How to Install & Uninstall the Privoxy Windows Service - Tutorial for Beginners

I was helping out one of our forum poster's who was trying to get his Privoxy running as a Windows service, but ran into trouble, so I figured I'd whip up a quick video tutorial while I was at it.

It's a fairly simple process, and "shouldn't" cause too much trouble. If anyone has any other tips / tricks / additions, please post! Smile

How To Fix an Overheating Laptop (WITHOUT having to take it apart!)

I recently was repairing a few problems with a Toshiba Satellite laptop (L305D-S5938 in this particular case) for someone and was getting nowhere real fast, because it overheated if you just looked at it funny.

How To Set A Program To Run As "Administrator"

Very often these days we need to manually choose to run a program as the computer's "Administrator" (or "Admin" for short). What this is for is so that the program is able to perform certain actions that it normally cannot do when not being run as the Administrator. One example (of many) is to perhaps start and / or stop a Windows Service. There are 2 ways do do this, one is a temporary "one time use way", and the other is the permanent way.

The "temporary" way is meant to be used if you only really need to run the program as Admin one time, or just every so often.
