Ok lets straight to the point, one of my favorite tools in removing Malwares & Computer Bacterias!!!.


1. ComboFix


Introduction

ComboFix is a program, created by sUBs, that scans your computer for known malware, and when found, attempts to clean these infections automatically. In addition to being able to remove a large amount of the most common and current malware, ComboFix also displays a log when it is finished that contains a great deal of information that an experienced helper can use to diagnose, retrieve samples of, and remove infections that are not automatically removed.

Due to the power of this tool it is strongly advised that you do not attempt to act upon any of the information displayed by ComboFix without supervision from someone who has been properly trained. If you do so, it may lead to problems with the normal functionality of your computer.

More info in setup installation you can go here

How can I unlock my iPod nano if I forgot the "Screen Lock" code?

How can I unlock my iPod nano if I forgot the "Screen Lock" code?
"Screen Lock" is provided by the iPod nano, iPod (5G), and subsequently released iPod models. Earlier iPods do not offer this feature.
Screen Lock only locks users out of the user interface. It does not encrypt data on your iPod. For example, if you use Screen Lock and then connect your iPod to a computer, you'll be able to manage music on your iPod with iTunes and access all data on it in disk mode (contacts, notes, and any other files you have stored on the iPod).

Removing Ipod lock has two different ways. First one is Restoring your Ipod Software using itunes or just doing a little trick using your primary computer.

Option 1:

1. Connect your Ipod to your computer.
2. Click on Tools/Folder Option/View/ Check the “Show Hidden Files”
3. Select the Ipod Drive/and Find the filename like "_locked"” inside your Ipod.
4. Delete that file and Disconnect your Ipod from your computer.

If you can't unlock your iPod and you don't have access to the primary computer, your only option is to restore the iPod, which will erase all music and data. Make sure you have the latest Itune software which can be found here.

Option 2:
1. Connect your Ipod to your computer, on the Itunes main Menu Click on Restore Ipod.
2. Restore your iPod. Warning: The restore process cannot be undone. All of your songs and files will be deleted. Always make a backup of your important data.
3. Connect your iPod to the computer that you want to be the primary computer.
4. Open iTunes and synchronize.

How to Connect Smartbro on Ubuntu?

This morning I received a call from a customer asking me if I could help him connect his Internet Connection to his computer, I ask him what type of Operating System you are using? and He answer me "actually i'm not sure about it but its something different from Windows XP". It comes on my mind a puzzle "If his not using WinXP, what OS could it be?" I put a scheduled on him at 4:00pm in the afternoon.

Lastly when I arrived I found out that he is using Ubuntu OS from Linux, actually I don't have any idea what to do about this kind of Operating System, and now I'm searching over the internet how to resolved this issue. Because according to his statement, after the Lightning Shock happened last week his internet break's down and he can't connect anymore. He asked helped from the Customer Support in Smartbro but until now there is no positive response from them.

Since he is expecting me to do the job, now I'm trying to find some answer. Looks like I need to study more about Ubuntu this time so that it will not give me too much headache. Further solution maybe posted when I found it.
