3d scanner mac os x image
Catiekat
I love to draw many things, animals, cartoons, but right now mainly manga style but what I want to know is what program I should get for coloring on the computer/editing my artwork. I'm more of a traditional artist but for my birthday I want a scanner and I'd like to edit my drawings a little. Make it stand out more, outline it, and maybe even color it. What has worked for you artists out there? Please give me reasons why this is a good program as well.
Here are some programs I've thought of so far:
-Photoshop
-Manga Studio
-Illustrator
-Paint Tool Sai
I'm NOT looking for the cheapest or most expensive. Just one that helps edit and outlines artwork really well. Coloring program with all the other stuff would be a bonus.
Thanks again ^_^
Also I don't mind paying for a program if that's what it takes to get good quality!!!

Linux live cd with good antivirus scan?
Milkduds
I was on a website, youtube and cgtextures.com and I was redirected to a fake rouge antivirus where it tells me my computer has x amount of threats blah blah blah. I quickly alt F4d out and scanned my computer. Nothing came up so I hope I didnt get anything. First off can someone explain to me a little about this fake antivirus scareware. I dont believe I have a computer with trojans malware or viruses becuase its only 2 months old and dedicated to 3D work. It runs windows7 64bit. This is why I am thinking it was definately a redirect.
I already have a linux live CD, but is there a good linux live CD that has a good virus scanner. That way incase I ever did get a virus I could remove it without reinstalling the OS and all my software which would take atleast a day.
Adding to the question. It doesnt seem like either of these websites would redirect to a virus scam site. Is it possible that one of the adds on the sites slipped through Googles radar and was actuall bad? I am mostly concerned as to why this happened.
Answer
Use a clean Windows or Mac computer and download this SystemRescueCD ISO
http://www.sysresccd.org/Main_Page
For Windows use the free ImgBurn to burn the ISO to a cd
(on a Mac use Apple's Disk Utility in the Applications > Utilities folder)
Research online what the BIO's boot key to hold to enter the BIO's for the infected computer.
Make sure the infected computer has a WIRED internet connection to the router with a Ethernet cable.
Insert the SystemRestorecd into the infected computer, boot and enter the BIO's, set the cd as the first boot option. You'll now boot into SystemRescue, select the Graphical interface.
You'll see a Terminal window, type the two following commands and press enter after each one
clamd
freshclam
clamd is the virus scanner, freshclam updates the definitions via the internet online
Next there is a icon on the bottom, mouse over it, click it and it should open to be Gparted.
Once Gparted window is open, look on the right popup menu for the list of drives, you want the FAT or NTSF formatted one that Windows uses, check the size too. It should be obvious. Now get the name of the drive Linux uses to identify it either sda1 or sda2 usually.
Once you got that, close Gparted Window.
Now back to terminal type the one of the following depending if it's sda1 or sda2 (or sda3 or sda4 etc for the windows drive)
ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /mnt/windows
ntfs-3g /dev/sda2 /mnt/windows
ntfs-3g /dev/sda3 /mnt/windows
ntfs-3g /dev/sda4 /mnt/windows
next type:
clamscan -vri /mnt/windows
and let her rip for a few hours, the monitor will likely sleep, you can use the mouse to wake it up.
come back and you'll have a status report and can quarantine infected files. Take the names and locations down to do research. If there are a lot, then you need to grab your files, you'll need to factory restore Windows.
Either boot into safe mode on windows and attempt to transfer files or better yet
On a safe machine, burn a ISO of Ubuntu downloaded from this page (easiest and direct way)
http://www.linuxliveusb.com/en/help/guide/step2
Use the ImgBurn or OS X Disk Utility and follow the same boot methods on the infected computer like above. You don't need a internet connection, but you do need a blank FAT formatted external USB drive (Windows or OS X Disk Utility can format that)
Hook up the external to the infected computer, boot off the Ubuntu cd and "try" Ubuntu, once the desktop appears, simply select the Places menu > Computer and select the Windows drive, navigate to your files and copy them to the external drive window via drag and drop methods.
It's also possible from the terminal on SystemRestoreCd to copy files to a external drive as well, but this takes some knowledge, I used the Ubuntu GUI method as the easiest.
The advantage of a Linux Live cd scan is that Windows doesn't run, thus the malware doesn't run and the cd is write protected, a different OS and the more secure Linux as well. Malware has little chance to lie to you this way like it does when Windows is running. Also Linux scans the whole drive, instead of a malware controlled Windows only scanning parts it wants you to scan.
Once you get a clean Windows computer again, you should first have your external drive virus scanned and cleaned on a Linux or OS X machine before hooking back to your new clean Windows, new malware comes out all the time so definitions need to be updated and a rescan done.
