Help!!!!! Malewarebytes says I have 150 infected files and their registry keys!?

3d scanner gpl image

Chantz

I kept getting a red pop up from avast saying the it blocked a Malicious URl, i get it everytime I open Google Chrome, open a new tab, or navigate to a new part of a website, it started happenening about an hour ago, so far I've system restored my computer, run an avast scan, nothing.

So I tried Malewarebytes and it found 150 infected files, half files i don't have like firefox, and the other half registry keys. I have had trojan viruses in the past that i've fixed by a system restore. I have windows 7, and i don't want to screw up my computer by deleting registry files so help please.
Here is the popup I keep getting from avast, and it is the same one every time, it's never different
Please tell me what to do, to delete, to completely restore my computer, or what.

Answer
It has been my experience, of which there is a lot, that it is safe to delete everything MBAM finds. MBAM has a very low false positive rate. You can quarantine the items, and if you have problems after quarantining, then look into which key may be the good one, and restore it. In all my experience with MBAM, I have deleted everything it has found, and never had a problem.
I get rid of malware on a lot of people's machines.

I would also run scans with TDSSKiller, and GMER. They are anti-rootkit programs that you don't have to install, just download them to the desktop, and double click the icon(s) to open the scanners. Rootkits can go undetected by AV programs, and programs like MBAM.

how can 3D model is able to replica? using machine?

3d scanner phone image

kryslian88

i was wondering if any of vinyl statues that are replica by using machine technology if is that so then what kind of machine? and what are the price?
use scanning or digital cameras all of the perspectives of the 3D models to make replicas too?

Answer
there are scanners that read a 3 d figure (this is often how small scale figures are reproduced much much larger) Molds are then made (for multiples like the junk from China we buy at Walmart) from metal, and there are machines that squirt resin or liquid plastic into the molds. They then run down a conveyer and are dumped out into big boxes, packed up and shipped out around the world. These machines are very costly, but produce the product at a penny or less each, and then we buy this crap for $10-$150, so if they sell oh, say 10,000 of them they have paid for their machine...

if you want to reproduce your own art work, go to a model maker (in phone book) and ask how much it would be to make molds, and then you can go to a plastics fabricator who does this for other people. Unless you have plenty of capital to start up your own factory.

If you want to just reproduce 100 or so, then yo can learn to make your own molds from a book and make them yourself with liquid resin.

I want to get more into digital art, need tips?

Okay so I've decided that I want to get more serious about digital art than the cool yet limited app I have on my Nintendo 3DS... where's the best place to start?

Does everyone use photoshop, or are there special programs made just for artwork? I'm assuming there are, and if so which one would you recommend? I'm willing to purchase it if it's really good.

What would be the best drawing tablet to purchase?

Any other useful tips for someone wanting to start getting more into digital art?

Thanks in advance :)
By digital art, since I know that covers a ride range of things, I do not mean editing others photos or my own. I want to create things from scratch. I have a full sketchbook of things like portraits and landscapes, so I would like to continue that only... digitally. :)

Answer
Here are some things that might help you get started with illustration and design:

Free:
- Gimp (download, similar to Photoshop)
- Inkscape (download, similar to Illustrator)
- Lunapic (online, similar to Photoshop)
- Pixlr (online, similar to Photoshop)
- Blender (download, similar to Maya, a 3d design program)
- Autodesk Sketchbook Express (download, similar to Corel painter)
------> Autodesk software is available for free for students at:
------> http://students.autodesk.com/?nd=download_center

Paid:
- Photoshop (Photoshop elements is a cheaper alternative, it comes free with some tablets)
- Illustrator
- Corel Painter (you can get a free version of painter with certain tablets)
- Sketchbook Pro 6 (similar to Corel Painter)


Best drawing tablet: wacom intuos4 small (for beginners, try ebay for the cheapest). I've used wacom bamboo fun before as a starter tablet I was 100% disappointed and would not suggest if even as a starter tablet. There is a newer version of the intros, intuos5 but the new additions are really not worth the upgrade cost. There is a big difference between the 3 and 4 though so I'd go with the 4. The 3 is heavier, old, and clunky.

