• cracked glass image with transparency (alpha) for overlay?

  All knowledge of a file PNG image good glass cracked including transparency (alpha) is I could use?

  The idea is that it could be placed above other images so you could still see the pictures back, but it would be like they are behind the cracked glass.

  Otherwise, if not directly, there are images that match this requirement, so how would easily transform a picture of glass cracked an alpha/transparency?

  1. Desaturate the layer of glass.

  2. make two copies of the glass layer, desaturated. Disable all three eye visibility for these layers in the layers palette.

  3. turn on the first glass desaturated layer by clicking on the eye in the layers palette. First glass desaturated layer place (an image directly above) in blend mode screen. 100% opacity. If the glass has a hole, use a layer mask or erase to drill a hole in the desaturated layer. The levels command to set up the glass so to taste... use push black cursor Grays to black and use the middle gray slider in the dialog control to transition between black and white. You can also set the white slider if you wish. Note: If you have added a layer mask, click the desaturated picture glass to ensure that you use the command levels on the image, not the mask.  (Tip: shortcut on PC for levels is Ctrl + L on Mac Cmd + l.)

  Note: If you need a hole in the picture, it is easier in Normal blending mode. 100% opacity. Use the Quick Selection tool if you have a version of items that includes this tool. If you have an older version of elements before the introduction of this tool, the wand should also do the trick.

  Note: If you punched a hole in the glass, save this selection, so you can reuse it. Select

  Just go to step #4 If you punched a hole in your glass.

  4. go in the first copy of desaturated glass (one directly on the one you made to step #3... you should have one above it) and turn on his eyes the visibility in the layers palette.  As previously, the value this screen blend mode layer: 100% opacity. Hide or delete so this layer effect will be limited at the edge of the hole and some of the glass around the edge. Use the levels command to adjust the contrast around the hole. You should concentrate on the white slider and the edges medium gray to make the hole look correct.

  Note: To make it easy on myself, I have used Select

  5. Optional: go to the latest copy of desaturated glass (this must be on top of your pile of palette layers.) and turn on the eye of this layer. Change the blending mode of this layer to soft light blending mode and adjust the opacity to your liking.

  
  Above shows my layers using Photoshop. In the elements, layers will be the same, although your UI will be different. If you have PSE 9, you can use layer masks as I... see PSE9 layer mask video link I linked below.

  http://www.Photoshopelementsuser.com/featured/elements-9-easy-layer-masks/

  If you don't have a PES 9, you can either use the eraser to delete what you don't need or use a clipping mask or clipping group. (Same thing another name.) PSE 8 and 9 PES call it a clipping mask while all older versions of elements called it a clipping group.

  See the tutorial below if you need a tutorial on clipping mask/clipping group.

  http://www.photokaboom.com/photography/learn/Photoshop_Elements/layers/layer_groups_clippi ng_masks/1_layer_groups_clipping_masks.htm

  Another method:

  You can also use Photoshop brushes and little white paint. Search for brushes that are high resolution, pixel large size... like the smaller brush sizes will be blurred if you have their measure. These brushes can usually be found using broken, break, broken, broken or cracked in the search term. These two are beautiful high resolution sets:

  and

  http://archaii.deviantart.com/art/shatter-v2-new-101049266

  Several other series are out there on the net at this site and others. This set has attracted my attention like beautiful brushes appearance and are big brushes. (Brushes of mind may not be more than 2500 px in height or width if you do brush of your own images. Brushes, which are small get blurred when the brush tip size increases then trying to make them bigger. This is why I suggest that you are looking for brushes large high resolution at first.

• vCenter 6 device - integration of group do not add rights

  New construction and installation to 6u1 vCenter.   Unique AD environment.  Nodes basic settings migrate work and existing vCenter 6 (windows setup) in this new facility (aka AD works and is working with the other vCenter 6 yet).

  The installation program was by guide I have found online + made my notes:

  ##################

  Now join the AD authentication system and set permissions:

  http://Wojcieh.NET/vCenter-server-appliance-6-VCSA-configuration/

  

  Input domain Details: example "ibm.aessatl.arrow.com".
  

