Do you have a computer or laptop that does not seem to be running quite right? There are many free tools available on the Internet that will clean up your hard drive, minimize registry clutter, remove junk files, eliminate spyware and adware, and streamline the start-up process. Some of my favorites include Spybot Search & Destroy, Ad-aware Free, and CCleaner. I run these programs on a regular basis to keep my computers optimized. It’s also a good idea to have a security suite on your computer to keep the virus and spyware invasions from taking over in the first place. My Internet provider offers the McAfee security suite as a free download to customers, so be sure to check if your ISP offers this benefit.
Also, check out Luke Allen’s Keep It Clean! website. Mr. Allen is a retired computer teacher and he presents a workshop every year at the Illinois Computing Educators conference. His website is a great resource to some of the best free tools available on the Internet.

Hey, thanks for the plug! Just discovered your blog while checking backlinks to my site. You might be interested in knowing that the session has also been presented in Mt. Vernon, IL, Nashville, TN, Springfield, IL and St. Louis, MO. I'll be on the schedule again this fall at the same conferences as the interest in the session continues to hold strong!
