The End is Near for Windows 7. Are YOU Prepared for it?

Windows 7 reaches its End of Life phase on January 14, 2020, which means Microsoft will stop releasing updates and patches for the operating system. It also means Microsoft likely won’t offer help or support when you’ll inevitably encounter problems. This doesn’t mean Windows 7 will stop working on January 14, 2020 – you’ll still be able to use Windows 7. However, just because you can use Windows 7 in its End of Life status, doesn’t mean you should. Continuing to use Windows 7 after January 14, 2020 not only puts your entire office network at risk, it also means your company is no longer HIPAA and/or PCI compliant. The main issue with using Windows 7 is that it won’t be patched or supported, and this leaves you extremely vulnerable to any new and ongoing threats. Even more, if a large number of people continue to use Windows 7 after the End of Life date; that could be a large motivation for malicious hackers to target Windows 7. While Windows 7 will continue to function after January 14th 2020, you should start planning to upgrade to Windows 10, as soon as possible. Especially if you have multiple computers running Windows 7. Continuing to use Windows 7 after January 14, 2020 not only puts your entire office network at risk, it also means your company is no longer HIPAA and/or PCI compliant. Also, while Microsoft has done a great job of making Windows 10 run on older hardware, it’s still a newer operating system that might struggle to work well on your old Windows 7 computer. The rule of thumb is that if your computer is over 4 years old, you should replace it as opposed to upgrading to Windows 10. If you still have Windows 7 on your business workstations, call CSi Networks for a free consultation to discuss your options.

Firefighters warn homeowners to clean vents before winter!

Read full srticle ---> http://www.wday.com/news/4507892-firefighters-warn-homeowners-clean-out-chimneys-and-vents-winter#.W7Y-lUHXTK0.link FARGO — A professional chimney cleaner's workload has doubled now that fall has arrived. He now cleans about 10 chimneys per day as the weather cools and people look to heat their homes. It's many hours of hard labor but it helps homeowners, like Carolyn Freyberger, feel a lot safer "We just bought our house a couple months ago, so we're not sure if it's clean or if they've used it, so you don't want to just start using a fireplace and have something happen," homeowner Carolyn Freyberger said. But it's not just your chimneys you want to keep an eye on, you also want to take a look at your ducts, and that includes your dryer vent because lint comes out of it and it can catch on fire. West Fargo Fire Chief Dan Fuller says firefighters see about a dozen fires caused by dirty dryer vents each year. But they say flames aren't the worst of winter woes, what they're really worried about is build-up from the furnace. "It starts in the furnace and travels through the duct, so a motor could be locked up on the furnace, the furnace getting dirty, and then the burner getting dirty, usually what you end up having is a buildup of carbon monoxide in the home," West Fargo Fire Chief Dan Fuller said. And that could be deadly. The Centers for Disease Control reports about 400 deaths per year due to carbon monoxide poisoning. Carolyn says she worries about carbon monoxide and home maintenance, which is why she puts it in ink. "It's always best to keep a maintenance journal and then you don't ever have to worry, that way when you wonder, you can just look and say 'okay, that's been checked," Freyberger said. Firefighters recommend getting your chimney cleaned once or twice a year and ducts once every two or three years.
