Full review>>

The same super-heated visual imagination that made Guillermo del Toro's PAN'S LABYRINTH (2006) such a darkly thrilling delight is very much in evidence in his sequel to HELLBOY (2004). It's a shame that it's at the service of such a blandly conventional story.

Hellboy (Ron Perlman), a cigar-chomping demon with an ossified red right hand like a piledriver, entered our world in 1944, courtesy of a Nazi experiment in mucking around with interdimensional barriers. Raised by British occultist Trevor Bruttenholm (John Hurt) to use his supernatural powers for good, not evil, Hellboy works for the tio-secret Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense, protecting regular folks from the likes of, well… him. Or pallid Prince Nuada (Luke Goss) of the Old Ones, who looks like one of J.R.R. Tolkien's flaxen-haired elves crossed with Marilyn Manson. Nuada has spent centuries perfecting his swordsmanship and seething about the truce his father struck with the human race, giving us the world above and confining ghosties, ghoulies and long-leggedy beasties to the world below. Nuada intends to raise the Golden Army – unstoppable automata controlled by a mystical crown – and take back the light for the powers of darkness. But first he has to reassemble the three parts of the crown, one of which is being protected by his twin sister, Nuala (Anna Walton), who's as pure of heart as Nuada is wicked. It's up to Hellboy and his cohorts – vaporous Johann Krauss (Jason Alexander and James Dodd, voiced by Seth MacFarlane), fire-starter Liz (Selma Blair) and aqua-man Abe Sapien (del Toro regular Doug Jones) – to stop him, a task complicated by their complicated entanglements: Liz is unhappily married to Hellboy and secretly pregnant to boot, while Abe has fallen in love with Nuala.

Wrathful twin vs. gentle twin, good vs. evil, light vs. dark – call it archetypal or call it clichéd, but its reductively familiar stuff. But, oh, the visions that emerge from del Toro's fan-boy fever dreams – a talking tumor, a beast with a retractable mace for an arm (and a face straight out of 1970's cult-favorite EQUINOX), an elegant death angel, a giant stone statue that opens into an underground city, a swarm "tooth fairies" who eat through flesh and bone like avenging locusts, a troll market beneath the Brooklyn Bridge, a primordial plant elemental that could be the love-child of H.P. Lovecraft and Mother Nature in an especially stormy mood, the golden army that could have sprouted from metal dragons' teeth… the wonders are, if not endless, then abundant. And in a movie landscape where "effects" too often supersedes "special," wonders are worth savoring. --Maitland McDonagh

Will Smith plays a suicidal, alcoholic superhero. Yes, it's a comedy. Director Peter Berg can do dark comedy – remember Very Bad Things? -- and Smith's through-the-roof likability will help with the suicidal, alcoholic part. Former Arrested Development lovebirds Jason Bateman and Charlize Theron costar as a PR executive and his wife who attempt to reform Hancock -- and his image.

Program antivirus diharapkan bisa mencegah masuknya para penyusup jahat ke dalam PC. Lalu program antivirus apa yang terbaik saat ini?


AV-Test telah mengujinya untuk Anda. Sebanyak 24 program antivirus telah dijajal fitur keamanannya membendung serangan satu juta sampel malware. Produk-produk tersebut telah diuji selama enam bulan terakhir untuk mendeteksi dan menghapus Trojan Horse, backdoor, bot, worm dan virus.

Hasil pengujian dibedakan menjadi beberapa ranking. Level penilaian tertinggi ‘very good’ (++) jika mampu mendeteksi lebih dari 98 % sampel sementara level terendah ‘poor’ (–) ketika antivirus hanya bisa mendeteksi malware kurang dari 85 persen.

Untuk kategori signature-based on-demand detection, Windows Live OneCare 2.0 memonopoli penilaian karena mampu mendeteksi total 992,880 sampel malware. Jika dihitung rata-rata “Signature Detection” mencapai 96,9 persen. Windows Live OneCare yang muncul awal tahun 2007 mampu mengungguli antivirus lain seperti F-Prot (986,961 – 96.3%), Panda (979,409 – 95.6%), McAfee (959,919 – 93.7%), dan Nod32 (953,936 – 93.1%).

Namun demikian dalam kategori “Signature Detection”, OneCare 2.0 kalah dari AVK 2008 (1,022,418 – 99.8%); AntiVir (1,020,627 – 99.6%); Avast! (1,018,204 – 99.4%); Trend Micro (1,009,662 – 98.6%); Symantec (1,006,849 – 98.3%); AVG (1,005,006 – 98.1%); BitDefender (1,003,902 – 98.0%); Kaspersky (1,003,470 – 98.0%);Sophos (1,001,655 – 97.8%) dan F-Secure (999,806 – 97.6%). Sementara saat pengujian 65.000 file yang bersih dari virus, hanya produk-produk yang pendeteksiannya tidak salah yang diberi ranking ‘very good’ (++). Windows Live OneCare adalah salah satunya. Program milik Microsoft ini bersaing dengan Symantec, Nod32, dan Fortinet.