  

  Test

  

  Assign 'IBM\Domain Admins' high-level rights vCenter

  -> Global permissions ' + '.

  

  Select the group "domain admins".

  

  Add

  

  Set the permission for vCenter from of the same steps above

  

  Now set the permission of SSO for the device

  vCenter Home-> Administration-> manage

  

  ################

  When I login, I get "no inventory".

  When I add a user from ad it gives me rights (aka AD work), so it's sort of the group authorization.

  Nothing, that I see in newspapers to guide to help debug this.  Any ideas?

  Thank you

  After several attempts... reloading... using test systems... I found the way to make it work.

  You must get the vCenter server to join AD, not just add AD as an authentication source.

  Example:

  (1) remove all AD / LDAP sources and awarded the first permissions

  (2) attach vCenter device to AD

  Connect to vCenter via administrator account SSO-> Home-> Administration (left menu)-> Deploy (left menu)-> System Configuration

  Select 'node', which should list the vCenter Server-> Manage (tab at the top)-> advanced-> Active directory-> choose the "Join" button

  Settings for the field (leave empty organizational unit for most customers) and entry of user input "admin area" who can join the field systems

  

  Task will run and not nothing intelegent... but no error means success event although java doesn't refresh it is now in the field.

  Restart the vCenter. Open again as the SSO administrator account and is host to vCenter in the field.

  

  You can also display the vCenter server is a host in AD as a computer object (Active Directory users and computers-> UO "Computers")

  

  Now go back to add the announcement as an authentication source

  Home-> Administration (left menu)->, Single Sign-on (left menu)-> Configuration-> click on '+' to add a new source of

  Choose an option above to the announcement page and do not change any other settings

  

  Last step is to add the "Domain Admins" group of the field to be a member of the 'Administrators' to vCenter role.

  Now when you connect as a 'ibm\jsmith' you should see objects and have permissions.

  Hope this helps someone.

• Is it possible to preset on high JPEG when you use "save for Web". » ?

  Hello

  I use photoshop elements 10. When I'm ready to save the image under "SAVE for WEB" can I preset it 'JPEG HIGH' cos right now it will pop up in "GIF".

  When I use the PSE2, I am able to launch as JPEG HIGH. Now, I have to click the popdown menu to select 'JPEG high '.

  You need to right click the icon of the PSE Bureau and choose "Run as Administrator".

  Then, open an EPS file, use save for Web, and change all the settings to what you prefer. Hold down the Alt key and the 'Done' button will change to a button "Remember." Click it, and then save your image. The settings will be saved and you don't have to rerun PSE as an administrator.

• Bent 6 more screen replacement?

  So in November I took a bad fall on a track and Dope the concrete sidewalk with my brand new 6. Remarkably, the screen is not broken out. My glass screen protector had cracks, but the lower left corner of the bent case metal on a little bit. It seems like a lot, but the phone still worked perfect afterwards so it was never a big deal. The metal itself is folded and the black plastic of the screen pops out about a millimeter. Although about 15 minutes ago, my phone is broken and fell off my bed. There screen still works perfectly well and my protective screen has not burst somehow then the cracked glass is contained. I do not think that the LCD needs to be replaced, just the glass (there are a few yellow spots on the screen).

  My question is whether or not the folded case will be the effect replacing the screen. From what I've seen Apple will be very probably deny it and get me to buy a new phone. You all guess how a third party would react?

  Thanks - Kris

  Nobody here can guess what Apple can do with your phone twisted, especially without inspection.  The only answer can come from Apple.

  Mac users often ask if they should install "anti-virus" (AV) or software "anti-malware". The answer is 'no', but it can give the false impression that there is no threat of what is loosely called 'virus '. There is a threat.

  1. it is a comment on what you should - and should not-do to protect you from malicious software ("malware") that runs on the Internet and gets onto a computer as an unintended consequence of the user's actions.

  It does not apply to the software, such as keyloggers, which can be installed deliberately by an intruder who has convenient access to the computer, or who has been able to take control of it remotely. This threat is in a different category, and there is no easy way to defend against it. AV software is not intended to and does not, to defend against these attacks.

