			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Just received an email from our long-time supporting customer, to whom has just bought a new system from us and was wondering where is her favorite MineSweeper and Solitaire game in her new system.</p>
<p>Pre-installed with Microsoft Windows 7 Professional, her new system has almost all the games disabled by default, by Microsoft, of course. The reason is probably Microsoft&#8217;s way of telling users that this is a business system and not a gaming one!</p>
<p>Anyway, to turn on the default games back again, just follow the steps below and you can have fun while you work then (just wonder how to do both at the same time ??)</p>
<ol>
<li>Go to Control Panel</li>
<li>Click on &lt;&lt;<strong>Programs and Features</strong>&gt;&gt; and then click on <em><strong>Turn Windows Features On/Off</strong></em> on the left panel.</li>
<li>A dialog box will be shown, as seen below:
<p><div id="attachment_815" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 438px"><img class="size-full wp-image-815 " style="margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;" title="Turn Windows Features On or Off" src="http://www.pacificlanworks.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Win7Features.png" alt="Turn Windows Features On or Off" width="428" height="375" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Turn Windows Features On or Off</p></div></li>
<li>Tick the Games option to enable all games or select whichever you want by putting a tick next to the games.</li>
</ol>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Have fun!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Please be informed that VeriSign, the domain registry for .COM and .NET, will increase the registry fees for these two domains by July 1st, 2010.</p>
<p>This price increase is global and the increment will be 7% for .COM domains and 10% for .NET domains. This increase will be passed on to domain registrars and unfortunately, to consumers like you. The price increase is for new registration and renewal of current holding domains of yours.</p>
<p>We understand your need for these domains and we understand that the price increment might be too sudden for you to take action with it, so, in order to smoother the price increase, we will NOT make any changes to our prices for the .COM and .NET domains until August 1st, 2010, and during this time, you still get to enjoy the same price for your new registration or renewal for the .COM and .NET domains.</p>
<p>Yes, we are absorbing the price increment for ONE whole month and as many domains as you need!</p>
<p>Do act now before we increase our price too and you can even purchase or renew for multiple years to lock in long-term savings. Don&#8217;t wait to pay more.</p>
<p><a href="http://pacificlanworks.com/contact-us">Contact us here</a> and tell us which domains you are eyeing on and we&#8217;ll give you a quotation for it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We&#8217;ve detected a spam attack today that spreads as an email and tricks our customer into opening a malicious PDF file, which in tandem with an embedded VBScript may penetrate a victim’s computer and drop a so-called WORM and rootkit components.</p>
<p>The WORM component spreads through computer devices that are detected by infected systems and will automatically execute an autorun.inf file as soon as a user activates an infected device. In addition, the malware deploys a stealth technique by using a rootkit component to prevent itself from being discovered.</p>
<p>The main payload of this attack is an URL to establish a connection to a malicious website that may enable cyber-criminals to gather information and to further compromise an infected system.</p>
<p>If you have receive such an email, please delete the mail without opening the attachment. If you suspect your system is already infected or you have already open the attachment and not sure whether your system is infected, please <a href="http://pacificlanworks.com/contact-us" target="_blank">contact us</a> so that we can schedule our technician to check your system.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sports has set aside another S$2 million for the Business For Families Grant, where these additional funds would be useful for businesses that wish to attract families.</p>
<p>&#8220;It signals the Government&#8217;s ongoing committment to help businesses create a pro-family environment for Singapore and reaffirms the Government&#8217;s goal in making Singapore the best place for families and children,&#8221; said Mrs Mildred Tan, Co-chair of Business For Families Council (BFC).</p>
<p>Businesses can apply for funding support to help defray costs incurred in infrastructure, traning and business consultancy to make their business more family-friendly. Since introduced in 2007, 30 buinesses have received funding support under the grant.</p>
<p>This scheme was actually enhanced in January 2010 to allow firms to claim up to 70% instead of 50%, of the costs incurred in adopting family-friendly measures for customers.</p>
<p>Car Times human resource manager Agnes Cheng said the local car dealership plans to use the grant to make showrooms safer for children and more comfortable for the elderly, who sometimes accompany their customers.</p>
<p>For more information regarding the grant, please visit <a href="http://pacificlanworks.com/services/grants-financing/business-for-families-grant">Business for Families Grant</a> website.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are in the know, you would probably have heard the latest buzz about the new Singapore government grant called the <a href="http://asas.sg" target="_blank">Accounting Software Assistance Scheme</a>. This grant caters to Singapore SMEs to encourage businesses to implement accounting software for their business operation.</p>
<p>To determine whether you are eligible for the grant, let&#8217;s go through the following checklists:-</p>
<ul>
<li>Are you a GST-registered merchant/trader?</li>
<li>Are you still using Microsoft Excel and NOT using any other proper accounting software for your accounting and book-keeping function?</li>
<li>Are you pondering over the possible purchase of an accounting software but was put back by its high cost?</li>
<li>Do you wish that the Singapore government will help you to fund part of your accounting software purchase in order to lighten up your load?</li>
</ul>
<p>If you answer &#8216;Yes&#8217; to every one of the question above, you are in luck!!</p>
<p>Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA) and Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS) has partnered with each other and spearhead a new government grant called the <a href="http://asas.sg" target="_blank">Accounting Software Assistance Scheme</a>.</p>
<p>This scheme will be valid only from July 1st, 2009 to March 31st, 2012 and it is to encourage businesses to implement accounting software so that SMEs can improve their record keeping practises and GST (Goods &amp; Services Tax) compliances.</p>
<p>This scheme will be helping the SMEs to defray the cost of purchasing and setting up of the accounting software, as well as training on the use of the software.</p>
<p>For more information regarding this scheme, please feel free to <a href="http://pacificlanworks.com/contact-us">contact us</a>. We&#8217;ll be able to assist you from the initial consultation to the implementation and the final training and application for the scheme.</p>
