get Bigger<\/h3>\n<p>Drive fragmentation is one of the biggest performance killers any PC can experience. That&#8217;s bad news, but the good news is that the average PC has a more free space on its drive than it has in the past. As a result, fragmentation is going down. Still, the best way to keep your drive running at its fastest is to clean up junk files and defragment your drive at least once a week. If the built-in Windows defragger doesn&#8217;t do the job, consider using Diskeeper.<br \/>\n<a href=\"?p=171\">Read more&#8230;<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/pcpitstop.com\/store\/diskmd.asp\">Free Disk Scan<\/a><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"A3\">Tell Us What You Like&#8211;and Win $50!<\/h3>\n<p>Sony recently announced that they would stop distributing current We know that email inboxes can get pretty crowded nowadays, so we want to make sure that you look forward to getting our newsletter.

As a result your drive may experience slower performance and greater fragmentation. To change the disk space used by System Restore, click Start, Control Panel, System and go to the System Restore tab. Select the C drive and click Settings. Move the slider until you are using less than about 1500MB, but do not set the value for less than 400MB. For most systems that will offer at least a week&#8217;s worth of restore points. Repeat for other non-removable hard drives you may have.<\/p>\n<h3>About PC Pitstop<\/h3>\n<p>PC Pitstop, LLC (https:\/\/www.pcpitstop.com) was formed in February 2000, and offers users a unique way to make sure their PCs are running fast, stable and secure&#8211;all through a free, Web-based interface.<\/p>\n<h3>Don&#8217;t Want This Newsletter?<\/h3>\n<p>PC Pitstop&#8217;s monthly newsletter is an optional feature of your account.
