win32/sirefef.bc aka ZeroAccess.b!env Trojan vs Windows Firewall on Windows 8 : How to Fix

Last night i encounter a trojan called win32/sirefef.bc. It's also known as ZeroAccess.b!env by McAfee. It has been around for 4 months for now.

SGC100 Guide: How to Upgrade your Samsung Galaxy Camera to firmware XXALK1 (and Root)

Earlier this month i bought Samsung Galaxy Camera. Funny i never settle with something as is, so i look for updates, mods and tweaks.
When i bought my Galaxy Camera, its firmware is XXALJF.
Then i found out for my region, which means same CSC, there's newer firmware which is XXALK1. If you don't know the naming scheme by Samsung, the second from the end, J & K represents month the firmware released, so J represent October and K represent November, which obviously means that it is newer than my current firmware.

This method is intended for APAC releases, with 4.0.4 firmware out of the box, which in my case come out with P3100XXBLE3. Although these upgrade were intended for XSP and XME (Singapore and Malaysia) but actually APAC firmware are mostly the same, which also contain Bahasa Indonesia.

Notable upgrades: The major difference is that your tab will no longer in tablet mode but in Phablet mode just like Nexus 7. Well it's for you to decide which one is better.

WARNING!: There is a downside by upgrading with this method, that is your phone status will be "MODIFIED". Also you will need to WIPE your internal memory. Do BACKUP first!
