A couple new items this month: we've upgraded the free askSam
Viewer that's available to download from our Web site. We've
also imported the text of HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability &
Accountability Act) into a searchable askSam database that you
can search on-line or download and search on your computer. We
have details and links to more information below.
Did you ever notice the all the processes running in the
background on your computer? (You can see these in the Windows
Task Manager.) ProcessLibrary.com is a free site for anyone who
wants to know the purpose of any process running on your
computer.
Enjoy the Summer,

1) ProcessLibrary.Com - What's Running On Your Computer
When my computer feels sluggish, I check to see what processes
are running. I press CTRL+ALT+DELETE and choose the TASK MANAGER
button. This displays the Windows Task Manager, and when I click
on PROCESSES tab, I get a list of all the processes running on
my computer. Unfortunately, the items listed are a bit cryptic.
Do I really need "lsass.exe", "smss.exe", and "ati2evxx.exe"?
This is where ProcessLibrary.com is useful. This free on-line
resource lets you look up processes and gives you detailed
information about them. Find out which processes are crucial,
which are unnecessary, and which may constitute a security
threat. Quite a useful Web site, check it out at:

2) New: askSam 6 Viewer
We've just released an upgrade version of the free askSam
Viewer. The askSam Viewer lets users browse and search manuals,
catalogs, research notes, legal texts, government regulations,
resumes, or any other information distributed in askSam
databases.
The updated askSam Viewer supports a folder view making it
easier to browse through information. We have been providing a
variety of useful information for researchers, journalists,
academics, and other information professionals.

3) New: HIPAA Legislation in Searchable askSam Database
Just released by askSam: the HIPAA legislation in a free,
searchable askSam database. Not the most exciting reading, but
very useful for those who need it.
The askSam version of HIPAA allows you to search, browse,
and analyze the budget text, either on-line or on your own PC.
