I know that every account uses some space, but beside that, is it slowing down computer in some other way?
I have windows 7.
The only way it would impact performance (other than the disk space as you mentioned) is if more than one user is logged on to the machine at the same time, like when a "Switch User" is done, which pushes all User A's running processes (using RAM and CPU) to the background essentially so the new User B can then log on.

recently I found that a process is keep running on one of our company's windows EC2(Windows server 2012 R2).
It takes up lot of resources from CPU. however, it disappear after I open the task manager for a few seconds.
Anyone has knowledge of what it is.
It seems that your instance has been compromised and is mining cryptocurrency, explaining high CPU and magically disappearing when you want to look at its process.
More about the process SystemManagement.exe is in the link.

I'm curious how does Windows 10 S kernel implementation of CreateProcess know which process to run and which one to block?
For instance, if we take Notepad.exe:
It has no issues allowing it to run. And it is not even signed:
But the regedit.exe right below it, triggers this:
I'm curious, how do they differentiate between them?
EDIT: Forgot to mention. If you want to try it for yourself, Media creation tool now allows to create a Windows 10 S iso that runs fine in a VM.

What exactly does heart bleed do and how can I protect my Windows XP from heart bleed? I heard that it takes your personal info by using memory. Can I lock my memory so that it can't use it? And if so, some insight on the subject would be nice. :)
I'm going to assume you didn't intentionally install openssl on your XP machine and that you aren't using your XP machine as a server. It's likely that the only thing you really need to worry about is websites you communicate with where the possibility that your information could be stolen could result in a significantly negative outcome for you... you need to make sure those companies have patched their servers if they were affected by the issue.

Is it 100% safe to move the pagefile.sys file from c: to another drive on Windows Server 2008? We are getting low on C: space and need to move it off, but not if there is any risk. This is a production web server and (other than a quick reboot) downtime is not acceptable, as you can imagine :)
I dont think this is a good place for such questions, its a programming related site,
I can give you a hint that this should be OK, It will even speed up you paging file, some reference below (I was actually reading it recently :) ):
http://lifehacker.com/5426041/understanding-the-windows-pagefile-and-why-you-shouldnt-disable-it
following part:
What you should actually do is move your pagefile to a completely
different physical drive to split up the workload.
but confirm it with some windows admin experts

Applications stealing focus is on of my biggest UI pet peeves. There's rarely a good reason for an application that I'm not using to interrupt what I'm doing.
Is there a way to disable focus-grabbing globally in OS X?
The only time I've ever seen "focus stealing" was when I was launching a bunch of applications at once, but didn't want them to gain focus. I do this when I start work in the morning; I have a script that launches about 5 or 6 apps I always use.
If this is your specific case, the behavior can be suppressed in apple script.
