A few hours ago one of my zencart e-commerce websites was hacked and a new re-directing virus code was added to the website. After a bit of research I found out that this little redirecting malicious code has been causing problems on numerous other websites around the internet, mainly e-commerce websites.
So I thought I would do a post to help out other webmasters that might be dealing with this little piece of annoying code. » Read the rest of the entry..
This is a very easy to do tip for getting a decent speed boost from windows 7 and to increase it's stability. In fact, if you keep getting random crashes it most likely a result of this service eating up memory and conflicting with everything else.
