Are you looking for a fix on the WordPress error: “Your attempt to edit/save this page/post: [post/page title] has failed. Please try again.”? If you are, you are on the right page!

Yesterday, my WordPress for this blog went problematic after the server reboot at my web host’s end. The first problem I encountered was the corruption of the table wp_options of my WordPress database which resulted to WordPress asking me to reinstall the blog. I fixed it using the Repair DB functions of cPanel.

The next problem I saw was that I can’t post or edit any page. It keeps on dumping “Your attempt to edit this post [post title] has failed. Please try again.” I tried searching for the problem in the Internet and learned that it is caused by the WordPress autosave function.

To fix it, you should have access to your WordPress blog from cPanel file manager or FTP. Browse to [blog_root]/wp-admin/ and locate the file post-new.php. After locating the file, edit it directly thru your File Manger (cPanel) or download it thru FTP. Edit the file using your favorite text editor such as NotePad if you downloaded it thru FTP. (more…)

Disk Knight is a beneficial virus I have encountered countless times. It’s annoying; especially its way of silent multiplication. It installs itself to the host computer; then infects every drive (usually the flash drives) the host computer gets direct contact to.

I’ve read several methods online on how to remove this nasty beneficial virus. One of the easiest method I found was to download a batch file by Islam Adel; execute it to your computer and poof, no more Disk Knight.

Here’s the file: Disk Knight Remover.

Are you looking for tools to remove the Funny UST Scandal virus? Then, you are on the right track.

Early this afternoon, I was trying to compile an assembly program coded by me when it failed. I tried other assembly programs; the same thing happened. I was reconfiguring my IDE’s settings when I started to suspect my firewall of blocking the assembler. I turned off my firewall and poof, it worked.

AFTER the incident, I forgot to reactivate my firewall. I was clueless that something was happening inside our PC until…

I was conversing with a friend with Yahoo Messenger. I was horrified ’cause my mouse started to move in different directions; and it was typing something on my status bar. It was sending a message to all of my friends.

And it was the Funny UST Scandal.

If you’re looking for a fix, there’s this Visual Basic Application made by a Filipino. It reverts all the infections made by the virus; making your computer clean of traces of the nasty virus.

You can download the fix here.

Good luck.
