When a site could not be opened..

2013-02-28T02:57:00.000-08:00

Have you experienced when opening the internet there are several sites that are blocked by antivirus, or maybe even that often. Why so?

If the antivirus blocking file you want to upload to the server hosting. There are two possibilities:

These files do contain malware. If that is the file you want to upload to contain malware, then you should not do. Because it can potentially harm your site's visitors. In addition, the site hosting and browsers generally have a feature to block malicious applications that will result in blocking of the site and the site will be included in the list of dangerous sites or blacklists.
Maybe the file did not contain malware but it is likely to contain a string that is considered malware by antivirus applications. To overcome this, you need to send files to antivirus vendor for analysis file to make improvements for fault detection.

If for some reason you still want to keep a file is to be cleaned by the virus, but you still want to keep this file, then you can insert the file into an exception so that the antivirus will not scan a file or directory. In general, there is a menu application antivirus 'exclude' or 'exceptions', select the directory or file you want to exclude.

To minimize mistake performance of antivirus, choose a good antivirus. How to choose a good antivirus? I read this article.

Tips on Choosing the Right Antivirus

2012-11-21T00:59:00.000-08:00

Antivirus PC is not working properly? Confused in choosing the best antivirus? The following tips will help you choose a suitable antivirus for your computer. Not only the best antivirus, but also effective.

Consider your activities

Is your computer connected to the internet? Frequent use of the internet? If yes, you should choose an online antivirus protection features. Another case if you did not connect a computer to the internet. Pretty standard antivirus to protect your computer.

So what distinguishes standard antivirus and antivirus on the internet? It's easy. Usually standard antivirus will only list the brand and the 'virus' word. While antivirus for internet is usually coupled with the 'internet' word.

In addition to these characteristics there are also antiviral use the word "smart" or "total" for the internet version. Examples ESET Smart Security and Bit Defender Total Security.

If you are still not sure whether the antivirus is the standard version or for the internet, just ask the dealer. But remember, not all sellers know the difference. I myself was never fooled. When asked, the salesman said internet security version, after cleaning is the standard version of the antivirus.

Computer specs

Note the specification of your computer. Is your computer meets the system requirements antivirus?

If you have an old computer, do not select the latest antivirus. Your computer may not be able to run the latest antivirus. If imposed, the computer will work very hard. From my experience, the latest antivirus is still able to run smoothly on a computer or laptop in purchasing a maximum of 4 years ago.

Free or paid?

Free Antivirus is usually enough to be used on a standard computer, not connected to the internet, and not too often incorporate flash or other removable storage (eg, memory cards, external hard disks, etc.).

However, if you are an active computer user, all your work using the computer, store important files, often online, then you have to use a paid antivirus. Antivirus pay offer better protection than the free version.

In the next article I will explain about the comparison of free and paid antivirus.

Additional feature

Do you need the extra features of an antivirus? For example, a password manager? Gaming Mode? Parental controls? Select the antivirus with the features you need. Do not be greedy with the anti-virus that has many additional features. Antivirus with many extra features usually heavy to run, and as a result the computer is very slow.

Read the review

After choosing antivirus you want to use, read reviews antivirus. Is a product that is often conceded a virus or not? How does she look? Reading the various reviews. If necessary, ask your friends who already use it.

It is important that you will not regret choosing antivirus, especially if you want to use paid antivirus.

Many people wonder about the cost of production of the iPad Mini, so Apple sets the lowest price of miniature versions of the iPad Wi-Fi 16 GB is $ 329 U.S.. A research institute IHS iSuppli said the iPad Mini production costs estimated at U.S. $ 188.

As we know, the iPad Mini version of Wi-Fi 16 GB priced at $ 329. If the IHS iSuppli research is correct, there is a difference of $ 141 U.S..

While the cost of production for the iPad Mini version of Wi-Fi 32 GB at U.S. $ 287. And the cost of production for the iPad Mini version of Wi-Fi 64 GB for $ 350 U.S.. For the price, the iPad Mini version of Wi-Fi 32 GB is $ 429 and the iPad Mini version of Wi-Fi 64 GB is priced at U.S. $ 529.

Apple has a price difference of course is used for various purposes such as promotion, shipping costs, and so on. And not all of the company's profits.

Then to what the highest cost component in the production of iPad Mini? Price of the most expensive component in the iPad Mini is for the 7.9 inch touchscreen display which is $ 80 U.S.. The components of the A5 processor in the iPad Mini costs $ 13 U.S..

While prices for other components such as the internal memory of the iPad Mini version of Wi-Fi 16 GB is $ 15 U.S.. But the price of memory is different from any version of the iPad Mini, the price of memory on iPad Mini version of Wi-Fi 32 GB memory is different from the price of the iPad Mini version of Wi-Fi 64 GB.

