If you find yourself with your keyboard suddenly stopped working but your touchpad and buttons working just fine then check you haven’t accidentally activated “Filter Keys” by pressing both shift keys at the same time for 8 seconds.
Once you do that, keyboard operations will go back to normal.
Windows Filter Keys ignores keyboard input unless the key is held down for a significant period of time, designed as a windows accessibility feature, you may have accidentally activated this.
The infamous torrent website The Pirate Bay has released an all in one TOR/Firefox installation that allows you to access blocked normal domains and also internal .onion servers hosting secondary access to the most popular torrent sites, download from http://piratebrowser.com
Do not use it to access any personal information, email etc, using the TOR network technically makes you more anonymous but if you send any unencrypted traffic everyone can see it.

I’ve fixed many the computer infected to the brim with viruses just because the kids tried to “download a song from internet”.
Over the years things have changed, many music file sharing programs have come and gone, torrents is the most popular way currently but several ISP block torrent sites and browsing your most likely to bump into pornographic advertising, unsavory content for the kids, so how can you get your favorite tunes and avoid all the crap?
It’s most likely the song you want is on Youtube and all you have to do copy and paste the Youtube address of the video you want as an mp3 into this website http://offliberty.com and click on the OFF button.
It will it then in a few seconds give you the option to save the file as mp3 or even as a mp4 video file. All you have to do is right click and “Save file as” on the link.
No filesharing software used, no funny downloads from websites or untrustworthy addons installed in your browser, neat 🙂
