Xar File Format Specification Xar Format Specification An open standard file format for vector graphics on the Web. Abstract The Xar file format, previously known as the Flare file format, is an ultra-compact, open, vector graphic format. It is also the native graphics format for Xara X application (and also its predecessors such as CorelXARA). This document describes the format in detail and provides information for third parties interested in converting to or from this graphics format. Why another vector graphics format? The Xar file format is not new. It dates back nearly ten years and so it predates more recent formats such as SVG. It is not designed to compete with SVG, but Xar files are considerably simpler to understand (the SVG spec is 700 pages) and more compact (often one tenth the size). However the primary reason for the existence of the open file format specification is to enable third parties to read and write the Xara X native files. Background The Xar vector graphic structure is that of modern vector programs, based on the Adobe Postscript rendering model, but with additional features. The graphic primitives are broadly similar to those available in Postscript, PDF and SVG. However Xara X, and thus the .xar file format, support more advanced graphic primitives and effects, for example a greater range of graduated fill types, graduated transparency, feathered vector shapes (soft edges), soft shadows and more. These enable the talented artist to create highly realistic and more ‘painterly’ effects with Xara X than is possible with traditional vector graphics solutions. See http://www.xara.com/gallery/ The format is designed so that rendering can be started before the entire file is available. The format is extendible, with a degree of forwards and backwards compatibility (this means older version of the software can still read files produced by newer version of the authoring software – they simply ignore the objects or parts they do not understand). Part of the reason for this compactness is that Xar files are binary, rather than plain text as is SVG (which is XML). But with the recent movement towards a binary XML format, in - 1 - order to overcome the verbose nature of XML (and SVG), it seems things might come full circle. On the other hand Xara X offers a plain text variant of the .xar file (file extension .wix) which can help in understanding the structure of .xar files. Status of this Document This format was previously known as the Flare format but is now called Xar format. This document has been updated to describe the format as implemented by versions of XaraX up to and including Xara Xtreme 3.0.

The Ark Handbook Chapter 1 Introduction Ark is a program for viewing, extracting, creating and modifying archives. Ark can handle vari- ous archive formats such as tar, gzip, bzip2, zip, rar, 7zip, xz, rpm, cab, deb, xar and AppImage (support for certain archive formats depends on the appropriate command-line programs being installed). In order to successfully use Ark, you need KDE Frameworks 5. The library libarchive version 3.1 or above is needed to handle most archive types, including tar, compressed tar, rpm, deb and cab archives. To handle other file formats, you need the appropriate command line programs, such as zipinfo, zip, unzip, rar, unrar, 7z, lsar, unar and lrzip. 5 The Ark Handbook Chapter 2 Using Ark 2.1 Opening Archives To open an archive in Ark, choose Open...

You can direct download the latest version from this page: http://arduino.cc/en/Main/Software, When the download finishes, unzip the downloaded file. Make sure to preserve the folder structure. Double-click the folder to open it. There should be a few files and sub-folders inside. Connect Seeeduino to PC. Connect the Seeeduino board to your computer using the USB cable. The green power LED (labeled PWR) should go on. Install the driver. Installing drivers for the Seeeduino with window7. Plug in your board and wait for Windows to begin its driver installation process. After a few moments, the process will fail. Open the Device Manager by right clicking “My computer” and selecting control panel. Look under Ports (COM & LPT). You should see an open port named "USB Serial Port" Right click on the "USB Serial Port" and choose the "Update Driver Software" option. Next, choose the "Browse my computer for Driver software" option. Finally, select the driver file named "FTDI USB Drivers", located in the "Drivers" folder of the Arduino Software download. Note: the FTDI USB Drivers are from Arduino. But when you install drivers for other Controllers, such as Xadow Main Board, Seeeduino Clio, Seeeduino Lite, you need to download corresponding driver file and save it. And select the driver file you have downloaded. The below dialog boxes automatically appears if you have installed driver successfully.

    Breaking Antivirus Software Joxean Koret, COSEINC 44CON, 2014 Breaking antivirus software Introduction Attacking antivirus engines Finding vulnerabilities Exploiting antivirus engines Antivirus vulnerabilities Conclusions Recommendations Antivirus Engines Common features of AV engines: Written in C/C++. Signatures based engine + heuristics. On-access scanners. Command line/GUI on-demand scanners. Support for compressed file archives. Support for packers. Support for miscellaneous file formats. Advanced common features: Packet filters and firewalls. Drivers to protect the product, anti-rootkits, etc... Anti-exploiting toolkits. Antivirus products or engines An antivirus engine is just the core, the kernel, of an antivirus product. Some antivirus engines are used by multiple products. For example, BitDefender is the most widely used antivirus kernel. It's used by so many products like QiHoo360, G-Data, eScan, F-Secure, etc... Most “big” antivirus companies have their own engine but not all. And some companies, like F-Secure, integrate 3rd party engines in their products. In general, during this talk I will refer to AV engines, to the kernels, except when specified the word “product”. Attack surface Fact: installing an application in your computer makes you a bit more vulnerable. You just increased your attack surface. If the application is local: your local attack surface increased. If the application is remote: your remote attack surface increased. If your application runs with the highest privileges, installs kernel drivers, a packet filter and tries to handle anything your computer may do... Your attack surface dramatically increased. Myths and reality Antivirus propaganda: “We make your computer safer with no performance penalty!” “We protect against unknown zero day attacks!”.
