2 Antivirus Programs are NOT better than 1 Antivirus

How many Antivirus program do you have in your system now?
1 = Good, keep Update it frequently, especially its Virus Database.
2 = Better choose and delete One of them soon!
3 = Oh my, quickly stop and get rid 2 of them if you want to safe your PC!
4 & more = Nothing to say. :|

That's somehow the way I react to anyone that have more than one antivirus programs in their system. Many people still think that 2 antivirus programs mean Double Protection which is better. But No, it's NOT.

Why 2 Antivirus Programs are not better than 1?

Before answering that question. Did you ever think what will happen,
if you got yourself 2 bodyguard from 2 different company? (especially if those 2 companies always compete each other.)
They will eventually fight to protect their customer. In this case, protecting your PC system from viruses. They could not just team up to do their job, at the very least they will double check on everything, every suspicious person, which will make everything takes time Longer. Wasting your Time, Money, and Energy to keep them = NOT EFFECTIVE.

The same thing apply for antivirus programs.
If you got 2 Antivirus programs, they will always fight to protect your PC System from viruses.
HOW? By scanning every files, every application, every services, every connection, everything even the other Antivirus as well Together and that will definitely make everything almost TWICE longer to finish.

It's been a long time since I got 2 Antivirus programs in my PC, but it's just fine.

Yes, it's just fine for now.
But realize it or not, there are some HIDDEN DISADVANTAGES when you use more than 1 antivirus program :
- you will feel your PC system running SLOWER than it should. That happen because:
--- those Antivirus programs scan everything Twice, Once with Antivirus A and Once with Antivirus B. It get worse if those Antivirus blocking each other because the file they want to scan is being scanned/accessed by other Antivirus.
--- they use more RAM than 1 Antivirus
- by accessed twice, your PC System will be more Easily gets ERRORS, Fragments, Bad sectors, cross-linked files, Freeze, Hang, BSOD, etc.
- and worse, by Antivirus blocking other Antivirus, your PC will become more VULNERABLE.

So what's the best thing to do with those Antivirus?

Delete 1 and leave only 1 Antivirus programs that you think protect your PC the most. And the most IMPORTANT thing is to UPDATE its Virus Database frequently.

It's USELESS, if you have 2 or more Antivirus programs but never update it.
It's the BEST, if you have 1 Antivirus program that you update daily.

Like all of us know, New viruses are made everyday every time.
Like us who need to know latest news every time,
Antivirus also need to learn and know those New viruses too to protect our PC. Antivirus learn by updating its Virus Database.

Simply having 1 Antivirus program installed in your Operating System and Update it daily is the BEST thing to protect your system.

Hope it helps you understand why 1 Antivirus program is BETTER than 2 Antivirus programs to protect your system from viruses. :)

[Tutorial]Recovering ASUS 1015PEM eeePC System with Embedded Windows 7

Years, yeah you could say it's been years since my last post. I admit it myself. :( I don't know where I'm going or doing. But I just get more busy these time on Senior High School class. So that's why I didn't post anything here that long. Anyway, I'm going to share a little but very useful tutorial for you who are using Asus eeePC.

Step by Step Recovering Asus 1015 PEM eeePC System with embedded windows 7 Starter

Today I got another work with an ASUS eeepc 1015 PEM Clam shell design from my school teacher. The eeePC got virus in the system and can't be recovered anymore, so I suggest him to re-install the fresh Windows. But when I asked him about the the recovery disc/windows 7 Starter disc, he said that there are no any disc in the package when he bought it. He just show me with some applications installer that stored in the D: drive, but that's not even driver or the image of windows 7 starter disc.

Silly me, I asked him to re-check it again at home. But nothing, and then I asked him to call to the seller. and the seller said it's there, inside the netbook..
Huh?!
I get myself to searching for what is inside this netbook package on Google. Some said there are CD, some not.. =="

Then I get myself to Google about video review on unboxing the eeePC ASUS 1015PEM and found out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gXAyhDcoIw.

From that video I found out How to boot into the embedded Operating System installer (by pressing F9 when starting the netbook), actually I'd read about it somewhere before but I forgot. :hammers.

Let's get back to the business:
1.Start your eeePC
2.press F9,
3.Fail! I got myself into windows 7 boot manager.

I tried each Function key on the boot (F) n got F2 to enter the BIOS. By pressing F2 on boot, the Bios logo screen will show up and there are some options came up either, like the F9 the recovery option. Bingo!

So the right steps should be:
1. Start your eeePC
2. press F2, wait few seconds until the BIOS logo shown,
3. then press F9, the screen should be showing "Windows is loading files . . ."
Now it's going load the recovery system/windows 7 starter,
5. choose English n hit the arrow
6. press Recovery
The system will start the process to install fresh windows 7 to you ASUS 1015PEM eeePC, so just follow the next steps shown. It's just like the usual windows 7 installation.

The screenshot will be updated later :)

CAUTION!
It will delete all data in partition C:, but the D: partition itself is safe in my experience. But to be sure, I backuped all files in D: to another media just in case. :D

Hope this simple tutorial helps answer your question ^.^ :

RE-Learn a 3D Program from 3DsMax to Blender

Hi everyone..