  The comment is long because the issue is complex. The essential points are in articles 5 and 11.

  OS X implements now three levels of integrated protection specifically against malware, not to mention the protections of runtime such as quarantine the file, execute disable, sandbox, protecting the integrity of system, System Library randomization and randomized address space layout , which can also prevent other kinds of exploits.

  2. all versions of Mac OS X 10.6.7 were able to detect the malware Mac known in downloaded files and block non-secure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user. Apple calls internally it "XProtect."

  The malware used by XProtect recognition database is automatically updated. However, you should not count on it, because the attackers are still at least a day before the defenders.

  The following restrictions apply to XProtect:

  ☞ circumvented by some third-party network software, such as the BitTorrent clients and Java applets.

  ☞ It applies only to software downloaded on the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not verified.

  As new versions of Mac OS X are available, it is not clear whether Apple will continue indefinitely maintain the older versions such as 10.6 XProtect database. Versions of obsolete systems security may eventually be affected. Updates to security for the code of obsolete systems will be stop being released at any given time, and which can leave them open to other types of attack in addition to malware.

  3. starting with the OS X 10.7.5, there was a second layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and installation packages downloaded from the network will be run only if they are digitally signed by a developer to a certificate issued by Apple. Certified software in this way has not been checked for safety by Apple, unless it comes to the App Store, but you can be reasonably sure that it has not been changed by someone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so it could be held legally responsible if it distributes malicious software. Which may not mean much if the developer lives in a country with a weak legal system (see below).

  Access controller does not depend on a database of known malware. He has, however, the same limitations as XProtect and in addition the following:

  ☞ It can easily be turned off or overridden by the user.

  ☞ A malware attacker could find a way around it, or could take control of a certificate of signing of code under false pretenses or could simply ignore the consequences of the distribution of malware Tryggvason.

  ☞ Developer App store could find a way around the Apple control, or the control may fail due to human error.

  Apple took too long to revoke some known attackers codesigning certificates, thus diluting the value of the keeper and the program developer ID. These variances do not involve the App Store products, however.

  For the reasons given, App Store, and, to a lesser extent - other applications recognized by signed Gatekeeper, are safer than others, but they cannot be considered to be absolutely sure. "Sand" applications could make to access to private data, such as your contacts, or for access to the network. Think that before granting access. Security sandbox is based on user input. Never click through any application for leave without thinking.

  4. by starting with OS X 10.8.3, a third layer of protection has been added: a "Malware Removal Tool" (MRT). MRT runs automatically in the background. He checks and removes, malware that corresponds to a database of recognition held by Apple. To ensure that MRT will be executed when the database is updated, the App Store tab in system preferences and check the box marked

  Install the system data files and security updates

  If it is not already done.

  As XProtect, MRT is effective against known threats, but not against strangers. It alerts you if it detects malware, but otherwise, it has no user interface.

  5. the built-in Mac OS x security features reduce the risk of malware attack, but they are not and will never be complete protection. Malware is a problem of human behavior, not a behavior machine, and none only of technological solution will solve. Software protect you from trust only will make you more vulnerable.

  The best defense is always going to be your own intelligence. Except perhaps feats of Java, all the known malware, circulating on the Internet wearing reached a completely setting installation to update to OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "Trojans", which may have no effect if the victim is deceived in their execution. The threat thus amounts to a battle of wits between you and cybercriminals. If you are better informed, they think you are, you win. In effect, it means that you always stay in the shelter of practical computing. How do you know when you leave the safe harbor? Here are a few signs warning of danger.

  Software from a reliable source

  ☞ Software with a brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, does not come directly from the Web site. Don't be fooled an alert of any website for updating Flash, or your browser, or other software. A real alert that Flash is outdated and blocked is shown on this support page. In this case, follow the instructions on the support page. Furthermore, assume that the alert is false and that someone is trying to rip you off to install malicious software. If you see these alerts on more than one Web site, ask for instructions.

  ☞ Software any is distributed via BitTorrent or Usenet, or on a Web site that distributes pirated music and movies.

  ☞ Rogue sites Web such as CNET Download MacUpdate, Soft32, Softonic and SourceForge distribute free applications that have been packaged in a superfluous "install".

