Having smart phone stolen or losing it will constitute severe security threats because some IT experts have discovered that security police will not work when they are dealing with multiple smart phone platforms. Moreover, terminal users will not be able to resist their desire of connecting to the network of the company via only one device.
It is revealed by the research crew targeting at the security study of smart phones in Carnegie Mellon University that four out of ten companies have had their mobile devices stolen. About a half of the stolen and lost devices contain key business statistics of the companies.
This research has detected that more than one third of the stolen mobile devices have imposed economic influence on these companies. The shadow casted by the risk of missing or stolen devices is more serious than the threats directed toward the mobile platform by the malware. Although it is predicted that the stolen mobile devices will increase the number of attacks imposed on cell phone platforms, up till so far, the attacks are limited to an extremely small number. The damage done to the cell phone by malware is limited because of the frequent adoption of malware scanning approaches. On the contrary, losing the mobile devices will leak more important information of the users.
The terminal users are currently adopting some new security measures to locate their devices. The research has also found that less than 50 percent of the equipment users have the habit of backing up their mobile statistics in every week. Nearly 50 percent of users set password on their mobile devices. In addition, another one out of three users sets sensitive working related information on their smart phones.
Companies have developed corresponding security policies toward mobile devices. However, the study has discovered that less than one third of employees understand the security policy of the smart phone in their company. A majority of employees do not know the access privileges of their devices and all they know is that the policy of their companies appears to be too strict. This means that these companies are currently stuck in a difficult situation and they are requested to achieve appropriate balance without affecting the productivity.
The report believes that the users should understand what the security policy of their company is, why they should be feasible. The users have to realize that they are the information managers of their companies and their lives are dependent on maintaining information security.disk optimizers.

Registry - How Much do You Know it?
Registry fix is a complex information database which is programmed by programmer, it is a multi-level style. In different systems the basic structure of the registry is same. The complex data will be combined in different ways thus create an absolute unique registry.
Registry is a data file which is designed for all 32-bit hardware (driver) and 32-bit applications. 16-bit driver can not work in the Winnt, so all devices are controlled through the registry. In Winows95, 16-bit drivers will continue to work in real mode method, they use system.ini to control. 16-bit applications will work in NT or Windows95, the program files still refer to win.ini and system.ini to access information and control.
Manually clean registry is a cumbersome thing and very dangerous. Use registry defrag software will help you much. In a variety of registry defrag software, Advanced SystemCare PRO 3 of iobit is worth as first choice. It provides always-on, automatic integration and optimal maintenance service, protects privacy performance, improves system clean-up capacity.

Powerful and award-winning automatic system optimization function can accurately prevent computer operation error, clean up computer system, optimize the speed of web page and download data, protect the privacy of users, effectively improve computer implementation performance. Use Advanced SystemCare PRO 3 will bring you a different new experience!
The free software RegClean which is written by Microsoft is also very handy. RegClean is small, simple and easy to use, when starting the program it will check registry, click a button will repair all errors that are founded, it can register entries on the unloaded software, the detailed use method as follows:
First, run RegClean
The method of running RegClean is very simple, only double click RegClean icon, RegClean dialog box will pop up, then it will automatically analyze theregistry and check the errors in registry. This process takes about 30 seconds to 30 minutes, the length of time depends on the registry size and speed of the machine operation.
Second, repair registry
After RegClean analyzing registry, another dialog box will pop up, only click "Fix Errors" bottom which is on the lower right of the dialog box, RegClean will automatically repair the registry errors. At this time, RegClean will create an Undo.REG file in its directory, the file name is "Undo computer yyyymmddhhmmss.REG". RegClean writes registry Information in this file which contains computer name and time information. Then it removes incorrect registry entries from registry. Dialog box will prompt you the progress of this process.
Third, quit RegClean
Before RegClean repairing errors, if you do not want RegClean to fix these errors or RegClean did not find any errors in the registry, you can click the "Cancel" button to exit RegClean.

Classification of Junk Files
No.1 The Scratch Files Made in the Software Installing Period
We all need to explode a lot of software to a temporary file first by using some pc tools such as the WinZip when we install it. If the design of the software is not so perfect, or the operating system has some problems, we will find that these scratch files are not temporary at all after installing the software. In this case, the so-called temporary files will become the wastes in the hardware, and usually we can recognize them by the suffix “*.tmp”.
We can also meet with some temporary swap files when the software is working. For example, we can meet with the duplicate files which have the suffix “*.old” and “*.bak” produced by some working processes.
Some utility software will have provided help or course files, or some spare text files and so many other files. A lot of text files is not only large and occupying a lot of space, but also slowing down the operating system and some graphics. What is more, the “system restore” files will occupy a lot of the disk space.
No.2 The Remained Files Produced by Software Unloading
Because most of the Windows software uses the DLL, and some software is not perfect, a lot of software will have some files after it is unloaded. The “dll” and the “hlp” files and other nameless stuff will become the true wastes in the computers.
No.3 The Scratch Files Made by the Internet Surfing
When we surf the Internet, the browser will download some page files to the computers. These files will not only occupy the precious disk space, but also let out your secrets to the public. In addition, the files will produce history marks, temporary cache files, cookie and other stuff which are totally useless wastes.
By knowing the kinds of junk files, we should take measures to get them out. In this case, we need the help of pc tools.
With the help of pc tools, we can do system optimization and many other things. Usually, we will scan the whole operating system first, and then find out all the wastes. Next, we can order the pc tools to clean up the wastes. At the same time, the pc tools can help us speed up the computers.
If you meet with big system problems, you can use the pc tools to do system optimizing. Within several minutes, you can own a faster and more effective computer.

