Cybercrime is rapidly spreading on Facebook as fraudsters prey on users who think the world's top social networking site is a safe haven on the Internet. Lisa Severens, a clinical trials manager from Worcester, Massachusetts, learned the hard way. A virus took control of her laptop and started sending pornographic photos to colleagues. "I was mortified about having to deal with it at...

Re-installing Windows is actually an easy process. Although it can take time to get Windows back on your system, once it is installed you’re ready to go. However, once you’ve installed Windows, most of the installed drivers are the files that shipped with the original operating system.