  ☞ The software is advertised through spam or intrusive web ads. Any announcement, on any site, which includes a direct link to a download should be ignored.

  Software that is clearly illegal or doing something illegal

  Commercial software ☞ high-end such as Photoshop is "cracked" or "free."

  ☞ An application helps you violates copyright law, for example to circumvent the copy protection on a commercial software, or streamed media recording to be reused without permission. All the 'YouTube downloaders' are in this category, but not all are necessarily malicious.

  Conditional or unsolicited offer from strangers

  ☞ A phone calling or a web page you indicates that you have a "virus" and offers to remove. (Some reputable sites warned visitors who have been infected with the malware "DNSChanger" legitimately. The exception to this rule applies.)

  ☞ A web site offers a free content like music or video, but for use, you must install a "codec", 'plug-in', 'player' 'Downloader', 'extractor', or 'certificate' which comes from the same site, or a stranger.

  ☞ You win a prize in a competition that you are never entered.

  ☞ someone on a forum like this is eager to help you, but only if you download an application of your choice.

  ☞ a 'FREE WI - FI!' network presents itself in a public place like an airport, but is not provided by management.

  ☞ Online everything that you expect to pay is 'free '.

  Unexpected events

  ☞ a file is downloaded automatically when you visit a web page, without any further action on your part. delete any file without opening it.

  ☞ You open what you think, it is a document and you receive an alert that it is "an application downloaded from the Internet." Click Cancel and delete the file. Even if you don't get the alert, you must always remove any download that is not what you expected it to be.

  ☞ An application does something you don't expect, such as permission to access your contacts, your location or the Internet without obvious reason.

  ☞ Software is attached to the email you na not ask, even if it is (or seems to come) by a person of trust.

  I do not leave the safe harbour that once will necessarily lead to disasters, but make a habit of it will weaken your defenses against malicious software attacks. None of the above scenarios must, at the very least, make you uncomfortable.

  The emergence of data "ransomware" for Mac was part of the defense against the attacks of backup all data. Since an infected machine could destroy its own backups, at least a backup unit must always be in offline mode. For example, you could turn your backup drives, keeping one with you or another site. This strategy also protects against a physical threat such as a fire or theft.

  6. Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it is not related, despite the similarity of names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform to run complex applications in a web page. That was always a bad idea, and Java developers have proved unable to apply it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been a type virus Windows affecting OS X. simply load a page with Java malicious content could be harmful.

  Fortunately, client-side Java on the Web is outdated and largely disappeared. Only a few outdated sites still use it. Try to accelerate the process of extinction by avoiding these sites, if you have a choice. Forget to play games or other uses not Java essentials.

  Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later versions. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and Oracle (the developer of Java). Do not use one unless you need it. Most of the people don't. If Java is installed, turn it off- not the JavaScript in your browser.

  Whatever the version, experience has shown that Java on the Web is not reliable. If you must use a Java applet for a job on a specific site, Enable Java only for the site in Safari. Never activate Java for a public Web site that carries the third-party advertising. Use only on websites that are well known, protected by login and secure without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you will see a padlock icon in the address bar when you visit a secure site.

  7. another perennial weak point is Adobe Flash Player. Like Java, Flash is declining well deserved, but content Flash is still much more widespread than the contents of Java on the Web. If you choose to install the Flash plugin, you can reduce your exposure to Flash by checking the box marked

  Stop the plug-ins to save energy

  in the Advanced tab of the preferences of Safari window, if not already done. Consider also installing an extension Safari as "ClickToFlash" or "ClickToPlugin." They will prevent the Flash content automatically load and are initially not Flash video is substituted for Flash on YouTube and perhaps a few other sites. I tested the extensions and found them safe, but you should always do your own research before you decide whether to trust any third party software.

  8. remain within the sphere of security, and you will be as safe from malware you can be practically. The rest of this comment is what you must do to protect you.

  Although it may seem counterintuitive, you should never install any AV or products 'Internet security' for Mac if you have a choice, because they are all worse than useless. If you are required by a (wrong) institutional policy to install some kind of AV, choose one of the free apps in the Mac App Store, nothing else.