I use a tablet for everything and I noticed if you use it for long periods of time you might have wrist pain from your lower hand hitting a desk as you use it. What I use to save my hand is a thin glove without fingers. They are really cheap and normally around $2-3 for a pair. Sometimes I put tissues on the part of the glove that hits a desk for extra padding so I can use a tablet for many hours without having a bruised hand.

It sounds like you are interested in digital illustration. You might like Photoshop or Corel painter best. Illustrator is more technical and can be hard to be more free with. It is a great program but not the best for detailed illustration like landscapes. It is better for making things like logos, clip art. Both photoshop and Corel are pretty expensive for full versions but there is a big difference between the cheaper versions and the full versions.

Of all of the programs listed, Photoshop is probably your best bet, the full version, not elements. I wouldn't waste money on elements, I'd use it if you have a free copy from buying a tablet but it isn't worth buying in my opinion. Try out some of the free programs above if you can't get the paid version of photoshop. The downloadable ones are best for long projects because you could lose your work if you work online. I'd suggest Gimp and Adobe Sketchbook Express to start with. If you cannot get a student license for a free version of sketchbook, amazon sells it as Sketchbook Pro 6 for around $20-40 depending on who you buy it from. It is a larger version of the program with more options that is relatively cheap. A great option to Corel Painter if you don't want quite so many options (it sells for about $70 on amazon).

Other things that might help:
- a scanner
- a camera/phone for pictures of 2d art
- tripod for taking good pictures with camera
- Staedtler pigment liner markers (these are very expensive, roughly $10-15 for 4 but they are very good quality and should last awhile, great for inking drawings for good scans digitally)
- Prismacolor Turquoise soft pencils (for 2d work to scan, best pencils I've used so far, I've tried a lot of brands)
- Prismacolor Turqoise medium pencils
- Staedtler White eraser (I use these all of the time, and they are great! Best eraser I've used so far.)
- Staedtler white eraser pencil toppers (these are hard to find but also great)
- Zebra drift 0.5mm lead mechanical pencils (larger mechanical pencil)
- Pentel 0.7 mm lead mechanical pencil (regular mechanical pencil, my favorite kind)

Generally for 2d supplies, Staedtler, Prismacolor, Pentel, and Zebra are really good. My mechanical pencils are all japanese, they seem to be the best quality. I actually got them from a college book store that sell supplies for 5 for $1. Generally they are about $2-4 a piece though. Staedtler's stuff if German and known for high quality drafting supplies. Prismacolor is made in Mexico (at least the Turquoise pencils, they are very expensive but I've used the cheaper ones and they just aren't the same. Drawing smudge a lot with the cheap ones and aren't as dark. The cheap brands look 'fuzzy' a lot. The best place for most of these is either local 3rd party supply stores, not chains, or ebay. Amazon is pretty high with shipping.

Have fun! :D

Does the CT Scan need a darkroom and cassette to produce radiographs?

3d x ray scanning image

"TORPEdo"

Some of us know that the X-ray machine needs a darkroom for the processing of the radiographs. I'm just wondering if the CT scan still needs a darkroom to produce diagnostic images and a cassette that will contain the film.

Answer
Nope!

The CT scanner contains an x-ray tube, the same as a regular x-ray room, but has detectors on the other side, rather than a film cassette. The tube and detectors spin around you (this part is called the gantry) acquiring information continuously (in a spiral) as you move through it on the table.

All the information from the detectors is gathered by the Image Capture System (called raw data) which is then reconstructed, first into a usable image, and then into any way the operator chooses - in different planes, in different slice thicknesses, in different brightness/contrasts ('windows') concentrating on different body parts (ie, bone or soft tissue or lung), or in cool 3D pictures.

These images are then sent electronically to a workstation for the radiologist to report from, and sometimes to the Internet, over a secure connection, for the referring doctor to view.

(PS Even most general x-ray rooms these days don't use film - they use an electronic plate that captures the charge of the x-ray, which is then put through a reader to load onto the computer. The plate is then (electronically) wiped clean and then reused. Some places even have direct-capture systems where the plate is eliminated all together!)

can you make an x ray see through your skull?

