avast! Evangelist Win32:Delf-MZG false positive issue statement
« on: Today at 06:52:48 AM » ——————————————————————————– Hello, last night (02 Dec), avast had a bad false positive issue. At around 12:15am GMT we released VPS update 091203-0 which started flagging hundreds of innocent files as a “Win32:Delf-MZG” Trojan (or, in less common cases, as “Win32:Zbot-MKK”). Among the files affected were high-profile programs produced by Adobe, Realtek sound card drivers, various media players etc. We are still investigating the issue, trying to find out what exactly happened and how to make absolutely sure it will not happen again. At 5:50am GMT, another VPS update (091203-1) was released, fixing the issue (for both “Win32:Delf-MZG” and “Win32:Zbot-MKK”).
Those who have not used their computers between 12:15am and 5:50am will most likely not be affected. If you’re still using the bad VPS (091203-0) we recommend to invoke a VPS update immediately. Our technical support team is currently preparing extensive HOWTOs about how to fix the situation for those who were hit by the problem. We will be updating you shortly. We deeply apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. Thanks,
Vlk

This brings the sibling count in our house to 4, of which during delivery I was made quite aware there would be no more…

Sample website front page for Carelli, Gold Coast, Australia
by admin on Oct.29, 2009, under General
Here is the sample page we whipped up this morning, as a demo for the Carelli Hair Care website. While Ocular Group is not yet confirmed the job, we decided to show what can be done in a few short hours once we set our minds to a task.
Carelli Hair Care introduced to Ocular Group, Gold Coast
by admin on Oct.28, 2009, under General
Today we were fortunate enough to meet with promotions manager for Carelli Hair Care. Michelle gave us an insight into the history behind Judy and the challenges behind forming a specialist, high quality commercial grade hair products, with a magical 3 step process.
Carelli Hair Care is a revolutionized new approach to hair care with unorthodoxed application. Starting with a Step 1, Recovery Oil through a secret blend shampoo and finishing with a ‘use anytime; even on dry hair’ conditioner that you dont even have to wash out.
The Carelli range was designed by a local Gold Coast resident Judy Gravvanis. Judy has been spoiling clients from her own local Robina salon with access to the product while she refined packaging and marketing styles.
[excerpt from http://www.hotfrog.com.au/Companies/carelli-hair-care]
CARELLI is a botanical organic based hair car range . CARELLI products are designed to repair & restore moisture, reconstruct hair loss and damage from cheomtherapy, hair colouring or chemicals and naturally dry and frizzy conditions. We have incredible results and love a challange. Designed by a hair specialist creating the almost perfect recovery range for hair.
Now is the beginning of the Carelli supply to the open market starting right in our Gold Coast backyard and if Ocular Group is fortunate enough to be invited to work with Judy and Michelle, you will be graced with more news and information in the weeks to come.

Brand new computer unit for $399! YES, this is for REAL!
by admin on Oct.21, 2009, under General
Ok, so if your on this page you have either:
1. Driven past our office on Bundall Road and seen the signs! *** while you were checking out the sexy ‘afternoon’ photoshoot on the front lawn!
2. Caught the twitter post about the special deals we are running and browsed here! ***which means you haven’t been past Bundall and seen the sexy frontlawn photoshoots going on!
OR
3. You are already on our email list and been sent a private invitation about the special promotion packages we are planning over the coming weeks.
***
We’ve have caught quite a few passing motorists checking our the sexy models working the photoshoots here on our front lawn just near the corner of Bundall Road and Ashmore Road.
Most afternoons, right around the time you would be on your way home from work, you can find some scantly dressed, smooth skin, models kicking about on the front lawn of the Ocular Group office location performing for an actual on-location photoshoot.
The aim is to promote services Ocular Group provide in the areas of computers (new systems and repairs), video editing and of course photography!
Enough of the why, how about the what…
The $399 deal is an entry-level computer system, built with quality brand parts to make it valuable and reliable. (ie: Seagate hard drive, gigabyte mainboard etc)
The package is not the cheapest around (although I’d be pretty sceptical of anything much lower in price), we are simply offering exceptional value using quality parts.
We are doing these CRAZY prices to promote our computer section and build up some more business coming into the end of the year!
Intel Celeron Dual Core E3200 2.4GHZ 800FSB LGA775, Gigabyte GA-G41M-ES2H Mainboard, 1Gb DDR2 Memory, Seagate Serial ATA NCQ 250GB 7200RPM 8mb Cache, ATX midi tower case & power supply, DVD Writer, Keyboard & Mouse.
Yes it is only 1Gb Ram and no monitor included, but we will do deals on extras you may need to go with it. (like more ram…)
$199 – 19” LCD Widescreen Display Monitor
Windows 7 Home $179* Windows pricing is approximate only
ALL our systems we build are to strict military and commercial grade standards with components specifically selected to ensure performance, quality and maximum reliability.
We engineer technology systems ranging from commercial video editing platforms, critical security monitoring systems and even the standard home PC all of which are built to ensure the highest quality and longevity as part of our plan for Quality Assurance certification.
We are specialists at what we do, and as a result are very good at it!
CALL (07) 5570 2000 or CLICK TO CONTACT US and send through your details and we’ll be in touch.

The new look website for Safeway Self Storage is coming along and the layout and style give the exceptional storage company a new look and feel for their online presence.
