Dealio is a rather aggressive and very nasty piece of adware that infects your computer when you are least expecting it; unfortunately some people offering useful software decide that it will be better packaged with adware such as Dealio.

Ares Destiny is one such piece of useful software tainted by the color of this nasty disease.

And I didn’t realize until too late.

The first thing that you will likely notice about Ares Destiny is that the website is clean and professional looking; the next thing will be that it is entirely free of cost; the third that the download process works quickly and the fourth that the installation process is surprisingly painless. So far so good, you may be thinking.

And indeed that is what I thought. Even to the point where I was downloading and sharing music with others all over the world. I’d seen other versions of Ares around but Ares Destiny was the first one I’d notice that was free. I’d even started to recommend Ares Destiny to some of my friends.

Oh dear: what a mistake. It was only after a while that I noticed the popups ads appearing all over my computer. It was a little while after that that I tied these popups to Dealio which in turn I managed to tie to Ares Destiny. This is definitely no longer on my recommended software list.

Some say that the days of the familiar computer mouse are numbered and in the future navigation on computers will be done via touch screens or other input methods. Touch screen devices are coming in all sorts of electronic products today from PCs to cell phones and more.

HP announced a new line of touch screen PCs called the TouchSmart IQ800 series today. The system uses an all-in-one design with a 25.5-inch screen that allows users to control the system with a finger. The line of touch screen computers offers features like integrated Blu-ray players, color changing lighting that shines on the keyboard, and a HP MediaBay for extra storage.

The 25.5-inch screen has a resolution of 1920 x 1200, which will allow it to display full 1080p Blu-ray content. The series is powered by Intel Core 2 Duo CPU and has an integrated webcam. These touch screen computers also takes advantage of HP Power Management technology to reduce power consumption by up to 45% compared to PCs without power management enabled. The line will be available starting in September with a base price of $1899.

I spend most of my day making websites. I program the code, I design the graphics and I write the text. As are most techno-minded people, I’m an avid file sharer and I use P2P file sharing software – like Ares Vista – on a fairly regular basis. I am pretty confident that I know what I’m doing with it. I tell you this not to boast, but rather to hopefully demonstrate that I know a thing or two about what makes a good website. And I know that OfficialAres.com is a really good website.

Everyone who uses Ares Vista a lot knows that it is essential to take a look at the new versions of Ares Vista – and indeed download Ares Vista – on a regular basis. This is where OfficialAres.com really comes into its own: for anyone looking to download Ares Vista or even find out more information before they even consider going to download Ares Vista, this is the place to read all about it.

The reviews are, for me, the gem of the site; these are reviews that are kept up to date with the various versions of Ares Vista available across the ‘net. Before I download Ares Vista I always check here to make sure that I am in fact getting the right version for my needs.

The old adage tells us that there is more than one way to skin a cat. So it is with selling something on the web; Harry Beckwith devoted the entirety of a book on Selling the Invisible, and that’s what you do when you sell intangible goods or services over the wonderful medium of the Internet.

One way of selling a product – and I’m going to take a business opportunity like Wealth Masters International here for the purposes of the illustration – is to set up a website that purports to review said product. In this example the website will appear to be some kind of tragic life story that ends in the star of the show buying into Wealth Masters International. The conclusion will be him (or her) showing us his wonderful new life, and all thanks to Wealth Masters International!

Then there will be a link or a phone number or a contact form or an email address, and the author of the site will be happy taking his commission for every signup he gets to Wealth Masters International (or where ever).

Can you believe these sales pitches? Of course not. What you need is good, solid information about a product, and, of course, that is a little bit more difficult to come by.

If you ever wanted to get TV on your iPhone, then fear not! There has been confirmed news that ‎Apple wants you get TV too; they are, it is alleged, ready to release an app that will let you watch ‎iPhone TV using a local Wi-Fi connection. The reason you’ll need a Wi-Fi connection is simply ‎that the EDGE network can’t supply enough bandwidth to make playback any better than painfully ‎choppy.‎

One company that is ahead in this field already is Sling. Sling have the capability to deliver great ‎quality television over phones. This capability does not yet stretch to iPhone TV though allegedly ‎this is not through any lack in their competency or capability, but rather the reluctance of Apple to ‎let them use the proprietary iPhone SDK. Naturally Sling is keen to cash in on this lucrative ‎market and their key personnel are reported to have approached Apple with an offer of some kind ‎of alliance. Watch this space, and watch out for iPhone TV coming soon! ‎

If you have an iPhone that you have unlocked then it may be possible to download the Sling ‎software and watch TV from the sling box; making iPhone TV workable using this method – the ‎reverse process – must only be a few steps away!‎
