Today, I bought brand new metal rose pink 1TB Sony External Hard Drive (HD-E1), I connected it to USB drive to add some files, but when my AVG Internet Security 2012 and Microsoft Security Essentials 2012 scanned it automatically, both program showed that there is dangerous threats and "Password Protection Managere Setup" program (that's inside the drive) is infected by unknown virus Win32/DH{DAMANQ}.
I was shocked and quickly searched through the internet about this issue and looked for solution, but never found about infected brand new hard drive. on the back of the drive, there are Korean and Chinese Characters (Kanji) and it is also written "Made in Philippines", I never heard of fake Hard Drive, is it not Genuine?? or defected item?
PLEASE HELP!!!
I know that PC processor cannot handle two antivirus, installing two antivirus in in one system crashes the PC&laptops.
"Microsoft Security Essentials 2012" is one of the small program that included with "Windows Update", is it like "Windows Firewall" that comes installed in all the brand new PCs&laptops.

most likely it's a false positive, meaning you antivirus's heuristic algorithms find the program suspicious so it's flagging it as a virus when infact it may be safe. I wouldnt worry about it, just add to your antivirus except list.
or
if you are paranoid like me, create a new partition table, create a new partition, format the partition (non-quick). All data on the drive will be erased, including this flagged software.
Step 1:
Download Parted Magic (a portable linux Operating System), burn the iso file to a blank cd or dvd
Step 2:
Boot Parted Magic and open Gparted (Your computer must be set to boot from DVD/CD drive)
Step 3:
Select your external drive (assuming it shows up, parted magic may not support your drive)
Step 4:
Create new partition table (MSdos, selected by default), Create new primary Partition (NTFS)
Step 5:
Boot into your normal Operating sytem (window i'm assuming)
Step 6:
Go to "Computer" or in xp "My Computer" and right click on your external drive, choose format
use NTSF and disable the quick-format check box. This will take a long time.
Your drive has a new parition table, and has had all paritions (including hidden) erased and a new partition made, plus all old data wiped to prevent recovery using third party tools.

What computer technologies should I expect in 2012?

I want to buy a new gaming laptop for collage.I have this year an 1+ from high school and I am going to go in 2011-2012 in collage. I want a top gaming laptop of 3500-5500$
Will there be a new CPU, Graphic card, Ram that will be much faster then ?
Answer
This is sort of a pointless question.
Of course there will be new CPU's, new GPU's, faster and higher capacity RAM and hard drives. They are in a constant state of change, and new additions to each of those categories come out at least once a year, so you're looking at at least 2 generations better than what we have now.
But you might want to rethink your strategy, as a super powerful gaming laptop is not very portable and it's battery life will suck. And as a college student myself, you are going to want a laptop that you can take where ever you need, easily (both weight and size) and something that wont die in an hour. Come back to Yahoo Answers when you are ready to buy a gaming laptop, as any advice as to parts is pure speculation and will lead you astray.
