What is true regarding media access control?
The question is a little vague, but a media access control (MAC) address is an address assigned to network interface devices such as an Ethernet card or wireless card. The addresses are assigned by the manufacturer and no two cards share the same number; each must be unique.
What are the shared folders in Windows?
Shared folder permissions are used to restrict access to a folder or file that is shared over the network. Folder sharing is normally used to grant remote users access to file and folders over the network. Web sharing is used to grant remote users access to files from the Web if Internet Information Services (IIS) is installed.
When folders are shared, it is important to keep in mind that you can share folders only, and not files. For users that are locally logged on to a computer, shared folder permissions are irrelevant. Shared folders that are moved are no longer shared. When shared folders are copied, the copy is not shared. The original shared folder however remains shared.
A few disadvantages associated with share permissions are listed below:
Shared folder permissions do not have as many permission options as NTFS permissions. The only shared folder permissions that can be assigned to users/groups are Read, Change, or Full Control.
Share permissions are not inheritable.
You cannot back up or audit shared folder permissions.
If you move or even rename a shared folder, the shared folder permissions for that particular folder no longer exist.

How do you delete unwanted files from PC?
If it's cookies and other files websites put on your computer then a Macafee Virus scan will remove it but you can also click on them once to select them then hit the delete button (not the same as backspace).
Go in to the control panel and select region and language. Then keyboards and languages. Then change keyboard. Select add. Expand the language you want (I assume English UK in this case). Expand keyboard and select the keyboard you want. You can preview to make sure it's the one you want/have. Click OK. Select your choice as the default input language and click OK.

What you need to back up your files?
A MUST is your Windows files which tends to be labeled as C:\Windows or instead of C:\ it would be your local drive... where your Windows files are located at.
There's generally not just a list of files that you need to back up just basically anything that you don't want to lose. I backup all my music, movies, and personal pictures.
Why don't programs work on macs and why can't a mac have the same programs as a Windows Computer?
Mac OS is BSD-based and Windows is NT-based. NT came from the depths of OS/2; BSD came from the depths of UNIX. Both systems are very different and use different executable file formats. Both OSes are commercial and neither supports the other in any way so neither OS can run the other's applications. There are, however, virtualization options for Mac OS to run Windows under Mac OS concurrently, and virtually all MacBooks and MacBook Pros today are Intel based so one can use Apple's Boot Camp software to dual-boot and (non-concurrently) run Windows XP and Mac OS on the same laptop. Virtualizing Mac OS from Windows or running Mac OS on PCs is not supported by Apple, although ingenious hackers have figured out how to "reverse engineer" Mac OS to run on a typical PC, with varying degrees of hardware support. However, the legality of the same is highly questionable.
