You will find answers to both your questions well covered in the FAQ.

These two questions are the most commonly asked questions on this forum and have thus been added to the FAQ (about 8 years ago).

Also, I've changed the subject line of your post to something more descriptive instead of the bizarre and random subject it originally had.