Turkey Has Arrested Thirty Two Hacker Members from the Organization Anonymous
It is reported that after the hacker organization, Anonymous, imposed DDOS attacks to the Turkey government website, Turkey government has initiated active response and immediate arrested 32 Anonymous members.
It is known that these 32 Anonymous members arrested by Turkey government were scattered in 12 cities in this country among which are the capital of the country Ankara and Istanbul, the port city located in the Northeastern part of the country.
This hacker organization is a loose organization consisted of a group of radicals. Generally, they tend to conduct DDOS attack toward organizations and companies they oppose. This attack denies users access to log on this website. Spain had announced for the first time in last Friday that it has mobilized police force to fight against Anonymous. Spain has arrested three members of this organization who are suspected to have issued DDOS attack toward banks, government websites and Sony and other companies.
Anonymous organization had also publicized an announcement on last Friday on its own website, AnonOps Communications that the purpose of their attacking the Turkey government was to protest the internet relevant plan released by the government in last August. The radicals from more than 30 cities in Turkey demonstrated in the street in this May to oppose this country's issuing this plan.
In the past several years, we have witnessed with our own eyes how Turkey government adopt various internet inspection measures such as filtering the content of YouTube, Rapidshare, Fileserve and thousands of other websites. This announcement highlights that the government has also denied users of the access to Google service in recent days. To users, inspection of this type is unforgiveable.
The Anonymous notes that it will adopt the Low Orbit Ion Cannon to conduct attack mission. The targets of this Low Orbit Ion Cannon include Turkey Tele Communication Bureau and Social Security Institution of this country. Low Orbit is an easy and convenient tool to issue DDOS attack. However, some public security-experts comment that law enforcement institutions can easily follow the tracks to find the user of this tool.
In last Saturday, the Anonymous organization remarked that they have got back at the Spanish police station and successfully conducted a four-hour long DDOS attack toward the website of the police station. Nevertheless, the website of Spanish police station has recovered its normal function in this morning.
Although, the attacks of hackers seem to be omnipresent, government can effectively protect the private information from being leaked through installing anti-spyware.

Apple is Not Totally Virus-Free! Mac Users Should Be Cautious about Fake Anti-Virus Software
The Apple Company has released a security patch in recent days to deal with the continuous attack targeted as Mac users by a type of fake anti-virus software. This patch deleted the fake anti-virus software named Mac Defender and added the detection service to the in-built malware monitoring function of Mac computer for the purpose of preventing its users from downloading fake anti-virus software as soon as possible. If the upgraded software detects the attack, a warning window will pop out of the interface which contains an eye-catchy red Stop sign with white exclamation point.
It is understood that the MAC Defender will send warnings to the users and inform them that their computers have infected with the virus through operating a fake, virus-scanning flash window. Then, this fake software will operate a real MAC installing program and request the users to enter the Administrator password. Once the users install this program, their computer will behave like it has indeed infected with virus and open a bunch of annoying websites. Other functions and features of the computer will also be affected. Then, the Mac Defender will offer to the users three options, one year, two-year and life-long anti-virus service. If the users choose to purchase, the Mac Defender will steal the credit card information of the users.
At the present phase, the Apple Company has disclosed the method for manual removing this software on its official website. Nevertheless, according to the report of the American IT website ZDNet, Mac Defender released the latest edition which can avoid the interception of this method a few hours after the Apple Company's launching of the security patch.
It is widely known that the previous number of malware aimed at damaging the OS X platform is rather limited. However, as the increasingly popularization of Apple products in the world, the number of Apple computer users keeps expanding. Virus targeting Mac system shows is skyrocketing in every year as the market share of Apple Company grows. According to the detection of the professional information security manufacturer, Kaspersky Lab, the number of newly detected viruses by Kaspersky in every single day has exceeded 35 thousand and among which are 300 targeting at Mac system. It can be indicated from this observation that Mac system has become the new attack target of cyber criminals.
In responding to this situation, the Kaspersky Lab has introduced to the Mac users the brand new Mac security and anti-virus software which can effectively defend the attach of virus which targets at Mac system, Trojan, hackers, virus-carried e-mails and other internet threats.

