AVERT, escanea tu equipo con 8 motores antivirus a la vez

Gracias Pablo Eos Gomez por el dato! :)


Publicado el 26/10/2010 por Juanguis
AVERT es un programa que nos permite analizar el equipo con 8 motores antivirus distintos de forma simultanea para encontrar posibles virus o amenazas y dejar nuestra computadora libre de estas alimanias.
La aplicación soporta los siguientes motores antivirus: A-squared, ClamWin, Trend Micro, Sophos, Panda, Avira y VBA32 . Así que cuando escaneemos el sistema, se estarán pasando todos esos antivirus a la vez.
Los motores de escaneo se descargan en forma separada, y lo hacemos cuando tenemos instalada la aplicación. El peso de los motores es de aproximadamente unos 300MB y una vez instalados podemos activar o desactivar los que deseemos.

Apricorn lanza HD externo, con encriptación de datos por hardware

Written by Cristian Wednesday 27 October 2010.

Apricorn today expanded the Aegis Padlock family of secure portable hard drives with the release of two high-capacity models providing 750GB in storage space. The difference between the two comes from the protection level offered, one has AES 128-bit hardware encryption while the other 256-bit.

The new drives measure 19 x 84.5 x 120 mm, and have 8MB of buffer memory, a USB 2.0 interface, a 16-point omni-directional shock mounting system, a wear resistant keypad for entering the user-set PIN code, and the Brute Force Self Destruct feature which destroys the encryption key and locks the drive when systematically attacked.

The AES-128 750GB Aegis Padlock costs $179, while the AES-256 version goes for $199. Both are backed by a three-year warranty.

Nuevo y muy curioso mouse wireless de Asus

Es un discman? No! Es un mouse! Asus lanza este cacharrito USB inalámbrico, con superficie táctil y teclas multimedia…

Hasta donde se puede reinventar la rueda?

Asus may be better known for their netbooks and motherboards, but they occasionally take an interest in peripherals, namely the 'Pulse Rate' mouse and Eee Stick. For your consideration, they deliver the WX-DL Mouse. In the Sisyphean effort to build a better mouse, this is definitely an option, albeit not quite as one would hope. In nearly 30 years of commercial use, the basic shape and use are relatively unchanged. Asus' WX-DL mouse is named for one of its designers, David Lewis. David has given this a bit of a 90's look with a chrome finished exterior and dark accents. The all aluminum body should feel cool to the touch as well as the eye. The top surface is a touch sensitive control system that can recognize some gestures. It also has active areas that function as remote control buttons for media players.

While the combination of mouse and multi-touchpad is currently championed by Apples Magic Mouse, this worthy suitor may be a PC friendly alternative. You must be willing to forgo the desire to bounce pinballs off it to beat Tommy's high score. These are available for sale at various vendors for roughly $79 and should be a bit easier to track down than truly revolutionary Cylo/Orbit mouse of years past. We'll wait for some hands-on reviews to see if the touch surface can finally replace that awkward scroll wheel we rely on so much.