This is more detailed of the cost of production of the iPad Mini version Wi-Fi 16 GB:

Step editing PHP Function that uses Encode Bytecode

2012-11-02T10:15:00.002-07:00

Some premium wordpress theme that we buy sometimes deliberately provided with Bytecode encoding by the developer (PHP files), examples are premuim wordpress theme that I got this.

Examples of my wordpress themes contained Bytecode decoding, for example:

<?php $_F=__FILE__;$_X='Pz48P3A5cA0KDQo3dW5jdGlvbiAwcHQ5M20zc25vMF9zM3R0aW5ncygkazN5KSB7DQoNCglnOG9iNTggJHMzdHRpbmdzOw0KDQoJMjN0dTJuICRzM3R0aW5nc1skazN5XTsNCg0KfQ0';eval(base64_decode('JF9YPWJhc2U2NF9kZWNvZGUoJF9YKTskX1g9c3RydHIo........................

base64_decode('JF9YPWJhc2U2NF9kZWNvZGUoJF9YKTskX1g9c3RydHIoJF9YLCdqd3ZhcmhlZmw4NzM5MjU0MDYnLCc2MDQ1MjkzNzhsZmVocmF2d2onKTskX1I9ZXJlZ19yZXBsYWNlKF9fRklMRV9fLCRfRiwkX1gpO2V2YWwoJF9SKTskX1I9MDskX1g9MDs=')); ?>

With Bytecode encoding means it can not if we want to change the layout of a function or a particular part of the code of this theme, even if we've paid for it, we can not.

Obviously this is a bit frustrating, but it is possible to reverse engineer the file as follows to make the changes you need. I myself need 2 days to find a way on the internet. And here I will share with you now.

Here are the steps you need to do to change the PHP function that is secured by encoding Bytecode:

The three component parts

Each file has 3 main parts to it:

$_F=__FILE__;

$_X='a-string-of-text-and-numbers';

eval(base64_decode('a-string-of-text-and-numbers');

These parts are as follows:

$_F - a holder to do the ereg_replace of the obfuscater code with the unencryption keys

$_X - the encrypted PHP code

eval(base64_decode() - the decryption code for $_X

Getting the decryption code

To get the decryption code, we need to change the eval(base64_decode()); code to be an echo instead.

In our case above this would be:

echo(base64_decode(‘a-string-of-text-and-numbers’); and this gives us the decryption code for the main $_X values;

$_X=base64_decode($_X);$_X=strtr($_X,'123456aouie','aouie123456');$_R=ereg_replace('__FILE__',"'".$_F."'",$_X);eval($_R);$_R=0;$_X=0;

If we break this apart into it’s core lines we have:

//decode our main string with base64_decode
$_X=base64_decode($_X);

//replace obfuscater characters in the result with the correct ones
$_X=strtr($_X,'123456aouie','aouie123456');

//replace the contents of $_R with our unencrypted file/PHP code
$_R=ereg_replace('__FILE__',"'".$_F."'",$_X);

//run the contents of the unencrypted file/PHP code
eval($_R);

//clear the contents of $_R so you can't access it
$_R=0;

//clear the contents of $_X so you can't access it
$_X=0;

Decrypting the encoded code

So now we just need to run the decryption code as far as it replacing the contents of $_R with the un-encrypted result, and echo that out to the screen.

Here’s the code:

//decode our main string with base64_decode
$_X=base64_decode($_X);

//replace obfuscater characters in the result with the correct ones
$_X=strtr($_X,'123456aouie','aouie123456');

//replace the contents of $_R with our unencrypted file/PHP code
$_R=ereg_replace('__FILE__',"'".$_F."'",$_X);

//print the contents of the unencrypted file/PHP code
echo($_R);

Final code

So we end up with:

<?php
$_F=__FILE__;
$_X='a-string-of-text-and-numbers';
$_X=base64_decode($_X);
$_X=strtr($_X,'123456aouie','aouie123456');
$_R=ereg_replace('__FILE__',"'".$_F."'",$_X);
echo $_R;
?>

Done.. And we can now make the changes we need.

Apple officially launched the iPad Mini 7-inch tablet. As the name suggests, the iPad version has a smaller screen size is 7.9 inch but is actually bigger than the other competitors on average only 7 inches.

But again this Mini iPad using Core A5 Dual core processor as used in the iPad 2 (not A6 as the new iPad).

Honestly, iPad Mini is smaller version of the iPad 2 because some of its features are also more similar to the iPad 2 than the new iPad version.

As with the 7.9 inch screen which is owned by the iPad Mini, still using a resolution of 1024 × 768 and not Retina display (2048 × 1536), only when compared to the iPad 2 Mini, higher ppi on the iPad is 163 ppi.

While new technologies are adopted from the new version of the iPad is the Lightning connections.

Now the question is, you should buy an iPad Mini or reguler iPad ? Regardless of the price, if we stay the hell over to choose a bigger screen because for us, 7.9 inch screen size remains the same trouble with a 10 inch different, more convenient to use.

At that price, the iPad Mini for sale:
