The interface of the application is extremely simple and easy to use. It is not exactly a tile based interface but it is simple and easy to navigate through with your hands or the mouse.

Free Graphical Live Website HTML Editor: Amaya

Posted: 25 Nov 2012 05:00 PM PST


Amaya is a combination of a web browser and a HTML editor which you can use to edit websites while browsing the web. This free web authoring tool was created by the famous W3 website, more precisely by the consortium that stands behind it. With Amaya you can easily switch between your websites and make quick changes with one of it’s numerous HTML editing tools.

Amaya default window

Amaya is available for all three major operating systems, so it doesn’t matter whether you use Windows, Linux or Mac, you’ll be able to install it on all of them, and when you run the program, you should see what you see on the image above. Good news for those who have problems remembering all the different HTML tags is that Amaya is a graphical editor, and in order to add HTML objects, like tables, paragraphs or just plain images to the website that you’re making you’re only gonna have to click and select Insert. Some of the features that Amaya has are:

  • Graphical HTML editing of online and offline files
  • Tabs – for opening several documents at once
  • Large selection of pre-loaded HTML tags for automatic insertion
  • Spell checking and code clean-up
  • Split views for source code and real time website preview

Even though we mentioned that with the help of Amaya’s graphical HTML editor, you’re not gonna have problems remembering HTML tags, that doesn’t mean that you don’t have to know how HTML works. Some basic knowledge is necessary, it’s always a much better idea that next to graphical editing you rely on manual code editing as well, because otherwise a lot of junk code is gonna end up in the websites that you create, added by the graphical editor.

Similar software: medit, Tag Controller, Write Monkey.

How to use Amaya – online and offline HTML editor

A lot of people are probably wondering how exactly does online file editing with Amaya work. It basically goes like this, you enter the address of the online location where you want to edit the HTML files, after which they are gonna be opened as editable documents in a new tab:

Amaya editing online document

Notice the address bar at the top, it’s an actual website and we are making changes to the document hosted on that website. To activate the source code view, you’re gonna have to click on View >> Source code. As you click on places in the graphical preview of the document, down below in the source view, you should also see a change in the code. In the right toolbar you have elements, styles, attributes and other HTML objects that you can add to websites. Saving is when the magic happens:

Amaya authentication dialog

You’ll be asked for the server access information, so that files can be accessed and saved. You didn’t have to open an FTP client, or anything like that, simply open a website and start editing, when done, enter the login information and changes will be saved. Next to this useful feature, Amaya has amazing HTML editing functions, download it and try it, it’s free and it works on Windows, Linux and Mac.

Posted: 25 Nov 2012 09:00 AM PST


Kaspersky Windows Unlocker is a free registry scanner which is gonna look for any signs of malware infections and of course it’s gonna try and delete the problematic registry entries so that Windows can start working normally once again, for it to become unblocked. Ransom malware is specialty of Windows Unlocker, which is a good thing, because people can actually lose money because of ransom malware.

Kaspersky Unblocker default window

There’s no graphical interface for Windows Unlocker, what you see on the image above is pretty much everything that you’re gonna see. Since this small utility is designed to fix systems which are beyond repair, it’s located on the Kaspersky Rescue CD, which is a live Linux distribution from which you boot your computer and you have an actual system opened up for you armed with Kaspersky tools for malware removal.

Similar software: ERA Removal, Argente Utilities, Windows Repair.

How to delete and repair registry malware infections with Kaspersky Windows Unlocker

The first step that you need to take would be to download the Kaspersky Rescue CD which is free. Size of the download is a bit bigger, around 250MB. There’s no way around this download, seeing how Windows Unlocker is only available from the rescue CD. Download should consist of a single image file. Use a CD burner and burn it to a CD, after which you’re gonna have to boot your computer from that very same CD. You’ll be notified when your computer is starting when to tap a keyboard key to select the boot device priority.

Kaspersky Unblocker running Unblocker

Once that the system opens up, run the Terminal from the menu, and there type in “windowsunlocker” which is the command that’s gonna start Windows Unlocker. Once you type it in and hit enter you should see what can be seen on the first image above. There are three options to choose from:

  • Unlock Windows
  • Save boot sector copies
  • Exit

You should type in number 1 and hit enter. That’s gonna start the scanning process which is gonna look for errors on all the partitions of your computer. All the systems present on your computer are also gonna be checked and fixed, for example if you have several versions of Windows running on the same machine, Unlocker is gonna scan registries on all of them and fix them all automatically:

Kaspersky Unblocker scan in progress

After the scan is completed you’ll be able to open a report file where all of the detected registry infections and fixes which were applied are gonna be listed. Report files should be located in var >> kl or var >> tmp. Once you check out the log, it’s time to restart and keep your fingers crossed that Windows Unlocker helped out.

Conclusion

With ever increasing amounts of malware that exists out there, even the slightest error in judgement, run the wrong file, click the wrong link and you end up infected. In these types of situations you can always reinstall the system, but that could be very time consuming. Kaspersky Windows Unlocker might help out. It’s a bit difficult to handle, but it does the job as advertised. It’s free, try it, see how it can help, if it did, then great, if not keep looking for a file scanner. Free download.
