#get rid of malware removal

[lifesteal-headcanons]

the squiddo virus is back ^_^

if they were to be subjected to an antivirus, it would be torture

see, there is still some good code in there- they wouldnt be able to function properly as a person if they were entirely composed of malware (i mean ive yet to see a computer virus play minecraft lol)

so an antivirus would of course try to preserve the good code and get rid of the bad

but the issue is that its been firmly injected into their code, and is now something they cant live without- so it would be impossible to remove without removing squiddo themselves

but for it to try would be actual torture, because it would feel like something was tearing them apart- this would also cause the potentially painful glitches due to instability

do not antivirus the squiddo!

Did Microsoft drop an update on you that you don't want with Windows 11? Did it come with an AI on your taskbar called 'Copilot'?

Do you not want it?

It's not hard to get rid of! And here's an article that tells you how to unpin that AI bastard, step by step!

(I also got tired of seeing internet news pop up every time I pulled up my INTERNAL search bar just to look for things on my computer, so I googled how to fix that, too. That one was harder, but a comment on a forum post from years ago saved me, so... you CAN force this Windows Malware to operate how you like, and go back to how it used to be and stop being so invasive with internet searches when you don't want them, and AI where you don't want it... with some effort.)

Get the instant and complete solution to get rid of Antionese.co.in malware

[leggerefiore]

At least iron moth Emmet is somewhat civilised. He just needs a way to permanently remove that yandere pack on him.

At least weekly, he gets a USB drive shoved into him to hopefully remove it. (It never works.) Perhaps one day he may be able to get rid of the malware but until then lol

He also hates modern human society, but only because it's not as advanced as the one he's used to. The paradox Emmets true goal is probably to take their partner back to their times alas.

Youtube's insane war with Adblock

Anti Adblock has been the bane of any casual website viewing experience and any website I visits that had those banners is typically written off entirely, and now Youtube is one of them but they take it to a whole nother level. Apparently on the Ublock reddit. They have to routinely change up how they block the banner every couple of days and by extension, you will have to update your ublock every couple of days for it to work and may have to only use Ublock because it can conflict with other blockers.

How did we get here? Oh right, every multi million dollar corporation keeping the lights on with advertisements. Advertisements so bad the our governments actually consider it a good idea to have ad block on because advertisements are a hotbed for malware to speak nothing of deepfakes or outright scam ads that the FTC considers too small a problem to get rid of.

I mean ever since Ross from the game dungeon released his video where he said that Games as a Service are Scams I've been workshopping basically the same sentiment for advertisements.

Companies sell ad space with no expectation that customers will click on the ads, only that for all intents and purposes, they presented the ads to you and are thus owed money for providing that service.

Advertisers dump tens of thousands of dollars just so the advertisement can be clicked on with the possible chance of making a sale as that's the only way to actually get a return on the investment of the advertisement in the first place.

After all a really great product doesn't even need an advertising budget per se. Word of mouth is so powerful, hell, a 7-10 review of a product from a random youtuber generates more attention and sales than a million dollar super bowl advertisement. As long as you get the right Youtuber it's way more cost effective to not have traditional ad spaces.

Not that sponsors are free from guilt. Sponsors are often scams as well. There's been more than a couple sponsored products that were scams but unlike Youtube/Google which can sell ad space to con artists and never suffer an issue, one video from Scott Schafer can convince the youtube community to effectively deplatform a bad product or service.

I mean Raid Shadow Legends still falls through the cracks but it's better than nothing.

But I've been preparing for this, actually a few people have. Louis Rossman has been working on some Manhattan project called Grayjay that will bring multi platform streaming all under one app.

There are of course other streaming platforms with different, more affordable hosting methods as well as ways to monetize content that hopes to not make the same mistakes Youtube makes with budgeting.

There's my method which is downloading every video you think you'll ever want to watch more than once, putting it on a single hard drive and then using some server hosting service like Plex and you just stream your own content to yourself (which by the way is really affordable to do as long as you are okay with 1080p to 360p as higher resolutions on very long videos like streams will soak up a lot of space for what is just one video).

A third method is installing Linux on a machine and gain access to some linux exclusive apps like Freetube which removes the bad aspects of Youtube and only has the videos as well as sponsorblock with no ads to boot (you won't be able to block content though and there's no algorithm so you better know what you want to find because you are on your own for real).

The last method is Vanced. It was supposed to be dead but like a building that's closed 11 months in a year, it sprung to life one day and now lives although you will have to have a android device and learn the side loading method to get it really working.