  Why you should not use products AV?

  ☞ To recognize malware, software depends on a database of known threats, which is always at least one day to day. This technique is a proven failure, as a major supplier of AV software has admitted. Most of the attacks are "zero-day" - that is, previously unknown. Recognition-based AV does not defend against such attacks, and the enterprise IT industry comes to realize that the traditional AV software is worthless.

  ☞ design is based generally on the nonexistent threat that malware can be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; He is not of the blue leaves. To meet this threat does not exist, a commercial AV software changes or low level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a frequent cause of instability, bugs, poor performance, and duplicates.

  ☞ changing the operating system, the software can also create weaknessesthat could be exploited by malicious attackers.

  ☞ especially, a false sense of security is dangerous. This fact relates to all AV software it will never be any changes elsewhere.

  Using the software AV defines you for double exploitation: by hackers, malicious software, that the software does not protect you and the actual AV industry. The latter will often try to hang with a product free of appeal , so it can charge you for "improvements" later.

  9. a free AV product from the Mac App Store is safe as long as you don't let it delete or move files. Ignore all the warnings that it can give you on "heuristic" or "phishing." These warnings, if they are not simply false positives, see the text of e-mail messages or updates cached web pages, not malware. Also ignore any attempt to upsell you to a paid version of the product.

  An AV application is not necessary and may not be invoked for protection against malware for OS X. It is useful, or even not at all, only to detect malware Windows and even for this use it is not really effective, because the new Windows malware makes its appearance much faster than OS X malware.

  Windows malware cannot hurt you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows). Just do not pass to someone else. A malicious link in the e-mail is usually easy to recognize by the name alone. A concrete example:

       London Terror Moovie.avi [124 spaces] Checked By Norton Antivirus.exe

  You don't need software to tell you it's a horse Trojan for Windows. Software may be able to tell what trojan is, but who cares? In practice, there is no reason to use a recognition software, unless an organizational strategy requires. Malware Windows is so widespread that you must assume that it is in each attachment until proof to the contrary.

  A free AV product on the App Store can serve a purpose if it fulfills a misinformed network administrator that requires to have some sort of application AV. An App Store product will not change the operating system; in fact, it does nothing, unless you run it.

  If you are just curious to know if a file is recognized as malware by the AV engines, you can download it from the "VirusTotal" site, where it will be tested against most of them. A negative result is evidence of what whether, for the reasons given above. I do not recommend doing this with a file that may contain private information.

  10. There seems to be a common belief that the firewall Application acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents operation of malware. He does not. It blocks incoming connections to some network services you are using, such as file sharing. It is disabled by default, and you should leave it like that if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate only when you are on an untrusted network, for example a public Wi - Fi hotspot, where you do not want to provide services. Disable services that you don't use in the sharing preferences window. All are disabled by default.

  11. as a Mac user, you don't have to live in fear that your computer may be infected whenever you install the software, read emails, or visit a web page. But nor can you assume that you will always be free from exploitation, no matter what you do. Internet browsing, it's like walking the streets of a big city. It can be as safe or as dangerous that you choose to do so. The greatest harm done by software AV is precisely its selling point: it makes people feel safe. They can then feel sufficiently safe to take risks, which the software does not protect them. Nothing can reduce the need for safe computing practices.

• M100 - flashing light power supply (ac or battery).

  Hello
  I just bought a laptop M100 a few weeks back and it was fine. The other day I was playing with the password Toshiba utility I ran into XP. I put a password on it for I think has the power on function. I then rebooted the machine and now it initializes more.

  When I turn it on, the power led (2nd from the left, between the AC-in and battery) lights green as usual for a split second, then flashes orange in a balance on ground. There is no display, no hard disk activity, and it will not power off unless I have the button for 10 seconds. The fan also seems shot at high speed right away, which does not occur normally.

  I have tried with and without battery, without hard disk, without RAM or battery cmos. Same problem every time! I can't even start up TOSHIBA start screen.

  Someone pleeease help me. I'm at a loss as to what it could be. Also, it seems that no one on the net have reported this problem before.

  Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

  More details: the capslock button light does not answer, but not the light of the FN key. By pressing any button on the keyboard results in a beep slightly delayed.

  Hello

  Well, firstly the password of Toshiba utility allows you to set two levels of password security user password and supervisor password. This function prevents any unauthorized access to your computer.
  What password do you have?
  As far as I know there are two ways to start the computer:
  Insert a password token before turning on the computer. The computer will boot normally, without displaying a prompt of password or enter the password manually.

  In addition, the second light on the left side is a power indicator. It lights up green when the computer is turned on. If you turn off the computer in recovery mode, this indicator flashes in orange (a second to two seconds) while the computer shuts down.

  Well, I put t know why you can boot the unit t, but please also check password settings in the BIOS. Here, you can try to remove this password.

  Mac users often ask if they should install "anti-virus" (AV) or software "anti-malware". The answer is 'no', but it can give the false impression that there is no threat of what is loosely called 'virus '. There is a threat.

  1. it is a comment on what you should - and should not-do to protect you from malicious software ("malware") that runs on the Internet and gets onto a computer as an unintended consequence of the user's actions.

  It does not apply to the software, such as keyloggers, which can be installed deliberately by an intruder who has convenient access to the computer, or who has been able to take control of it remotely. This threat is in a different category, and there is no easy way to defend against it. AV software is not intended to and does not, to defend against these attacks.

  The comment is long because the issue is complex. The essential points are in articles 5 and 11.

  OS X implements now three levels of integrated protection specifically against malware, not to mention the protections of runtime such as quarantine the file, execute disable, sandbox, protecting the integrity of system, System Library randomization and randomized address space layout , which can also prevent other kinds of exploits.

  2. all versions of Mac OS X 10.6.7 were able to detect the malware Mac known in downloaded files and block non-secure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user. Apple calls internally it "XProtect."

  The malware used by XProtect recognition database is automatically updated. However, you should not count on it, because the attackers are still at least a day before the defenders.

  The following restrictions apply to XProtect:

  ☞ circumvented by some third-party network software, such as the BitTorrent clients and Java applets.

  ☞ It applies only to software downloaded on the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not verified.

  As new versions of Mac OS X are available, it is not clear whether Apple will continue indefinitely maintain the older versions such as 10.6 XProtect database. Versions of obsolete systems security may eventually be affected. Updates to security for the code of obsolete systems will be stop being released at any given time, and which can leave them open to other types of attack in addition to malware.

  3. starting with the OS X 10.7.5, there was a second layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and installation packages downloaded from the network will be run only if they are digitally signed by a developer to a certificate issued by Apple. Certified software in this way has not been checked for safety by Apple, unless it comes to the App Store, but you can be reasonably sure that it has not been changed by someone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so it could be held legally responsible if it distributes malicious software. Which may not mean much if the developer lives in a country with a weak legal system (see below).

  Access controller does not depend on a database of known malware. He has, however, the same limitations as XProtect and in addition the following:

  ☞ It can easily be turned off or overridden by the user.

  ☞ A malware attacker could find a way around it, or could take control of a certificate of signing of code under false pretenses or could simply ignore the consequences of the distribution of malware Tryggvason.

  ☞ Developer App store could find a way around the Apple control, or the control may fail due to human error.

  Apple took too long to revoke some known attackers codesigning certificates, thus diluting the value of the keeper and the program developer ID. These variances do not involve the App Store products, however.

  For the reasons given, App Store, and, to a lesser extent - other applications recognized by signed Gatekeeper, are safer than others, but they cannot be considered to be absolutely sure. "Sand" applications could make to access to private data, such as your contacts, or for access to the network. Think that before granting access. Security sandbox is based on user input. Never click through any application for leave without thinking.

  4. by starting with OS X 10.8.3, a third layer of protection has been added: a "Malware Removal Tool" (MRT). MRT runs automatically in the background. He checks and removes, malware that corresponds to a database of recognition held by Apple. To ensure that MRT will be executed when the database is updated, the App Store tab in system preferences and check the box marked

  Install the system data files and security updates

  If it is not already done.

