VIRUS PROTECTION TIPS by Slaven Radic, PocoMail CEO
Today, viruses have become a major problem for both users and
Internet service providers. Many of today's viruses do not have destructive payloads, which means they will not cause serious
damage, though there are definite exceptions.
The main damage done today by viruses is to the Internet
infrastructure - when certain virus infections reach their peak
they swamp servers with infected copies of the virus. This slows
down the affected servers, and in the case of email viruses
fills up email storage so that legitimate email is returned, and
in extreme cases can knock off corporate email systems off line
as they buckle under the increased email volume. All this can
cause world wide email delivery to often fail, resulting in
missing messages without "undeliverable mail" notices you would
normally get. These problems can also delay your email by
several days, to be delivered much later than you expected.

CREATING BIBLIOGRAPHIES WITH ASKSAM AND CITATION
By Phil Schnyder, askSam CEO
Citation is an amazing tool for recording and formatting
bibliographical information. But many askSam users prefer the flexibility of askSam for keeping their notes, research, and bibliographical information. That is why we created a new askSam/Citation Template that gives you the best of both worlds.
The askSam/Citation Template provides researchers and academic
writers with a system for entering, searching, and organizing
references and notes. Whether you gather information from books, articles, Web pages, legal sources, journals, or reports, the
askSam/Citation Template has entry forms for all these different
types of information. Each entry form allows you to enter
bibliographic information as well as notes.
