Opera Interface Opera has a habit of changing its browser interface, sometimes for the good and sometimes not, in my opinion. That’s why I stuck with version 28 for so long. This information is current as of: 1:11 PM, August 12, 2017 with Version 47.0.2631.39 Update stream – Stable System – Windows 7 64-bit I’ve […]
Fixing Chrome I was trying to help someone work out their Facebook issues but was unsuccessful. They where using Chrome on an XP system with 500 MB RAM. They could get into Facebook, but couldn’t play the games. They already ran an antivirus scan. I suggested using CCleaner to clean out temporary files; this has […]
Passwords Stored In Browsers It’s easy enough to forget your passwords. Sometimes passwords are saved, hidden on your computer, like on-line site passwords hidden in your browser. Here is how to dig them out or clear them. Editor’s Note: Using your browser to save passwords is considered a high security risk and is not recommended. […]
Forgotten Passwords I’ve known people who have automatic login enabled on their Facebook accounts and then the data gets erased and they can’t remember their passwords.

Customizing Things If you have been following my writing for the last couple of years you would have noticed that I love adding my style to things.

Opera VPN If you are using Opera, you may or may not be aware that Opera now has a Free VPN built in. VPN or Virtual Private Network is like using a proxy server to hide your browsing habits, but unlike simple proxy servers, VPNs encrypt your data for that extra layer of security and […]
Did you know that many people use their PayPal account for everyday transactions with Amazon, eBay and many other on-line retailers? So I asked myself, “Can I send an invoice to someone using my personal PayPal account?” With a business account it’s a fairly easy decision to send an invoice to a client, but with a […]
In a recent article here at DCT I showed how to Activate Dark Mode in YouTube and in another I raved about Opera and it’s many stand-out features. It’s entirely possible, yet highly unlikely that the good people at Opera actually read those two articles because version 45.0.2552.635 (PGO) aka Opera Reborn has introduced not only […]
Britain’s National Health Service Following the global cyber/ransomware attack this week, it transpires that the UK’s National Health Service (NHS) is still using Windows XP on a reported 90% of its systems, even though XP has not officially been supported by Microsoft since April 2014.

Cool YouTube Darkness Apparently Google is working on a not-so-secret Dark Mode for YouTube and you can activate it yourself in just three easy steps. Personally, I find a darker background to be easier on the eyes and certainly hope that Google incorporate this feature into YouTube on a permanent basis. How to Activate Dark […]
Netflix Is Now a Dating App Without doubt, Netflix is the world’s most popular media streaming service; it’s easy to use, offers an amazing variety of content and until very recently used a tried and tested five-star rating system that made sense and was logical for viewers to relate to.