I've been saying this about Youtube and Twitter X for awhile now but you really should consider a future where Youtube doesn't exist, companies are tightening their budgets across the board, once the advertising firm gets slashed basically everything dependent on it will evaporate. Not enough people will ever use Youtube Red to keep the lights on for Youtube as Youtube's budget is constantly scaling and impossible to price in.

The lost media Youtube will create when it shudders is beyond your comprehension.

How to Speed Up Your Windows 11 PC

1. Manage autostart programs-disable unnecessary startup program.

Here is how to stop a program from starting automatically

Select the Start  button, then select Settings  > Apps  > Startup .In the Startup Apps area, find the program you want to stop from starting automatically and set it to Off.

2. Clear memory via disk cleanup

To delete temporary files:

In the search box on the taskbar, type disk cleanup, and select Disk Cleanup from the list of results.

Select the drive you want to clean up, and then select OK.

Under Files to delete, select the file types to get rid of. To get a description of the file type, select it.

Select OK.

If you need to free up more space, you can also delete system files:

In Disk Cleanup, select Clean up system files.

Select the file types to get rid of. To get a description of the file type, select it.

Select OK.

3. Uninstall obsolete programs

Select the Start  button, then select Settings  > Apps.

Find the programs you don’t need, click on it and then select “uninstall”

4.  Turn off shadows, animations, and visual effects

In the Windows 11 search box, type sysdm.cpl, press Enter, and then click the sysdm.cpl icon. That launches the Control Panel’s System Properties dialog box. Click the Advanced tab and click Settings in the Performance section. That brings you to the Performance Options dialog box. (Make sure you’re on the Visual Effects tab of the dialog box.) You’ll see a varied list of animations and special effects.

These are the animations and special effects you’ll probably want to turn off, because they have the greatest effect on system performance:

Animate controls and elements inside windows

Animate windows when minimizing and maximizing

Animations in the taskbar

Fade or slide menus into view

Fade or slide ToolTips into view

Fade out menu items after clicking

Show shadows under windows

However, it’s a lot easier to just select the Adjust for best performance option at the top of the screen and click OK. Windows 11 will then turn off the effects that slow down your system.

Select the updates you want to install, then select Install.

Restart your PC and see if it seems to run better.

8. Check for low disk space and free up space

You may improve performance if you free some disk space on your PC.

To check for low disk space

Select the Start  button, then select Settings  > System  > Storage . Open Storage settings

Your drives will be listed in the Storage area. Note the amount of free space and total size for each drive.

9. Pause OneDrive Syncing

On the taskbar, look for OneDrive  near the notification area.

Select OneDrive  > Help & Settings  > Pause syncing,and then choose how long you want to pause syncing your files.

10.  Check for and remove viruses and malware

Running a system scan to find viruses and malware. If you’ve already installed a security suite such as Norton Security or McAfee LiveSafe, you can use that. Windows 11’s built-in anti-malware app, Windows Defender, also does a great job. 

Just type Windows Defender in the search box, press Enter, and click Scan Now. Windows Defender will look for malware and remove any it finds.

11. Last but not the least , if your have a non-genuine Windows 11 on your computer , please activate it with a genuine Windows 11 Key from the Microsfot partner store keyingo.com

Different Steps of Incident Response When There’s a Cybersecurity Breach

Experts use the term “incident response” to refer to the process of promptly addressing a security incident. A successful incident response will minimise the impact of such incidents on your organisation. This write-up talks about the various phases of incident response when there’s a cybersecurity beach. Step 1: The Phase of Preparation

During this phase, you will check whether every employee has the training to play their incident response responsibilities perfectly during data breaches. As part of your preparation, you must conduct regular drills by creating mock incident response situations. Finally, you must get the best cyber incident response checklist ready to ensure you have all the required resources to face such an adverse situation.

Step 2: The Phase of Identification

In this phase, you will have to find out whether there’s a data breach in your organisation. Once you identify any such issues, you must appoint your security experts to find out the source of the breach and the kind of impact it has already had or may have on your operations.  

Step 3: The Phase of Containment

When there’s a data breach, never commit the mistake of deleting everything. It will make things even more complicated as you will not have any evidence left to spot the source of the breach. If you don’t know where the problem started, devising an effective plan will be impossible. So, instead of deleting things, you must take steps to contain the breach so that it doesn’t spread any further.

Step 4: The Phase of Eradications

After containing the issue successfully, you will have to identify its root cause and get rid of it. In other words, this phase is about removing all malware securely.

