Updating ESET Smart Security and ESET NOD32 Virus Definition with Smart Way

ESET is my favourite AV since this product receive the best AV 2006, 2007 and still top ten the best AV in 2008.


I'm using ESET product not just because that award, but also because this ESET doesn't make my system slower like Norton does.


ESET has 2 main product which is :
1. NOD32 Antivirus (the latest is ver 3)
This is an anti virus product
2. Eset Smart Security (the latest is ver 3)
This is an anti virus plus anti spyware, anti malware, and personal firewall in one bundling product.


Now back to topic, the problem with ESET is updating the latest virus definition with the slow connection (like mine). If you have unlimited, stable and fast internet connection you can leave this article now.


Still following this article ?


Okay for you who have unlimited, but slow internet connection (just like my office) here is the step :
1. Open your ESET Smart Security or NOD32 Antivirus
2. Press F5 to open configuration
3. Select update tab
4. Click Edit
5. Try one of the following server list
* http://gxrg.org/eset_upd/ (For ESET Smart Security ver 3)
* http://gxrg.org/nod_upd/ (For NOD32 Antivirus ver 3)
6. Update now.


Now for you with very limited internet connection (dial up) here is the step :
1. Download tools for offline browsing or site mirroring (in this case, im using Teleport Pro)
2. Run the program
3. Click "New Project Wizard"
4. Choose "Create a Browseable copy of a website on my hard drive"
5. Enter one of the following url
* http://gxrg.org/eset_upd/ (For ESET Smart Security ver 3)
* http://gxrg.org/nod_upd/ (For NOD32 Antivirus ver 3)
6. Choose "Everything"
7. Click finish
8. Run the project to retrieve the file and choose location to save your file
6. When all file downloaded, open your ESET Smart Security or NOD32 Antivirus
7. Press F5 to open configuration
8. Enter the path you saved earlier
9. Update now
10. For daily update, you don't have to waste another 18MB++, just open your Teleport project and click "Update Now". This method compare the file between your computer and server and make sure download only the newest file.

Oracle ADF Faces Template in JDev 10g

My project (maybe almost project need this) require a template so when developing user interface, developer no need repeat adding banner, logo, application title, footer, etc. SRDemo example teach me to create template.jspx file and then copy paste this template to another jspx file. This is bad idea, because if somehow my logo changed, then i need to modified ALL of my jspx file.


So i'm start Googling to research about this. But sadly Oracle does not officially support ADF template in JDev 10g. JDev 11g does, but after some consideration we,re using JDev 10g.


After a bit research led me to ADF Region. But like i said, this is not supported so it's not covered in Oracle ADF Developer Guide book. Thanks to Edwin Biemond blog and AMIS blog to contribute great article about ADF Region.

The Real Story Why Microsoft Needs Yahoo

So one day, Scott McNealy, founder and chairman of Sun, read in his morning newspaper how the use of Java was rapidly diminishing, courtesy of something called 'The LAMP Stack'. Furiously, he called his accountant.

Scott: "I knew this Java thing was a bad idea in the first place! I see only one solution. We need to buy this Lamp!"
Accountant: "Euh, LAMP is not a company. It's an acronym. It's Linux , Apache, MySQL and PHP"
Scott: "Then buy me Linux!"
Accountant: "But we still have this Solaris thing.."
Scott: "Then buy me Apache!"
Accountant: "That's a foundation. Nothing to buy there."
Scott: "Then buy me MySQL!"
Accountant: "We don't do databases."
Scott: "It's a database?"
Accountant: "What rock have you been living under?"
Scott: "Sweet. I can own the Lamp AND piss off Oracle at the same time!" (waves fake plastic magic wand) "Make it so!"


And so it happened.

Ten days later, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer was reading the CIO Magazine, and read about this interesting thing called PHP, that according to the author you could use to write "WHAT?!". "WHAT?!", obviously a highly advanced and evolved version of "Hello World", caught his attention. So he called Bill Gates.

Steve: "Hey, you heard about this PHP thing?"
Bill: "Pee Age Pee? You're not that old yet, are you?"
Steve: "What? No, wait, it's a programming language, apparently better than ASP.NET."
Bill: "Who cares if it's better. I mean; we made the worst operating systems ever and still rule. (Checked out Leopard yet? It is SO cool.)"
Steve: "I don't know Bill... remember that internet thing that we didn't know about years ago? Kind of nearly missed the boat there."
Bill: "Right. Didn't we solve that in the same way? Worst browser, highest market share, that sort of thing?"
Steve: "Yes we did, but then we also didn't know about this 'mp3' thing until it was too late."
Bill: "We did manage to make Zune the worst player, but somehow we're not market leader. Guess we got sloppy?"
Steve: "Maybe it's just different times. Maybe we should have a different strategy."
Bill: "Ok, so let's just buy PHP then."
Steve: "It's not a company. But Encarta says it's written by a Rasmus Lerdorf."
Bill: "So let's hire him."
Steve: "Tried that. Didn't want to join. Can't blame him, works at Yahoo."
Bill: "Then I guess we'll have to buy Yahoo."


So it happened.

Two of the most controversial announcements of this month, and both appear to be part of devious plots to take over the LAMP stack. What's next? My prediction: Red-Hat buys Zend; Oracle buys Red-Hat; Sun and IBM join forces to buy Oracle, Microsoft buys Sun, kills IBM and peace is restored in the galaxy.

P.S. Can you imagine Microsoft running sites like Flickr? These guys invented MS Paint!

Sun Microsystem buy MySQL

Sun Microsystems has agreed to buy MySQL AB for $1B, giving them additional leverage in the open source community and providing access to MySQL to its larger corporations. The deal is expected to close during the third or fourth quarter.

The grand question, of course, is: what does this mean in the long term? Sun already offers JavaDB as a smaller-scale DB (compared to 'large offerings' like Oracle9 and IMS). Is Sun merely diversifying its own portfolio, looking for an additional revenue stream from MySQL AB's customers, or shifting away from JavaDB/Derby? Consider the following quote from Sun's press release:
