Dropbox 2.0.2 has been released to address a few bugs on Mac and Windows.
Two outstanding bugs that the Dropbox team are still working on:
Platform: Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7.
Symptoms, but not limited to:
After long troubleshooting sessions I figured out that a bootkit was present on this computer.
A bootkit hides itself by modifying the master boot record.
The particular bootkit I was dealing with was not detected by Combofix, Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware and many others. The only anti-malware program detected the bootkit was Hitman Pro 3.5.
If you are dealing with a persistent malware infection that redirects search results, try using numbers of anti-malware softwares. In addition to that, search for “Google redirect virus” using an uninfected computer. The malware redirects search result system-wide. On the infected system, search results were redirected on Internet Explorer, Safari, Chrome and Firefox. The malware will redirect search results on any browsers installed on the system.
It is almost 5 o’clock in the morning. I have not had a minute of sleep. I’ll clean up this post later.

“Requirements: Mac OS X 10.4.7 or higher because 10.3 makes the iceweasel cower in fear.”
That always makes me chuckle.
Microsoft has released Internet Explorer 9 through Technet and MSDN.
Windows XP and below are not supported.
I’ve got a call from an acquaintance on Friday regarding an old computer I’ve worked previously worked on. It is the Gateway GT5404 computer I worked on in 2007. The very same computer that came with Windows Vista pre-installed and later had Windows XP installed by yours truly. It is the very same computer I wrote about on the early incarnation of this blog.
After a good 3 years and 11 months, Windows XP no longer boots. I have yet inspected the computer so I would not know what really went wrong. My plan is to install a new hard drive and install Windws XP on this computer again.
As usual I’ll be documenting the installation process.
Till next time.
