How do I detect FinFisher?

Please don't respond with a link to the cease and desist article. I've already read it. It's old news to me, and it tells me nothing about my concerns.
I'd really like to know how to figure out whether my computer is compromised. Firefox is my most-often-used web browser: am I infected right now? How long could it have gone on? Can I even trust any dialog messages saying that my browser is due for an update? Is there any AV software that can detect it?

Whoops. I guess there was still material yet to read.
I'm sorry to sound panicked. It was just a feeling of powerlessness on my part because this shady surveillance contractor has a reputation of complete invisibility.
Still, thanks for helping me out; I don't feel so creeped out any more.

How can i detect if the picture or swf file is produced from legal flash?

I have recently bought images and swf files from a student for my website.
I've just realized that the images and swf might be from pirated flash product because i found out that
the original flash is really and i mean really pricey! I don't believe he bought an original product.
How do i detect if it is from a legal product? I'm worried as i'm going to put it in my website.
I can't get the guy who did this for me as he is in another country already.
If it is possible to detect this and it is indeed from pirated product, how can i make it legal again?
Please help.

Hey Rob,
Its the same question, just that i want to know if it is possible to trace the source if the file is an image.
If it is not possible to trace the source be it a swf or an image file, then i will just upload it to my website.
I wouldn't bother to check if it came from a pirated flash product.
The image is created from flash 8 just for me. It is not downloaded from another source.
Thanks.

How can I detect a dialog and respond?

I'm having trouble doing something that's probably not that hard. I'm trying to "Print to PDF" a bunch of old AppleWorks documents. When you open a document created in AppleWorks v6 it opens right up, but when you open a document created in AppleWorks 5 you get a dialog box that says, "This document was created by a previous version of AppleWorks. A copy will be opened and "[v6.0]" will be added to the filename."
Right now I open the file and then:
tell application "AppleWorks 6"
        activate
        repeat while not (exists front document)
                delay .2
        end repeat
end tell
When the dialog box pops up, there's no front document so the whole thing freezes until you hit OK. How can I detect this dialog box and dismiss it?
Thanks
PS
When the box is open I ran this and got this result:
/usr/bin/osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get properties of windows of application process "AppleWorks 6"'

Hi,
The simplest would be to set the application preferences in the script.
Like this :
-- *** set prefs ****
tell application "AppleWorks 6"
      activate
      set oldPrefs to its preferences
      copy oldPrefs to tPrefs
      tell tPrefs
            set old version warning to false --doesn't show the old version warning alert
            set converted file suffix to true -- append “[v6.0]” to documents converted from older formats
            set locked file warning to false
            set paint reduction warning to false
      end tell
      set preferences to tPrefs
end tell
-- *** end set prefs ****
--**** your script, example ***
set tfiles to choose file with multiple selections allowed
tell application "AppleWorks 6"
      repeat with i in tfiles
            open i
            tell front document
                  -- do something
            end tell
      end repeat
end tell
--**** end your script ***
-- *** reset prefs ****
tell application "AppleWorks 6" to set preferences to oldPrefs

How can I detect a certain text within a field within CASE using IF

Dear all,
for a transformation / generation of values receiving from R/3 into BW I try to
manupulate three fields. I have a problem detecting a string in a field.
I am using a CASE with several WHEN clauses on one field. Depending on the
value, an IF is integrated. There I look into another field evaluating, if it contains
a certain string. E.g. IF STRING CP 'xyz' OR 'abc'.
System gives error for the locigal expression. I also tried CS, but same error.
How can I detect a certain text within a field and which is the right logical
expression.
Many thanks in advance!!!
Claudia

IF hex1 CP hex2.
ENDIF.

How can i detect if my PC is not on Network..... Urgent Pls Help Soon !!!!!

Hello Everyone,
We all know whenever we try to connect to a PC which is not on network, we get UnKnownHostException etc..... by which we can detect that the corresponding PC is not an network(intranet/internet)
But when i send a msg from my PC to my PC, it works fine even if the network is down. I hv provided my PC's IP address instead of using localhost or 127.0.0.1 which reduces the possibility that the msg will not be traversed thru the network.
Any IDEA how this works.
Is There any possible way by which i can detect that my PC is not on network or the PC to which i'm trying to connect is not on network .......
Pls help me out, its really urgent as to be implemented in my Project
Thanks In Advance

How to ENABLE detection of duplicate messages in Mavericks Mail?

