Some Useful Security Tips

Here are som useful security tips for you from our registry cleaner team.

Get Yourself a Secure Password


Do you want to have a guaranteed (well, not 100%) safe passwords in Window? You can actually generate it automatically. Open up the CMD window and type

net user username /random

Instead of the username, type the name of the current account. A new password is created and is set in operation! The password will be shown only one time, so remember that you must write it down (to remember it will not be possible) if you want to start Windows again!

A easy job, but nothing for the doubtful – why you should choose difficulty level average.

Be Careful With The Tiny Url's

Do you have tried http://www.tinyurl.com some time? It is a excellent method that shortens down an infinite long internet address to manageable formats, for example if you will send it to someone with e-mail. Really long links tend of course to be row broken and becomes unusable in many e-mail programmes.

The method can also be used in order to hide how one url (Internet address) actually looks like. When you click on the link you will be redirected to the actually url.

And it is here you have to be a little vigilant. If you get an email with one Tinyurl in your e-mail perhaps you will not click on it if you do not trust entirely and entirely on the sender - it is exceptional that spammers and phishers also uses Tinyurl in order to hide their shady aims.