Just sharing something that I just did. Since 4th year Junior High School I learned Modelling n Animating with 3D Studio Max, because I want to be someone that can make cartoon just like in the TV. And now there were already some examples of I can do with 3Ds Max.
Just like:
1.X Dance ~ 3D Animation by 15years old Kid
2.[3D]2nd 3D Short Animation by 16th years old boy
3.and last project of making a Game Level of my house: [EXP]MISSION ACCOMPLISHED, Make a Game Level of My House Finished before 2009 End ^^

Now after I made agame level with Cryengine, I found an obstacle that make me a little disappointed. It's because the CryEngine can't make a Stand Alone Engine for the Game Level we made, instead we must use CryEngine to load our game level. I learned this game level making because found a simple walkthrough of a room, which packed under 1MB size and that make us easier to transfer it to another computer. Then I Tried CryEngine because can't find the tutorial about that program.

But Not Now, it's 2010, I Re-Search the Tutorial over the internet, found someone asking in the forum that was in a CERTAINLY SAME SITUATION as me, that is my way to find some Tutorials. And I Re-Learn the New 3D Program named BLENDER from Zero. ^^

OK.. I had been searching for resources, articles, tutorials, and everything about making a simple Walkthrough with Blender for a long time. But in these 2 last weeks I found 9 Pages of Blender Tutorial that was very helpful. Finally today, maybe I found the PRECIOUS Thread that someone that have the SAME SITUATION which contain Tutorials to make a walkthrough. He/She really have the same situation as mine, so take a look. ^^ http://forum.nystic.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=9854.

Actually.. Since I bought Ebooks Collection of CHIP MAGAZINEs & found a Blender walkthrough sample, I really interested to make it, but I can't find Tutorial bout it anywhere. I just tried to start the Blender from the CD, and I blind, because I only learned a 3D Program (3D Studio Max) that time.

Until 2 days ago, I Re-Learn Blender from Zero. I really didn't know anything about using blender until now. But I think I can and I want to make that walkthrough as I found the Tutorials. I think maybe It will be useful for some people, so try ==> http://www.tutorialsforblender3d.com/GameDoc/Movement/Movement_Script_1.html
There I found step-by-step tutorial of making a walkthrough using movement script in Blender.

Tomorrow I will try to find export Script from 3Ds Max to Blender, because I designed My house with 3D Studio Max and not Blender.

Then, I will need to learn and get used to Blender the Freeware, Powerful, and simply 3D Program from Zero. Along with this, I think it's a good opportunity to Learn Blender and Make a walkthrough with it. As many 3D Artists in Indonesian was using 3D Freeware Blender and publish their cartoon/animations to TV Station and Advertising.

AND MAYBE! The Best Opportunity is to get along with them working as 3D Artists.. ^^

Hope Me Luck, OK! ^.^
And Thanks for Reading, I'm just sharing my Experience these weeks, Next time will be Tips and Tricks. ~.^

UltraSurf auto-Proxy ~ Easily Surf any Blocked Website Safely & Anonymously

Hello all,
New things here, but I got it from my friend quite a long time ago.
It's UltraSurf, an Auto-Proxy aplication that make you ANONYMOUS on the Internet right away.

SUMMARY With UltraSurf you can browse any website that blocked your IP address or visitor from your country, just like using proxy but easier.

Actually UltraSurf will connect you to the UltraSurf Proxy Server and HIDE your real IP Address. This way you are ANONYMOUS on the net and that make you have more "Privacy, Security and Freedom" as Ultrasurf said. If you are in Anonymous mode, no one will really know where are you from and somekind like that.

Why I call it Auto-Proxy?

It's because, we DON'T need to search any Proxy server IPs in the net again,
and that's mean we're ONE STEP FASTER to be ANONYMOUS ^.^

Why we need to be ANONYMOUS?
I'm not always used to be anonymous all the time too. But I use it sometimes.

"UltraSurf is a free software which enables users inside countries with heavy Internet censorship to visit any public web sites in the world safely and freely. Users in countries without internet censorship also use it to protect their internet privacy and security." from UltraSurf.

for example
if a website blocked your IPs or country for some reason. You can use another country PROXY IP addresses to access that website, then the website will identify you as a Visitor from that Proxy IP addresses location.
UltraSurf is the same as if we are using Proxy IP Address.

How to use UltraSurf?
1. Download the tiny application, current ver 9.5 (only 420kb)
==> http://www.ultrareach.com/
2. Extract it
3. Run it, it will connect you automatically and Open your IE browser.
Then you can browse the net Freely now ^.^

Hope it useful.

Opera Link ~ Synchronize your Opera Anywhere

Hi all,
sorry for my delayed post here, today I'm going to introduce the last features I added at my Browser. Opera Link.

"Ever wondering, 'how to sync your Opera from anywhere?'"
"Yes? continue reading then ^.^"

Yesterday I'm thinking how to sync my Primary Browser(Opera) between my PC and Notebook. And then I found, 'Opera Link'. I found it can sync out Opera everywhere and anywhere.