Chris

i need an image of the surface of my brain. an mri and a ct scan miss whats under the surface of your brain. the skull and brain are to close together and you cant see it. i think theres something maybe metal under my skull. can an x ray make your skull transparent? i need something like a normal x ray but see through. do you know how?

Answer
X ray have a penetrative power, with the quantity of the rays stopped being a function of the density of whatever it is going through, but it cannot change the property of matter.

Tomography allows a better view that allows a reconstruction of a 3D image by doing several X ray along different directions. Magnetic resonance imaging relies on the different way hydrogen in molecules will align with a powerful magnet, which allows it to image tissue that contain water.

The only imaging technique you have not listed is the positron emission tomography (PET) which require short lived radio active isotopes to be injected.

If those techniques do not work, then your request would need something that is not yet available.

Why canât biometric identification be used to make purchases online?

Emma

Biometric identification is basically face recognition, eye scanner or fingerprints which could be used instead of passwords and user names etc
I don't know if the answer is that you can't buy the technology yet to actually do that from home or because your fingerprint etc hasn't been linked up to your bank details or whether it's something blatantly obvious that i have missed.
Thank you for your help

Answer
I have recently gone across this great time and attendance device called SmartXS which scans on multiple levels and is really fast. They provide software support through which it can be customized and used for various applications. Even several banks have been using fingerprint scanners for the identification instead of writing PIN codes in their ATM machines. Face recognition will definitely take it to another level as this device scans dual retina and 3d face in less than a second. The company is Solotech Corp and its design is good too. Hope it helps.

how do i make a legitimate manga or comic?

3d scanner cost image

Captain Fu

i understand there is software or something, but overall, i have no idea how to make manga. i am buying an how to draw manga and how to draw comic book soon, but im just curious,scan my images online, or use some high end 3d model software? please also list the cost of such software and or scanner if there is such things

Answer
Look up some guides on how to create a webcomic. They have assorted tips ranging from drawing to technologies and presentation.

The most basic challenges are to develop drawing skills and have many ideas for the comic. If you're a great artist but only one short story then you might have nowhere to take your characters. If you have many stories but can't present them then you have to seek a market for low-quality work.

For example, "Girl Genius" has good visual presentation and many stories within its great story arc. On the other hand, "Hidamari Sketch" is visually simple but covers many simple everyday stories, much as "Peanuts" did.

Hello,

I want to take a series of slices of tissue made at several micrometer thickness and render them into a 3D image, so as to calculate a lesion volume....any suggestions?

I'm interested in software available to do this, and ideally, envisioning: imaging all of the slices with a camera interface then "layering" them on top of one another to create a 3D image and analyze the volume of a lesion within the tissue.

Thank you.

What can I use to cast a mold from stone without hurting the stone?

disciple

I'm new to this, but does anyone know what medium I would use to make a mold from a stone. In other words, There is an old building with a beautiful design sculpted in to it. I want to copy this design. I know there is a material out there that I can press against the original design and make a mold of it and then cast the design in plaster. I just don't know what material I would use to do this without hurting the stone.... Help!!!

Answer
I think the sculpey or any clay will work. If you use normal clay, any residue left will dissolve in the next rain, just don't use brown clay on light stone... if you use water based clay you would have to cast your plaster into the mold while the clay is still wet.
As the clay won't be very stable just on its own, you should consider making a mother mold on top of that. That is a hard shell, which just gives support to the soft part of your mold so it doesn't deform. It depends on the size of what you want to copy if you need it. You could make the mothermold from plaster bandages, but don't put plaster directly on the stone.
Before you start, consider carefully the shape of what you want to copy and where undercuts are and where you have to put in parting lines. What technique you use for mold making really depends on the exact shape of what you want to copy. If the structure is something complicated, you may want to practice how to make molds from more simple structures first so you are aware what causes problems and get some experience in how to solve them.

Another completely contact free method is if you happen to be at a university where they have a 3D laser scanning camera you can borrow, you could use the 3D laser scanner then make a model of your structure in the computer from the scans. That you could print out using a 3D printer. that way you can scale the model to any size (though anything large will be expensive to print)

what are some reverse engineering techniques?

