CONFUSED BETWEEN CORE 2 DUO AND DUAL CORE?

INTEL CORE 2 DUO-

• THE CORE 2 BRAND REFERS TO A RANGE OF INTEL'S CONSUMER 64-BIT x86-64 SINGLE, DUAL, QUAD CORE CPU'S BASED ON INTEL CORE MICRO TECHNOLOGY
• CORE 2 DUO ARE MUCH POPULAR THESE DAYS
• IT HAS A VERY POWERFUL DUAL CORE CHIP
• IT ALSO CONSUMES LESS POWER THAN ANY OTHER CPU
• NO OVERHEATING ISSUES
• IT RUNS COOL AND PERFECT

INTEL PENTIUM DUAL CORE-

• EXCELLENT CHOICE FOR OVERCLOCKERS ON A LOW BUDGET
• IT IS BASED ON THE POPULAR CORE 2 DUO ARCHITECTURE.
• THE NUMBER OF CORES ARE SAME
• BUT THE CPU COMES WITH ONLY 1 MB L2 CACHE INSTEAD OF 2MB OR EVEN 4 MB.
• IN ADDITION, SOME FEATURES, SUCH AS INTEL'S VIRTUALIZATION TECHNOLOGY (VT) ARE DISABLED.
• THE RESULT IS A CASTRATED CORE 2 DUO PROCESSOR, USING THE SMALL CACHE SIZE AND LIMITED TO 1.6 TO 2 GHZ CLOCK SPEED AT FSB 800 SYSTEM SPEED

THE FINAL CONCLUSION

OR

• INTEL DUAL CORE PROCESSORS ARE DOWNGRADED VERSION OF CORE 2 DUO
• LESS EXPENSIVE
• BUT STILL ADEQUATE FOR GENERAL MAINSTREAM COMPUTER USE.
• IN TERMS OF PERFORMANCE ITS MORE OR LESS EQUAL TO CORE 2 DUOS.
• INTEL LAUNCHED IT WITH VERY LOW COST TO GRAB THE LOWER END MARKET.

WHAT IS WINDOWS FIREWALL AND HOW DOES IT PROTECT YOU?

• As the name suggests, its a wall against any harmful activity online.
• A firewall helps to keep your windows more secure
• It restricts information that comes to your computer from other computers, giving you more control over the data on your computer and providing a line of defense against these programs(viruses and worms) that try to connect to your computer without information

• You can think of a firewall as a barrier that checks information (often called traffic) coming from the Internet or a network and then either turns it away or allows it to pass through to your computer, depending on your firewall settings.

NOW YOU CAN VERY WELL IMAGINE HOW INSECURE YOUR PC WOULD BE WITHOUT A FIREWALL
