Dear Fiends,
Welcome again to another issue of AAA-Software E-zine,
and a warm welcome to all the new subscribers.
Last week I trashed my old PC, and got a brand new
Pentium 4, with an amazing 1700 Mhz processor.
The machine came with Windows XP pre-installed, and
first I didn't like the new look much, because off the fancy
colors and borders -but I guess I'll be living with it :-)
Anyway, I set up the new system to defragment its hard
drive, clean unnecessary files and check for new emails
at the times I want it to... and it all goes automatically.
Now, how did I manage to do all this?
It's really simple. I set up the "Scheduled Tasks" folder by
using the FREE Newbie Club tutorial at:
http://newbieclub.com/automate
You should do it too. It's so easy to understand, and it really
freed up time for more productive pursuits... like writing this
software newsletter :-)
Don't forget this: always make your PC work for you, and
not the other way around :-)
Sincerely,
Your editor,
