Science and technology media publisher Paul Wagenseil today in Fawkes news wrote, a called "Mac Flashback" malicious software has infected global nearly 600,000 apple Mac. In the article he noted that, Mac users need to do three things to protect themselves from the attacks by malicious software.

The following is the full text of this article:

Well, Mac users, judgment day is coming.

Because the apple fails to be introduced patches for well-documented defects, a called " Mac Flashback" malicious software has infected nearly 600000 apple Mac global( data from the Russian security company Dr . Web ).

Here are three things that you need to do:

-- check whether your Mac has been infected by Mac Flashback. Social network site Mashable has created a script to help users to achieve this point, the users can visit Mashable landing site according to the guide to check.

If the script has found Mac infection ( Mac OS X file system in one or two places may be infected), so it will be complex to clear. Then users need to enter Terminal application, according to the Finland security company F-Secure lists the detailed steps to remove.

-- Use the latest security patch apple provided to upgrade OS X. Apple released earlier this week by OS X 10.6Snow Leopard and OS X Lion patch, but in April 5th apple has just upgraded the OS X Lion patch.

If you are using PowerPC chip based on OS X version 10.5 Leopard Mac, Apple will no care for you( reason you can see below ).

-- a deep breath, and then said to yourself:" Steve Jobs has died, and my Mac is not infected with the virus." Then install a reliable antivirus product. Immediate action must be taken, brook no delay.

Antivirus software Apple bundled with OS X 10.7 Lion system can not protect the users, neither the upcoming release of the OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion system Gatekeeper can be.

Users can have a look at the paid products of our sister site TopTenReviews, you can also visit the British security company Sophos website, download the free Mac anti-virus software.

In addition, there are two things to be likely done:

-- Close the Java runtime engine, if you do not use it.

As a platform independent environment to run web applications and perform other tasks, Java has too many defects, so unless absolutely required, you have no reason to open the Java runtime engine. Open the Mac OS X system in the Java parameter tool, check all the options, and then restart.

Unfortunately, Adobe Creative Suite Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign application requires Java environment to run. In this case, you have to trust again apple, although this time Apple was on slow action in helping users . Two months ago, Windows and Linux version of the patch have been launched, to repair the Java defect Mac Flashback making use of.

-- if you are still using PowerPC Mac, then it is time for a change.

Apple excellent hardware means, there are still millions of PowerPC Mac still in use and operation is good, and the production date closest to present is in the factory in 2006. However, Apple has no longer provided support or released a security patch. Apple wants you to upgrade, and in the emergence of the problem, you have no choice.

TechCrunch said, please do not buy cheap Android mobile phone

Thanks for Total Video Converter delivering this article, who is dedicated to developing apps for the current operation systems.

Introduction: the United States of America technology blog TechCrunch Wednesday published an analysis article signed by Matt Burns and he said, in order to capture the Android market, many manufacturers expand product lines, and introduce cheap models. These inexpensive machines "Hardware Design copycat, battery life is short, and the preset many useless softwares", so the use time is shorter, and he called for Android mobile phone users "don't buy cheap".

The following is the full text of the article:

I understand the pain of disablity to purchase high-end products. But from the love of any strong product terms, not to waste money on cheap Android mobile phone, also do not support your loved one in Android mobile phone, which is a waste of money.

Because the United States market general subsidies, cheap Android mobile phone and top model between the price gap is generally very small. In addition to Galaxy Note, Droid Razr MAXX, Galaxy Nexus contract price of $299, a lot of Android mobile phone cost only $199, preferences after LG Lucid contract price of only $80. Cheap mobile phone often will soon be discarded, but also not provide timely updates, you just for their own another failure hint.

In the United States, most intelligent machine prices are reasonable. Operators often early give price discount, and then salvaged discount from two years of voice and data subscription package. Whether it is good or bad, in this way the consumers can easily access the top equipment, such as Galaxy S II and Droid RAZR, which is the world's top companies deal with iPhone tool.

But the problem is, these companies do not just want to beat iPhone, they also hope to try and obtain possession in the smartphone market at all levels. In order to achieve this goal, they are crazy in expansion of intelligent machine product line, resulting in no longer focused on the 1to the 2great mobile phone, but introduced many low-end models, many functions not running well. Android expands the market through low machine market penetration, but it also makes many users feel discontented.

Motorola, Samsung and other mobile phone manufacturers rely on the flagship facility for their product lines to get attention. This mobile phone access to the manufacturer's top advertising, updated faster, and generally have more third party softwares. They also often get more attention because of the developer community, but some of them also ban users modifying mobile phone system by locking the Bootloader.

" But the price is more expensive!" The mobile phone, the price is sometimes two times of cheap machine. But now we discuss the $100 to $200 machines, the difference is not big. Thanks to the operators of the same subsidy mode, the mobile phone price is reduced to an affordable level. You need a requirement for more than two years of mobile phone usage, so do not waste money on cheap models.

But when the consumers in the comparison of mobile phone configuration, the issue came. Both the two mobile phones' screens are large, with 1.2GHz processor, 512MB memory, but one provides a low price of $100. That mobile phone hardware design is more copycat, the battery capacity is lower, with many" expansion " softwares ( bloatware ). Android is a demand of the mobile system, quality and software need to be guaranteed.

A lot of other types of mobile phone whose price is $100 exists in the market. Nokia900( Lumia 900), next week after the listing contract price will be about $100, and iPhone 4 current contract price is only $100. If you really want a Android mobile phone, you can consider the Galaxy S II flagship model. Samsung in 2011 put all inputs to the mobile phone, the mobile phone and the operation are both good, obtained by developers and attachment to community 's favorite. But remember, it will be the mobile phone that you will be using in the future two years, spending more time and money buying a high-end mobile phone, so you may be able to use a longer time.
