The makers of the popular anti-malware software, Malwarebytes, announced earlier this week that anyone with a counterfeit code for Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Software (MBAM) will soon be given a legitimate code in its place. Instead of punishing pirates, Malwarebytes has developed an Amnesty Program to protect its Anti-Malware Premium customers “who have been inconvenienced by piracy or abuse.” It doesn’t matter if you made a shady purchase or you happened upon a Malwarebytes key posted in an underground forum. They’ll give you a 100% legit key and let you activate Malwarebytes Premium at absolutely no cost. The subscription is good for 12 months and the hope is that (former) pirates will take the olive branch, use the key, and then decide Malwarebytes really is worth a few bucks a year. The process of receiving a legit key will require users to open up the Amnesty Program and select one of two options. Users who select “I’m not sure where I got my key, I downloaded ...

Amazon is perhaps the biggest source of legal ebooks in the world, whether through the various Kindle apps you can find on mobile devices and even computers, or through the Kindle ebook readers. We've used the  Kindle Paperwhite  and the new Kindle 7th generation , and love using Amazon's ebook readers but having all your books stored on a single device or on the cloud is not ideal. Luckily, if you want to make a backup of the books you've legally bought for the Kindle, doing so is easy. This could be useful, for example, if you unintentionally erased books while on vacation, where you don't have Internet access. If you have a backup of your books on your laptop, this kind of problem is no issue at all. Making this backup can thus be quite useful, and doing this won't take you more than five minutes. Here's how: Follow these steps if you have a Kindle ebook reader. Connect your Kindle to the computer via a USB cable. The device will show up a...

 The  HTC Desire Eye  pricing for India has been tipped at Rs. 35,990 on Wednesday by a Mumbai-based retailer, who also claimed the smartphone is now available, ahead of an official announcement by the company. In October, during the  unveiling of the HTC Desire Eye in India , the company had not announced the price and said that the device will release in late November exclusively on Amazon India. This has not happened as yet, and the  HTC  India  website  still lists it as 'Coming soon'. NDTV Gadgets was also told of the availability of the Desire Eye at a similar price in New Delhi by another established retailer. The HTC Desire Eye is a selfie-focused smartphone that boasts of a front-facing camera with the same treatment as the rear camera. Both feature 13-megapixel sensors, and are both accompanied by dual-LED flash. To put the Desire Eye's purported price in perspective, the  HTC One (M8 Eye) was launched in October at Rs. 3...

the end of every year in recent memory, it seems, high-tech optimists have predicted the next year as the one when robots will finally lift from our shoulders the burden of dreary domestic tasks. Think washing floors, scrubbing the grill, cutting the lawn, watering plants, changing cat litter, vacuuming the carpet - and, for good measure, pacifying the baby and entertaining the older children. That was certainly the case at the close of 2013, said Dan Kara, a robotics analyst with ABI Research. "This was supposed to be the year where everything was going to be different," Kara said. "Again." And while that home-robotics revolution didn't exactly come to fruition this year, Kara said a handful of interesting robotic debuts in 2014 brought consumers one step closer to the chore-free home of the future. That sentiment was echoed by two others who closely follow the consumer robotics industry: Erico Guizzo, editor of the Automaton blog...
