MySpace is doing it again.
Displaying Virus infected ADs, that are now taking advantage of a new security Hole on your computer.

If you see an AD like this, and the Active X Warning…
DO NOT CLICK ON IT.

You Must close Internet Explorer using the TASK MANAGER.
If you were doing something important..well, YOU ARE FUCKED!, just close Internet Explorer the HARD way.

Look at the Images.

IF YOU SEE THIS AD and this Messages..

CLOSE IE like THIS

1- Open TASK MANAGER by pressing CTRL, ALT and DELETE on your keyboard, all at the same time.

Is your Computer a Zombie?

In “Attack of the Zombie Computers Is Growing Threat”, John Markoff expresses his concern about how hackers and spammers are turning the average computer into a powerful slave or zombie computers used to launch massive spam emails and commit cyber crimes. How is this possible?

With technology getting better and more complex by the minute, hackers and spammers are taking advantage of it to create powerful tools or viruses to infect computers around the world, turning the infected computers into a “Zombie Army” called Botnets. Botnets are responsible for the recent growth of spam email, data theft. “It’s the perfect crime, both low-risk and high-profit,” said Gadi Evron, a computer security researcher for an Israeli-based firm, Beyond Security. Botnets take advantage of bugs found on Windows based computers. Botnets are written by computer code writers predominantly from Europe, and are later distributed in many ways such as email, user downloads, and pirated software and drive-by downloads. Once the program is installed on an internet connected computer, the computers can be remotely controlled through a communications system called Internet Relay Chat.

As a computer technician, I’ve experienced an infection from a botnet while testing one of my computers for security breaches. The particular file that infected my computer was set up to use Outlook Express to send massive spam email to thousands of random addresses. Once the attack began, I was practically spammed with thousands of emails not making it to their target due to spam filters or simply the addresses not being found.

The success of turning computers into zombies rests in the fact that Windows based computers hold the greatest market share among Operating Systems (NetApplications, 2007). Some people argue that this would be solved by changing to another Operating System; however, this will only be a temporary resolution if everyone decided to change systems out of rampage. If you were a virus writer, what operating system should you make a target? The most used system or the less used system?

Most computer users, who are currently using infected computers, do not even know they are infected due to lack of security. The malicious software being redefined by “black hat” programmers makes it more difficult to detect such infections. What can be done to prevent this from happening to you? Make sure you are protecting your computer with the latest antivirus application, firewall and keep them up-to-date.

Forced to take Advanced Math Classes…

I am pretty sure it is helpful, to 0.1% of the Human Population..

Not everyone needs this much Math and I am a strong believer that certain Math Subjects should be optional and According to the field of study.

I am not studying to be the next Einstein or an astronomer or a matemathician or accountant or Engineering..etc..

I know we all need math. We sure do.

But in Reality… Unless I am planning to Graph my Pubic Hair and find the x intercept of my Genitals to the Y intercept of a Womans Genitals and find the Quadratic Equation to find how many children I will equate, and then use the Substitution and Elimination method to find the Vertex of my Childrens’ Gender…

WHY DA FUCK AM I FORCED TO LEARN CRAP I DO NOT NEED OR EVEN RELATE TO MY FIELD OF STUDY !! !!!!

First Blog

Well, Hello there.
This will be my first ever blog at my website.
Most of my blogs were posted at MySpace and I had them deleted overtime.

Here I will be posting events of my regular day, so on and so forth.
