How ID programs & application developers and the purpose of programs on the list of Windows programs - Windows 7

I use Windows 7 on a 21 iMac machine.  I use an Apple software "Bootcamp", dividing the HD 500 GB between the OSX and Windows 7 operating system. I want to edit/purge my software and apps, so I'm going to Windows programs and this is the problem I have. If I down - loaded the program and I do not have the installation CD Rom disc, I can't determine from the Windows programs list exactly what programs are for icons and minimal description in the list of Windows programs.  I don't remember what it is that some of them do, but God knows my computer don't you, and if I delete something I shouldn't remove, I'll have a sick computer or worse!  All I get are, for the most part are '... you want to uninstall this program?  But of course I didn't not without knowing what the heck I'm going to do to my
computer. The program, the file name, extensions and the icons are really confusing and for a layman, incomprehensible.  It seems the developers
programs do business using trade or brand names that so little has nothing to do with the function or purpose programs.  Windows updates are not the worst, but they are at the top of the list.  I have faithfully and automatically download all Windows updates. Why. like Mickey?  I have no idea, but I trust MS (in general) to do the right thing by me and not screw up my Windows 7 operating system.  What I have to download anything that comes my way?  Probably not, but if it comes from MS or big players, I trust, MS and Adobe, Corel, etc., enough for to update, but
If I want to stream line my programs and get rid of the ball and keep only the wheat, I need to know what I got for free or paying over the years.

Suggestions are requested if all goes well and will be read carefully, even followed, if keep you it simple.  Thank you!

Oh and by the way, never uninstall updates that is sent to you via Windows updates.  As you think, Microsoft publishes these updates for specific reasons and they should never be uninstalled.

    It seems that your application id and the page id resemble developer links for your pages. You can't share a session as well. It could even be your problem: If you want to bind the user to the page of an application, use the ID correct and not the developer.

    what it means?

    How do I Unlike id and the real id of the developer?

    Please guide me because I think I'm also give the URL of developer which I just copy the URL of the web browser.

    what it means?

    This means that, following the structure of the URL of the APEX, in the example

    f?p=4000:4150:&APP_SESSION.

    the application ID is 4000, and the page ID is 4150. 4000 is actually the ID of the application that provides the APEX Builder Application development environment, and page 4150 is the definition of the pages it contains. Application between 3000 and 8999 ID are reserved for internal use of the APEX, so any application ID share you will be outside this range.

    How do I Unlike id and the real id of the developer?

    Please guide me because I think I'm also give the URL of developer which I just copy the URL of the web browser.

    There is no such thing as 'developer id' and 'real id '. Developers and end users run applications using the same ID.

    Note that published URL of permanent demand within applications should use alphanumeric calls and page aliases, ID not digital. This allows a fixed URL to provide to end users while allowing developers and administrators flexibility in how applications are deployed and maintained over time.

    If you have any remaining doubts, provide all the details of what you are doing, including the URL that you create.

  • Why programs not marked in the list of windows firewall exceptions are still able to maintain the internet connection?

    Original title: exceptions to firewall

    Can someone explain how I have after uncheck the programs in the list of windows firewall exceptions, they are still able to maintain an internet connection? I use XP sp3.

    1. what makes you think that this unnamed programs are still able to maintain an Internet connection?

    2 Windows Firewall blocks unsolicited incoming connections.  Thus, for example, if you (or malicious software), set up a FTP server running on your computer, Windows Firewall will block an application from the Internet on your computer that are trying to establish a connection and download some of your files.

    However, when your web browser sends a request to a Web site server to load a page, incoming web server traffic is allowed because it's in response to a request made on your computer.

    This distinction between the incoming and outgoing traffic is why some people insist that the third-party firewall, which usually block/monitor of traffic in both directions is required.  The scenario is that you inadvertently introduce malware on your computer (in any number of ways), and then the malware "phones home" to establish a link with the bad guys, who continue to do what they want on your computer.
