Avoid spam E-Mail with Spamihilator 0.9.9.44

2009-01-02T12:52:00.001+07:00

Spam E-mail is a problem almost every user faces. There are many anti spam applications around but most of these are bulky, resource consuming or are ineffective at catching spam. Spamihilator is a lightweight but effective tool to combat junk E-mail which I've been using with good results. It runs in the background and supports a number of E-Mail clients including Outlook, Thunderbird and Eudora.

One of the best things about Spamihilator is it’s ‘learning’ mail filter. The more you use this application, the more good it will become at catching spam. Check it out.

Developer Description

Spamihilator works between your E-Mail client and the Internet and examines every incoming E-Mail. Useless spam mails (Junk) will be filtered out. This process runs completely in the background. The new Learning Filter (Bayesian Filter) uses the rules of Thomas Bayes (English mathematician, 18th century) and calculates a certain Spam-Probability for every E-Mail. You can train this filter! So it will know your messages even better than you. Hence the recognition rate will continuously increase. In addition Spamihilator uses a Word-Filter, that searches messages for known keywords. Of course, Spamihilator supports Plugins. These useful additional filters protect your system against annoying spam mails. The program works with almost every E-Mail client, such as Outlook 2000/XP/2003/Express, Eudora, Mozilla, Netscape, IncrediMail, Pegasus Mail, Phoenix Mail, Opera, etc...

Download

Spamihilator is freeware. It’s only around 2MB in file size so even dial up or low bandwidth users should have no problem downloading this one.

A new version of popular disk Defragmentation software Diskeeper has been released.

PC Tools ThreatFire Pro 4.0.0.8 – Block known and unknown malware threats

2008-11-19T16:09:00.001+07:00

PC-Tools is best known for their registry optimization software Registry Mechanic. Their latest software release titled ThreatFire, is not a system optimizer of any kind but an anti malware application. Why I thought of posting about ThreatFire is because it uses a rather nontraditional way of malware blocking. As you may know, most anti virus and anti spyware applications rely on virus definition files to match virus like code in files and detect threats. This is good but if you fail to update your Anti-Virus software regularly or if your anti virus software vendor does not provide regular updates, you could be risking yourself to zero day attacks and new virus outbreaks.

This is where ThreatFire comes in. It does not rely entirely on virus definitions to block malware. It monitors your system for virus like behavior to detect and block virus like or suspicious activity (aka behavioral blocking). I have not actually used this software extensively so I can’t really speak of the effectiveness. But there is a good review of it on PC MAgazine.

Developer Description

Consumers spend over a billion dollars a year on security software to keep their PCs safe. Every month they spend countless hours configuring and updating their software. And yet every week millions of users are infected by new threats that their traditional antivirus does not stop.

Why? Traditional antivirus solutions cannot protect you until after they've discovered a new threat and produced a signature to counter it.

ThreatFire is different. It does not rely on signatures, but instead constantly analyzes your computer's behavior to detect and block any malicious activity. ThreatFire protects immediately so you know your PC and your valuable data is always secure.

Features
Persistent zero-day threat protection made easy for everyone - even novice users!
Runs in background without impacting system performance.
Automatic updates run silently in the background so ThreatFire is always up-to-date.
NEW! System Activity Monitor displays detailed data on all running processes and allows you to terminate any process on demand. Highest level of out-of-the-box accuracy. No need to configure baffling, technical security settings: just turn ThreatFire on and start blocking malware.
Includes PC Tools AntiVirus's on-demand AV scanner, giving you added peace of mind so you can quickly and easily scan your PC for known threats.
Malware quarantine and removal, rootkit and antivirus scanner, advanced custom rules settings and more!
Perpetually ready for the next malware outbreak - detects malware by watching for malicious behaviors.
Protects against both known and zero-day viruses, worms, trojans, buffer overflows, rootkits and even some spyware.
Patent-pending ActiveDefense technology intelligently scans and analyzes computer processes to detect and block any malicious activity - without false positives!
NEW! Enhanced user interface elements provide more technical details on alerts and interactive reports in ThreatFire's main control panel.
Works alongside most other security programs - there is no need to uninstall your antivirus, anti-spyware, firewall or other security program before installing ThreatFire.

