Coffee-proof keyboard launched
Texan peripheral maker Econokeys has announced the EK-97-TP, a full-size keyboard with a built in touch-pad which is aimed at hospitals and other places where nasty fluids could be flying around.
The company reckons that the average mouse or keyboard in a shared environment can harbour 70 times more bacteria than a toilet seat. Most of us are about as likely to lick either.
The keyboard has fully sealed keys and has no seams or crevices, meaning it is resistant to splashing, hose directed fluids (stop sniggering at the back) and even full submersion.
Anyone who has been through dozens of keyboards killed by coffee would be more than happy to pay the hefty $156 price tag to not have to go through the anguish of mopping up a spilled beverage and praying that it didn't get deep into the innards of yet another keyboard.
The keyboard will deal with all sorts of other flying fluids as well. Like, um, bleach and disinfectant.
Kingston launches 256GB thumb drive
Memory maker Kingston is flogging an unfeasibly large thumb drive with an equally unbelievable price tag.
The Data Traveller 310 includes security software which allows you to lock down all or part of the diminutive drive's humongous 256GB capacity.
But you'll need deep, and preferably very secure, pockets to warrant shelling out the $860 asking price.
With one UK survey reporting that 9,000 USB sticks turn up every year at dry cleaners alone, this gadget could lead to some very costly mistake.
Apple confirms April 3rd iPad launch dateApple confirms April 3rd iPad launch date
Apple today officially announced that the iPad will be available in the US on Saturday, April 3, for Wi-Fi models and in late April for Wi-Fi + 3G models.
All models will be available in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Spain, Switzerland and the UK at the same time in late April.
The delay to the European roll-out is more likely to do with securing complicated multi-national airtime contracts than rumoured production problems.
Pre orders will begin on March 12th in the US on the devices which range from $500 for the the 16GB wifi-only model up to a 64GB wifi and 3G equipped version for $830.
Twitter Reaches 10 Billionth Tweet Milestone
Popular microblogging website Twitter has revealed that it has served its 10 billionth tweet last night at 1am GMT, one which was sent from a protected profile and which shall remain a mystery forever.
Unlike the marketing campaign by Apple a few days earlier to find out who was the one who downloaded their 10 billionth track from iTunes, Twitter did not dish out any voucher or prizes to the person who did it.
Gigatweet, a service whose sole purpose is to count Twitter messages, calculated Twitter will produce its 20 billionth twitter by October 2010 and is currently growing at the rate of roughly 66 million per tweet per day.
Twitter said last month that back in 2007, there were 5000 tweets a day, the year later, that reached 300,000 and in 2009, that number reached 2.5 million a day. Now this has reached more than 760 tweets a second.
The three-year old website is already the 12th most visited website on the internet. In comparison though Windows Live Messenger records nine billion messages per day and 1.5 billion conversations.
Microsoft's Pink phone looks increasingly real
Long-running rumours of Microsoft developing its own mobile phones, with the Pink project being the latest candidate, could become a reality next month. How many people might be interested in buying the things is another matter…

Panda USB and AutoRun Vaccine
The Microsoft Windows Operating Systems use the AUTORUN.INF file from removable drives in order to know which actions to perform when a new external storage device, such as a USB drive or CD/DVD, is inserted into the PC. The AUTORUN.INF file is a configuration file that is normally located in the root directory of removable media and contains, among other things, a reference to the icon that will be shown associated to the removable drive or volume, a description of its content and also the possibility to define a program which should be executed automatically when the unit is mounted.
The problem is that this feature, widely critizised by the security community, is used by malware in order to spread by infecting as soon as a new drive is inserted in a computer. The malware achieves this by copying a malicious executable in the drive and modifying the AUTORUN.INF file so that Windows opens the malicious file silently as soon as the drive is mounted. The most recent examples of this are the W32/Sality, W32/Virutas and also the W32/Conficker worm which, in addition to spreading via a vulnerability and network shares, also spreads via USB drives.
Due to the large amount of malware-related problems associated with Microsoft AutoRun we have created a free utility for our user community called Panda USB Vaccine.

.
Computer Vaccination
The free Panda USB Vaccine allows users to vaccinate their PCs in order to disable AutoRun completely so that no program from any USB/CD/DVD drive (regardless of whether they have been previously vaccinated or not) can auto-execute. This is a really helpful feature as there is no user friendly and easy way of completely disabling AutoRun on a Windows PC.
USB Vaccination
The free Panda USB Vaccine can be used on individual USB drives to disable its AUTORUN.INF file in order to prevent malware infections from spreading automatically. When applied on a USB drive, the vaccine permanently blocks an innocuous AUTORUN.INF file, preventing it from being read, created, deleted or modified. Once applied it effectivelly disables Windows from automatically executing any malicious file that might be stored in that particular USB drive. The drive can otherwise be used normally and files (even malware) copied to/from it, but they will be prevented from opening automatically. Panda USB Vaccine currently only works on FAT & FAT32 USB drives. Also keep in mind that USB drives that have been vaccinated cannot be reversed except with a format.

