Guest speakers today are:

Suda Pethe, Director of Marketing at Centered Systems, and
Adam Schran from BeAware with ChatWatch -- Secretly watch your computer while you're away.
http://www.ascentive.com/cgi-bin/click/fast/products/BeAware.html

Adam Schran is president and CEO of Ascentive LLC, a Philadelphia-based software company that designs and markets a range of easy to download software products that enhances computer users’ Internet and PC experience. 

In July 1999, Mr. Schran, along with his 11-year-old brother Andrew, developed software applications that could tweak a computer’s settings to maximize performance.  Mr. Schran founded Ascentive to market their first application, WinRocket, online.  From that day on, the company made money without a dime from venture capital financing. 

Today Mr. Schran is CEO and his brother Andrew, now 14-years-old, is the Chief Technology Officer.  Ascentive’s website, www.ascentive.com, is one of the most trafficked Web sites in the world with over 4 million visitors a month and over 10,000 affiliate partners, including some of the world’s largest software companies, such as McAfee.   Since WinRocket, Ascentive now has more products to offer like WebRocket, ActiveTime, ActivePrivacy, and BeAware with ChatWatch, Ascentive’s newest software application that allows parents to monitor their children’s online chats and instant messages.   The application also works for e-mail, Web surfing, and anything else presented on the screen. 

BeAware with ChatWatch records what appears on the family’s PC screen like a VCR, taking snapshots at regular intervals for later review by parents.  The ChatWatch feature stores an easy-to-navigate log of online chats -- thereby creating a digital record of any communications that may be cause for concern to parents.  A password secures the program for access by authorized users only.  This new software is now available on www.ascentive.com.

 

Please join Suda Pethe, Director of Marketing at Centered Systems. He will
talk about Second Copy on the show and answer any of your questions related
to Second Copy.
It is not uncommon to lose an important document or a spreadsheet that you
spent all day working on it. Not everyone likes the backup operations.
Besides backups are only good if you remember to do them. Many backup
programs store your important data and when you need it, you have to perform
a restore operation.

Centered Systems has developed Second Copy 2000, a shareware backup utility
that makes backup operations a breeze! Second Copy 2000 allows you to keep
a "second copy" of all your important files at a different location. Set
it up once and forget about it. Since you always have a second copy, you
don't have to perform any restore operations. Second Copy 2000 will
automatically copy your files at specified intervals with little impact on
system performance.

You can download and try out Second Copy 2000 from:

AlaskaJoe's Tips  

Adding A Camera
 

If you buy a scanner or camera that does not have a USB connection, then Windows Me may not automatically detect the hardware. To add this type of device, go to the Control Panel and select the "Scanners and camera" icon. Select "Add Device." Follow the Wizard's instructions. At one point, you may have to insert the manufacturer's disk to find the hardware's drivers. Continue with the wizard and this should get you up and running.

If your device uses something called a TWAIN interface,
then you will not use this process. Third party software
that comes with the device controls the installation and functioning.
Just follow the instructions that come with the device.

Sort The Start Menu

In Windows Me, Win2K, and WinXP after adding many programs to the Start
menu, it can get overwhelmed with names. Right click in the Start Menu and select "Sort By name" to make your search easier.

Detail View
If you find yourself scrolling left and right, up and down while in Explorer looking at icons, change the View to "Details" and this will make the list scroll only up and down. Also, the icons will be much smaller. This helps save some time.

Music On The Hard Drive

To copy a CD's music to your hard drive, click the CD Audio button while in the Windows Media Player, then unselect those titles you do NOT want. Go to Tools, then Options and make sure that Digital Copying is selected within the CD Audio Tab. Click OK. Click the Copy Music button on the toolbar. The button will change to Stop Copy while copying. The music will then be copied automatically to your "My Music" folder within "My Documents."

If, after pressing the Copy Music, you get an error stating that your CD does not support digital formats, and switches the format to Analogue, your CD player may not support Digital CD playing and the quality might not be as good. The files, however, will still copy. Remember to observe all copyright laws when duplicating music.
