ESET NOD32 Antivirus for Linux Desktop
Dear Android Linux,
Any Linux user will have a ROFLMAO attack and instant brain aneurysm, if a Windows user tells him that Linux needs antivirus protection ! Ha ha ha ha ha LoL LOL !
Whew! … that was close
Any way, apparently the most obvious reason to have an antivirus protection on Linux is when you have or work in a mixed environment. Lets say, you have a Linux PC/Laptop/Netbook for the real life stuff and a Windows PC for gaming that are connected to each other for file sharing.
2Click Update version 5.6
After a month of delay, for testing purposes, I am releasing the new version of 2Click Update (2cu) and 2cuCORE. This version is a result of collaboration and contribution by the community. I have to thank Nathan Douglas and Mark Obad for their contribution to the code of this version and the translations provided by the launchpad community.
Comparison: Ubuntu update manager and 2clickUpdate
After publishing the 5.5.version of 2click Update, it got an unexpected attention by the community. Many referral links, reviews, code contribution, translations and some emails pointing in one general question:

Let me give you a better description of what makes 2click Update a “smart robot”(script).
2click Update v5.5: Going Lightning with Axel
I am pleased to announce that 2click Update version 5.5 of 5.X series is out. In this major release the entire structure of code has changed. The code is structured in a modular way so that every feature is just a module. Also a new feature is available that will automatically boost the downloading of upgrades in a way that traditional apt-get cannot. The new module is called Speed-apt.

Behind the scenes…
Not so long ago in WebUpd8 I came across with Axel, a simple piece of software that tries to accelerate HTTP/FTP downloading process by using multiple connections for one file. It can use multiple mirrors for a download. Axel has no dependencies and is lightweight, so it might be useful as a wget clone on byte-critical systems.
Combine Dropbox with Ubuntu One
Dropbox is a file hosting service operated by Dropbox, Inc. which uses cloud computing to enable users to store and share files and folders with others across the Internet using file synchronization. There are both free and paid services, each with varying options; the service is cross-platform, with client programs available for several different operating systems as well as a Web-based client.