  As XProtect, MRT is effective against known threats, but not against strangers. It alerts you if it detects malware, but otherwise, it has no user interface.

  5. the built-in Mac OS x security features reduce the risk of malware attack, but they are not and will never be complete protection. Malware is a problem of human behavior, not a behavior machine, and none only of technological solution will solve. Software protect you from trust only will make you more vulnerable.

  The best defense is always going to be your own intelligence. Except perhaps feats of Java, all the known malware, circulating on the Internet wearing reached a completely setting installation to update to OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "Trojans", which may have no effect if the victim is deceived in their execution. The threat thus amounts to a battle of wits between you and cybercriminals. If you are better informed, they think you are, you win. In effect, it means that you always stay in the shelter of practical computing. How do you know when you leave the safe harbor? Here are a few signs warning of danger.

  Software from a reliable source

  ☞ Software with a brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, does not come directly from the Web site. Don't be fooled an alert of any website for updating Flash, or your browser, or other software. A real alert that Flash is outdated and blocked is shown on this support page. In this case, follow the instructions on the support page. Furthermore, assume that the alert is false and that someone is trying to rip you off to install malicious software. If you see these alerts on more than one Web site, ask for instructions.

  ☞ Software any is distributed via BitTorrent or Usenet, or on a Web site that distributes pirated music and movies.

  ☞ Rogue sites Web such as CNET Download MacUpdate, Soft32, Softonic and SourceForge distribute free applications that have been packaged in a superfluous "install".

  ☞ The software is advertised through spam or intrusive web ads. Any announcement, on any site, which includes a direct link to a download should be ignored.

  Software that is clearly illegal or doing something illegal

  Commercial software ☞ high-end such as Photoshop is "cracked" or "free."

  ☞ An application helps you violates copyright law, for example to circumvent the copy protection on a commercial software, or streamed media recording to be reused without permission. All the 'YouTube downloaders' are in this category, but not all are necessarily malicious.

  Conditional or unsolicited offer from strangers

  ☞ A phone calling or a web page you indicates that you have a "virus" and offers to remove. (Some reputable sites warned visitors who have been infected with the malware "DNSChanger" legitimately. The exception to this rule applies.)

  ☞ A web site offers a free content like music or video, but for use, you must install a "codec", 'plug-in', 'player' 'Downloader', 'extractor', or 'certificate' which comes from the same site, or a stranger.

  ☞ You win a prize in a competition that you are never entered.

  ☞ someone on a forum like this is eager to help you, but only if you download an application of your choice.

  ☞ a 'FREE WI - FI!' network presents itself in a public place like an airport, but is not provided by management.

  ☞ Online everything that you expect to pay is 'free '.

  Unexpected events

  ☞ a file is downloaded automatically when you visit a web page, without any further action on your part. delete any file without opening it.

  ☞ You open what you think, it is a document and you receive an alert that it is "an application downloaded from the Internet." Click Cancel and delete the file. Even if you don't get the alert, you must always remove any download that is not what you expected it to be.

  ☞ An application does something you don't expect, such as permission to access your contacts, your location or the Internet without obvious reason.

  ☞ Software is attached to the email you na not ask, even if it is (or seems to come) by a person of trust.

  I do not leave the safe harbour that once will necessarily lead to disasters, but make a habit of it will weaken your defenses against malicious software attacks. None of the above scenarios must, at the very least, make you uncomfortable.

  6. Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it is not related, despite the similarity of names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform to run complex applications in a web page. That was always a bad idea, and Java developers have proved unable to apply it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been a type virus Windows affecting OS X. simply load a page with Java malicious content could be harmful.

  Fortunately, client-side Java on the Web is outdated and largely disappeared. Only a few outdated sites still use it. Try to accelerate the process of extinction by avoiding these sites, if you have a choice. Forget to play games or other uses not Java essentials.

  Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later versions. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and Oracle (the developer of Java). Do not use one unless you need it. Most of the people don't. If Java is installed, turn it off- not the JavaScript in your browser.

  Whatever the version, experience has shown that Java on the Web is not reliable. If you must use a Java applet for a job on a specific site, Enable Java only for the site in Safari. Never activate Java for a public Web site that carries the third-party advertising. Use only on websites that are well known, protected by login and secure without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you will see a padlock icon in the address bar when you visit a secure site.

