How to Solution Here

Recently there is an outbreak of mobile viruses in Russia where a booby-trapped Movie Player application is infecting Android phones ( 10th August 2010 ). The virus caused costly text messages to be sent.

One wonders if there is an effective way to scan for malware in mobile phones these days. I checked up the Trend Micro product listing and found that they have the Trend Micro  Mobile security for Enterprises 5.5. They have a trial version which you may want to try first before purchasing.

They is what they state that the rojans, malware scanning can do: It block viruses, worms , Trojans, spyware and malicious mobile code on handhelds and storage cards ! It performs automatic realt iem virus scan and allows mobile users to initiate manual scans.

Well…it’s no longer the PCs that viruses are going after these days, it is the mobile phones !

Have you got a situation where all the usernames in Gmail remains even though you did not enable any password saving?

You tried to clear the history , delete the internet history and even those offline files but the usernames of all those previously created names still appear in the drop down when you try to enter your Gmail.

If you are using the Chrome browser, it can be very frustrating as you do not know where to remove this as it is not a password.

This is how you solve it. Navigate –> Top right corner of Chrome where you see the spanner, then click to Options

Next navigate to “Under the hood” –> Clear Browser data. Check as shown below:

That should solve your problem.

Are you having a difficulty deciding what is a good printer to purchase ?

I just purchased one for use, and it can be for home office as well . What do I like and not like about this printer ?

Likes:

a) Double sided printing - This is a neat feature as older printer tend to print on one side and this is detrimental to cost saving as well as not to mention wastage on paper.

b) Collating - If you have multiple copies and you want them in sequence to your originall stack of copies, then collating is a useful feature, this was previously available for the bulky office printers only.

c) Wireless - This is good if you have multiple PCs or Mac in your office or home and when you are doing work with the printer, someone else can jump on the queue with a short printing and hey, presto, they are out without having to plug and unplug cable.

d) Plug and play- Using thumb drive and other SD devices or picture storage devises, they can just be plugged in and you can immediately print off the printer without having to hook up to the PC or Mac !

e) Support the Mac - I have a PC but the software installed on my PC , I think it has a MAC option as well.

f) Price - At USD$300, it’s a steal ! I got mine together with a free audio speaker costing USD$50, so it’s a big bargain .

What I don’t like :

a) 5 ink cartridges - Each one costs at least USD$12 , but I think that for the ink type 820, 821, there are re-fillers out that they you can use to fill in for a fraction of the cost. I will use that to offset the cost.

b) The tray opens up when you print automatically, this is irritating as in time, it will wear and tear and I think it will not last 5 years ! If so, I will reap it open and put a manual tray with a small table under it to collect the papers !

c) Some redundant forms like templates for calendar etc … who would ever use these! Or at least not me!

d) It doesn’t come with an ethernet cable ! Cheap skates these fellows - you make sure you have an ethernet cable. Last time when I purchase a Canon, it comes with one, so that your PC can easily hook up with the printer , but not anymore !

e) Warranty - mine comes with 2 years free warranty, they should have 5 years like disk drives! Those fellows are making money from print heads and ink ! I got extra 3 months from online registration , that takes a little sting off.

Well… you have it from a user on MX876 canon printer … enjoy
