I hate Mozilla Virus :: w32.USBWorm

I was asked by my friend that he is the only user in his computer, his account is having administrative rights, but he is not able to open Orkut, and it says Orkut is banned. Another friend had told that he is not able to use Mozilla Firefox and it asks him to use Internet Explorer. I just told it must be some virus, but really didn't care much about that. But none of the antivirus software could remove detect or remove this malware. My friend had given me a pen drive. I remembered it while browsing net on Firefox. When I put that in my PC and double clicked, it didn't open. I knew at once: I had activated a virus . But I didn't have any idea about the kind of virus that might have come to my PC, until I switched back to Firefox. Immediately a message box was displayed: I DNT HATE MOZILLA BUT USE IE OR ELSE... with title as USE INTERNET EXPLORER U DOPE . I just remembered the experiences of my friends. I tried to locate the virus by running the Task Manager. But there were

Scientists study if sea-horses do boost SEX

Image
Dona Paula: Indian scientists are hoping to discover once and for all if seahorses are an aphrodisiac, a myth that has made the creatures an endangered species. Seahorses have been eaten for more than 2,000 years and, as well as being a traditional way of improving sex-drive, are also thought to help respiratory problems. The National Institute of Oceanography in Goa is teaming up with the National Centre for Cell Sciences to try to unravel the mysteries of the unusual fish. Seahorses range in size from 16 mm to 35 cm and are notable for being the only species in which males become “pregnant”. Raidurga Sreepada, a leading scientist at the NIO, said confirming the properties of one of world’s most complex living creatures will not only help the pharmaceutical sector but also help stamp out rampant poaching. Scientists say that once they establish seahorses’ properties, fishing communities and even poachers will be encouraged to set up hatcheries instead of taking them from the wild. “Th

The Do-It-Yourself Cell Phone Network Revolution

Do-it-yourself wireless was inevitable, says Juha Christensen, Sonopia's founder and CEO. With consumers increasingly demanding media customization, from ring tones to YouTube video, he says it was only a matter of time before "micro-segmentation" found its way to wireless. If you're tired of dealing with big cell phone companies, here's an idea: Start your own. That's what Rod Farthing did. A part-time college professor in Toledo, Ohio, Farthing launched "Farthing Mobile" a few weeks ago. His service has eight subscribers, all family members and close friends, "but anybody can join." Farthing says he decided to start his network -- a so-called MVNO or mobile virtual network operator, which transmits calls on one of the existing wireless networks -- because he was tired of hassling with the big carriers. "I'm unhappy with them all." Do-It-Yourself Wireless Farthing is a leader in what could become a revolution in wirele

Formula adds unbeaten innings to correct batting average anomaly

Image
If you’re tired of the Aussie dominance in cricket, Sumit Narayanan and Sanchit Maini may have the right tonic for you. The two actuaries — the people who help companies choose the best insurance deals to offer customers — have taken a break from calculating mortality figures to devise a new formula to determine one of cricket’s most debated statistics: batting averages. And their system is bad news for the Kangaroos. Traditionally, batsmen’s averages have been calculated by dividing the runs scored by the number of innings played. The denominator, however, omits the number of unbeaten innings. The argument is, one can’t know how many more runs the batsman might have scored had he batted on. For instance, if a batsman has scored 200 runs in five in
