Magento Ecommerce framework is built to support any languages.

This is Enable multilingual feature in magento.

Best Practices to Protect your System

{ Posted on 2:06 AM by Marvin Fernandez }
Turn Off autoplay for removable drives
how?
modify your registry: go to run -> type regedit and locate this
HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> Software -> Microsoft -> Windows -> CurrentVersion -> Policies -> Explorer -> "NoDriveTypeAutoRun"

the default value is 95 0 0 0. change the first 2 digit to 91.

-this can prevent viruses residing in the removable drives like memory cards, flash drives etc. some malwares has autorun.inf file inclusion that runs the virus when the user double clicks the drive.

Install Reliable Antivirus
what?
I suggest use Avast, a free home version is available but if you have budget, you can purchase the pro version. Avast is more reliable in detecting trojans and rootkits which usually steals information from your system.

Always install updates for your operating system.
- if you are using the genuine one.

Never download suspicious files and attached files in your email.

learn the virus thing.
visit www.psvx.org, this is a filipino VXER (Virus Writer) , AVER (Antivirus Writer) and enthusiast organization which aims to educate and help people protect themselves..

Firefox is Web Developer's Bestfriend

{ Posted on 2:14 AM by Marvin Fernandez }
When I started to work as a web programmer for a company here in Davao, I started to know how powerful mozilla firefox is. I discovered some of the firefox plug-ins that helps web developers make their work easy. One of the most critical factors that affects web developers is "Time". We cannot extend deadlines as much as we can. So, we put ourselves in too much preassures and stress games.

Mozilla has a solution! they have these following add-ons which can really be helpful:

Firebug: This tool is integrated in the web browser and gives you the power to monitor HTML, CSS, and javascript errors in any web page.

Check you viral status

{ Posted on 3:12 AM by Marvin Fernandez }
Im back at blogging! After a month of job hunting and carreer enhancement, I finally open my blog. This time, I will introduce you to a new way of scanning the files that you were suspecting that contains any illegal codes and routines(viruses) that can harm your computer system.

virustotal.com is a website designed to scan files using the most powerful antivirus softwares like AVG, bit Defender, clam AV, and many more through web browsers. It's a good website to prevent users from running malicious files that is downloaded from the web.

It is a good alternative to manual scanning in PC's because it has more antiviruses running.