  7. another perennial weak point is Adobe Flash Player. Like Java, Flash is declining well deserved, but content Flash is still much more widespread than the contents of Java on the Web. If you choose to install the Flash plugin, you can reduce your exposure to Flash by checking the box marked

  Stop the plug-ins to save energy

  in the Advanced tab of the preferences of Safari window, if not already done. Consider also installing an extension Safari as "ClickToFlash" or "ClickToPlugin." They will prevent the Flash content automatically load and are initially not Flash video is substituted for Flash on YouTube and perhaps a few other sites. I tested the extensions and found them safe, but you should always do your own research before you decide whether to trust any third party software.

  8. remain within the sphere of security, and you will be as safe from malware you can be practically. The rest of this comment is what you must do to protect you.

  Never install any AV or products 'Internet security' for Mac if you have a choice, because they are all worse than useless. If you are required by a (wrong) institutional policy to install some kind of AV, choose one of the free apps in the Mac App Store, nothing else.

  Why you should not use products AV?

  ☞ To recognize malware, software depends on a database of known threats, which is always at least one day to day. This technique is a proven failure, as a major supplier of AV software has admitted. Most of the attacks are "zero-day" - that is, previously unknown. Recognition-based AV does not defend against such attacks, and the enterprise IT industry comes to realize that the traditional AV software is worthless.

  ☞ design is based generally on the nonexistent threat that malware can be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; He is not of the blue leaves. To meet this threat does not exist, a commercial AV software changes or low level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a frequent cause of instability, bugs, poor performance, and duplicates.

  ☞ changing the operating system, the software can also create weaknessesthat could be exploited by malicious attackers.

  ☞ especially, a false sense of security is dangerous. This fact relates to all AV software it will never be any changes elsewhere.

  9. a free AV product from the Mac App Store is safe as long as you don't let it delete or move files. Ignore all the warnings that it can give you on "heuristic" or "phishing." These warnings, if they are not simply false positives, see the text of e-mail messages or updates cached web pages, not malware.

  An AV application is not necessary and may not be invoked for protection against malware for OS X. It is useful, or even not at all, only to detect malware Windows and even for this use it is not really effective, because the new Windows malware makes its appearance much faster than OS X malware.

  Windows malware cannot hurt you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows). Just do not pass to someone else. A malicious link in the e-mail is usually easy to recognize by the name alone. A concrete example:

       London Terror Moovie.avi [124 spaces] Checked By Norton Antivirus.exe

  You don't need software to tell you it's a horse Trojan for Windows. Software may be able to tell what trojan is, but who cares? In practice, there is no reason to use a recognition software, unless an organizational strategy requires. Malware Windows is so widespread that you must assume that it is in each attachment until proof to the contrary. Nevertheless, a free AV product on the App Store can serve a purpose if it fulfills a misinformed network administrator that says you must have some sort of application AV. An App Store product will not change the operating system; in fact, it does nothing, unless you run it.

  If you are just curious to know if a file is considered malware by the AV engines, you can download it from the "VirusTotal" site, where it will be tested against most of them without charge. A negative result is evidence of what whether, for the reasons given above. I do not recommend doing this with a file that may contain private information.

  10. There seems to be a common belief that the firewall Application acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents operation of malware. He does not. It blocks incoming connections to some network services you are using, such as file sharing. It is disabled by default, and you should leave it like that if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate only when you are on an untrusted network, for example a public Wi - Fi hotspot, where you do not want to provide services. Disable services that you don't use in the sharing preferences window. All are disabled by default.

  11. as a Mac user, you don't have to live in fear that your computer may be infected whenever you install the software, read emails, or visit a web page. But nor can you assume that you will always be free from exploitation, no matter what you do. Internet browsing, it's like walking the streets of a big city. It can be as safe or as dangerous that you choose to do so. The greatest harm done by software AV is precisely its selling point: it makes people feel safe. They can then feel sufficiently safe to take risks, which the software does not protect them. Nothing can reduce the need for safe computing practices.