3d scanner geometry image

Kevin7

Answer
Reverse engineering of machines
As computer-aided design (CAD) has become more popular, reverse engineering has become a viable method to create a 3D virtual model of an existing physical part for use in 3D CAD, CAM, CAE or other software. The reverse-engineering process involves measuring an object and then reconstructing it as a 3D model. The physical object can be measured using 3D scanning technologies like CMMs, laser scanners, structured light digitizers or computed tomography. The measured data alone, usually represented as a point cloud, lacks topological information and is therefore often processed and modeled into a more usable format such as a triangular-faced mesh, a set of NURBS surfaces or a CAD model.
Reverse engineering is also used by businesses to bring existing physical geometry into digital product development environments, to make a digital 3D record of their own products or to assess competitors' products. It is used to analyse, for instance, how a product works, what it does, and what components it consists of, estimate costs, and identify potential patent infringement, etc. Value engineering is a related activity also used by businesses. It involves de-constructing and analysing products, but the objective is to find opportunities for cost cutting.

Reverse engineering of software
The three main groups of software reverse engineering are
1. Analysis through observation of information exchange, most prevalent in protocol reverse engineering, which involves using bus analyzers and packet sniffers, for example, for accessing a computer bus or computer network connection and revealing the traffic data thereon. Bus or network behaviour can then be analyzed to produce a stand-alone implementation that mimics that behaviour. This is especially useful for reverse engineering device drivers. Sometimes, reverse engineering on embedded systems is greatly assisted by tools deliberately introduced by the manufacturer, such as JTAG ports or other debugging means. In Microsoft Windows, low-level debuggers such as SoftICE are popular.
2. Disassembly using a disassembler, meaning the raw machine language of the program is read and understood in its own terms, only with the aid of machine-language mnemonics. This works on any computer program but can take quite some time, especially for someone not used to machine code. The Interactive Disassembler is a particularly popular tool.
3. Decompilation using a decompiler, a process that tries, with varying results, to recreate the source code in some high-level language for a program only available in machine code or bytecode.

Reverse engineering of integrated circuits/smart cards
Reverse engineering is an invasive and destructive form of analyzing a smart card. The attacker grinds away layer by layer of the smart card and takes pictures with an electron microscope. With this technique, it is possible to reveal the complete hardware and software part of the smart card. The major problem for the attacker is to bring everything into the right order to find out how everything works. Engineers try to hide keys and operations by mixing up memory positions, for example, busscrambling. In some cases, it is even possible to attach a probe to measure voltages while the smart card is still operational. Engineers employ sensors to detect and prevent this attack. This attack is not very common because it requires a large investment in effort and special equipment that is generally only available to large chip manufacturers. Furthermore, the payoff from this attack is low since other security techniques are often employed such as shadow accounts.

what is meant by citi scan?

harshi d

Answer
FIRST OF ALL IT IS CT SCAN AND NOT CITI SCAN.

AND NOW FOR YOUR ANSWER

Computed tomography (CT), originally known as computed axial tomography (CAT or CT scan) and body section roentgenography, is a medical imaging method employing tomography where digital geometry processing is used to generate a three-dimensional image of the internals of an object from a large series of two-dimensional X-ray images taken around a single axis of rotation. The word "tomography" is derived from the Greek tomos (slice) and graphein (to write). CT produces a volume of data which can be manipulated, through a process known as windowing, in order to demonstrate various structures based on their ability to block the X-ray beam. Although historically (see below) the images generated were in the axial or transverse plane (orthogonal to the long axis of the body), modern scanners allow this volume of data to be reformatted in various planes or even as volumetric (3D) representations of structures.

Although most common in healthcare, CT is also used in other fields, for example nondestructive materials testing.

Im a highschooler who wants to persure a career in 2D animation. I need advice from a 2D Animator!?

3d scanner new york image

Q. First, Id like to inform you a little about myself.

I've been drawing for a while now and I think I've developed some pretty good drawing skills considering Im only 16. My line of work is just sketches and more sketches of people and anatomical figures. I get creative with my drawings and a lot of my 'finished work' goes along the lines of illustration that I do on the computer with my tablet.

