Most of the time it is for some troubleshooting that I am forced to see the &#8216;blue screen&#8221; (Microsoft windows). Windows badly needs an antivirus software and between the antivirus and the virus( Microsoft windows) the users are taken for a ride.

They don&#8217;t believe me when I say that I have been using an Open source software for operating system and I have never had to use an antivirus for the past six years and that I have never had to reformat the disk or need any &#8216;janitor software&#8217; to take care of registry and junk files.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Microsoft is a past master in making virtue out of a weakness. A case in point is its inefficient way of storing files, which causes fragmentation of files. So you have a defragmentation utility doing  a weekly or monthly maintenance. It displays a nice colourful screen showing microsoft working hard to organize your disk; but then who messed it up in the first place? Linux doesn&#8217;t clutter up the disk so you do not need a defragmentation utility and it is as simple as that. <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every time I see a user struggle with Windows and IE, I am deeply hurt to see so much avoidable pain in the computer world.
