It's so resent if my files deleted by antivirus automatically. It often happened. Why? I know because every antivirus has realtime protection feature. This feature will perform realtime scanning while we working. But I hate if this feature delete my files suddenly. I like to create some applications such as PC monitoring tool. The file like PC monitoring usually detected as trojan by antivirus software. But if you think it will not be harm to your PC, you can exclude your files into excluded items on antivirus software.

How choose your PC or notebook for your need?

Apple Macbook

Below are some tips "How to buy a PC or Notebook":

1. Before you buy a PC or Notebook you should consider "what is it used for?". For example: a officer need a PC for office data processing. I think it will not be efficient if the officer buy PC with high specification such as PC that equipped with Intel Core i7 with 4 GB of VGA card and 8 GB of RAM. Otherwise, a animator need a PC for create animation movie. It also will not good if the animator but PC with low specification such as PC that equipped with Intel Pentium 4 with 256 MB of RAM and 64 MB of VGA Card. So for conclusion, before you buy a PC or Notebook you should consider "what is it used for?". Why? Because if you will buy a high specification PC only for office data processing, you will waste your money. Office data processing will not need high memory or processor consumption. Otherwise, If you buy a low specification PC for create animation movie, you will waste your time because to create animation movie need high specification of VGA card, memory and processor. Low specification PC will not able to handle this work.
2. Second, you should consider "where are you work". Are you work at indoor or outdoor? You need different notebook for different place work. For example: there are two different notebook. First, Apple Macbook. Second, Panasonic Toughbook. These are two different notebook. Apple Macbook designed for office or multimedia use. Otherwise, Panasonic Toughbook also known as rugged notebook. This notebook is suitable to used in harsh environments for example in outdoor such as forest, garden or desert. It suitable for you are working at outdoor such as police/soldier who working at field or scientists who are conducting field research. Panasonic Toughbook designed for outdoor. It has waterproof and it has hard body because it was designed using metal material.
3. Consider about "Brand". Many brand of PCs or Notebooks around the world such as Apple, Toshiba, Acer, HP, Compaq, Dell, Samsung, Lenovo, etc. Which one do you like? Who the best? I honestly, I can't answer these questions. Why? Because every brand always has good product and bad product. Sometime, the popular brand produce bad products that make the vendor recall the products. So, it up to you which one you will choose. You can also consider the the most famous brand.
