Your System is Infected! Can Be Very Hard To Remove

Posted by on Friday, 20 August, 2010

Lots of scams can be found on the Internet. One of them is a desktop hijack called ‘Your System is Infected’.This is a very common trick used for many years now. The point of displaying this message on a user’s desktop is to create fear in that individual. Then some fake security app will promote itself (or if not will install itself) along with showing you the warning message. The following site Your System is Infected Removal will help you to remove this threat.

It was like 10 years ago than computer’s user first got such messages. This scam started really hurting computers like 4 years ago. Many times, the first versions of this bad programs show bad words (profanities). We are not talking about 1 or 2 bad words…but many of them. They were simply trying to make the person feel embarrassed and create a fear of loss and doubt in the consumer. The main goal was for you to eventually buy the registered version you were talked about. Things like pornography were also used during a moment as a trick to hijack computers. The following online service Remote Computer Support has true experts to help you remove this bad program once for all.

Computer’s users were calling me to say they had such problems on their computers, and with kids at home, it was unacceptable. Many of those users did purchase the registered version in hope to get rid of this bad program. The bad messages were not removed at all, even by those buying the full version.

This kind of attacks tend to catch lots of unaware users, like you and I. They will hurt you and are very efficient to do it. Do not believe it and don’t buy this false app. Your money will only serve bad people and their goals.

To remove the warning “Your system is infected” you should use a good security client. The security program will also remove any others viruses from your computer system. Your Desktop will be reset as it was before and the image will be removed by any good antivirus software.

The problem most people have is installing a good client to help remove the threat. More than 70% of computer’s users will not be able to install any new apps. If you are one of them, simply check one of the links you have seen before. We have listed several items that should be very helpful to you.


Japanese P2P virus catches you downloading porn, demands money to clear your name

Posted by on Thursday, 15 April, 2010

There’s a pretty hilarious computer virus causing a bit of havoc in Japan right now. It affects users of the P2P program Winny (sorta like a Japanese version of Freenet, so says mighty Wikipedia), users who were looking for a strain of pornography known as hentai. I wouldn’t recommend googling that word while at work, or while in the presence of other human beings unless you’re prepared for a laugh followed by, “Um, what?”

So the virus works by tricking people into downloading a file that purports to be the porn in question, but then publishes your browser history while demanding money (around $10) to unpublish said information.

Around 5,500 people have been infected so far. Winny has some 200 million users, which is absolutely shocking to me: how did such a popular program fly under the radar? Well, “under the radar” in that I’ve never heard of it before. Makes you wonder what other local P2P applications are out there that get zero publicity here in the U.S.

Trend Micro in Japan is monitoring the situation, so no need to go into freak-out mode.

It just goes to show you how you really aren’t going to get a computer virus unless you’re in the dark alleys of the Internet. I’ve been on a Windows 7 PC since December, and I’ve had zero viruses, trojans, or whatever.

Knock on wood, of course.

(Now watch my PC physically explodes overnight.)



Computer Safety – Parental Control Software

Posted by on Saturday, 12 December, 2009

Brought to you by inexpensive used Apple notebooks. The Internet gives us the world at our fingertips. Unfortunately, sometimes those fingers belong to a child. While innocently surfing ‘the net’, children can be exposed to inappropriate material. They may accidentally reveal personal information, their own or their parents’ credit card data, for example.

The first line of defense is to teach your child how to use the Internet safely. Children are interested in computers and the Internet as early as age two, and young children can be easily guided to appropriate web sites that provide entertainment and education.

As children get older, however, it becomes more difficult to supervise all their online activities. By adolescence, they may engage in viewing pornography or chatting online with potential predators. Sometimes they’ll post photos of themselves and provide information that could allow pedophiles to approach them.

Being involved with your child’s online activities helps limit some of these risks. Keeping the computer in the living room or just being interested in what they view may be enough to help children resist the temptation of ‘forbidden’ sites.

It’s usually not possible, though, to supervise all their online activities. Scary thought, but when you’re at work or shopping you can’t know what your child is being exposed to.

Or can you?

In fact, there are a variety of software and hardware tools that can limit your child’s Internet access or monitor his or her computer activities. Most cost very little, some are even free, others are simply helpful tips for how to restrict access.

FILTERS

Filtering software works by blocking certain web sites or specific keywords. Parents can specify them or use a pre-built list. For example, a list of pornographic or otherwise inappropriate sites is provided by the software vendor and can be updated from their web site. Any time your child tries to access one of these web sites he or she will get a ‘HTTP 404 Page Not Found’ or similar message.

Filters can also be set up to block access to certain types of Internet traffic such as instant messaging, newsgroups, e-mail, or peer-to-peer (P2P) hosting. The latter is often used for file exchanges.

These filters aren’t perfect and it’s next to impossible for a database to be completely up-to-date because new web sites come onto the Internet all the time, but they help.

Another type of software records all your child’s computer activity – sites visited, e-mails sent or received, programs run, even individual keystrokes in some cases.

Another option is to install software which restricts computer use to certain times during the day. The computer shuts off at scheduled times or when a certain amount of data has been downloaded from the Internet. Actually Windows has built-in facilities for doing this, but configuring it requires a level of expertise beyond the average user.

Software exists which can block your child’s name, address or other personal details as specified by the parent from being sent.