Im awful at traditional painting, but Im quite confident in my drawing skills when it comes to drawing from life. Especially the human figure! But I work with the human figure blind more often than I do from life. I look to Jack Hamm's 'Drawing The Head and Figure' as well as Andy Smith's "Drawing Dynamic Comics."(Which teaches about drawing superhero comic figures) I try to mesh the two so that I can one day animate my own figures similar to those of the more realistic comicbooks you see on the shelves. I've also grown up looking at movies in the analytical aspect, scrutinizing pieces of the film to appreciate scenes and the storyboard that go into the film. My influences to persue in animation were DEFINATELY Batman the Animated Series and cartoon network itself! That as well as a few anime with either a very moving narrative or astounding animation qaulity. (Cowboy Bebop, Wolf's Rain, Ghost In The Shell..) And even a few disney favorites... Oliver in Company, Aristo Cats, Balto, Lion King.

Here are examples of a few edited works from my sketchbook.

http://i40.tinypic.com/5b2tlv.jpg (this one is a quick, maybe 15 to 20 minute drawing of my little brother laying down on the couch)

My drawings niches right now dont fit what I'd like to be able to do in the future, (Im having difficulties in drawing guys! Especially their muscles!) but Im working hard to up my skills before its time to send applications into college. (Im in the 11th grade) Im very informed on portfolio requirements and what schools would like to see because Im in my highschool's 'Senior Portfolio Class' which is a class to prepare Senior's portfolios for college. Im an advanced art student, as well as 2 other Juniors, and we're in it togethor. My grades, Ill have you know, are awful. I go to summer school once every year because I always end up failing one of my classes and I have to make up the credit so I can graduate. And the class that did that to me last year was french, which I couldnt take over the summer because they dont offer it at my highschool. So Im screwed when it comes to impressing a college with my '3 years of a language' thing. Im REALLY depending on art school at this point! I know I should not have done that because it shows a horrible work ethic, but drawing is the only thing I like to do! (besides play videogames, haha)

I want to become an animator! (I've got a lightbox, a scanner and my trusty tablet) And I aspire to continue a career into 2D! I've looked into A LOT of schools and I cant find a school with a truly impressive curriculum in 2D animation. (I know its actually just animation where they teach you both 3D and 2D, but I couldnt find a good batch of classes for 2D in each of the programs of study for the colleges I was looking into.) BUT...

I did find SCAD. Savannah College of Art and Design. (http://www.scad.edu) And their student work is very nice, I didnt see much 2D, but when I looked at their classes, it was a pretty nice list for 2D! I understand now that SCAD is supposedly a very impressive school, and I'd really like to get in!

But my questions are... Do I have any other options? Is my work or my plans right now only going to hurt me? I dont know about what its like getting a job as a 2D animator or what an average day is for somebody working as one. Or even what the chances are for me to work for a company that'll give me decent pay to live on and pay future debt! I need some intel on somebody who works as a 2D animator. Im ready for a long road ahead of me until I really have the skills and experience needed to be a truly magnificent animator, but I want to make sure that when I train for it in college that I'll find work to get myself out there. I understand I wont be a big time animator or something straight out of college, but I want to know places or companies to work that I can do what I love and get more experience. Whats a good company or place to start out with? I dont even know if I have the right mindset right now! I feel blind! I know nothing about the animation career other than little things on how to actually animate.

Last but not least, whats your story on how you became a 2D animator?

If you read this, thankyou so so much. Im positive that I and many other students out there have these same questions too. I read online that pay for 2D animation is looked at as a bad living, but it honestly de
Im sorry this is so long. If you know a different place where I can contact 2D animators, drop me a line!

Answer
Hey, first off your work is great. The last two are kind of boring, but the first couple ones are really impressive. SCAD is a great school, if I were you I would go there. I went to school where they had an animation program where you learned both 2d and 3d. I do know that if you can find a 2d animation job the pay won't be that great. New York is a good place to be for 2d animators, I recently worked with a girl on a show called Fat Guy Stuck in Internet who went on to animate for Super Jail, a 2d show on Adult Swim. All in All you really need to go to art school, it builds a lot of drawing skill in many different ways. Good Luck.
