Wireless Security WEP

Using a WEP key is like using a bathroom lock that you can open with a butter knife. It will keep out the accidental walk-ins but not someone who wants to get in.

Many people would be suprised at just how insecure wireless security is. This Lifehacker article shows you several ways to crack a WEP key. It’s so easy an amatuer can do it.The author states that this article is not intended to show people how to hack into others networks but instead show you just how easy to crack a WEP key is and why you shouldn’t use one.

It should also be noted that WPA isn’t much safer and that the most secure encryption method is currently WPA2. Always use a key even if you have your SSID hidden, and you have MAC filtering turned on.

Scan your documents and edit them in microsoft word. Upload your document @ Free OCR and convert it to text. No registration nessesary. It converts PDF, JPG, GIF, TIFF and BMP’s to text.

The only limitation is the image or pdf must be smaller than 2mb. The other method of doing this is to buy a printer that comes with a free copy of Abbey Fine reader which is a $399 piece of software. I just bought an epson printer from TigerDirect that converts scans to PDF’s, Searchable PDF’s even.