You can also access your synchronized data via browser without sync it if you want.
You can access your Notes, Bookmarks, and Speed Dials configuration from "Opera Link Website"

Is Opera Link safe?
I also wondering that, but as far you don't share your account, it will be safe.

How to synchronize your Opera??
Before we start, you will need:
1. an Opera Account, SIMPLE REGISTER at ===>>> http://my.opera.com/community/signup/
2. Newer Opera version, Opera 9.20 doesn't support 'Opera Link'

Now follow these steps:
1. Open ur Opera Browser
2. go to 'File', and click 'Synchronize Opera'
3. Type in your username and password, and press 'Login'
4. Opera will connect and sync the data to your account.
5. Sync Status can be seen at the bottom of browser.

But on the way using this feature, I found 2 little problems:
1. It's doesn't supported on the older Opera,
~~~~~My Notebook was using Opera 9.20, and it didn't support Opera Link,
just upgrade to current newest version Opera 9.64.

2. My ISP has some connection problem with 'Opera Link' server
~~~~~I'm using 2 ISP with HSDPA modem & wireless broadband. On the wireless broadband ISP, I can't Sync anything on the first time.
However after I try proxy for the First sync, the next sync no need proxy anymore^.^
So Just try proxy ur HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP connection if you can't sync it!
And also use a good Proxy IP, no need to be so anonymous.

To ACCESS your DATAs online, go to ==> http://www.opera.com/link/

Windows 7 RC1 can be Publicly Download Today!

Hello all,

The replacement for Windows Vista is Windows 7.. Many improvement and changes in Windows 7, but also many features taken from Windows Vista.. Myself didn't had the opportunity on Win 7 Beta version, but today I'm gonna download Windows 7 RC 1..

Even this'is the first day it can be publicly downloaded, me myself still keep stucked loading the download page.. I'm not sure is it because the server overloaded or my bad internet connection..
But I'm gonna keep on trying download and will review it with my own PC later..

What u need to know??
This is pre-release software, so please read the following to get an idea of the risks and key things you need to know before you try the RC.

~You don't need to rush to get the RC. The RC will be available at least through July 2009 and we're not limiting the number of product keys, so you have plenty of time. (July?? still many time, and there's still possibility for time extention.)

~Watch the calendar. The RC will expire on June 1, 2010. Starting on March 1, 2010, your PC will begin shutting down every two hours. Windows will notify you two weeks before the bi-hourly shutdowns start. To avoid interruption, you’ll need to install a non-expired version of Windows before March 1, 2010. You’ll also need to install the programs and data that you want to use. (What can we say, it's RC.. Not for forever use)

~Protect your PC and data with BackUp. Be sure to back up your data and please don't test the RC on your primary home or business PC.(Important this version is for TESTING Purpose only)

~Installation: You can install the Windows 7 RC on a PC running Windows Vista without backing up the PC—but we encourage you to make a backup for safe keeping. If you’re running Windows XP or the Windows 7 Beta, you’ll need to backup your data, then do a clean installation of the RC, then reinstall your applications and restore your data. If you need to do a backup, please see How to back up your PC for more details and a suggestion for how to backup a PC running Windows 7 Beta or Windows Vista.
(Better get an unused HDD to try this windows, just in case if something happen.. Right?)

Here's what you need to have:
~Internet access (to download Windows 7 RC and get updates)
~A PC with these system requirements:
~~minimum 1 GHz or faster 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) processor
~~1 GB RAM (32-bit) / 2 GB RAM (64-bit)

Hello all, Today is Christmas, but I'm not going anywhere. So I'm going to give a tips here.

In Indonesia, where I used to live now. Most of virus come from Autorun Flashdrive / Flashdisk / Pendrive. And mostly spread from infected college computers.

I did tell you tips about : HOW TO prevent VIRUS to AUTORUN from flashdrive by Disabling Autoplay. But it's still autorun when we double-click the drive.

So we need a better trick to patch that weakness. We are going to need Ninja Pendisk Freeware. Which will AUTOMATICALLY delete Autorun Virus from Flashdrive/pendrive/Flashdisk.

"Ninja is the freeware zero-configuration program designed for guarding computers against viruses transmitted by USB pendisks.

To keep things simple, ninja is fully portable, self-contained and requires no installation.
Besides removing known virulent files, this tool will also immunize your pendisk and create a folder called autorun.inf with special protection permissions to protect your pendisk from being infected again when plugged on contaminated computers."

Follow these steps:
1.Go to NunoBrito.eu/ninja to Download Ninja Pendisk or click here to download!
2.Run it once downloaded, keep ur internet connection online.
Ninja will try to download configuration file which will automatically updated when connected to internet.
3.You will see a file named "ninja.txt" comes up, that's an update and setting of Ninja Pendisk. Change the setting if you want ^^.
4.Right-click on Ninja in taskbar, and activate disable autoplay.
5.Plug in your Flashdrive, a dialog pop-up displaying the processes of Virus Deletion and Immunize your Flash Drive.

FYI : It support XP & Vista; This tricks gonna prevent most common virus using autorun, but don't let your guard down in Internet and other things.
