Improved search results within your Gmail:
Now when you type something into the Gmail search box, the autocomplete predictions will be tailored to the content in your email,
so you can save time and get the information you want faster than ever before. For example, you might now get lax reservation or lax united
as predictions after typing “lax” if you have received an email with a flight confirmation for your trip to Los Angeles in your inbox recently.

FakeAV Pages In-Depth

http://research.zscaler.com/2012/04/details-of-fake-av-page.html

1723

This is a month old and my only question is ??? Does avast! now block this. ???

1724

I know it is a month old, but it is still interesting, is it not? After all, you questioned it. ::slight_smile:

avast! can only block so much. New malware is made before the analyst can analyze.
See: http://research.zscaler.com/2012/05/follow-up-on-top-blacklisted-sites.html

1725

Sorry, but if there where others that blocked it a month ago, then I don’t see any reason for avast! by now
not blocking it. (For all I know, it already does.) I’d just like a confirmation. :wink:

Hi !Donovan & bob3160,

To keep up with the latest, look here from time to time: http://sucuri.net/global

Unfortunately that still doesn’t answer my question.

Hi bob3160,

Google safebrowsing will protect you with a warning and block you from going to these sites. This for instance: hxtp://totalpad.com/ (Fake AV)
→ http://www.webutation.net/go/review/totalpad.com
You get a message"This site can harm your computer" and “Take me back to safety, please!”.
Had been infected through: http://safebrowsing.clients.google.com/safebrowsing/diagnostic?site=infoitpoweringgatheringit.com/&client=googlechrome&hl=nl
So when you are surfing Chrome you won’t even go to these sites,
here iy is not detected: http://vscan.urlvoid.com/analysis/31d012903d1169d0d2251d4a3df190b3/aW5kZXg=/
No alert from avast Networkshield either when I go there with Mozilla,

polonus

Thanks for the explanation. I always knew using Chrome was a good idea. :wink: :slight_smile:

Hi bob3160,

Well another recent example of what we encounter here. This scam had not yet been added to avast detection scandsk.exe
(9 of 42 vendors only detected this a week ago) , VT detection results see: https://www.virustotal.com/file/2fb27e8b107a91bfbf8455fe0bead948be15654fdbfc86a90f4f65037afabaca/analysis/1337207361/

Read description of this threat: -http://research.zscaler.com/2012/05/follow-up-on-top-blacklisted-sites.html (link author Julien Sobrier)

Also read what Google Safebrowsing further will protect you from: http://cyberinsecure.com/category/malware/

So indeed, bob3160, a good idea for both you and me and those that read our postings,
because Opera and IE users will miss this specific Google Safebrowsing protection,
as webmasters are oh so reluctant in cleansing their own sites
despite of the total number of Fx and GoogleChrome visitors diminishing all the time,
because of the blocking page they get shown,
the infection of visitors to these pages goes on and on,

Stay safe and secure,

polonus

Here comes Yahoo’s own Web browser – Axis

Has any one tried this ??? I personally don’t understand the hoopla.

1732

The ability to continue your browsing on another device and the quick-search-result-view in images would be really handy. I’m wondering what the result screen would be (if any) if the website’s picture could not be received for whatever reason.

1733

Yes it would be handy if what you were working on/interested in at home on your desktop, you could continue when away from home. Essentially this is just some sort of sync tool for what you are doing if you used Axis on your desktop system. Given this is to connect to an ipad/iphone, I just wonder if the home desktop had to be a mac.

I certainly haven’t and somehow don’t believe I will be, since it is only compatible ipad and iphone no android app.

1734

It’s actually a plug-in app for your browser. Since it doesn’t support android, I also can’t really find a use for it.

The Antivirus Era Is Over

“Conventional security software is powerless against sophisticated attacks like Flame, but alternative approaches are only just getting started. Flame is just the latest in a series of incidents that suggest that conventional antivirus software is an outmoded way of protecting computers against malware.”

http://www.technologyreview.com/news/428166/the-antivirus-era-is-over/

Could this be true? Flame was around for over two years and no A/V company found it.