Step 5: The Phase of Recovery

By now, your incident response plan is successful. Now, your job would be to restore the affected devices and systems so that they can work as effectively as before. During this phase, you must ensure that your business starts to operate exactly in the way it used to before the breach.

Final Words

Now that everything is normal again, you must organise a meeting with the entire incident response team to discuss things you have learnt from the breach. This will help you design an incident response tabletop exercise to prevent further breaches.

Going to repost something I sent in a discord chat as I've been thinking about it for a while.

Regarding Windows as malware: if any other piece of software sent your information to unknown places without your full consent, presented you with ads that you can't get rid of easily where there never used to be ads before, and installed unwanted files and software on your hard drive that are difficult to remove you'd never use it.

Google Play Store Delete App will ban Inferior Android apps

Google Play Store Delete App

Google has announced a large-scale Play Store cleanse with the goal of improving security and user experience. On August 31, 2024, an initiative to remove apps that don’t satisfy the platform’s increasing standards will be launched in just six weeks. The campaign is focused on low-quality and spammy apps.

This purge comes just in time for Android 15 to roll out, which introduces more stringent requirements for app quality. Now let’s examine this in more detail for both users and developers.

Why is there an app cleanup?

Having millions of apps, the Play Store can occasionally give the impression of being a congested market. The large selection it provides nevertheless, customers may find it annoying to scroll through old or subpar apps. Due to their potential for viruses or misleading features, these apps may also be dangerous for your security.

Google recognises this issue. They have made a commitment to creating a more efficient and safe app ecosystem by eliminating non-compliant apps. Among the expected advantages are the following:

Improved User Experience: Google hopes to offer users a more carefully selected app selection by getting rid of low-quality apps. As a result, browsing will go more smoothly, with an emphasis on useful and intuitive applications.

Increased Security: Removing phishing attempts, malware, and data breaches from consumers’ devices is one way to improve security. For consumers to browse and download apps, this creates a safer atmosphere.

Google’s action appears to be an attempt to align the Play Store’s quality standards with those of Apple’s App Store, which is renowned for its more stringent app review procedures.

Which Apps Are Removed from the Store?

Some app categories that are probably going to be targeted are listed below, while Google hasn’t given a comprehensive list:

Non-Functional Apps: Apps with serious flaws, infrequent crashes, or a deficiency in featured functionalities will probably be removed.

Apps that are considered spam may be removed. These include those with deceptive titles, an excessive amount of unnecessary advertising, or ambiguous goals.

Apps that are out of date: Purging of apps that are not compatible with the latest versions of Android and have not been updated in a long time may occur.

Apps with little user engagement or downloads are maybe best suited for deletion.

What is Required of Developers

The following advice will help developers who have apps available on the Play Store get ready for the impending app removal:

Analyse the Google Play Developer Policies to make sure your application complies with the most recent Play Store Developer Policy. App functionality, content, and user experience are outlined in these policies.

Upgrade Your Application: In your app, take care of any bugs, compatibility problems, or missing features. Update your programme frequently to show users that you are committed to its further development.

Improve the content and description of your app: Be sure to use wording that is clear and concise while accurately describing the functionality of your app. A clear value offer for users should be your first priority.

Boost Interest in Users: In-app features, upgrades, and community development can all be used to foster user interaction. This indicates that the app is successful and has a loyal user base.

Effect on Consumers

There may be fewer apps available in the Play Store as a result of the app removal, but consumers may still anticipate the following benefits:

Less irrelevant or subpar apps mean easier app discovery, making it easier to locate the apps you need.

Diminished Security Hazards: When harmful apps are eliminated from the Play Store, there is a decreased likelihood of coming across malware or data breaches.

Put an emphasis on High-Quality programmes: Users can anticipate a more carefully chosen range of programmes that give top priority to security, usability, and usefulness.

It’s crucial to remember that some users can find themselves missing certain programmes to which they have grown accustomed. Though these disadvantages probably exceed the overall advantages of a safer and more user-friendly Play Store.

The Way Forward

A dedication to a more stable and secure Play Store is shown by Google’s initiative to remove apps. For Android users, Google creates a more reliable app ecosystem by putting an emphasis on high-quality apps and user safety. Even while some app developers may struggle to meet the new requirements, developers and customers will benefit in the long run. This update will help the Play Store compete with app retailers with stricter quality assurance.

