ABBYY Finereader 10 Professional Edition

2010-05-23T22:53:00.002+03:00

ABBYY Finereader 10 Professional Edition combines exceptional power to extract text and layout from almost any document with an exceptionally lucid and responsive interface. Finereader ran almost neck and neck with Omnipage Professional 17 this year (that app is a bit faster and has some high-end automation features lacking in Finereader), but if you care about getting the best possible OCR output with the fewest possible frustrations and annoyances, Finereader 10 is the clear choice.
Buzz up!on Yahoo!

Nothing matches Finereader 10's ability to produce editable output from complex and hard-to-read pages, and no other OCR app matches its ability to detect automatically which parts of a document are text, tables, or images. Documents that required tedious manual tweaking to get the correct output in Readiris Corporate 12 and Omnipage were recognized instantly in Finereader. To be fair, however, in some rare cases Omnipage correctly interpreted layouts that required manual tweaking in Finereader.

Contest: Organized or Messy Desk - Which is Better?

2010-04-03T15:55:00.007+03:00

What do you think? Here http://www.office1000.com/contest/Organized-or-Messy-Desk.html you can find an interesting contest about "To Be or Not To Be" messy or not at your desk. Witch is better? And the best answer will be rewarded with MDV3BA Pro Series Vacuum which is made by Metro Data Vac. You can also participate in this contest by just making an excellent blog post.

My thoughts...

On the image above, I wonder: "How can anyone be so effective in these circumstances?". How can someone be organized in such a work environment? A pile of sheets with different data everywhere, almost like you can not move the mouse on the desk, post-it notes on the screen, in conclusion: mess!

You just can't work here effectively. It's a dangerous environment and you can easily bring the status of the low performer. You must change your way of working! The order is the first step to efficiency. The more less things you have on your desk, the more you are more likely to be more calm, alert and focused on your activity, and the positive results will certainly come. And besides, people make their impression about you just by observing your desk. You do not want to leave the impression that you are most messy, right? Okay, I convinced you, wanna be Organized, no?

In conclusion, in a messy office you are wasting time searching for documents and different things. You simply choke! Change this negative state! Sort your stuff! Keep only what you really need on your desk. Get rid of unnecessary stuff! Maintain cleanliness and order in your office. It is the first and perhaps most important step towards achieving a high efficiency!

Google patches Chrome days before hacking contest

2010-03-19T16:18:00.005+02:00

"Only browser predicted to survive Pwn2Own gets 11 fixes by Gregg Keizer"

Google has patched 11 vulnerabilities in the Windows version of Chrome, including one that earned its finder the first $1,337 check from the company's new bug bounty program.

Like Apple , which updated Safari last week , Google beefed up the security of its browser just days before the Pwn2Own browser hacking contest was to kick off in Canada.

The update to Chrome 4.1.249.1036 fixes six flaws rated "high," the second-most-severe ranking in Google's four-step threat system; plugs three "medium" holes; and quashes two "low" bugs.

Danish vulnerability tracker Secunia rated the update as "highly critical."

Although Google typically hides technical details of the most serious vulnerabilities when it issues an update -- it blocks bug tracker entries to prevent attackers from using the information -- all of the 11 bugs are behind the wall this time.

"The referenced bugs may be kept private until a majority of our users are up to date with the fix," explained Orit Mazor, a technical program manager with the Chrome team, in a blog entry Wednesday.

A bug in WebKit, the open-source browser engine that powers Chrome as well as Safari, earned researcher Sergey Glazunov a check for $1,337, the maximum Google pays for vulnerabilities as part of a bounty program that debuted last January. Most flaws earn their finders just $500, but "particularly severe or particularly clever" bugs reap rewards of $1,337 each. The amount is a reference to "leet," a kind of geek-speak used by some researchers; there, "leet" is rendered as "1337."

Other vulnerabilities were credited to Mark Dowd, a noted browser and OS vulnerability researcher who is working under contract for Google; Robert "RSnake" Hansen, CEO of SecTheory; and Aki Helin of OUSPG (Oulu University Secure Programming Group), Oulu University in Finland.

Altogether, Google paid out $3,337 in bounties for the bugs it patched Wednesday.

Only the Windows "stable" channel -- a term Google uses in place of "final" -- was patched; the Mac and Linux versions of Chrome have not yet left the "beta" channel.

Google added several non-security features to Wednesday's update, including integrated language translation and new private browsing settings, that had made their way into the beta earlier this month.

Chrome is the second browser to be patched in seven days. On March 11, Apple fixed 16 flaws in Safari. Both browsers' updates were timely: Starting next Wednesday, Chrome, Safari, Microsoft 's Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) and Mozilla's Firefox will go head-to-head with an unknown number of hackers who will try to exploit unpatched vulnerabilities and win $40,000 in cash at Pwn2Own, the annual contest sponsored by 3Com's TippingPoint. On Thursday, Aaron Portnoy, a security research team lead at TippingPoint and the organizer of this year's Pwn2Own, predicted that Safari would fall to attack on the second of the contest's three days, while Chrome would be the sole survivor .

