Why does Genuine Windows have to cost too much?

Why aren’t there any other better alternative to Windows?

And why the heck can’t people stop making viruses and malware and such?!!! What do they get from making them and destroying files and stuff? WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE?

Why can’t these evil hackers get a life? Why can’t they just do something good rather than waste their efforts on viruses and hacking credit card numbers and such? Does it earn them more money to destroy people’s computer systems? How do they effin’ sleep at night?! If they’re very good at programming and making viruses and such why don’t they make great programs instead of crappy viruses and malware and other evil computer stuff everyone hates!?! If no one agrees to make them no on will offer to financially support them!!! Why is it so much easier to take the easy and evil way for a lot of us?

I hate you all!!!! You evil computer internet crap makers! @($&$*(&#?}+#!

People like you who make such crap are evil and insecure and want more than you should have even when you have more than what other really unfortunate people have!

I hate Windows (genuine) for being too expensive for the common man anywhere in the world! And i hate these good for nothing virus and malware makers who can’t seem to have time to find anything good to contribute to the world. I see them selfishly gloating over their success at creating such evil things!!! It’s like people who make money out of pornography!!! Exploitation of women and children!!! Good Lord!

Dear God why can’t they realize the error of their ways?!!

(Okay, actually System Security 2009 is a Rogue Security Software as stated in several websites around the net.)

You’re probably reading this because your computer got infected by it or just got curious what it is or whatever.

So how do you remove this frickin’ “virus program” from your PC? It’s easy… you can just search around online… follow their advise and download some free anti-spyware software and update your anti-virus everyday etc… like i did.

“But the question is… Where does System Security 2009 (Rogue Security Software) come from?”

How does one get these annoying online pests? Most websites only talk about how to remove it because, of course, that’s the most important thing to solve your current problem/s. But how will you go about preventing it from ever affecting your computer (again)?

Only a few websites say where it probably comes from: 
(a) it may have come from downloading a song, video, codec, free software etc. from P2P Networks or malicious websites, or
(b) it just pops up in your computer out of “nowhere”,
(c) or you’ve used an infected USB drive (or mp3 players, etc.) and didn’t know it had this “malicious program virus” somewhere in it.

With regards to protecting your computer from malicious websites, I don’t know if setting 3 different users in a PC and only using 1 of them can really help prevent malware problems but you can click and read the article link above to see/try if it’s ok or not. I have no idea if it’s easy, feasible and useful in the long run.

Now i’ll try and help anyone who might also be experiencing problems from this “virus”. You may click the links in this article for more information on whatever i’m talking about. =)

“How do i avoid getting this type of “virus”?”

From what i’ve experienced and also gathered around the net… these may be helpful in preventing trojan and malicious program infections:
1. Use a firewall.
2. Install a genuine and effective anti-virus program. Don’t rely on illegal/downloaded/cracked anti-virus programs.
3. Install FREE anti-malware/spyware programs.
4. Update 2 & 3 regularly including your genuine Windows OS. If you don’t use a genuine Windows OS then 2 & 3 may suffice i guess.

And lastly, be aware of what you click while browsing the internet. Stop and read before you click. If your anti-virus and anti-malware and Windows OS is working perfectly, and something else pops up in your screen telling you you’ve got infected etc then that’s not to be trusted and is certainly a virus. Check for wrong spellings/grammars to be sure too.

If you’re not downloading anything, never click the OK button of these malicious pop ups. Always click the Cancel button of untrusted pop ups.

“So anyway how do you remove/get rid of this System Security 2009 program that seems to have installed itself in the PC?”

Part I:
1. Reboot/Restart your infected PC after disabling your (local) network connection. Also press F8 immediately upon seeing the screen (whatever the stuff it initially runs after you press the power button of your PC) and select to run windows from your hard drive.
2. BE QUICK. Once windows has loaded and you already see your desktop (background) wallpaper, immediately press “alt + ctrl + del” to access the task manager.
3. Go to “Processes” tab between “Applications” and “Performance” (i use Windows XP). Click the “Image Name” to alphabetize the running processes in your PC (0-9, a-z). KEEP COOL AND FOCUS ON WHAT YOU ARE DOING
4. WAIT for an “all numeric program” to appear. This number seems to be unique to each computer. (Mine was 11315314.exe)
5. Immediately select it and press END PROCESS to stop the all numeric program from continuing itself.

Doing this should end the program and allow you to be “safe” from the “dreaded virus warning wallpaper” with wrong spellings.

Now you can relax…. a bit.

Part II: It’s pretty useful to have an uninfected PC or laptop around (with internet access) when your own computer is infected.

You can do any or all of the following (like i did) :
Use another computer to download these two programs -
> an anti-malware program (i use Ad-Aware from Lavasoft)
> a registry scanner (I use Uniblue Registry Booster and Glary Utilities) -
then copy the files to a USB flash drive or burn it in a CD (or if you can still use a floppy disk then put the files in one).
 Connect the flash drive or insert the CD with the downloaded programs and install the anti-malware and registry scanner on the infected PC and run them one at a time. Then follow the instructions to remove the “whatevers” that it finds, use fix or delete (except restart/reboot) depending on your program.
DO NOT REBOOT / RESTART before you have done what follows this sentence. Reboot/restart it after you’ve done everything.
Update your anti-virus if it doesn’t automatically do so upon stopping the malicious program. Do a Full Virus Scan of your infected PC then delete all the threats/results that it finds.
Delete the “all numeric malicious program’s” Registry Keys. Be careful to remove only the Registry Keys of the virus program. No need to back it up as these are “virus” registries.

Sample Registry Keys associated with System Security 2009:

* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\uninstall\systemsecurity2009
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\uninstall\systemsecurity2009 displayicon
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\uninstall\systemsecurity2009 displayname
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\uninstall\systemsecurity2009 shortcutpath
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\uninstall\systemsecurity2009 uninstallstring
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run “00308937″
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software0308937

Delete the System Security 2009 program folder. The folder name is the same as the all numeric program you have stopped earlier. It’s located inside the Documents and Settings folder. Make sure you set the “folder options” to show hidden files and folders. See below:

Files associated with System Security 2009:

* %Documents and Settings%\All Users\Application Data0308937\pc00308937ins
* %Documents and Settings%\All Users\Application Data03089370308937.exe
* %Documents and Settings%\All Users\Application Data0308937\config.udb
* %UserProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\System Security\System Security 2009 Support.lnk
* %UserProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\System Security\System Security 2009.lnk
* %UserProfile%\Desktop\System Security 2009.lnk

After doing all this, reboot/restart your computer.

All this should have removed System Security 2009 from your PC (like it has done in mine! Yey!). If it doesn’t… well then search the internet for more solutions =)

Well not that i played all the other 2 games’ versions but it seems both these games are similar in a sense because i find the games too hard! Ahahaha! My thumbs are gonna kill me if i play Devil May Cry 3 (DMC3) again. But the PSP version of Prince of Persia: Revelations (POPR) is close to making my thumbs ache again… Actually it’s making my head ache too because it’s kinda dizzying… i don’t know if i lack a sense of direction in the game (even if there are “game/key tutorials”) or if i just like to get lost to see the whole place but the whole thing is driving me crazy! Confusing plus slightly thumb numbing, that’s probably the best way to describe POPR. haha.

Thanks to my brothers i can play games sometimes… haha. I don’t really have time to play anymore so now i’m gonna play during my free time. Weeeeh!

Much like there are no two people alike, so it must be for planets… and so if you care about our planet we should do our small part in taking care of it. Taking care of the Earth means taking care of ourselves and all the other creatures living here.

Where else can we find such beauties as these?

Another planet might yield different landscapes, plants and animals. Another planet may have worse weather or other monsters.  Another habitable planet is a different planet. 

I know we are not on the verge of relocating to another planet but i just think it’s really sad if we let our planet Earth go to waste. So please let us do what we can for our planet. Let us not pollute the waters for it is the most essential thing for all of us. Water is our life. 

Conserve clean water • Throw your waste in trash cans or dispose of your garbage properly (know how to dispose of your trash properly) • Government leaders – from the president to the local barangay officials – should at least make an effort to discipline all of us into not polluting our environment

Wag na kase matigas ang ulo. Tigilan na ang pagiging pasaway. Isipin mo naman ang ginagawa mo. Wag laging puro pera ang isipin dahil ang pera nawawala, magutom ka man may ibang taong tutulong sa’yo. Pero pag ang tubig nawala o naging burak mas malaking gastos ang kakailanganin para malinis ito at muling mainom at magamit ng mabuti. 

