The Indian Idol 4 phone (LG KP199)
It’s been a while since I reviewed a budget mobile, but considering all the hyped handsets that made it across my table in the last couple of months there wasn’t much time to do so. Naturally I was quite happy to kick back and get back to basics with the LG KP119 handset that LG claims will deliver up to 10 hours of talk time. But the battery is just one aspect albeit a major one. However, here’s how it fared with respect to all others as well.
Form Factor
The KP119 is a simple looking handset that still manages to boast of a certain stylish flare with a shiny chrome border in front. The keypad is large and easy to use and I’ve always been a fan of the five way nav-pad. It has a 1.7-inch TFT LCD with a 128 x 160 pixel resolution and 256k colors which is clearly visible in direct sunlight.
It’s not a slim phone although it’s size and shape doesn’t make a totally bulky device either. The volume/zoom control keys are located on one side above the hot-swap microSD card slot. On the opposite side is a proprietary one-slot-for-all port – USB (2.0), handsfree and charger. On the same side, at the bottom is a dedicated camera key for the VGA (640 x 480) camera that’s located at the back.
The KP199’s 16.5mm depth is not really something I considered as the handset is quite sleek on the whole and has that certain feel-good-factor about it.
Features and Performance
Interface
Using LG’s proprietary UI, the KP199 has quite a neatly designed fashion for navigation. However there’s just one peculiarity that I encountered that really threw me. The messaging option was rather a pain as it required an unusual amount of button presses to send a single message. Where most handsets would require a maximum of 3-4 entries (not counting alphabet search) the KP199 required 9. Too many unnecessary settings in between. You can get used to it of course, but having to is what makes it a wee bit of downer in this sense.
On the plus side the KP199 employs a Talking phone feature that will read out numbers when dialing, call out the number for incoming calls and can also be set to call out the time every hour. What’s rather redundant is the fact it doesn’t seem to voice out the incoming callers name but just the number. What’s the point in that if I’m not gifted with a good enough memory to remember all the numbers stored in my contacts. Most other handsets with this feature call out the name and not the number as it’s a whole lot easier to identify the caller.
Media
When it comes to the KP199’s audio quality I was quite satisfied. I can’t say it was great but it was good enough. The earphones on the handsfree were not my cup of tea personally, but not altogether uncomfortable according to a quick poll I took. The music player comes with 8 EQ presets which do help enhance the audio experience a little. Music quality was not too bad – the bass was just a little bit off but the highs could have been toned down a tad. The decibel level was good enough to prevent me from going a ‘koo-koo’ in the train with all the noise of bells and the regular bunch of arrogantly loud commuters. It reads MP3, eAAC+, WMA and WMV, AMR file formats.

Computer Virus
What is a computer virus?
A computer virus is a small software program that spreads from one computer to another computer and that interferes with computer operation. A computer virus may corrupt or delete data on a computer, use an e-mail program to spread the virus to other computers, or even delete everything on the hard disk.
Computer viruses are most easily spread by attachments in e-mail messages or by instant messaging messages. Therefore, you must never open an e-mail attachment unless you know who sent the message or unless you are expecting the e-mail attachment. Computer viruses can be disguised as attachments of funny images, greeting cards, or audio and video files. Computer viruses also spread by using downloads on the Internet. Computer viruses can be hidden in pirated software or in other files or programs that you may download.
Symptoms of a computer virusIf you suspect or confirm that your computer is infected with a computer virus, obtain the current antivirus software. The following are some primary indicators that a computer may be infected: The computer runs slower than usual.The computer stops responding, or it locks up frequently.The computer crashes, and then it restarts every few minutes.The computer restarts on its own. Additionally, the computer does not run as usual.Applications on the computer do not work correctly.Disks or disk drives are inaccessible.You cannot print items correctly.You see unusual error messages.You see distorted menus and dialog boxes.There is a double extension on an attachment that you recently opened, such as a .jpg, .vbs, .gif, or .exe. extension.An antivirus program is disabled for no reason. Additionally, the antivirus program cannot be restarted.An antivirus program cannot be installed on the computer, or the antivirus program will not run.New icons appear on the desktop that you did not put there, or the icons are not associated with any recently installed programs.Strange sounds or music plays from the speakers unexpectedly.A program disappears from the computer even though you did not intentionally remove the program.The computer runs slower than usual.The computer stops responding, or it locks up frequently.The computer crashes, and then it restarts every few minutes.The computer restarts on its own.

However, these signs may also be caused by hardware or software problems that have nothing to do with a computer virus. Unless you run the Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool, and then you install industry-standard, up-to-date antivirus software on your computer, you cannot be certain whether a computer is infected with a computer virus or not.
Symptoms of worms and trojan horse viruses in e-mail messages
When a computer virus infects e-mail messages or infects other files on a computer, you may notice the following symptoms: The infected file may make copies of itself. This behavior may use up all the free space on the hard disk.A copy of the infected file may be sent to all the addresses in an e-mail address list.The computer virus may reformat the hard disk. This behavior will delete files and programs.The computer virus may install hidden programs, such as pirated software. This pirated software may then be distributed and sold from the computer.The computer virus may reduce security. This could enable intruders to remotely access the computer or the network.You receive an e-mail message that has a strange attachment. When you open the attachment, dialog boxes appear, or a sudden degradation in system performance occurs.Someone tells you that they have recently received e-mail messages from you that contained attached files that you did not send. The files that are attached to the e-mail messages have extensions such as .exe, .bat, .scr, and .vbs extensions.
Symptoms that may be the result of ordinary Windows functionsA computer virus infection may cause the following problems: Windows does not start even though you have not made any system changes or even though you have not installed or removed any programs.There is frequent modem activity. If you have an external modem, you may notice the lights blinking frequently when the modem is not being used. You may be unknowingly supplying pirated software.Windows does not start because certain important system files are missing. Additionally, you receive an error message that lists the missing files.The computer sometimes starts as expected. However, at other times, the computer stops responding before the desktop icons and the taskbar appear.The computer runs very slowly. Additionally, the computer takes longer than expected to start.You receive out-of-memory error messages even though the computer has sufficient RAM.New programs are installed incorrectly.Windows spontaneously restarts unexpectedly.Programs that used to run stop responding frequently. Even if you remove and reinstall the programs, the issue continues to occur.A disk utility such as Scandisk reports multiple serious disk errors.A partition disappears.The computer always stops responding when you try to use Microsoft Office products.You cannot start Windows Task Manager.Antivirus software indicates that a computer virus is present.Windows does not start even though you have not made any system changes or even though you have not installed or removed any programs.There is frequent modem activity. If you have an external modem, you may notice the lights blinking frequently when the modem is not being used.