Computer System Optimization --Improving the Speed to Surf Internet
There are many aspects for system optimization, and the improvement of Internet speed is one of a kind of optimization, which is also the more important reasons for optimization, we introduce several acceleration methods in the following:
<b> </b>
1. Modify the registry
Note: Please back up your registry files before changes.
a, start the Registry Editor and complete the following settings. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ System \ CurrentControlSet \ Services \ Class \ NetTrans \ 0000, key name: MaxMT, change the value to 1500.MaxMTU is the largest TCP / IP transmission unit, in the standard TCP / IP protocol, the data to be transferred is divided into smaller groups for transmission, and the size of each group is 576 bytes. Default bytes in Windows are 1500 bytes, which is <span>the Ethernet packet standards. Many broadband users set the value to 576 to optimize the system while originally surfing the internet through dial-up, and now we have to change it back to the default values. Although in theory the value of PPPoE in ADSL we use is smaller than this value, but in general we are satisfied with this value. This is the most critical part of ADSL optimization for many users.
</span>
<span>b, In the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ System \ CurrentControlSet \ Services \ VxD \ MSTCP, modify the following string value.
DefaultRcvWindow = 32768
DefaultTTL = 64
Where defaultRcvWindo transmission unit is the size of the buffer. It will result in packet blocking to reduce transmission efficiency if the Buffer is too small. If the buffer is too large and a packet is error, it will cause all the partitions in the buffer discarded and resent, and also reduce efficiency. The size of the value is related to the speed of the Modem, preferably 32768. Default TTL is the TCP / IP packet's life, if the transmittion time of the packet in the Internet is longer than the life of the packet, the packet will be discarded. Change Default TTL to be larger is useful to transmit the information to be further. Some friends may feel too much trouble about above optimization, perhaps there is still some doubt about the final result. We can use Advanced SystemCare PRO 3 to modify the registry and improve system performance. </span>
2. Change the operating system to Windows XP
After changing to Windows XP, Many friends found markedly improved Internet speed and the stability of the network has improved a lot, stop and Shock basically do not exist. So it is a better way to solve the problem by changing to Windows XP.
3, let start more quickly
After installed ADSL, each time the starting speed of your system slows down significantly, it will take up to 2 to 3 minutes sometimes. Actually, ADSL don't affect PC, but rather the network card, the reason is very simple: the installation of network card is installed in the network card TCP / IP protocol and not set TCP / IP, the system defaults to "obtain IP automatically address ", so every time it will constantly searches the network DHCP server to obtain their dynamic IP addresses when you start the system, the computer will search repeatedly if the DHCP server don't be searched, so the starting speed will be significantly slower.
Solution: set a fixed IP address for the system.
a, open the "Control Panel” → “Network” , select TCP / IP protocol of your network card in the" Configuration ", and then click " attribute. "
b, select "IP address→ IP address of the specified input,IP address and subnet mask, at last, click " OK. "
c, restart the computer, the speed is faster.
But for some extern7al ADSL Modem, you can't surf the internet if it don't set to “obtain IP address automatically How to do it? Above the versions of Windows Me, it has been optimization for the search time, it doesn't matter whether you set or not.
In addition, you also can find junk files and remove junk files to improve the speed of surf internet.

What Is Privacy Sweep?
Privacy security was once again under hot debate among the public when news has it that Google illegally accumulated its users' private information with its smart phone application. It isn't yet clear whether Google should be held accountable as a result of the sensational news, but one thing I can tell from the incident is that people lay a really heavy store by their privacy. Therefore, it is just natural for online users to grow vigilant and skeptical of the privacy sweep option offered by system care software or anti-virus software.
They will cast great doubt about this privacy sweep option: does it mean that these security tools will peek into our privacy or what? But in fact, this option doesn't work as they supposed. Quite the opposite, it works to protect our internet privacy. Well, just let me show you how it achieves this purpose.
I believe now many of you are keen on online shopping or will occasionally make online transfer. It means you make your payment through the connected network. And it will be naïve of you to entrust your account security all to the banking system. It is because when you type in your account number and password to make payment, these messages will be automatically stored in your computer system without your knowing. In this way, you don't have to type it again when logging on the banking system next time. Though this means good, it does risk the leaking of your private information.
And the privacy sweep option rightly acts to respond to this risk. By selecting this option, the software will wipe out all your online activities, internet and history traces lingered in your computer's hard disk or registry. Take Iboit Advanced SystemCare PRO 3 for example. This system care software just offers the privacy sweep option. It is a good feature of it. As it is powerful and efficient in junk messages detection, it will completely erase the private messages linger out there, especially in the registry. In a word, it leaves no chance for hackers to steal your privacy by inserting Trojans or spywares. Besides, anti-virus software like Kaspersky also supports similar options.
To sum it up, privacy sweep doesn't mean to peek into our privacy. Instead, it functions to keep our privacy from being stolen by the spywares or Trojans infiltrate into our systems. Understand it, and you will like it.
