Acer Working on Several Android Devices
by Tyler on Apr.29, 2009, under Tech News
Acer is already working on several different devices using Google’s Android operating system and software, and plans to launch a smartphone using the software later this year.
“The entire industry is looking at Android,” said Acer president and CEO Gianfranco Lanci at the company’s first-quarter investor’s conference in Taipei on Wednesday.
Several more Android smartphones have been announced recently, including a few more from the G1’s developer, High Tech Computer (HTC), the first one from Samsung Electronics, and two for Far EasTone, a Taiwanese mobile network operator. Netbooks are a new frontier for Android.
Hewlett-Packard earlier this year confirmed rumors that it had been testing Android on netbooks and China’s Guangzhou Skytone Transmission Technologies said its Android netbook is undergoing final testing before it launches.
Developed by Google, Android is a smartphone operating system that is meant to make Web browsing easy, especially on Google sites such as YouTube and Google Maps. The majority of netbooks today use Microsoft’s Windows XP OS.

Facebook Virus Turns Your Computer into a Zombie
by Tyler on Dec.05, 2008, under Tech News
Hey, I have this hilarious video of you dancing. Your face is so red. You should check it out.
If you’ve received a message like that through Facebook or MySpace, you may have been exposed to the “Koobface” virus. “Koobface” comes through an e-mail sent by one of your social networking site friends inviting you to scope out a video.
Once the URL is clicked, “Koobface” prompts you to update your Flash player before the video can be displayed. Therein lies the virus, cloaked in a “flash_player.exe” file. According to the Kaspersky Lab, an antivirus organization working closely with Facebook, “the worms transform victim machines into zombie computers to form botnets.”
The McAfee Security Blog explains that when “Koobface” infects your computer, it prompts a downloaded service named Security Accounts Manager (SamSs) to load on start-up. SamSs then proxies all HTTP traffic, stealing results from popular search engines and hijacking them to lesser-known search sites.
A clear eye for fraud will help you avoid this mess. You can usually spot phony e-mails by their titles. Kaspersky found the following: Paris Hilton Tosses Dwarf On The Street; Examiners Caught Downloading Grades From The Internet; You must see it!!! LOL. My friend catched you on hidden cam; Is it really celebrity? Funny Moments. My own “Koobface” attack came in an e-mail entitled, lool, yoour blushingg afce is so funny! Checkk out. Obviously, Paris Hilton never threw dwarves, and in all likelihood, my 26-year-old friend knows how to spell more than two words. These are clear indicators you’re being attacked.
Facebook has posted instructions about how to remove the “Koobface” virus: give your computer an antivirus scrub-down and change your Facebook password.
This attack on the world’s most popular social networking site and its 120 million users comes just weeks after Facebook won an $873 million lawsuit against several people accused of hacking user accounts and spreading spam.

Well, I got sick of seeing this site doing nothing on the internet. Obviously the owner of this website or domain I should say, Doesnt care about this. It just sits in the dark corner of the internet of all the sites that go to hell. And I am paying for this? I would really like to see some more action going on this site. I mean even if you have to make it some kind of information desk or something. I don’t care. Or even start blogging about something funny or stuff what you did today. Thats really all it is. Now a question to all the little amount of users that visits this webpage, Do you want to see more content on this site? If so, Please comment and tell me what the owner should do.
