Acnezine treatment for your acne should be accompanied by a healthy skin care routine.

Wash the affected area twice a day with mild soap. Use soap such as Dove, or one that contains benzoyl peroxide, such as Oxy-5. Wash as often necessary to keep the area clean. Do not scrub.

Shampoo the hair regularly.

Keep long hair off the face and shoulders and wash it daily.

Avoid shaving as much as possible; while shaving take care to avoid nicking the pimples.

Use a fresh shaving blade to minimize the chance of spreading the infection.

Avoid use of make-up or cosmetics in areas prone to acne. If you have to wear make-up, use only the hypoallergenic or fragrance free kind.

Don't pop, pick, scratch, or squeeze your pimples. This may cause infection and scarring.

You may use an over-the-counter treatment that contain substances such as benzoyl peroxide (gel or cream) or salicyclic acid. Start with the lowest strength and apply once a day about half an hour after washing. Never use more than 5 percent strength without consulting a physician.

Food and Nutrition Recommendations for Acne:Some doctors believe that acne is not a food related problem. Some alternate practitioners use diet as a basis for their treatment of acne. They recommend that acne patients should eat foods high in beta-carotene, such as carrots, pumpkin, cantaloupe and other yellow-orange fruits and vegetables. They should also avoid fatty foods. Acnezine controls the oil secretion in your body to protect your skin from getting acne prone.

Vitamin Therapy for Acne:Nutritionists generally suggest:Chromium supplements - Chromium helps boosts the body's ability to break down glucose.Vitamin A - reduces sebum and keratin production. (Caution: taking mega doses of Vitamin A can cause headaches, fatigue, muscle and joint pain and other side effects. Consult a qualified practitioner before taking mega supplements).Vitamin E - an antioxidant (200 to 400 IU a day).Vitamin B-6 50 mg per day. This vitamin aids in the metabolism of hormones and supports the function of Acnezine as well.

Note: People should not try to medicate themselves or others with any of the methods referred to here without the guidance of a qualified practitioner who is thoroughly familiar with both the remedies and the individual’s medical status. Acnezine is an antioxidant, natural product without any side effect that reduces acne.

Laptop Computer Security Tips

Laptop Computer Security Tips
by Debbie Jacobsen


Due to their portability, laptop computers tend to require a bit more care than a traditional desktop PC. They are also a lot more expensive. Following are some tips to help protect your laptop investment as well as your privacy:


Use a Computer Security Suite with an Annual Subscription Most new laptops come with preinstalled security software, but it is often "trial period" software only. Check to see that the "automatic updates" subscription is good for at least a year. If not, either renew it or uninstall and purchase new software. Here is some information on Computer Security Suites

If you use Peer to Peer (P2P) File Sharing Applications, P2P Doctor is a MUST!

P2P applications like Kazaa, Morpheus, BearShare, and Limewire are file sharing programs that will not run unless the user agrees to the installation of many advertising-based applications. These "extra" applications are known as Spyware, and can be very dangerous. If file sharing applications must be used, a program like P2P Doctor is a must. This software removes file sharing add-on programs without causing the P2P program to stop functioning.

Purchase an Extended Warranty

Most laptop computers come with a standard 12 month warranty, which will cover any system defects that arise during the first year. Although this is fine for a desktop computer, I have found that many laptop hard drives and displays actually break down during years 2 and 3. The cost of replacing a laptop hard drive is around $300, and the cost of replacing a display can easily be $800. Extended warranties don't cost that much extra, and are a wise investment.

Utilize an Online Backup Service

Laptop hard drives crash more often than PC hard drives. Your hard drive might last several years, or only several months - there's no way to tell. Because a laptop hard drive is often exposed to more "abuse" than a PC hard drive, it is imperative that your data be backed up on a regular basis. Carbonite Online Backup is the cheapest, most reliable way to protect the data on your laptop - costing only $5 a month. An excellent investment, and cheap price to pay for piece of mind.

Use Windows XP Professional, NTFS, and a Regular User Account

Windows XP Professional has a ton of security features, and is designed to provide a stable and secure operating environment for a networked computer. Make sure the hard drive is formatted with the NTFS file system, which will enable the strongest security. Create a "user" account, and a strong password (at least 6 characters, using a combination of upper and lower case + numbers). The user account does not have the power to install applications or make system registry changes, which gives you a lot of protection. Operate the laptop under the user account, and only log into the administrator account when you need to install new software. This ensures that "unknown" software is not installed without your knowledge.

Notebook Hard Drive Recovery

Notebook Hard Drive Recovery
by Linda Miller


Our society is always on the move; so it's no surprise that mobile computers are the tools of choice for today's movers and shakers.

Numerous PC sales reports have revealed that more and more people are using laptops or notebook computers each year. A number of reasons contribute to this growing trend. The technology behind and within notebook computers is advancing at a remarkable pace, and improvements are realized with each new model that hits the market. The notebook industry continues to grow, but as with every type of technology, errors and breakdowns can occur.

If your notebook experiences trouble with booting, if you hear noises originating from your hard drive, or if your drive is completely inaccessible, you likely need a notebook hard drive recovery.

When you perform a notebook hard drive recovery, you will be restoring failed hard drives and retrieving lost data from the drives. Although it may seem simple, a notebook hard drive recovery is not an easy task to perform. It is a more complicated process than the hard drive data recoveries on desktop PCs.

The main problem with notebook hard drive recovery actually lies in the fact that notebook computers are sealed, and specialized electronics must be employed due to their lightweight nature. In order for a notebook hard drive recovery to be successful, the internal components must be free of dust. This also allows the heat to properly dissipate, and allows the components to operate at their maximum efficiency levels.

It is important that only an authorized vendor or the original manufacturer open your notebook computer to investigate. Since the units are highly susceptible to dust and moisture, any hard drive recoveries must only be performed in a clean, authorized facility.

In order to save yourself a lot of trouble, you should make it a habit to backup the data stored in your notebook at least once a week. This is the single most highly recommended notebook hard drive recovery tip. Just be sure that backing up your data is only done on the network or, if necessary, on portable media. If a network is unavailable, you can use portable media for storage to ensure that the backup works one hundred percent of the time. Without this backup, you will need a professional to provide your notebook hard drive recovery.

In the worst-case scenario, you've forgotten to provide data backups, and you need a professional notebook hard drive recover. Rest assured, there are many experts available to recover lost files and repair your drives. Most of the notebook hard drive recovery companies specialize in recovering files, whether they were deleted through formatting or by accident, from mechanical drive failures or due to outside forces like water or fire damage. If you choose to have your notebook hard drive recovery performed by a professional, you can expect a success rate of over 98 percent. The services of most professional companies are warranty compliant, but you should verify this before agreeing to the service.

If lost data has slowed you down or brought your productivity to a grinding halt, call a professional for notebook hard drive recovery. You, and your notebook, will quickly be on the move again.
