Free 2GB USB Flash Drive at DotAsia Domain Registration-FreeB.Asia

DotAsia Sets Another Industry First with FreeB.Asia:
Free USB Gadget for Every “.Asia” Domain Registered

DotAsia announces the launch of FreeB.Asia program (http://www.freeb.asia). Starting this month, DotAsia is giving away one free 2GB mini USB stick for every new “.Asia” domain registered for 2 or more years with participating partners (http://www.freeb.asia/redemption/page?p=participate).

This is the first time a domain registry is giving out nifty tech gadgets for every domain registered. With Asia being the undisputed region of gadgets, it is fitting that “.Asia” is the first to offer such an unprecedented premium for the global domain community.

“It ties in well with the identity of the ‘.Asia’ domain for a region known for its tech miniaturization savvy,” says Edmon Chung, CEO of DotAsia. “Besides being first of its kind, the offer also aligns with DotAsia’s support for SMEs around the world to do business in Asia.”

Alongside this amazing offer, DotAsia continues to build value for the “.Asia” namespace through
community and market initiatives. KeepClicking.Asia (http://www.keepclicking.asia) is a social platform inviting domain investors and SMEs to a dialogue about the growing Asian Internet marketplace; ListenUp.Asia (http://www.listenup.asia) is a podcast series about business, entertainment and the Internet market in Asia; Asia Pacific Entrepreneurship Award (APEA –
http://www.apea.asia) recognises leaders for outstanding entrepreneurship and has an objective to stimulate the growth of Asian brands and enterprises.

“SMEs represent 95% of the economy, employing 65% of the workforce in Asia. With 650 Million online customers in Asia, the Asian Internet marketplace represents significant potential market for SMEs worldwide. DotAsia is working hard to provide support for businesses around the world to serve the Asia community through establishing ‘.Asia’ as the domain of choice for ecommerce in Asia,” adds Chung.

Asian businesses are starting to adopt “.Asia” as the domain of choice for their online presence.
Restaurants and bars (http://www.sakura-cafe.asia, http://www.somo.asia), real estate developments (http://www.kirikhan.asia, http://www.oystercove.asia), tech companies (http://www.riverwalk.asia, http://www.ripple.asia), artists (http://www.absorb.asia, http://www.solfa.asia),magazines(http://www.10magazine.asia, http://www.walkyourtalk.asia) and others (http://www.leluxe.asia, http://www.abbf.asia) are just some of the examples found at KeepClicking.Asia. A number of professionals as well as organisations have exclusively selected “.Asia” even when the corresponding “.com” domain is still available (e.g. http://www.artquve.asia, http://www.chris316.asia, etc.).

The FreeB.Asia (http://www.freeb.asia) program aims to attract SMEs and individuals around the world to adopt a “.Asia” domain when expanding their business to Asia.

How to remove "This site may harm your Computer"

Today morning I was a little bit scared when I saw the traffic stats of one of my affiliated blogs.There was no traffic when I saw in the morning.The reason is that the blog has been flagged as "This site may harm your Computer". in the Google search results.

What is wrong with that blog I really don't know.I made a detailed study of the issue and finally got the issue resolved within 6 hours.It was really a threatening scene for me as I saw this message in the Google Search.Then I went to Safebrowsing which will check about the suspicious activities of a site.There "This site is not currently listed as suspicious." is the message for my blog.

So finally I went into Google Webmaster Tools Dashboard and saw the message as shown in the image.When I clicked the "Details" there expanded explanation regarding the issue can be seen.Previously it had shown one URL indicating that there is malware in one url.But how can this happen as the blog is hosted in Blogger.com. So i wanted to contact them. As you can see that there will be a "Request Review" Link.There I gave detailed report regarding the same and finally got out from the problem to some extent.

"Status of the latest badware review for this site: A review for this site has finished. The site was found clean. The badware warnings from web search are being removed. Please note that it can take some time for this change to propagate. Google users will see a warning page when they attempt to visit pages within this site. You can visit the Google Safe Browsing diagnostic page for your site for detailed information about the problems we found.

Please review StopBadware.org's Security Tips for Websitesand make any necessary changes to your site. When you have cleaned your site, you can request a review, and we'll evaluate your site. Request a review"

I have to see how much time will it take for removing this message in the Webmaster Dashboard.

Affected operating systems: Windows

Info :

VBS/Autorun-QO displays the text "THIS IS AN ANTI-VIRUS AND WILL HELP YOUR SYSTEM TO WORK PROPERLY" and "RAHUL THE H@CkEr".

VBS/Autorun-QO copies itself to accessible drives and the Windows system folder as LOVERAHULSAS.vbs.

VBS/Autorun-QO spreads together with a file autorun.inf. The autorun.inf file is also detected as VBS/Autorun-QO.

What made me to start blogging

Every new blogger will say the same thing  "I got inspired by this blogger"......"I want to earn money for my daily needs"....some thing like this.

Coming to me I was a newbie in the past 6  years to Internet world.I dont know what are the things going around me.

Later when i started doing my Engineering,that was the time things actually tought me.

It is my passion to know about new technology and what is going on in the world.

Neverthless there should be a "Guru" for blogger who certainly would have inspired to start blogging.For me it is none other than "Amit Agarwal" of Digital Inspiration.

I can't find words to praise this professional and technical blogger who is really helping co-bloggers through a  lot of his effort.

Some times entire Google account will be disabled.Else you will be restricted to use only some of the Google Services.In most of the cases the users will be loosing their Adsense or Orkut servies because of spamming/violation of TOS.

There are a lot of other alternatives.

One thing is to honestly and confidently Contact Google team requesting for Re-activation of your account.You know some times some of the Google Accounts by mistake will be kept under scanner.So just try that.
