Q. My boss uses the computer I work with to look for girls on the Internet during off hours. Sometimes he goes to these nasty websites and leaves the computer all messed up with pop ups and viruses. He then blames me for downloading music which I don't do. He then makes a mess on my desk with his pipe. I feel he has no respect for me because he leaves all the print outs on my desk and all over the office. I use the internet which I'm not allowed to really. It's only for work. but common everyone does it. When boss is not in you check your email or check your bank and credit card accounts or pay bills. But that's all I do. I hate it when he goes to those nasty websites especially when the computer gets corrupted. Then he ask me to fix it. I say I can't so he has to pay someone more than $300 to do it, then he feels it in his pocket and hopefully he'll stop. But he doesn't. Can you tell me how to make him stop. Put a password or something?
A. Depending on your organization size and structure this shouldn't be a possibility. If you work in a company which has an IT department then see if the IT guys won't install some kind of software that will prevent damage to the computer. Microsoft Shared Computer Toolkit does a good job and is free. But it isn't for the timid.
But the feeling I am getting from your question is that this is a small company privately owned by your boss. In that case. The only thing you can do is possibly put a password on your computer and make sure you have your antivirus up to date and a good set of backups of your data if necessary.
Personally I feel that this guy is fairly inconsiderate for a boss and that you should be looking for other employment. But I understand that isn't always an option either.
A password would keep him from getting access to the comptuer at all but if he is the owner... well that won't last and will just ensense him against you.
In the end, unless there are systems in place to prevent this sort of thing at your office then you are stuck with the problem. But if you belong to a larger office with different departments then you should have passwords and policies about these types of things.

What problems do I face upgrading to Windows 7 from Vista XP?
Q. what conflicts can I expect with software, hardware, etc? just want to prepare myself because I know this isn't going to be a piece of cake!
A. 1) Windows 7 still has all the security of a drunken teenager in a sports car. From Windows for Workgroups and NT 3 until today, Windows is a security joke. It used to be that running Windows just put your head into the noose. Now, millions of lazy Windows users are the reason why the Internet is a mess. If you already do all the right things to keep XP running safely, you're not going to get any safer by buying Windows 7.
2) Windows 7, no matter how you buy it, is expensive. Does your budget have the extra cash to buy a new and improved taskbar!?
3) Upgrading from XP to Windows 7 will require that you do a clean install. That means everything on your hard disk gets vaporized during the 'upgrade." Vista users have it easier. So long as they're moving from equivalent version to equivalent version or to Windows 7 Ultimate they can update without needing to rebuild their systems.
There are lots of ways, like Microsoft's own Windows Easy Transfer and I'm sure there will be many more, to migrate your data from your old system to your new one, but all of them take work. If you have a business with dozens to tens-of-thousands of Windows PCs you can count on a honking, huge upgrade bill.
4) Did you notice what I didn't say above? I didn't mention transferring your old programs and device drivers from XP to Windows 7. For that, Easy Transfer and most of the first generation of migration programs are of no help at all. You'll need to reinstall your old programs and device drivers. Then, you'll need to update all those programs and drivers. Doesn't that sound like fun? Doesn't that sound like hour after hour per PC of migration work?
5) XP already works. I can tell you chapter and verse on why you'd be better off running desktop Linux or put a Mac on your desk. Most of you though are happy running XP. If that's you, I'll be darned if I can think of a single, significant change that you'll get from running Windows 7 instead of XP.

What is the role of a computer in a telephone exchange?
Q. by reading at wilipedia it does not seem that telephone exchanges make use of a computer for connecting calls (except for billing)
so rather then billing and saving customers information why is a computer used in telephone exchanges
so rather then billing and saving customers information why is a computer used in telephone exchanges
A. I'm not sure I follow your question 100%, but here goes...
In the Public Telephone Switched Network (the networking of all local exchanges and long distance calling for landlines worldwide), a computer or computerized system is often used as a server to not only facilitate the routing and connecting of calls, but allow software features changes or updates to be made to small key, PBX or hybrid configurations. Also, local exchange carriers offer services like auto attendants, automatic call distribution systems and interactive voice response systems, which can be designed to integrate both phone and computer functionality for supervisors and agents in call centers, help desks, etc.
Don't know if this sheds any light......................