Command line Operation
.
For advanced users who wish to run Panda USB Vaccine automatically at boot to notify every time a new USB device is mounted on the system or to perform network-wide computer vaccinations via login scripts or other distribution methods, Panda USB Vaccine can be operated via command-line. Its input parameters are the following:
For advanced users who wish to run Panda USB Vaccine automatically at boot to notify every time a new USB device is mounted on the system or to perform network-wide computer vaccinations via login scripts or other distribution methods, Panda USB Vaccine can be operated via command-line. Its input parameters are the following:
USBVaccine.exe [ ABC…Z ] [ +system-system ] [ /resident [/hidetray] ]
[drive unit]: Vaccinate drive unit+system : Computer vaccination-system : Remove computer vaccination/resident: Start program hidden and prompt for vaccinating every new drive/hidetray: Hides tray icon when used with the /resident command
Examples:To vaccinate USB drives F:\ and G:\,
use USBVaccine.exe F G
To vaccinate the computer,
use USBVaccine.exe +system
To vaccinate computer and prompt for vaccinating every new drive without showing a tray icon, use
USBVaccine.exe /resident /hidetray +system
It could be very useful to create a Shortcut in the Startup folder to USBVaccine.exe with this last command line (or without the /hidetray) to make sure that every time you boot the computer USBVaccine gets loaded by the system and it vaccinates the computer and prompts the user for vaccinating any new non-vaccinated USB drive. However if you do this under Vista, UAC will block it from running at Startup as it requires admin priviledges. We’ll fix this in future versions.

Windows 7 Keyboard Shortcuts
Windows 7 Keyboard Shortcuts
Let's kick off with keyboard shortcuts – the first thing every power user must memorize with working with a new operating system. In Windows 7, we’ve uncovered several new sets of essential time-saving shortcuts that will make your mouse jealous with neglect.
Alt + P
Similar to the shortcut above, hitting these three keys while a window is active will stretch it vertically to the maximum desktop height. The width of the window will however stay the same. Pressing Windows + Down will restore it to its previous size.
Windows + Left
Windows + Right
Windows + Home
This shortcut performs a similar function to hovering over a window’s peek menu thumbnail in the Taskbar. The active window will stay on your desktop while every other open application is minimized. Pressing this shortcut again will restore all the other windows.
Windows + E
Automatically opens up a new Explorer window to show your Libraries folder.
Windows + P
Manage your multiple-monitor more efficiently with this handy shortcut. Windows + P opens up a small overlay that lets you configure a second display or projector. You can switch from a single monitor to dual-display in either mirror or extend desktop mode.
Like Alt + Tab (still our all time favorite Windows specific shortcut), Windows + T cycles through your open programs via the Taskbar’s peek menu.
Windows + Space
This combo performs the same function as moving your mouse to the bottom right of the Taskbar. It makes every active window transparent so you can view your desktop. The windows only remain transparent as long as you’re holding down the Windows key.

Alt + P
In Windows Explorer, activate an additional file preview pane to the right side of the window with this new shortcut. This panel is great for previewing images in your photos directory.
Windows + + (plus key)
Windows + - (minus key)
Pressing the Windows and plus or minus keys activates the Magnifier, which lets you zoom in on the entire desktop or open a rectangular magnifying lens to zoom in and out of parts of your screen. You can customize the Magnifier options to follow your mouse pointer or keyboard cursor. Keep in mind that so far, the Magnifier only works when Aero desktop is enabled.
Windows + Up
Windows + Down
If a window is not maximized, pressing Windows + Up will fill it to your screen. Windows + Down will minimize that active window. Unfortunately, pressing Windows + Up again while a window is minimized won’t return it to its former state.
Windows + Shift + Up

Windows + Left
Windows + Right
One of the new features of Windows 7 is the ability to automatically make a window fill up half of your screen by dragging to the left or right. This pair of shortcuts performs the same function without your mouse. Once a window is fixed to one side of the screen, you can repeat the shortcut to flip it to the other side. This is useful if you’re extending a desktop across multiple monitors, which prevents you from executing this trick with a mouse.
Windows + Home
This shortcut performs a similar function to hovering over a window’s peek menu thumbnail in the Taskbar. The active window will stay on your desktop while every other open application is minimized. Pressing this shortcut again will restore all the other windows.

Windows + Shift + Right
If you are using two or more displays (and who isn’t, these days?), memorize this shortcut to easily move a window from one screen to the other. The window retains its size and relative position on the new screen, which his useful when working with multiple documents. Utilize that real estate!

Windows + [Number]
Programs (and new instances) pinned to your Taskbar can be launched by hitting Windows and the number corresponding to its placement on the Taskbar. Windows + 1, for example, launches the first application, while Windows + 4 will launch the fourth. We realize that this is actually one key-press more than just clicking the icon with your mouse, but it saves your hand the trouble of leaving the comfort of the keyboard.
