I ran across some files on a public share. The extension is .tabufa. There is concern this is some sort of hack. Based on my knowledge of that business unit and some of the file names, I suspect these files have something to do with Tableau. Most of them are like filename.xlsm.tabufa, but one is filename.lnk.tabufa.
Another likely scenario is someone did a batch rename to tack .tabufa to the end of all file names in that folder, so this may be a wild goose chase.
I have found nothing about this extension by using a search engine.
One other clue: There is a file named how_to_back_files.html in the same folder. The user who identified the file extension (Right, it wasn't me. I don't have access to that folder.) verified that this file contains the ransom note.

These are files that have been encrypted by GlobeImposter 2.0 Ransomware. See this link.

Probably not Tableau. I would be more inclined to lean on the .xlsm portion which would indicate that it is a Macro Enabled Excel file. I'm guessing a Macro caused/created the custom extension either on purpose or on accident.
To verify, you can change the the extension to .xml. Open with a text editor and if it is Tableau it will start with something similar to the following:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?>
<!-- build 20182.18.0627.2230 -->
<workbook original-version='10.5' source-build='2018.2.0 (20182.18.0627.2230)'
source-platform='mac' version='18.1'

As I'm using a windows 7.We are configured public ip to access our apache server. After a Remote desktop connection via Anydesk Ended. All the Files in System are encrypted with .deep extension. Every Folder Contains Text files that has id and mrdeep#protonmail.com and bitcoin donate information and also system already has K7 AntiSecurity(Licensed but about to end).But after affected, K7 automatically vanished. Hence can anyone help me to recover those files and also guide me to escape from such viruses in future..
it looks that this is Scarab ransomware new version. Scarab has decryption tool developed by Dr. Web. You should try that, it may work for this .deep extension or just use anti-malware tools, clean everything. Then maybe Data Recovery Pro will help with data decryption. Keep your anti-virus and anti-malware up-to-date so you can avoid this nasty virus. These most commonly come from infected spam email attachments. so clean that box more often and scan your system more frequently. Good luck!

I have an excel VBA project that uses ADODB and manipulates data in an ACCDB.
I know that you can store the path for the ACCDB in a cell of the excel sheet. However I would like to know: Is there another way to store the path rather than in the sheet?
I know that if I store it in a variable, when the program closes it releases the variable.
If you ask me why I want this, it's more because I want the code not being too dependent in the front-end of the excel, as some unskilled people will also use this project.
Perhaps there is a more professional or known way to store folder or file paths?
You can store it in a Custom Document Property.
Or in a Name using the Name Manager.
Or in a cell of a hidden Worksheet.

We used Adobe inDesign to design story books. We need both the PDF file as well as epub file. Since we all view in PDF during the process, the final clear product in PDF, when we export as epub file, it's huge. It all messed up the original design. What can we do?
Why did it happen?
I've worked on ONE project going from InDesign to ePub about two years ago - and you are right it is a mess. It didn't understand which local overrides to keep and practically every paragraph had style="localoverride1 localoverride2 substyle3 etc" in it. It was a mess to sort and clean up.
After that miserable experience we've found that it is better to view PDF and ePub as two separate products. Our workflow takes source XML and goes EITHER into InDesign OR through an XSLT to make an ePub. We no longer use InDesign to attempt to make ePubs - with an XSLT there is a LOT more control over the look and feel of the final product.
However if you are dead set on using InDesign - I've heard that it does fixed layout "epub" fairly well (basically it ends up being a bunch of images - it's not reflowable).

When I open a VBA-File directly with notepad or notepad++, I only see a bunch of weird characters.
How did I open a VBA-File:
Unzip a *.dotm file
There you'll find a file /word/*.bin
Unzip this *.bin file
There you have the VBA-Project Source Code
Now try to open/view it with your editor of choise
Do someone know a way to view the source code correctly? Using dll or replace characters, etc...
The .bin is itself a Zip file that contains OLE Structured Storage/BIFF documents that are
somewhat non-trivial to interact with.

If Word is available on the machine running your application you can use it's COM Automation features to export VBA Projects as plain-text files.

I currently have my MAMP htdocs folder within my Dropbox folder (so I can sync files for different workstations). I also have a client that isn't comfortable with having their files on Dropbox.
Anyone know if it's possible to exclude this one folder from Dropbox completely, even know it lives right there in the Dropbox folder? (Of course, moving the folder outside of Dropbox is easy enough, but then it's outside of my MAMP environment.)
Is it possible to set up an alias or something? Is there something really simple I'm missing here? Any direction would be greatly appreciated.
You could try using the Selective Sync feature of Dropbox
