There's a lot more (some obscure as in my list) at http://www.techterms.com/

AAARGGGHHHHH - must stop editing this post. Thanks Abbster, now i'm going to spend half the night thinking of more - and I've gone way off topic.

Is reformatting or rebooting is the answer to my problem caused by a VIRUS?
Q. It all started when I put on my USB (recently borrowed by a friend) and viruses started to enter my PC. I can't play some of my games like Special Force, I can't open my Task Manager, and everything really started to slow down. I installed another anti-virus Karsperski. before I have NOD and AVG. What must I do?

A. Try this to backup you PC to another device and then reinstall windows from your system disks (sure and free way to get rid of viruses look at link below as to how to back it up) and yes, reformatting will fix the problem.

Install Avira Antivir, Avast, Comodo Free firewall (all free versions) and run a scan on the backup software before you open them. Then keep checking for viruses daily. http://www.free-av.com/ , http://www.avast.com/ , http://www.personalfirewall.comodo.com/

Also, it isn't a bad idea to make your computer into a dual boot Windows/Ubuntu for easy backup, Plus you can avoid viruses/spyware by using Ubuntu to connect to the Internet.. If you have less than 384mb, try Xubuntu, less than 192mb try PCLinux TinyMe or Vector Linux.

Can somebody please help a amateur cartoonist?
Q. I am looking for a simple free cartooning program. No demo, trial, just a full version.

A. What do you mean by cartoon? If you're looking to make either a drawing or a comic strip, any digital image editor like Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator could be used. Some free alternatives would be Paint.NET and Gimp.

If you want to do animation, some of the better commercial 2D animation programs such as Digicel Flipbook, Toon Boom, TVPaint, TAB, and PAP, have Student or Express versions that are fairly inexpensive. However, you might be disappointed by how crippled these stripped down programs are compared to their more expensive Pro versions. But if you look hard enough you should be able to find them cracked online (rapidshare, bittorrent). There are some free alternatives.

If you're doing old school drawn on paper frame by frame stuff or stop-motion or 2D, I'd suggest MonkeyJam. It's free.

If you're on a Mac, use Pencil(there's PC and Linux versions as well).

If you want to do Flash animation like the stuff on Newgrounds.com, either break down and buy Adobe Flash or you can try Creatoon or Synfig, which are free. They're not Flash, but they also do vector based symbol oriented
animation.

Here are some online resources about the basic principles of animation.
