Removing invalid entry from "Add and remove program" of window.

I'm still in the midst of cleaning up my laptop after the virus attacked. And happened to find out there are some invalid entries in my "add and remove program". Invalid in the sense that, the programs were uninstall, but still being captured in "add and remove program" under the Control Panel.

So, in order to remove these entries, do manually according to below steps. But always back up a copy in case something goes wrong.
* Click Start -> Run and type regedit.exe
* Scroll until you find the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Uninstall

Note: Here you will see many sub entries, ad each sub entries/subkey represents a program that you've installed. To find out which program that each key represents, click the key, and look at the value of "DisplayName" in the right panel
* Select the right subkey & right-click on the subkey, choose Delete
* Repeat the process until you have finish
* Close Registry Editor
If still there are some programs unable to clean, there are some tools can help to do so, just googling with keywords like "windows installer clean up" or so..

Vulnerability, another form of virus threats

Facing these vulnerability threats while scanning for both win32.tenga.a and win32.tenga.b

Again, look for these info thru web. According to certain articles & discussed forums, the vulnerabilities that was detected are programs we have installed that need to be updated. Those programs can be a security risk if they are not updated. However, some said to turn off this scan functions, some choose not to upgrade. Whatever it is, up to us to decide.

I got a few for some of the program, for firefox, I got vulnerability 36671, which solution provided is to upgrade to version 3.0.14 or 3.5.3. Ms office too..all of these can get from this useful website: secunia

System Volume Information

This is a hidden folder under the OS. As previous blog mentioned, I had a virus disaster, that so difficult to clean it. I scan and re-scan and scan...still there are some viruses exist somewhere in my hard disk. This drive me to look really carefully on my scanned report.

Finally, my attention was being captured by full list of .exe files under this system volume information folder. In the virus scanned report stated that, those files inside this folder was still affected by win32.tenga.a & win32.b

So, no choice that to delete these files, after all, I don't really know why they were in this folder. However, did little searching on the web, and found the related useful info on this web page. Have a look for further understanding if in need. http://bertk.mvps.org/html/tips.html#15

In this web page, included topics like way how to gain access to this folder, to remove certain files, or to find out the usage of SVI and etc.

For my case, this virus issue really have use lots of my time to clean them up, so i just removed them all. Not sure it is a good way or not, but fast.

Terrible bad virus--win32.tenga.a & win32.tenga.b

I had a very bad virus attacked on my laptop from wins32.tenga.a & wns32.tenga.b, as recognized by Kaspersky Lab.

They just kept replicated themselves thru file name extension ended .Exe.

At the beginning, what I have noticed was, there was a program name dl.exe, suddenly pop-up saying the NTVDM cpu has encountered an illegal instruction somewhere, with a standard Dos black screen. When I saw this message, nothing much I can do, and just force self to close it, and do little searching on the web, for knowing why behaved so.

At the same time, my laptop was getting slower and slower, and many of the programs were not able to run. Quickly, I get my virus software working for me, but anyhow was too late, as mostly of my .exe files were got effected.

Therefore, no choice left for me except to re-format my computer and ghost back the previous copy. With this, I thought will able to “kill” all those viruses, once I run my virus software again at the very beginning. But, too bad to say those viruses got replicated on my 2nd hard disk, which meant to be a file storage.

In other word, even formatting also unable to get back my stable system, and now I have to also remove or delete off those affected .exe files too, in my 2nd hard disk. This is really killing me and my laptop as well.. Disaster man….

No doubt, I hate viruses…in whatever form, wherever they are. I just….. hate…. them.

二十多页的一封信

人生活到今时今日, 没想过会写一封长达二十页的信。而且,有邮寄出去的一封信。这封信比我写大学论文的proposal还要长哦!大学论文的proposal才十来页。

这封信是写给我的一位朋友。一位,一直都以书信来往的朋友。一位,曾经失去联络的人。信里谈的都是近年来的生活感想,那一段失去联络的空白。写着信的同时,自己曾想到那收信人的心情会是如何?。。那么长的一封信?那么多页。会读累吗?烦不烦?。。虽然心里如此想, 但信件还是寄出去了。

写完信件的时后,也寄上一本自己做的小记事簿。记事簿里,填满着自己对那友情的一些记忆与怀念。和,纪念那将满二十年的感情。

信和友谊记事簿是寄出去了,但, 却没敢去了解收信人的看法。因为,自己真很少动手去做东西,想到要做,就得真要很用心去做;而且,对自己要求过高,总觉得做出来的东西,都不完美。但,自己竟然还是为这友谊做了。

现在回想这事, 因为我又想念起我这友人。。。不知这友人可好?