The Ratio Of Invalid Clicks

2008-10-20T10:42:00.002+07:00

According to my experience as a publisher, I will tell you about how to avoid getting banned by google because of invalid click. This is not about how to play trick on Google Adsense, but it can give us a new knowledge about The technic of Google Robot deciding whether it is invalid click or not.As we know that Google will inactive your Google Adsense if you click your own ads by accident or not (except you send a message to Google team to tell them that you accidentally made invalid click). Google Adsense usually use a kind of program or robot to find out the validity of a click. It is almost never done by human due to the great number of publisher.The most important factor that cause an account banned by Google is the ratio between impression and cilcks. It is must not more than about 30%. If the ratio exceed it (40%, 50%), Google consider it as invalid clicks. What if you never click your ads, but the ratio is still about 30%. The way out is you have to check your adsense account to check the daily ratio and take control it.

What is ADSENSE

2008-10-20T10:19:00.004+07:00

In short, the AdSense ad's service is owned by Google, where the site owners can install the ads in they site and get additional revenue. I ad to appear various kinds, can be text, pictures, even video, but was not sure, all using the contextual system (contextual), where the ad will be relevant or appropriate to the content of the page where the ad is placed. Consider the following example image:

All the ads are stored on Google's own servers, so we do not need to provide special space in our server for AdSense, or upload files certain. Simply insert the JavaScript code given on the site's pages we only have we can enjoy the presence of AdSense ads on our site.

How will we get the money?

As mentioned above, with a pair AdSense ads on their sites, site owners have the opportunity to get additional revenue. How?

Not difficult. I need you, as the owner of the site, to do is wait (and pray), so there's visitors to click the ads. Yes, simply by clicking on it, you automatically, as the AdSense publisher, will get the money part of it's value is calculated from the amount I bid has been determined by the advertisers (Advertisers). Although there are other factor's influence, in general, the publisher is acquired 20% of the value of the bid.

Once you enroll in Google's AdSense and accepted, you will gain access to the Member Area Google AdSense. In addition to the tool available for downloading generate ad code required, there is also a page Report's earnings include your income with the number of clicks I found, the number of display ads, and other important info. Consider the following picture:

How do I pay? Payment will be made 30 days after your total income in one month reached at least $ 100. So when in February this you get $ 100, then your earnings will be submitted at the end of March. For Indonesia, the payment will be sent in the form of a check and you can choose to use the postal service or DHL (Express Delivery) in the delivery process.

How Potential incomes?

Unlimited! Many AdSense publishers have to obtain thousands of dollars and even tens of thousands per month. In Indonesia alone, the AdSense publisher with thousands of dollars per month is not the case contraption again..

Vuze 4.0 Released – Download Here

2008-10-17T09:55:00.002+07:00

Version 4 of the popular BItTorrent client Vuze (Formerly Azureuz), is here. It’s a major upgrade over existing v3.1.1.0 builds and news features such as a completely revamped UI, torrent search feature which supports private trackers, subscriptions, memory optimizations and more. Personally, I’m no fan of all these fancy features and what I do the moment I install Azureuz/Vuze is switching to the classic UI. Fortunately version 4 still retains the support for classic UI so it should not prevent you from upgrading even if you didn’t like the new interface and Vuze network integration.

