Top 3 Android Antivirus


Increasingly we are using our smartphones and tablets to transport and store all types of personal information and not always understand the potential threats.
However, there are some good antivirus.
Kaspersky Mobile Security:

Kaspersky has been one of the top companies in the Windows security in the world. this company wants also to position itself as one of the best on the security of Android OS.

The Lite version provides antivirus, anti-theft protection and a filter-based calls and SMS. It is a reasonable set of features, but as free antivirus is not very good.
However, the paid version adds scans for applications and also includes the protection of privacy. But the most attractive fact is the price - it costs only $ 9.99 in the Android Market!


Lookout Security and Antivirus:

This company has always been dedicated to the safety of smartphones. The free version is equipped with anti-virus detector, phone features and a backup utility and is among the most effective . As is free, it is a good choice. The paid version costs 30$ for year.


F-Secure Mobile Security

This application is only available on F-Secure site and beside there is no free version.
One of the most important feature is the parental-control, you can block sites or use a filtering content that will block sites which often parents do not approve. There is also a blacklist of phone numbers and even applications that can be configured as the user want to.
The big disadvantage is its price 30€/40$.

Windows 8 will be launched in October 2012

It's confirmed the launch of that is expected to be the best operating system ever produced by Microsoft. Windows 8 will be on the market in October.

The final version of  this windows will be lanched to desktop, lattops and tablets. This launch coincides with Christmas shopping season so manufacturers can create a timeline to make adaptations and adjustments

I like the new interface "Metro" but I have tested this windows on a virtual machine and is not very appropriated for a desktop. I hope that will be a option to select Metro or something similar to the actual desktop, because this windows is very light, and faster,  the metro interface it's more appropriated to tablets. On my pc i'll keep with windows 7 unless that will be the option refered before. Or maybe buy a tablet for Christmas.

Minecraft - My favourite game

To iniciate my blog I will bring for my first review the game "Minecraft"

Minecraft is a rpg about placing cubes, focused on building and creativity. You have two game modes, survival and creative. As the name says, on the first one you need to survive, you have to search for resources, as food, wood and other blocks, on the middle of the desert, florest, swamp, caves, etc. On the creative mode you have unlimited resources, and also the ability to fly.

Not everything its easy, on survival not only you need to maintain your health and hunger, but also you need to survive against monsters, like, zombies, skeletons, creepers, and more...

But if you think that be alone in a unlimited world its sad you have the option to play it online with your friends and make an awesome explorer adventure, and survive together.

The game was designed by Marcus (Notch) Person, and developed by mojang. To play the you only need to create an account and download the minecraft.exe. You can also buy the game to have some extra options, like play on premium servers or change your skin.

Now some ingame pictures:

Don't judge the game by its graphics.
