As the computer repair center for Oakland, Wayne and Macomb Counties, Concise maintains a client list that resembles the “who’s who” in the Michigan small business community. They are good, and they are growing out of their digs in Bloomfield Hills.
One of the reasons that Concise is so well respected in their industry is because they take the time to explain and teach at the same time. Let’s face it, the information highway has its own language today. Computer techies have always had a vernacular that tended to exclude the rest of the non-techie world. Making things worse for us non-techies today, is the next layer of computer- speak: abbreviations of all the words that we had no clue about from the beginning.
The staff at Concise will now lead the pc tech support field by offering a series of articles with those definitions of words from the computer tech support world. This is the first offering in what Concise hopes will be a long series of definitions from the computer tech speaker.
HONEYPOT
Wikipedia defines a HONEYPOT in computer speak, as a trap set to detect, deflect, or in some manner counteract unauthorized attempts to obtain use of information systems.
A HONEYPOT consists of a computer, data, or a network site that appears to be part of a network. But, the Honeypot is actually an isolated and unprotected deadend which appears to a hacker as valuable information.
Simply put, a HONEYPOT is a seductive decoy. It lures the attacker into a harmless area of your system where it could be isolated, detected, and hopefully discovered by cyber police.
Another use of the Honeypot is to isolate spam. Spammers abuse vulnerable resources such as open mail relays. Some system administrators have created honeypot programs that masquerade as these decoy resources to discover spammer activity. There are several capabilities that honeypots provide to the administrators and the existence of such seductive bait systems makes abuse more difficult or risky for the spammer. Honeypots can be a powerful countermeasure to abuse from those who rely on very high volume abuse (e.g., spammers). These honeypots can reveal the apparent IP address of the abuse and provide bulk spam capture (which enables operators to determine spammer’s URLs and response mechanisms).
HONEYNETS
Two or more honeypots on a network form a HONEYNET. Typically, a HONEYNET is used for monitoring a larger and/or more diverse network in which one honeypot may not be sufficient. Honeynets and honeypots are usually implemented as parts of a larger computer trouble shooting system. A HONEYFARM is a centralized collection of honeypots and analysis tools.
The next visit from a Concise Computer Consulting technician should go smoother. And, when the topic turns to setting up a Honeyfarm for your small business’s computer system, you will immediately understand that you are not about to purchase a bunch of bee hives.

how do u put the image back 2 normal….
this is stupid lol .. evryone knows that ! w’dafuck
Reboot the router…
for windows:
if you've already deleted them they might still be in the recycle bin. empty your recycle bin. or you can go to Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Cleanup to clear temporary files and compress old files. after disk cleanup choose Disk Defragment to further clean your system. this will take a while so close any running programs.
Can do what?
Put an image as a BG?
Of fuckin course they can, thats the whole gag. Bloody hell, lighten up.
It’s a practical joke.
DO NOT GET ALIENWARE!!!
To pricey, building is definently better. If you want a desktop instead of a laptop then -
AMD or Intel processor – Dual core might be fine since its gaming and school, but go with quad core processor if you have the money.
Motherboard – Make sure it matches the brand of the processor you bought, and make sure it has PCI-Express 2.0 x16 in at least one slot.
Memory – DDR2 or DDR3, just make sure it fits. 4 gig+
Hard drive – Bigger the better, but it can get expensive. 1 Terabyte if you need a ton of stuff stored, but 500 gigs should do.
Video Card – Mainly better for the gaming, ATI or Nvidia (I find both are good so it doesnt really matter which brand you pick). Just make sure the card is PCI-Express 2.0 x16. Most are now though.
Power/Cooling – Not very good on these since my purchases normally come with power and a fan/heatsink.
Optical drive – Just your DVD Rom/CD Rom
OS – Vista most likely

all you people bagging this are sad. if people were to click start then they wouldn’t necessarily have an icon, so if it were for a document they were trying to access on xp then they would gte frustrated, its a little bit of light hearted humor, lighten up
The industry "standard" answer on that question is 3 years.
Technology seems to hit a new high in about that time frame.
However, from a practical standpoint, that could get expensive; you are buying the "latest" technology.
Five years is probably more the norm and besides if you wait a bit, all of the beta bugs and glitches will be worked out and all of the updates will be in one handy "service package."
Actually, if your computer is 10 years old, still working well, and your computing needs have not expanded, I wouldn't upgrade at all.
If you want to use the very latest software, or play the latest games, then, of course, your needs have expanded and you'll need to upgrade.
Hope this helps…..JT
PS—I would re-post this question in Entertainment and Music, sub category Polls and Surveys.
I think you'll get more responses there than here. Don't ask me why Yahoo in all their wisdom; HID Polls and Surveys under the Entertainment and Music category…go figure.
Good start on the New Year!
Lame!!!! every little child can to it!
Your cell phone has an email address. It varies by carrier (calling their customer support would be a good idea). You can email the pictures from your computer to your cell phone's email address and you will receive the picture as a picture message on your cell phone. You will want to make sure that you compress the picture size so that your phone can get it. You will be charged for an incoming picture message (assuming you don't have a message plan).