McAfee VirusScan Enterprise 8.7i

2008-10-15T12:08:00.001+07:00

If I ever liked a McAfee product, that was their VirusScan Enterprise (VSE) series of Anti Virus software. Although the Enterprise series is designed with large corporate and networks in mind, I used VSE 8.5i for over an year on my desktop PC at home. First thing I liked about VSE is it’s bloat free interface and the fact that it did not come with crapware such as McAfee Security center (which got installed by default with other fancy McAfee home edition products). Second, VSE’s memory resident scanner (called activeshield) did not consume half my RAM in real time protection. Finally, VSE updated like a charm; I did not need to bother with keys getting blacklisted, update servers going offline or update servers blocking client access (nod32 anyone?).

That being said, McAfee’s detection engine seemed to miss a few viruses here and there as of late. For example it did seem to miss that pesky amvo.exe virus which finally forced me to switch to Kaspersky Anti-Virus. Apart from several rare misses McAfee VirusScan Enterprise is still a good AV product. If you are a fan of McAfee products, this is definitely one software that’s worth checking out.

Developer Description

McAfee VirusScan Enterprise is an innovative technology for PCs and servers. It proactively stops and removes malicious software, extends coverage against new security risks, and reduces the cost of responding to outbreaks. Enterprises cannot afford to wait for every threat to be identified and a signature file to be released. The time between attack and subsequent identification is critical, and the shorter, the better. It's better yet if your protection technology identifies new, unknown threats.

Features:

Cover all the bases
Block a broad range of viruses and malicious code—even those hidden in compressed files; find new, unknown viruses with advanced heuristics and generic detection
Defend against threats that target Microsoft
Protect against exploits targeted at Microsoft applications and services—especially for Microsoft Windows OS services, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Outlook, and SQL server
Curb outbreak damage
Limit outbreak damage, even before DAT files are issued; close ports, monitor applications and email engines, block files and directories, and trace and block infection sources
Scans memory for malicious code
Detect threats that write to memory rather than disk, such as CodeRed and SQLSlammer
Protect email programs
Detect and scour viruses in Microsoft Outlook and Lotus Notes—including HTML text and attachments
Keep script-type threats at bay
Prevent threats that exploit JavaScript or Visual Basic from executing
Optimize updating for remote systems
Tailor field updates to physical locations and connection speeds: resume updating after a broken connection is re-established
Lock down files
Keep VirusScan Enterprise files from being altered with enhanced access protection rules
Advanced rootkit detection
Scan system memory for installed rootkits, hidden processes, and other concealed malicious code

Hiren’s BootCD 9.6 + Keyboard Patch

2008-10-15T12:04:00.003+07:00

Hiren’s BootCD is a bootable ISO image which contains over 100 diagnostics utilities (see list below). You can burn the ISO to a CD and boot up your computer with it to diagnose hardware and software problems your may encounter on your PC.Since it’s bootable, it doesn't matter if you can get Windows (or other OS) to boot up or not. The set of utilities this app integrated is astounding; from file recovery tools to partition managers, Hiren’s BootCD seem to have an utility to diagnose and repair every possible problem you can imagine happen to a computer.

As you may have noted, the title says something about a keyboard patch. Well it allows you to patch the ISO image so that it supports the keyboard layout you are using. This feature will be useful to people who use keyboard layouts other than US Keyboard (You don’t want to mix up the keys for ‘disk check’ and ‘destroy-all-partitions’ now do you?).

Also note that even if Hiren’s BootCD is free sofrware, some of the appz it contains may be pirated copies. Use at your own risk.

ESET NOD32 Antivirus 2.70 build 39

2007-09-17T08:30:00.001+07:00

Ever since this blog's launch, we've been recommending users to use Mcafee VirusScan Enterprise as their primary security software. But time has now come to change that. There is a new king of he hill; NOD32 from ESET.

First of all, let us justify our decision to recommend NOD32 over Mcafee VirusScan Enterprise (VSE):

1. Since the introduction of Mcafee 5000.194 scan engine, ActiveShield service may sometimes consume up to 45MB of physical memory, making it a resource hog. NOD32 on the other hand is very light on system resources and features faster scan times. NOD32 Resident scanner wont consume more than 20MB of RAM most of the time.

