I recently had someone ask me how to get past the Android’s Pattern Pin. The problem is that there are random times when your phone could just “Poof!” in-validate the pattern pin sequence and lock you out of the phone. If this happens, you immediately lose access to your phone. Sure, you can enter the @google username and password, but most of the time it doesn’t accept; even if you try it on gmail.com and you know for sure you have the correct info.

If this ever happens to you, here’s three ways to go about bypassing that problem. The first solution is a simple user/pass bypass to fake your way through it. The second is a more drastic way of factory-reset and you do lose everything on your phone. The third is a debug way IF you had USB Debugging turned on.

See how after the jump.

Virtumonde
This guide is under construction and thus, the info is very quick and not-at-all-flashy.

Threat: High

Description
Virtumonde is a root kit trojan. By definition it installs itself into your computer and changes certain system files to always re-enable itself no matter what you do. One of those files is the system beep (audio file). Among other things, it burries itself inside the system restore, multiple edits in the system registry, and random files in the /windows/system32 folder.

BlizzCon at Anaheim, CA

Information on the new Cataclysm Expansion Pack for World of Warcraft, StarCraft II, and Diablo III. It was fun trying to get tickets. So many people tried to get tickets that they crashed the servers, not once, not twice, but three times. Blizzard resorted to turning tickets into a lottery. i was fortunate enough to get one.