The last time Google patched the stable build of Chrome for Windows was in late January.

Chrome is now the third-most-used browser on the planet, having grabbed the No. 3 spot from Safari in December 2009, and as of last month, accounted for approximately 6% of all browsers in use, according to Web measurement vendor NetApplications.com.

Google Chrome can be downloaded for Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7 from the company's site. Users running the stable build will receive the update automatically.

Hackers love to exploit PDF bugs, says researcher

2010-03-19T15:35:00.005+02:00

"Last month's Adobe Reader vulnerability now under attack, says F-Secure and Microsoft by Gregg Keizer"

Hackers adore Adobe Reader, and have pushed it into first place as the software most often exploited in targeted attacks, a Finnish security company said today.

Helsinki-based F-Secure also urged users to update to the newest version of Reader to protect themselves against new attacks taking advantage of a vulnerability patched just three weeks ago.

According to F-Secure , 61% of the nearly 900 targeted attacks it's tracked in the first two months of 2010 exploited a vulnerability in Reader, Adobe's popular PDF viewer. By comparison, Microsoft 's Word was exploited in just 24% of the attacks, and bugs in its Excel spreadsheet and PowerPoint presentation maker were leveraged only a combined 14% of the time.

Reader's slice of the targeted attack "market" climbed from 29% in 2008 to almost 50% last year, but at its pace so far this year, exploits aimed at Adobe's software are on track to account for nearly two out of every three attacks.

Microsoft's portion of targeted attack exploits, meanwhile, has steadily declined. Last year, for example, Word, Excel and PowerPoint exploits accounted for approximately 51% of attacks aimed at specific individuals or organizations. In 2008, exploits of those three Microsoft Office applications made up 71% of all targeted attacks.

Word, Excel and PowerPoint accounted for only 39% of all attacks so far this year, F-Secure said.

Targeted attacks can be disastrous to victimized companies and organizations. Google, for instance, was one of scores of Western corporations hit late last year and early this year by targeted attacks thought to originate from China . In Google's case, the attacks, which exploited a then-unpatched bug in Internet Explorer 6 (IE6), made off with company secrets. Intel was also attacked in January, but the chip maker has denied any connection between what hit its network and the Google-China attacks.

Earlier this week, the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) said that hackers stole more than $120 million in just three months from small businesses' banking accounts, in some cases using malware carried by targeted attacks.

Adobe said it wasn't surprised at F-Secure's data. "Given the relative ubiquity and cross-platform reach of many of our products, Adobe has attracted -- and will likely continue to attract -- increasing attention from attackers," said spokeswoman Wiebke Lips in an e-mail.

She also urged users to update to the newest versions of Reader and other Adobe products. "The majority of attacks we are seeing are exploiting software installations that are not up-to-date on the latest security updates," she said.

F-Secure and Microsoft echoed Lips' recommendation, as both have discovered in-the-wild attacks exploiting a vulnerability Adobe patched less than a month ago.

On Feb. 16, Adobe issued an emergency update for Reader and Acrobat to patch a pair of flaws, including one tagged as CVE-2010-0188 in the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) database. Microsoft reported that bug to Adobe via its Microsoft Vulnerability Research Program (MSVR), where the company's security researchers submit flaws they find in third-party software to the programs' makers.

F-Secure's claim that Reader leads the exploit pack isn't the first time that a security company has awarded Adobe dubious honors. Last month, ScanSafe of San Bruno, Calif. said that malicious PDF files comprised 80% of all exploits at the end of last year.

The most up-to-date editions of Adobe Reader, 9.3.1 and 8.2.1, can be downloaded using links on Adobe's security site .

Online Computer Scan

2010-03-17T13:53:00.003+02:00

If you are apprehensive regarding the competence of your current anti-virus software, do not fret. You can replace it with another one as long as you want but eventually you will grow tired of choosing which is really reliable. With that said, what would be a good alternative?

Online scanning has been around and while many don’t trust them, at least there is a separate device that can thoroughly check your computer and see if there are issues as far as viruses and malware is concerned. For sure, you will be getting reports on which files may need scrutiny. There will be definitely some high risk files, normally found in the cookies or temporary Internet folder, that can be detected.

Now comes the hard part. When they detect these malicious files, they can clean it as well. But before that happens, you have to pay them a hefty sum to do it. The scanning part is the freebie, it is the cleaning that will really cost you.

It is a familiar site we see from trialware software. Before you can enjoy the full protection, you have to register and pay for it. The same is the concept of online scanning services. Panda Software, McAfee, BitDefender and so on have been offering this service and they are surely better and safer.

Accuracy is not a problem. You can even see for yourself by basing the performance after it has been cleaned. You may be surprised to find that your computer operates faster than before.