Hello,
There was a good discussion of how to disable detection of duplicate messages in Lion mail - https://discussions.apple.com/message/18265121#18265121
but unfortunately nothing seems to work to turn them ON in Mavericks.
In Lion or Mt. Lion I do see duplicate messages - but in Mavericks I do not - but I want to see if there are duplicates for a variety of reasons.
In the post referenced above none of the command line suggestions seem to make a difference. My mail perference settings are idential on each system, be it Lion, Mr. Lion or Mavericks. Settings as follows:
Please note 'include related messages' seems to make no difference either way.
Can anyone please tell me how to display duplicates in Mavericks. Thank you very much in advance.
E.

As a quick update, the following command DOES in fact show the duplicates in the mail folder:
defaults write com.apple.mail AlwaysShowDuplicates -bool true
So, if there are two exact messages (one sent to me at [email protected] and one forwarded to that email address and sent to me at [email protected], BOTH will show up as separate messages.
But to be clear, what I want to see is a single message with the '1 Duplicate' indicated in the message header.
Any way to do that in Mavericks?
Again, thanks in advance.

How to automatically detect server ip address

does any one know how to automatically detect an ip address of a server from the client with a socket based connection ?
instead of prompting the client to connect to the server ip address which is trouble some.

You must start with some initial information and a known environment.
There are several possibilities after that.
- The server has a 'name'. This is not an ip address but a name like "yahoo.com". When you connect using that, even if the IP changes, the correct IP will be returned. (At least ignoring an annoying bug in some VMs)
- A specific IP address
- Use a methodoly to 'request' a server address. One version of this is to use a UDP broadcast another version uses a service manager (which itself must be found.)

How does apex detect the MIMETYPE of an upload?

Hello,
I need to import a bunch of files from the OS filesystem to my own table (blob).
For implementing the download of these files I need to know the mimetype.
Now, the files are stored in my table, but I have no clue how to detect the mimetype of
my files (blob).
How does Apex detect the mimetype of an uploaded file?
Thanks,
Michael
Edited by: MJaro on 21.09.2010 15:52, Reason: little typo

Michael,
Mimetype detection is done during upload, if you don't have a mimetype column in your table where APEX can store it, this information is lost.

In AS3 how can you detect if someone pulls their camera out of the USB port?

In AS3 if the SWF gets a hold of someone's camera successfully and they start streaming video across and everything, but then mid-stream, either they accidentally wiggle their camera out of the USB port, or the camera just sort of breaks down, or something else like that, how could you detect it from that user's side? I've tried using event listeners and also polling different variables every five seconds, but neither has worked; none of the public properties of Camera or its events seem to act funny at all when something like that happens. And apparently you can't just keep scanning the computer for devices (for good reason, I guess).
Is there something I'm missing here? Is there a way to detect from a user's copy of a SWF (FP or AIR, but much more importantly FP) when their camera has effectively stopped as the result of something going wrong, such as them wiggling it out of the computer by mistake? If so how? Thanks!

Run your code and disconnect your camera. What are the common properties of it? Does your stream stop? Return only a specific color frame? Those things are usable to detect it but you're right in saying you can't detect much more than a loss of packets from a NetStream object.

How can we detect a virus on our mac?, How can we detect a virus on our mac?

We think we may have a virus from the USPS spam email. How can we detect a virus on our computer?

What makes you think there is a "virus"? Any symptoms...?
There are other types of malware (such as trojans) that can affect Mac OS X, but no viruses. A trojan would have to trick you into installing something (the malware) by making you think it is something else. You would be notified (by the system) that you are running a downloaded application for the first time, AND if something will be done to update your current system, you will be asked to authenticate (with your admin user name and password). If something like that comes up when you don't expect it, you should be suspicious (and NOT authenticate). Just opening an email won't do anything, even if it's an email that may affects Windows PCs.
This free utility can scan your Mac for malware.

BigString to Big String - how do I detect index of upper case?

bigString to Big String - how do I detect index of upper
case?
Is there a way to detect, insert space and replace the upper
case letters in a string?

Something like this?
<CFOUTPUT>#REReplace("bigString", "[A-Z]"," "&
Mid("bigString", REfind("[A-Z]", "bigString"),
1))#</CFOUTPUT>
This will at least give you a break at the first upper case
letter. You can then replace the first character in the result with
an upper case as well, which I didn't do, since I figured that you
knew how to do that.
