Google Chrome and Chromium add protection against malicious downloads

google chrome malicious download
Google Chrome already sports a number of security-minded features, from Incognito mode to a software sandbox which makes exploiting the browser a Herculean task. Now, Google has announced additional protection for Chromium and Chrome users.

Built upon the Safe Browsing API, the new feature introduces protection against malicious downloads. If a download link appears in the Safe Browsing blacklist, Chrome and Chromium will warn users against downloading -- a save button is still presented, of course, in case you're convinced a file is perfectly safe to download.

We'd like to see something a bit more eye-catching than the red warning icon -- like perhaps painting the entire bar red. Many of the people a feature like this aims to protect probably won't notice the icon or change in wording as they'll be focused on clicking the save button.

Google is initially making download protection available to Chrome dev channel users, and you'll likely see it in Canary and Chromium snapshot builds as well. After thorough testing, beta and stable users will be next in line.

Tony Hawk: Ride Skateboard Bundle Is the Olliefied Deal of the Day [Dealzmodo]

When I was in college—college, my god, did that really happen? like really truly, with the shots and the khakis and the one roommate who never showered but knew Yeats better than Yeats' mother?—we played video games. We played them with the kind of high functioning beta-male vigor that would've been better spent on grades or girls or folding laundry appropriately or doing laundry at all than on Super Mario Kart. We played them with conviction and intent. We played them in a Popov-fueled frenzy that nearly always ended in resentment and gas. And while we had our Madden moments and our Smash Brothers soirees, the one game we always came back to was Tony Hawk Pro Skater. The original. I am old. You will be, too, eventually. Playing as Tony Hawk was for Pepsi-drinking yahoos. For months I lived and breathed Bob Burnquist, who had a sick-looking but easily executed move called the Burntwist and who holds, I later discovered, dual citizenship in Brazil and the US. More »

Microsoft releases sexy Bing app for iPad

It's still a bit odd seeing Microsoft deliver apps for Apple's mobile platform. And it's even stranger still to see one as sexy as the new Bing app for iPad, which brings a slick, immersive search experience to Apple's tablet.

Just as a regular search on bing.com will, the Bing app for iPad tailors the results it displays based on what you're searching for. There are loads of custom views, covering everything from movies and maps to weather and shopping. The app also offers a heads-up display of currently trending searches, complete with related images, which is an iPad-exclusive feature.

Navigation is a breeze thanks to multitouch controls, allowing users to flick or swipe through results. And while the development team refers to the app as "touch and decide," Bing Voice Search is also built in -- making it easy to start a query without using the iPad's on-screen keyboard.

The Bing app for iPad is available for download now from the App Store.

Hey PC Makers: Don't Quit, Fight! [PCs]

What does it mean when the world's largest PC manufacturer quits? Some say it's the death knell for PCs. That may be the case, but only because companies, like HP, are turning tail and running rather than fighting back. Don't. More »
