Kaspersky releases decryption tool that unlocks ransomware

You never should have clicked on the email attachment. You'er infected ransomware's got you locked out of your own computer and is demanding money before you can use it again. Before you reach for your wallet, take a look at this decryption key generator that Kaspersky has built. The Netherland's National High Tech Crime Unit (NHTCU) recently got its hands on a CoinVault command-and-control server (a type of ransomware that has been infecting Windows systems since last November) and, upon examining it, discovered a large database of decryption keys. The NHTCU shared this information with Kaspersky which used it to build the Noransomware decryption tool. Granted, the program isn't 100 percent effective yet -- it's not like the NHTCU got all of the potential keys off of that one server or anything -- but as police forces around the world continue to investigate the CoinVault ransom campaign, Kaspersky expects to grow the key database and further improve the tool's functionality. Plus, it's still better than paying some schmuck hacker to give you back your digital dominion.
Also have a look at this.

Ubuntu Quantal sound not working dummy driver

Sound fix in 12.10

Sometimes after booting up Ubuntu 12.10 or Quantal sound system dies when you you access the sound in System Setting -> Sound the driver shows as Dummy no Output driver. The fix is simple you can either open a terminal and type:
--( >:-))-#-> sudo alsa force-reload
or
su as root then type:
--( >:-))-#-> alsa force-reload
That's the fix.

Key:
my prompt or P1 value = --( >:-))-#->
what you should type = sudo alsa force-reload
