Someone I do some IT work for had their bank account info stolen and whoever did it transferred some money to a PayPal account. Since it was PayPal it sounds like it was recovered fairly easily. But we are trying to figure out how they might have found out the information.

Saw a pretty decent laptop at a thrift store for $30 and decided to take a chance on it. Trying to figure out what to do with it since it is missing parts.
Sony Vaio VPC-F115FM
Includes:
1.6 GHz Intel Core i7 720QM
Motherboard w/ Nvidia GeForce 330M GPU
Keyboard in very good condition...
I thought the relatively new system drive I installed two months had gone bad. The computer must have crashed sometime overnight and said missing boot media when powered back up. On this first boot the hard drive sounded terrible, like it could not spin up so I assumed the hard drive was...
I am trying to figure out some VLAN basics. I have purchased a TP-Link AP (TL-WA901ND), mostly for its inexpensive PoE capability. It supports up to 4 separate SSID/VLANs although we only need 2 isolated subnets through this AP. The AP is in a very small building with two floors, but each...
I really could use some advice on how to create multiple subnets. I am upgrading the network at 10 room inn that shares internet with a few surrounding properties.
This is what I'm looking for
- Staff only LAN at the inn, preferably with WiFi access
- Guest WiFi network at the Inn using the...
I am pretty clueless with anything beyond creating a simple home wireless network. But I work at a 10 room inn which is surrounded by a few properties that are also part of the inn. We need to adequately cover a diameter of about 400ft in all directions from the inn with wireless internet...
I'm trying to troubleshoot a wireless network at an Inn which is shared among three buildings. The internet at the main building works fine.
However there is a WDS set up for the other two houses that are part of the property. The network is a bit of a mess IMO. The main problem is that...
I've been struggling hard with a mostly new build I put together last week. My current thinking is that both the motherboard and one stick of RAM are no good. But I really am unsure so trying to see what others think.
These are my new components. Everything else came from my old build and...
Wow what a deal. Knew my local big lots (Christiansburg, VA) had one of these. I went in today to get it with the 20% off coupon valid this week (http://www.biglots.com/Coupon/BuzzclubCoupon.aspx).
It was marked at $69.99 so I was expecting to walk out with it for $56 + tax but heck it...
I don't see how this would be possible but lately if I try to upload anything to my web server via ftp that is anything but a very small file, my PC freezes and I'm forced to reboot. The only thing that has really changed on my PC is the addition of the HD 4850 (had 3870). Keep trying to...
Hi, I got into video editing at the end of last year. However I have no camcorder and only a 4 year old Sony digital camera without any optical zoom though it does do video.
So..I'm pretty limited right now. I just finished up making a couple videos for my first video contest and I just...

While picking up my $20 Dynex case yesterday I saw this sitting on the shelf for $137.99. Good deal since I was looking for a cheap 2nd monitor. The...
I'm looking to build a cheap PC specifically for older games, particularly from 1998-2002 or so. The newer cards don't have optimal compatibility and so I'm looking at getting an older card. Any recommendations on a fairly inexpensive card from a couple years ago that should be able to easily...
Used Wavebird: $17.99 at Gamestop
I'm so jealous. My roommate giving his gf a Gamecube for her bday tomorrow. I see he has Wavebird and I find out he just got it at Gamestop for $17.99 and it is in near perfect condition. I've been wanting one for awhile now for SSB:Brawl, etc. Who would...
So I built a computer for myself back in December with a dual boot setup (XP Pro 32/Vista Bus. 64). When I first booted the PC I noticed I got about 2% PL on Vista only. Found a solution online and used the application "Vista Anti-Lag" to get rid of it.
Well everything has worked great for...

$300 on NewEgg
Not sure if I'll put this in crossfire with my current HD 3870 or wait for the 3870x2 (hoping that I can run that plus my current 3870 in crossfire). Hmm..what to do..
Just found it on NewEgg : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102719
Anyone heard of this before? Been reading about the Atomic version, but now see this actually released. Anyone know of any reviews for this?
I've got a Maximus Formula motherboard. There are two PCI 2.2 slots. Right now I've got a wireless adapter and an X-Fi sound card in them. However, I'm thinking that I'll be going crossfire when the ATI HD3870x2 card comes out (paired with the single ATI HD3870 I have now).
Using the...
edit: yes! Think its working now. At least I'm at bios. Was about to go to sleep but then decided to try a couple things. First I had left the cmos battery out about 20-30 minutes. Popped that back in. Then I put it back together and removed some extra motherboard spacers I accidentally...
edit: oops, typo in the topic, DDR2 1066*
Building my first PC and have all the components on the way, think I made a mistake buying memory. I'm getting a Q6600 w/ Asus Maximus Formula. I purchased 4GB of DDR2 800 (Crucial Ballistix Tracer...
