Giornata per l'igiene delle mani: lavarsi bene riduce del 40% le infezioni Un corretto lavaggio delle mani permette di ridurre di oltre il 40% il rischio di contrarre infezioni: lo spiega il ministro della Salute Beatrice Lorenzin in occasione della Giornata mondiale per l'igiene delle mani. «Non tutti hanno la giusta percezione di quanto questa semplice pratica sia importante per la prevenzione di molte malattie». Spesso si dedica al lavaggio delle mani pochi secondi nella convinzione che ciò sia sufficiente ad averle pulite. Ma non è così. A questi, però, possono aggiungersi virus e batteri che circolano nell'aria o con cui veniamo in contatto in diverse occasioni. Queste le indicazioni dell'Organizzazione mondiale della sanità e dal Centro per il controllo delle malattie di Atlanta. 1) Utilizziamo sempre, preferendolo liquido e usiamo acqua corrente.

Secure Your Wireless Router In The Short Term By Assigning It An Aggressive Name As more devices ship with wireless networking capabilities, it becomes increasingly important to have routers that are capable of handling connections from hardware such as tablets, laptops and mobile phones. The problem is that many routers still in use are perfectly good pieces of hardware, except for one drawback – they don’t support Wireless-N or offer advanced encryption such as WPA. With the threat of drive-by Wi-Fi theft and the risk of secure data being transferred over a non-secure connection, wireless routers without the most current security options can be temporarily shored up with just a bit of imagination. Meanwhile, there are ways in which you can get hold of modern routers for free and connect to them using low-cost USB devices. Secure Your Wireless Router with Its Name According to figures published in October 2011, Windows XP still has a respectable market share as the operating system on around 33% of all computers connected to the web. Conclusion

Fake Alert Singer Vorsicht vor dem Trojaner FakeAlert (auch bekannt als Fake AV oder Rogue Software). Dieser gibt vor, gut zu sein, will den unbedarften PC-Nutzer aber abzocken. So täuscht die Malware etwa gefährliche Infektionen vor, nur um Sie letztlich zum Kauf einer unnötigen und oft infizierten Software zu verleiten. Das McAfee-Tool "Fake Alert Stinger scannt Ihr System nach solchen Trojanern (unter vielen anderen) und kann diese auch gleich entfernen. Das Tool lässt sich schnell und einfach ganz ohne Installation starten. Fazit: Die Freeware "Fake Alert Stinger" bietet zwar keinen allumfassenden Virus-Schutz, doch ist sie durchaus nützlich, wenn der Computer schon infiziert ist.

Nuclide - a unified IDE TCP/IP Overview and History TCP/IP Overview and History(Page 1 of 3) The best place to start looking at TCP/IP is probably the name itself. TCP/IP in fact consists of dozens of different protocols, but only a few are the “main” protocols that define the core operation of the suite. Due to the importance of these two protocols, their abbreviations have come to represent the entire suite: “TCP/IP”. TCP/IP uses its own four-layer architecture that corresponds roughly to the OSI Reference Model and provides a framework for the various protocols that comprise the suite. As I said earlier, the Internet is a primary reason why TCP/IP is what it is today. The TCP/IP protocols were initially developed as part of the research network developed by the United States Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA or ARPA). In 1973, development of a full-fledged system of internetworking protocols for the ARPAnet began. Home - Table Of Contents - Contact Us
