Today’s free download: Emsisoft Emergency Kit 3.0 is now available. Free portable malware killer with even better detection.
Emsisoft Emergency Kit contains a collection of four programs to detect and remove malware. Version 3 is now available, and as always, completely free of charge for private users. Greater detection is the primary improvement, with Emsisoft Emergency Kit now using the same scan engine as Emsisoft Anti-Malware 7.0. You can launch the kit directly from a CD or USB stick without installation.
Note: I do not advise this tool if you are an “average computer user”, but for the experienced and savvy (aka, if you have been cleaning malware for a while already) who already have a ‘portable toolkit on a stick’.

Another iPad upgrade? Didn’t they just release one last month? (This one is improved, tho.. ahem.)
I’ll leave you with some advice loyal readers will recognize: don’t buy the first version of any thing.

• About Tech Paul
I am a Retired computer & network technician. I used to think the machines were pretty cool. Now I don’t.
They’re anything but.
I regularly posted how-to’s and tricks & tips and general computing advice here starting in 2007. (Use the Search tool to find answers. But be aware, many are rather dated.) Sometimes I answered (your) specific questions in an article if I believed the answer was generally helpful to “everyone”. All the writing you see was my own, typos and all. There always is/was an implied “IMHO” in what you see here.
Note: You are responsible for using this blog and its content. I am in no way liable for any losses caused by user error, viruses and/or other malware, hardware or software failure, or any other conceivable reason.

No iPad joy here…
I am going to take advantage of this deal @ BitsDuJour. The way things are going this could come in handy. Plus a few laughs at the end…
Now for a few laughs….
LG wanted to show the world that their IPS monitors are “lifelike”. So they proceeded to replace the floor of an elevator with a bunch of LG IPS monitors. (They didn’t actually replace the floor per se — the monitors are on top of the floor.) Then when people rode the elevator, the monitors showed a floor dropping animation, essentially showing the passengers what they would see if the elevator had no floor. And, as I’m sure you can guess, it scared the crap out of most everyone. Check it out:

There is so much I could say … But mostly, I am reminded of a Churchill quote: “The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.”