Di ko alam ba’t lagi na lang may mga taong walang pakialam. Tapon ng basura dito tapon doon. Kalat lang ng kalat tapos magrereklamo sa baha. Magrereklamo sa baho at dumi ng tubig baha. Magrereklamo dahil hindi makapasok sa opisina o kaya sa paaralan. Hindi dahil nakita mo yung ibang taong pasaway na nagkakalat gagaya ka na lang. Haller?! 

Eto lang masasabi ko. Disiplina at tamang pagtuturo ang kailangan para umunlad ang bayan.

Sa bayan nating Pilipinas maraming pabaya, maraming hindi nadisiplina, maraming hindi nagkaroon ng pagkakataong maturuan ng tamang pag-aasal. Kaya naman madaming walang alam, madaming walang pakialam at madaming walang kamuwang-muwang na ang ginagawa nila ay mali pala o nakakasama sa kalikasan at sa tao. May TV nga pero ano ang pinapakita? Panay kulturang Amerikano. Nagpipilit na magpaka-Kano na mga Pilipino, na pati pag-uugali hindi na halos Pinoy.  May TV nga pero ano ang pinapanood? Mga palabas sa ibang bansa – sa US, sa Japan, sa Korea. Wala daw manonood pag panay pang-buhay kaalaman ang palabas. Mas manonood daw ang tao pag panay chismis at intriga at kalokohan ang palabas. Hindi ko alam kung anong ginagawa ng mga may pera sa pera nila. Tsk. Sayang ang pagkakataong magpalabas ng gaya ng Batibot. Sayang ang pagkakataon na maturuan ang mga bata ng tama at mabuti. Sayang ang pagkakataong malaman ng mga tao ang mga dapat gawin para matigil na ang baha, ang kahirapan, ang polusyon. 

Oo madaling magsalita, pero ang alam ko basta may pera ka kaya mong gawin ang halos lahat. Unang-una na lang bakit hindi pa bayaran ng mga Marcoses at cronies nila ang utang ng Pilipinas? kahit porsyento lang ang mabawas dun malaking ginhawa na yun kahit papa’no dahil liliit ang babayaran nating interes. Alam niyo bang interes lang ang kayang bayaran ng bansa nating Pilipinas? Pa’nong hindi lalong babaon sa hirap ang bansa natin? Walang gustong magbayad ng utang!!! Yung mga taong nangurakot ayaw magbayad! Ang mga nakuha ng gobyerno mula sa Marcoses ang tagal na hindi pa ibinayad sa utang! Haller? Ano bang gusto niyong gawin dun sa yamang yun e “ill-gotten wealth” nga yun!

Ewan ko. Ang gulo. Pwede ba makinig naman kayo. Simulan n lng natin sa sarili ang pagbabago. Pero pano nga ba tayo magbabago na mga Pilipino kung hindi tayo binibigyan ng pagkakataong magbago?

At isa pa, may nagbabasa ba at sumasagot na mga government officials sa mga threads sa forums.gov.ph? Pwede ring makatulong ang mga nakasulat doon. It’s either for National Awareness or para may magawa naman ang kapwa natin para sa ibang tao.  Karamihan na nga ng nandun yata ay puro reklamo. Pero huwag nating isisi sa isang tao ang mga problema. Hindi kaya ng isang tao lutasin lahat ng reklamo. Tulung-tulong yan. Hindi dahil may lider lahat siya na ang may kasalanan o lahat siya na ang gagawa. Gawin din natin ang kaya nating gawin.

Ako hindi ako nagtatapon kung saan saan. Kahit balot lang ng kendi tinatapon ko sa basurahan, nilalagay ko muna sa bag pag wala akong makita kung nasan man ako sa oras na yun.  Ang problema kase sa ibang tao, nakita na ngang may basurahan sa kabila lang itatapon pa rin sa kalsada ang basura. Kahit sa jeep! Nasa unahan lang yung basurahan ng jeepney itatapon pa rin sa bintana ng jeep yung basura. Tamad na, nagkalat pa! Sinong hindi hahaybladin sa mga ganung tao?! Mga walang pakialam! Nakuh. 

Matigil na nga ito. Basta kung sino ka mang nakabasa nito, yang utak at puso paganahin ha! Kung hindi alam, magtanong. Ako nagtatanong din naman kung may hindi alam. Normal lang yun. Magtanong tayo sa nakakaalam, kung walang may alam hanapin natin ang kasagutan! Kung alam na mali bakit itutuloy pang gawin? Matutuong manindigan sa tama!
