PhoneGap is an open-source mobile development framework developed by Nitobi Software. It enables software programmers to build applications for mobile devices using JavaScript, HTML and CSS, instead of less-popular proprietary languages such as Objective-C. PhoneGap currently supports development for the iPhone, Palm WebOS, Google Android, Windows Mobile, Symbian OS and BlackBerry operating systems.
First developed at an iPhoneDevCamp event in San Francisco, PhoneGap went on to win the People's Choice Award at O'Reilly Media's 2009 Web 2.0 Conference.
The framework has been used to develop many apps, including one for Wine.com.
The framework has also been confirmed by apple to meet with its approval even with the new 4.0 developer license change.

"Nothing is Immune"
With PC Tools iAntiVirus™ you are protected against the most nefarious cyber-threats attempting to gain access to your Mac and personal information.
Once your computer has been infected, a virus or worm will usually attempt to spread itself to your friends, family and associates by accessing your email contacts and networked PCs. The infection may also allow hackers to access files on your Mac, use it to launch attacks against other computers and websites or to send mass SPAM email.
PC Tools iAntiVirus™ provides real-time protection and comprehensive system scanning to ensure your Mac remains safe and virus free.
Protection against Mac specific threats
The iAntiVirus™ database has been designed from the ground up to detect and remove Mac specific threats. This enables a high level of protection whilst keeping memory footprint and resource usage at a minimum. The iAntiVirus™ database is not cluttered with signatures for Windows specific threats which your Mac is immune against.
Simple to use
iAntiVirus™ has been designed with the user in mind. The user interface is purely functional, making it simple to scan for, remove and manage infections.

Features
|
A variety of scan options You may perform a variety of scan types using iAntiVirus, this allows you to strike a balance between the time taken to complete a scan, and its thoroughness. Real-time protection IntelliGuard protects your Mac against infections in real time. Whenever an infection is detected and blocked, an alert is displayed below the system menu bar. IntelliGuard automatically places detected infections in quarantine, works silently in the background and uses minimal system resources. Quarantine iAntiVirus quarantines all detected infections, allowing you to easily view and restore items in the case of a false positive (for example: when scanning with engine heuristics set to high). Automatic Smart Updates Frequent updates to detect and guard computers against new threats and viruses as well as provide enhancements to iAntiVirus are automatically installed and downloaded through the Smart Update function. Threat signatures are updated within hours of a high risk malware outbreak to protect you from the latest online threats. Low resource usage When in monitoring mode iAntiVirus has been designed to work silently in the background, threats are blocked and removed without any system impact, while only a small alert window is displayed to advise you that your Mac has been protected against an attack.

Traffic Squeezer is an Open-Source Project which does provides WAN Network Traffic Acceleration solution through a set of procedures on a Linux based network device released under GNU General Public License.
WAN/Internet Optimization techniques (source: wikipedia)
- Deduplication - eliminates the transfer of redundant data across the WAN by sending references instead of the actual data. By working at the byte level, benefits are achieved across IP applications.
- Compression - Relies on data patterns that can be represented more efficiently. Best suited for point to point leased lines.
- Caching/Proxy - Relies on human behavior, accessing the same data over and over. Best suited for point to point leased lines, but also viable for Internet Connections and VPN tunnels. Effective use of web caching typically sees a bandwidth reduction of 15-30% on WAN links.
- Protocol spoofing - Bundles multiple requests from chatty applications into one. Best suited for Point to Point WAN links.
- Traffic shaping - Controls data usage based on spotting specific patterns in the data and allowing or disallowing specific traffic. Best suited for both point to point leased lines and Internet connections. May be hard to keep current with ever expanding types of applications.
- Equalizing - Makes assumptions on what needs immediate priority based on the data usage. Excellent choice for wide open unregulated Internet connections and clogged VPN tunnels.
- Connection Limits - Prevents access gridlock in routers and access points due to denial of service or peer to peer. Best suited for wide open Internet access links , can also be used on WAN links.
- Simple Rate Limits - Prevents one user from getting more than a fixed amount of data. Best suited as a stop gap first effort for a remedying a congested Internet connection or WAN link.

Traffic Squeezer does WAN Acceleration with the technologies such as Traffic Compression, Traffic PDU Coalescing, Protocol Specific Acceleration (ex: TCP Acceleration Mechanisms), Quality of Service, etc.
