The media has been covering recent changes (both good and bad) on eBay and the seller boycott last month.    I've been a seller on eBay for eleven years, and I haven't been thrilled with what eBay has done to change the way we sell, but I still feel that there aren't too many...

You have multiple files that you decide you want to get rid of. So, you right-click and select 'Delete' and then it's gone, right? Wrong. This is because files on your computer are accessed through a file allocation table, which tells the operating system where in your disk a file can be found....

It's the age old debate, closed ports verses stealthed ports. First, what is a port? A port is the door to your computer, there's different ports for different things. The three-way handshake takes place, and the information is then delivered to your computer to a certain port, and the...
