Removing the imgkulot script on your computer

May 7, 2008 · No Comments

Nowadays, people tend to experiment of scripts that would possess the characteristics of a virus or a worm…So if you happen to notice that when you right click on your hard drive…you can see a the drive letter with a word like this or similar to these “(IMGKULOT)”…another characteristic of this script is when you open folders..usually folders are opened on the same window…but once your computer is infected or you have triggered to run this script, the moment you open a window it forces to open a new window…also, before i forget…you cannot open your harddrive unless you right click it and choose open or you go the address bar of windows explorer and type the drive directory of your harddrive…this script doesn’t harm your computer but it will just irritate you because it affects or modify registry settings of your windows…

How to remove this? very simple…

1st step…
open “My Computer”, open your harddrive directory…if you have two partitions make sure you open the other…

2nd step…
open “Windows” folder, but first make sure that you don’t close the existing windows that you have opened..open the system32 folder as well…

3rd step…
enable folder option to view all hidden files…to do this..just click on Tools –> Folder Options…
once you have entered the folder options…click on the “View” tab…under the view tab look for the Hidden files and folders…once you found it, just choose the radio button option that says
“Show hidden files and folders”…

4th step…
now that all hidden files and folders are shown..you have to look for this follow files…

imgkulot.vbs
imgkulot.bat
imgkulot.reg
autorun.inf

Once you see these files on your drive’s directory, just delete these files right away…sames as with the system32 folder, look for these files and delete them…make sure that you are finished with deleting all the mentioned files before closing the opened windows of your drive’s directory and the system32 folder…

5th step…
Once you have deleted all the mentioned files from your drive’s directory and from the system32 folder..just restart your computer…then that’s it..

NOTES: always make sure that while deleting the files you do not close any of the folder directory that you have opened…just close it once you have deleted all the files from your computer..this scripts can be obtained commonly from usb drives…so before open flash drives of your computer..make sure you scan it always…

If you have any problem just post a comment below…good luck..

Photoshop Tutorial: Chrome Effect

May 3, 2008 · No Comments

This tutorial will show you how to add a cool-looking chrome effect to your text. This technique is of course not limited to just text — you can apply it to anything you want.

1.) Create a new document and choose a color from the Color Palette to fill the background with. You can also fill it with a seamless texture if you want, for added detail.

2.) Select the Marquee Selection Tool from the toolbar and draw a selection across the top half of the graphic. Now, create a new layer and then select the Gradient Tool to fill the selection with a gradient with a medium grey on top and white on the bottom (see example).

3.) Go to Select » Inverse to select the other half of the graphic which doesn’t have the gradient yet. Fill the selection with a gradient from black on top to a medium grey on the bottom. Now choose Select » All then press Ctrl+X to remove the new gradient texture for use later (don’t cut or copy anything though until then, or you’ll lose it).

4.) Now it’s time to make the selection for the shape or text that will have the chrome in it. For text, select the Type Tool and choose the the Type Mask Tool from the Options bar at the top of your screen (in earlier versions, drag to the right on the Type Tool icon). Type whatever text you want (you’ll want to make the font size reasonably large to get a clearer final effect), and then click the checkbox or OK. For other shapes, just draw them with the selection tools while holding SHIFT or ALT to get more complex selections.

5.) Now, fill the text or selection with a gradient from white on top to black on the bottom.

6.) Next, click Select » Modify » Contract » choose a value of 2 Pixels. Press Ctrl+Shift+V to paste the gradient texture that we made a bit earlier into the selection. Hold down the Ctrl Key on your keyboard and use the arrow keys if you want to adjust the position of the texture beneath the selection. When you’re done positioning, press Ctrl+E to merge down the layer.

7.) Your text probably looks pretty cool by now… but there’s one more step to finish it off. Load the Assorted Brushes (.abr file) from your brushes box and select the brush that looks like an X. Use your Airbrush Tool at a low pressure to add small highlights to a few of the edges of your text or shape. All done!