It’s also important to remember that this app removal procedure probably won’t end soon. Google will make sure the Play Store keeps up a high calibre of quality by regularly assessing apps for compliance. Google is likely to improve its app rating standards as technology advances and customer expectations shift. This guarantees a dynamic ecosystem of apps that adjust to the constantly shifting demands of the mobile market.

Bitdefender: The Ultimate Tool for Secure Online Transactions

Bitdefender is the leading antivirus software on the market, providing superior threat prevention and security. Since 2024, Bitdefender has been ranked one of the best antivirus software companies. It routinely produces outstanding results in independent lab testing, is less costly than its rivals, and contains practical security measures. Bitdefender has a cloud-based engine, and during my testing, the scans were less resource-intensive and more efficient than those of other antivirus companies. Among its subscription options are extra utilities, including online protection, VPN, password manager, and more. Rating: 4.6★★★★★ Overall rank: #3 out of #25 Price: From $29.99/year Free version: Yes Platforms: Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, Linux Introducing Bitdefender Bitdefender is considered to be among the best antivirus software providers. Independent lab tests show that it always works very well. It's also less expensive than its competitors and has valuable security features. During my tests, Bitdefender's scans were faster and used fewer resources than other antivirus providers. This is because Bitdefender's engine is in the cloud. Its expensive plans come with extra tools like a VPN, a password manager, web security, and more. Bitdefender has many great features, but it could still be better. Most of the tools work well, but the VPN only lets you send 200MB of data per device unless you pay extra for the Premium Security Plan. Also, tools like web protection could work better. Pros Cons Best-in-class virus identification Limited VPN usage on most plans Included VPN Fewer features for iOS and macOS Fits your hardware requirements rather loosely Web protection doesn't always work Excellent marks on tests of independence Incompatible with other security software System updates automated Password manager in hand First-rate client assistance Bitdefender Safety Features Bitdefender has a lot of valuable tools that are meant to keep your devices safe. The main tools are a firewall, malware scanner, ransomware removal, VPN, and password organizer. When you use these tools together, they protect you from many different threats. The firewall keeps an eye on all links to and from your device, and the malware scanner finds any bad software and gets rid of it. Ransomware removal keeps your files from being locked by ransomware threats, and the VPN keeps your online activities private. A password manager is an extra layer of protection that helps you make and remember strong passwords. Usage And Performance Details of Bitdefender Bitdefender can be hard to set up at first, but the software is small and easy to use once it's done. It's easy for people who aren't tech-savvy to use because the interface is well-thought-out. The dashboard can be changed, and users can add "quick actions" for tools they use often. Because it is so easy to use and quick, users shouldn't have any significant problems after downloading. During my testing, I looked at how Bitdefender affects the device's speed while it checks and does other things. The results were better than good enough. Bitdefender's scans are quick and don't use too many system resources, so your device will still work well even while being checked for security issues. Bitdefender is an excellent choice for people who want strong protection without slowing down their devices. Bitdefender Detailed Plans Described Bitdefender is well-known for its reasonably priced subscription options. It even provides a free plan and a 30-day money-back guarantee for consumers needing minimal protection. Installable on one device, the entry-level paid option, the Antivirus Plus plan, starts at $29.99 annually. This adaptability lets users select a scheme that meets their security requirements and financial constraints. Bitdefender has four different plans to meet various needs: Free Plan: This plan covers one device and works with Windows, macOS, and Android. It gives you free essential security tools. AVG Antivirus Plus costs $29.99 a year and covers one device. This plan is made for Windows users. It comes with a malware scanner, a safe browser, a VPN (with a daily limit of 200 MB), a password manager, an anti-tracker, a file shredder, and customer service available 24/7.

The most complete plan costs $49.99 annually and protects up to five Windows, macOS, Android, or iOS devices. It has all the features of the Internet Security plan plus tools to clean up your system and defend against theft.

This package comes with a fee of $49.99 yearly. Note: Bitdefender also provides a free version for Windows and MacOS users. The free plan offers real-time protection and a virus check, among other minimum safeguards. Comprehensive Technical Descriptions of Bitdefender Bitdefender's firewall guarantees improved network security by controlling inbound and outgoing connections depending on established criteria and blocking illegal access. Users may personally change these settings to gain more control over their network security. Anti-theft This function provides thorough gadget protection using the following: Remote Location: Shows device location even in off-state. Remote lock and wipe devices lock or erase device data remotely, therefore preventing data access. Remote Alarm: Sets off an alert to aid in device location.

Bitdefender offers consistent security for your devices, whether you choose the free edition or one of the paid ones. FAQs Is Bitdefender legitimate and safe?