*************************
这辈子都不再写如此般长的信了。
很累人。写的人累,看的人也累。。呵。。

朋友。。的辛酸

这些年,一个人, 风也过, 雨也走。。。

听着周华健唱着这首歌时, 勾起了我小时交友的情形。虽然这首歌名为“朋友”, 但我只记得以上的那一行。记忆中,在上学的日子里,我并没有所谓的好朋友。同班的朋友是有的。

小学以后,我的记忆里,朋友们都是吵来吵去, 骂来骂去。今天说你这样,明天说你那样。 今天和你好, 明天。。明天再说吧!真不懂他们累不累呢?我是好累啊!因为当时,衣食住行里的食,是我每天都烦恼的事情。在那种日子里,吃都吃不饱的时候,他们的心情却是吵来吵去,有的没有的, 真是侈奢。

到了中学,朋友间的感情是升华了。对, 他们和他们间的感情是升华了。我依然好像是中间人的角色,穿梭在他们之间。不是很方便的,却也是无更好的选择。

然后,时间是如此的过了去。

(其实,那些日子,是自己的生活与思想,已不再是适合那种单纯的世界。)
*************************
在一个很伤心的心情和糟糕的情形下听到这歌曲,然后想到自己一路走到现在,真是很累,也很挫折。此时,想到身边的友人,很希望有那样的朋友,静静地,听一听想说的话。但原来,我能信任的人并不多。还要配上好的时机,地点和正确的人。好难!

我想,身为我朋友的也很累吧, 认识一个这样的人。
一个总是在角落里静静的只是用眼睛来看的人。
我想,这样静静的出现总好过没出现吧?

到底要怎样?

躲,
在无法再隐秘的地方。
退,
一退再退到墙角角边边缘。
藏,
在千万人的眼后最黑暗的角落。

但。。
给不喜欢你的人,
给不满意你的人,
不论是躲。。
不论是退。。
不论是藏。。
到哪
都还是做不够。

这些人还是会找尽办法
伤害你;
刺激你;
取笑你;

究竟这些人不累吗?
究竟这些人没别的事做吗?

****************************
有些情况,为了那更好的结果,躲藏退;虽然不是很积极的一个步伐,但某些情况下,不得不承认,那也是一种处事的方法。

静不下来

心,静不下来。
哪里,都不安全。哪里,都不安全。哪里,都不安全。
哪里,都得要逃跑。都得要逃跑。都得要逃跑。
哪里,都不能待。都不能待。都不能待。
心,怎能静下来?
心静不下来,如何能定下来?
定不下来,如何作息。

心,静不下来。
哪里,都不安全。都不安全。都不安全。
哪里,都得要逃跑。都得要逃跑。都得要逃跑。
哪里,都不能待。都不能待。都不能待。
哪里,
哪里,
哪里。。
哪里。。是最终的家?
最终的家在哪? 。。在哪?

心,静不下来。
心,静不下来。
心,静不下来。

心,定不下来。
心,定不下来。
心,定不下来。

*************************
这么多年了,这样的感觉,都还存在;不管是再多忙碌的生活。
insecure. insecure. insecure. 安全感。
我很努力的去改变,甚至抛弃它远远地,但原来,它已成为了一种自然。

自然到有人开口问我:“和我在一起,你很不安全吗?为什么你总是需要抱着。。。。”
我,哑口无言相对。

台湾八八事件/Flood disaster, Taiwan

This was the scene that alerted me about the flood disaster happened in Taiwan, about a month plus ago. I was stun looking at this TV news at that time. During the news, I saw this hotel was falliing ...down.. and my minds gone empty with an open mouth…”arrrr…oh god”

Ya, I could only “arrr….oh god” at that moment, frightening and sad. How many people died in this disaster, lost....sick......I don't wish do know...really....too sad to be known...but I choose to pray for them。。。

Other than Taiwan, places like Burkina Faso, Istanbul too having flood disaster.

Well, the earth is seem to signaling that she is sicks! And hoping that we have find ways to cure her...

人生,只是一个过程。
Life Is a process.

相爱,是接受。接受,是爱的其一表现。
To love,is to accept. Acceptance is a form of love.
生活;就是将生与死,连接的一条线
Between live and death, there is a line connecting them both, which is call Life
思想决定行动,行动决定习惯,习惯决定品德,品德决定命运。
sow a thought, reap an action;sow an action, reap a habit;sow a habit, reap a character; sow a character, reap a destiny.
相信,就会还有。
不相信, 就连有得都变没有。.
希望。。在人间!
"事情是这样,就不会是别样“。。
很多事情,因为某些障碍,我表达和反应不来,但我真得很用心去想和做。。。

Thanks for visiting!