2. NOD32 gets access to new virus signature files faster than Mcafee. Its average threat response time has been hovering over the 2 hour mark for a long time (Source: CNET).

3. NOD32 features an out-of-this-world heuristics detection engine. This allows the scanner to stop viruses even before signature files are released.

Now let's have a detailed look on NOD32.

NOD32 Antivirus System provides well balanced, state-of-the-art protection against threats endangering your PC and enterprise systems running various platforms from Microsoft Windows 95 / 98 / ME / NT / 2000 / 2003 / XP / Vista, through a number of UNIX/Linux, Novell, MS DOS operating systems to Microsoft Exchange Server, Lotus Domino and other mail servers.
Users of Microsoft® Windows® can experience the power and elegance of NOD32's ThreatSense Technology with ease and comfort. NOD32's single optimized engine offers the best protection from viruses, spyware, adware, phishing attacks, and more. Keep tomorrow's threats at bay with NOD32 proactive detection technology. And it has the smallest footprint and fastest performance - bar none.
The fourth generation of the NOD32 Antivirus System features a fully integrated software suite characterized by an unprecedented detection track record, the fastest scanning rates and extremely low utilization of system resources. NOD32's detection efficiency combined with 2-50 times faster hard disk scanning rate earned the product many international prestigious awards.

Features

* ThreatSense™ technology — a single optimized anti-threat engine for analyzing code to identify malicious behavior, such as viruses, spyware, adware, phishing and more
* Unprecedented heuristic analysis capable of discovering new malware threats as they emerge
* Powerful virtual PC emulation technology enables unpacking and decryption of all types of archives and run-time packing
* Able to clean active malware running in memory
* Protects at multiple infiltration points, including HTTP, POP3, SMTP and all local and removable media
* Removes infections from files that are locked for writing (e.g., loaded DLL file)
* Prevents infected files from being opened and executed, and warns on creation of infected files
* Automatic execution on system startup
* Supports multiple Terminal Server environments
* Supports scanning of mapped network disks

Once NOD32 is installed and cracked (follow instructions exactly as mentioned in Rule's post or the crack wont work) , do not let NOD32 detect the nod32fix 2.2.exe or modded registry entry files. If the file is detected, NOD32 will revert to 30 day trial ! Smart eh?

To effectively hide the patch, Disable AMON (AMON is the NOD32 memory resident scanner which scans in background) immediately following the first reboot after installation + cracking.

Navigate to installation folder (Default : C:\Program files\ESET)and delete the file
nod32fix.reg.

Then navigate to the downloaded source (Program setup + Fix).
Zip the contents of the folder. Then RAR the zip file.

Delete the folder and the .zip file (not the RAR file you just created).

Now re-enable AMON.

You can move the RAR file to your backup or store or whatever and keep it for later use.

Nero 8 Ultra Edition 8.0.3

2007-09-17T08:22:00.000+07:00

Nero 8 was due to be released later this month but thanks to P2P uploader 03tibro it's already out there on various P2P sites as well as on UseNet. But dont be so exited about Nero 8 because there are many signs which suggest that it's overhyped bloatware. The setup itself is 950MB (yes it's like installing an OS) and you'll find many unwanted gizmos such as indexing services embedded into it. Use a custom install and leave out the items which you dont need or wait for a Lite edition to come out.
Nero 8 gives you freedom when it comes to creating and editing your audio, video, and photo files. Edit vacation videos in High Definition (HD), create dynamic slide shows from family photos, and make a cool MP mix to take on the go. With a broad range of professional tools, innovative features, and cutting-edge technology, Nero 8 helps you get the most out of your audio, video, and photo files.

New in Version 8

Spybot Search and Destroy 1.5.1

2007-09-17T07:59:00.000+07:00

Spybot - Search & Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S&D is free, so there's no harm giving it a try to see if something has invaded your computer.