Untuk ketegori proactive detection AV Test tidak hanya mengetes berdasar signature dan heuristic. AV Test juga memperhatikan kualitas fitur antivirus saat menjaga PC. Deepguard yang terdapat di F-Secure dan TruPrevent di Panda menjadi yang terbaik. Sebanyak 3.500 sampel digunakan untuk pengujian, 20 sampel di antaranya merupakan malware ‘Dynamic Detection’.

Dari sisi waktu respon, WindowsLive OneCare ternyata sangat lambat mendeteksi adanya malware baru. Lebih dari delapan jam. Padahal nilai terbaik ‘Very good’ hanya diberikan pada antivirus yang mampu memindai kurang dari dua jam. Kelemahan OneCare 2,0 di antaranya tidak bisa mendeteksi dua rootkit dari total 12 rootkit aktif yang dicobakan.

Kesimpulan

Berdasarkan test-test diatas memang tidak ada antivirus yang paling unggul disemua tahap pengetesan. Tetapi paling tidak bisa diambil beberapa antivirus yang cukup bagus dari kesemua test. Beberapa test mungkin tidak terlalu penting untuk diperhitungkan, seperti reaction times. Waktu reaksi 6-8 jam pun bisa dikatakan cukup bagus bagi kita. Selain itu Rootkit detection juga bukan hal yang begtu penting, mengingat saat ini masih sangat jarang jenis rootkit ini. Jadi kesimpulan disini hanya menilai dari tiga test sebelumnya. Dan ini pun mungkin sangat subyektif. Berikut Urutan Virus terbaik versi ebsoft berdasar test-test (3 test pertama) diatas :

  1. AntiVir. Hampir disemua test mempunyai hasil yang sangat bagus. Ditambah lagi Antivir menyediakan versi Gratis, walaupun tidak semua fasilitas disediakan. Memang kadang masih salah mendeteksi beberapa file yang bersih sebagai virus. Antivir Web site
  2. AVK 2008. Antivirus ini mungkin jarang kita dengar di negeri kita, tetapi berdasarkan test diatas, menduduki peringkat tertinggi dalam mendeteksi virus. Tetapi hal ini harus dibayar dengan kesalahan mendeteksi yang dihasilkan. Selain itu AVK merupakan antivirus berbayar, belum ada versi gratisnya. Selengkapnya bisa dilihat disini GData Secutiry Labs
  3. Avast. Hasil mendeteksi virus cukup bagus. Selain itu Avast juga juga menyediakan versi gratis, yang bisa di download langsung dari websitenya. Selengkapnya disini
  4. Trend Micro. Selengkapnya disini Trend Micro
  5. Symantec. Selengkapnya buka Symantec web site
  6. AVG. Versi gratis bisa download di http://free.grisoft.com
  7. BitDefender. Selengkapnya tentang BitDefender disini

His Holiness the Guru Pitka (Mike Myers), the second-best guru in India, is hired by the Toronto Maple Leafs to reunite their star player, Darren Roanoke (Weeds' Romany Malco), with his wife, thus securing their Stanley Cup chances. Jessica Alba plays the eye candy and the ubiquitous Justin Timberlake costars as a horny Quebecois puckhead. Myers has been working on this character for years. Will it be his next Austin Powers?

Edward Norton stars in the do-over of the incredible disaster that was Ang Lee's Hulk (2003) by French action director Louis Leterrier (the Transporter films). Norton is bound to deliver a real performance as the tormented Dr. Bruce Banner. Ditto Tim Roth as Banner's nemesis. As for the familiar-looking CGI effects that take up so much of the trailer, well, reserve judgment and try not to think War of the Gargantuas.

~Bila Rasaku ini Rasamu~
by: Kerispatih

Aku Memang Terlanjur Mencintaimu
Dan Tak Pernah Ku Sesali Itu
Seluruh Jiwa Telah Ku Serahkan
Menggenggam Janji Setiaku

Kumohon Jangan Jadikan Semua Ini
Alasan Kau Menyakitiku
Meskipun Cintamu Tak Hanya Untukku
Tapi Cobalah Sejenak Mengerti

*Reff:

Bila Rasaku Ini Rasamu
Sanggupkah Engkau Menahan Sakitnya
Terkhianati Cinta Yang Kau Jaga

Coba Bayangkan Kembali
Betapa Hancurnya Hati Ini Kasih
Semua Telah Terjadi

Back To *

Aku Memang Terlanjur Mencintaimu...

Download this sample song*

*Pay for the original one
