Choosing a web-hosting provider these days can be daunting task with the vast number of options you have. Some think “Well its just a place to put my website, how complicated can it be?” In order to choose a competent and reliable hosting provider, you need to do some homework and see what services and guarantees your choice provides. Remember you always get what you pay for! Here are a few things you should look at when researching a potential web hosting provider.

Almost daily I am asked how to remove spyware or malware from an infected windows system so, I thought I would compile a list of the free utilities I use to perform that task. That way I could point those poor souls here instead of spending thirty minutes explaining all the options.

These programs can help you remove malicious software by helping you to detect, remove, and prevent your system from getting infected in the first place. No Windows system should be without these programs.

I listed these in the order that I try them when I’m cleaning a system. If option one doesn’t work then I move to option two and so on.

Just a quick tip to prevent hot linking to the items on your blog. Saves bandwidth and prevent others from embedding images on your site in their blogs.

Add the following code to the .htaccess file at the root of your site.

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www\.)?YourDomain.com/.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule \.(gif|png|jpg)$ - [F]
