IE6 & 7 Flicker or Flashing Problem

paimpozhil — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 13:13:40 +0000

You may have a site that has background other than White.

And sometimes when using css/javascript menus,etc when the people navigate to other pages , you will see a Big Flash entering the eyes

Not to mention, average users will get Annoyed by this and leave the site unless you provide something that makes them cope that behavior of the browser

You may not notice this in famous Firefox browser but IE is prone to this kind of behavior

To fix the problem easily we can ask all users to switch to firefox but this is not always the case so

Here is the fix for Internet Explorer

we have tried some advice from fellow webmasters that you can setup cache on IIS webserver,etc.. most people dont have previlage to do that or their hosting admins may not be interested in doing that.

So without any ones help you can fix this yourself by using an Iframe

Make a new file like iframe.html or index.html whatsoever

Make the background to the color of your site background

then make a iframe with this code

change the secureslash.com with your site url.

And dont forgot that, You need to use some javascript to change the browser address bar url according to the current source of iframe. Google or Live it for doing this.

Thats it , Enjoy Cheers

Javascript Trojan Virus Everywhere and How to fix it

paimpozhil — Sat, 01 Mar 2008 12:54:28 +0000

Its getting hit by Trojan virus:

Read the News about Thousands of infected websites.

A lot of sites are now being attacked with JavaScript Trojans

the server is not attacked by virus , this happens to both Linux and windows server sites.

so it is doesnt look like a server based attack

How this happens?

when the computer from where you upload data thru FTP/fp is infected , it injects some JavaScript to all html files.

so how you can prevent this happening is keep your pc up2date by having recent antivirus,antispyware and then change your ftp logins.

If there is a Repeating same pattern of JavaScript on 100s of your files you have a shell script for Linux server users that can remove these injected javascript .

so you can request your host or you yourself can run this on your shell

find ./ -type f -exec sed -i ‘/unescape/d’ {} \;

this command will remove all the lines with pattern ‘unescape’

some virus has lines of function okban, in that case you can try pattern ‘okban’

it depends on your need.

you can do the same with a software called GrepWin for replacing/searching PERL Regular Expression patterns on your files

http://tools.tortoisesvn.net/grepWin

use it to search for patterns and replace with null or use the options to delete those lines

this can be either used on a windows server or client side (but then you have to upload all modified files again )

The Conscience of a Hacker

Another one got caught today, it’s all over the papers. “Teenager arrested in computer crime scandal”, “Hacker arrested after bank tampering”…

Damn Kids. They’re all alike.

But did you, in your three piece psychology and 1970′s technobrain ever take a look behind the eyes of a hacker? Did you ever wonder what made him tick, what forces shaped him, what may have molded him?

I am a hacker, enter my world…

Mine is a world that begins with school. I’ve listened to the teacher explain for the fifteenth time how to reduce a fraction. I understand it. “No, Miss Shaw, I didn’t show my work. I did it in my head…”

Damn kid. Probably copied it. They’re all alike.

I made a discovery today. I found a computer. Wait a second, this is cool. It does what I want it to do. If it makes a mistake, it’s because I screwed up. Not because it doesn’t like me…or feels threatened by me…or thinks I’m a smart ass…or doesn’t like teaching and shouldn’t be here…

Damn kid. All he does is play games. They’re all alike.

And then it happened… A door opened to a world… Rushing through the phone line like heroin through an addict’s veins, an electronic pulse is sent out, a refuge from the day to day incompetencies is sought… A board is found.

“This is it… This is where I belong…”

I know everyone here… Even if I’ve never met them, never talked to them, may never hear from them again… I know you all…

Damn kid. Tying up the phone line again. They’re all alike…

You bet your ass we’re all alike… We’ve been spoon fed baby food at school when we hungered for steak… The bits of meat that you did let slip through were pre chewed and tasteless. We’ve been dominated by sadists, or ignored by the apathetic. The few that had something to teach found us willing pupils, but those few are like drops of water in the desert.

This is our world now… The world of the electron and the switch, the beauty of the baud. We make use of a service already existing without paying for what could be dirt cheap if it wasn’t run by profiteering gluttons, and you call us criminals. We explore… And you call us criminals. We exist without skin color, without nationality, without religious bias… And you call us criminals. You build atomic bombs, you wage wars, you murder, you cheat, and lie to us and try to make us believe it’s for our own good, yet we’re the criminals.

Yes, I am a criminal. My crime is that of curiosity. My crime is that of judging people by what they say and think, not what they look like. My crime is that of outsmarting you, something that you will never forgive me for.

I am a hacker, and this is my manifesto. You may stop this individual, but you can’t stop us all… After all, We’re all alike.