BROWSERS

Some browsers are specifically designed for children that incorporate many of the filters discussed above. They’re easier for children to use than Internet Explorer or Firefox but don’t rely solely on this type of browser, however. Internet Explorer can’t be un-installed from the Windows operating system and any net savvy kid will probably find out how to gain access to it.

Nine minutes in heaven with the Kohjinsha DZ Dual Screen laptop

Posted by on Friday, 11 December, 2009

What else do you have to do this morning? I mean think about it: there’s maybe a cup of coffee waiting for you in the break room and maybe someone brought some donuts. It’s the holidays. Who is doing anything today? Not you, that’s for sure.

So sit back, take off your tie, and watch some dude open the Kohjinsha DZ dual screen laptop. You can thank me nine minutes from now when you come out of this video a better person.

I, personally, would love me a dual-screen notebook. I could put one my email on one screen and my pornography on the other! What would you use yours for?



Yes, Virginia, the Internet is for porn

I’m sure you’ve heard that song from that play called “The Internet is for Porn.” Turns out, it is! Researchers from the University of Montreal were trying to determine to habits of men in their 20s vis-à-vis pornography, but they ran into a problem: they couldn’t find enough men who said they didn’t watch porn! Men are dogs, et cetera et cetera.

So what were the results, seeing as though they couldn’t find anyone who didn’t watch porn?

• Single men watched an average of 40 minutes of porn three times per week

• Non-single men watched porn a little bit less, 20 minutes and 1.7 times per week

• Men have “conventional” sexual habits, whatever that means

• Porn hasn’t changed men’s perception of women

And there you have it: men watch a lot of porn, presumably all of it online. It’s just so easy nowadays. You could be looking up the history of the automobile then wind up on some streaming site watching What Moves You. Or maybe you’re trying to find benchmarks of a certain video card, and before you know it you’re knee-deep in something.

Roku announces Roku Channel Store, adds Facebook and Pandora (and maybe porn!)

Posted by on Sunday, 22 November, 2009

Your Roku box just got a whole lot more interesting. Roku, if you remember, makes the Roku player, a small device that sits next to your TV and plays Netflix, Amazon Video, and MLB selections. Roku has just added ten new channels to that line-up and built a fascinating platform for adding more down the line.

The current channels will include: blip.tv, Facebook Photos, Flickr, FrameChannel, Mediafly, MobileTribe, Motionbox, Pandora, Revision3 and TWiT. More channels will be available here shortly.

The channels require you to authenticate with the service provider – you don’t enter any passwords on the Roku box, at least in most cases – and will eventually allow protected and pay-per-view access to channel providers. Roku spokesperson, Brian Jaquet, also mentioned at some providers could protect their content behind a hidden pay wall, like Netflix, and offer delightful content like distance learning and pornography. While both of those are self explanatory, it behooves us to note both modes of content are the interface between or among two or more individuals centered on a shared goal.

He said:

While the Roku Channel Store won’t distribute porn publicly, there are some hidden channel features whereby partners can make a channel available using a code. This could be used for things like distribution to vertical markets like education and training videos that can be pushed to private groups for viewing on the TV on demand instead of having to set up a satellite feed or send DVDs.

The upgrade will hit in the next two weeks and will work on all Roku boxes including the SD, HD, and HD-XR.

How does it work? I tried the Facebook was request a token from Facebook for login. You then typed the token into the Roku box and all of your photo albums appeared on the browser, available for playback in whatever resolution you uploaded.

From internet audio to video podcasts; professional web content to photo sharing; personal video content to children’s entertainment, the Roku Channel Store provides an open platform for delivering quality content to the TV. The new channels now available for customers to add to their Roku experience via the Roku Channel Store include: blip.tv, Facebook Photos, Flickr, FrameChannel, Mediafly, MobileTribe, Motionbox, Pandora, Revision3 and TWiT.

Because we have created an open platform for development, customers can expect even more new content channels in the near future making the Roku player an even more valuable component of a customers’ home entertainment system.”

To access the Roku Channel Store and subsequently add or remove channels from the home screen, customers will need to create a Roku account. With a Roku account, customers now also have the ability to manage their channels and personalize their entertainment options in a way that has not been possible before. Roku customers can add as many channels as they want. Conversely they can also remove all channels that do not interest them, leaving only the channel or channels they access on a regular basis. And because it is a channel store, new channels will arrive all the time for customers to consider.

All Roku players, including the Roku SD, Roku HD and Roku HD-XR, are compatible with the Roku Channel Store. Our flagship content partners, Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX), Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) Video On Demand and MLB.TV, will continue to be available to existing customers regardless of whether or not they set up a Roku account. However, in order to browse the Roku Channel Store and add and remove channels from the Roku player, customers first must create a Roku account.

Pricing and availability
The Roku Channel Store will be delivered as an automatic and free upgrade to all existing Roku customers over the course of the next two weeks. New customers will automatically be upgraded when they first install their Roku player. To browse and use the Roku Channel Store, existing customers will be prompted to create a Roku account. Existing customers who do not want to wait for their Roku player to update automatically can manually update their Roku player immediately. Detailed instructions can be found in the Help section of Roku’s website under the Roku Channel Store tab at http://www.roku.com/support/faqs.
