Post by tech.yahoo.com

Want to get rid of the mostly useless Windows Defender security tool from your Vista computer? Ha! Microsoft tricked you! You won’t find Defender in the Programs and Features control panel because you can’t uninstall the tool, at least not without serious (and unnecessary) headaches. Deleting the Defender executables can cause your computer to throw out error messages, so actually removing the code from your machine is not advised.

Here is what The register claims:

It is an article of faith, of course, that whatever Steve Jobs does is right. And so, since the iPhone currently has no keyboard on it, it must logically follow that it is wrong to have a keyboard, and therefore that Steve Jobs will never produce a version that does have a keyboard.

Fervent fans can therefore see no reason to change the iPhone from its current "type on the touch screen, or not at all" design. As one of the more zealous remarked when the suggestion was even mentioned: "The only people who think it needs a keyboard are people who have never used it."

How to add new programs onto your iPhone

We show you how you can install new third-party games, utilities and applications to your iPhone

Warning: Recent Apple Software updates may ‘brick’ your iPhone if you carry jailbreak it or unlock the handset from Apple’s preferred network provider.

The Apple iPhone was designed to be a closed system with Apple preventing any third-party applications, games or utilities being added to it.

However because the operating system is based on Unix industrious programmers have already found various methods of bypassing Apple’s ‘barriers’ and allowing people to add new software to their iPhones.

At first this meant a lot of rather scary programming processes with names like ‘jailbreak’ which were enough to have the typical iPhone user running for the hills while cradling their iPod protectively.

But in recent weeks many of these indimidating command line routines have matured into simple, easy-to-install programs that safely open your iPhone to new features such as IM, RSS readers, games and more.

One of the best of these is called AppTapp and it’s now available for both Windows and Mac computers – although inevitably it’s easier to install on Macs.
