I own this domain name, and what made me buy this domain name was because of the idea or www.onedollar.com. At that time, onedollar.com was a hit because of the unique advertising idea of selling pixels, or rather advertising space. But when i visited this website a while ago, it seems to be not available anymore.
OneRinggit.com was initially created as an online ecommerce website, very similar to eBay.com except that everything that is advertised on this website starts selling at RM1. It’s taking too long to process the entire website. I’m actually looking at renting the domain name to the highest bidder. Probably something that’s around RM1,000 per year.
At the moment I’ve parked the domain name using Google Adsense. Everytime someone searches on the oneringgit.com domain name and clicks on one of the available links, I get a few cents out of it. This week alone, oneringgit.com managed to generate USD0.72.
So those who are interested in the domain name, do feel free to email me at webmaster@webthris.com.
Internet Security 2010 Virus
Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010 | Information Technology, Tips | No Comments
My office has been infected by this virus. Basically it pretends to be a Anti Virus software but in turn blocks all the Regedit and Task Manager files. Upon scanning, it will prompt you to purchase their product. This is a spam software, do not register for it.
There are 2 ways to remove this virus, namely the manual method or by installing Spyware Doctor.
I Tried the manual method many times, but was to no avail. The best is th install the Spyware Doctor version 7. They manage to instantly detect the virus and Internet Security 2010 was removed from the computers.
For those who do not want to spend for the Spyware Doctor, you may also search for the crack version which is avaiable at Torrent, go figure
Clickjacking
Wednesday, November 25th, 2009 | Information Technology | No Comments
Have you guys heard of this word before? This is a new word that I learnt today, clickjacking. Clickjacking basically means a program, or software, or probably a virus that can autimatically click a particular button, link etc to allow access to the website. Wikipedia defines it as following, the word was coined by Jeremiah Grossman and Robert Hansen in 2008.
Clickjacking is a malicious technique of tricking Web users into revealing confidential information or taking control of their computer while clicking on seemingly innocuous Web pages.A vulnerability across a variety of browsers and platforms, a clickjacking takes the form of embedded code or script that can execute without the user’s knowledge, such as clicking on a button that appears to perform another function.
I realised that alot of facebook application has this program embedded without the user realising it.
