A system and method for using asynchronous changes to memory to detect malware is disclosed. The technology initially receives a memory buffer location to be evaluated, the memory buffer location possibly having at least a portion of malware therein. The technology then performs a plurality of double fetches to the memory buffer location. The technology additionally compares a plurality of responses to the plurality of double fetches, wherein a plurality of similar responses to the plurality of double fetches indicates the portion of malware is not present and wherein at least two distinct responses to the plurality of double fetches indicates the portion of malware is present.

Multi-dimensional gesture input to a computing device can be improved by providing a mechanism to lock or reduce the effects of motion in unintended directions. In one example, a user can navigate in two dimensions, then provide a selection action through motion in a third dimension. If a computing device analyzing the gesture is able to detect the selection action, the device can limit motion outside the corresponding third dimension in order to ensure that the proper selection action is performed. Various thresholds, values, or motions can be used to limit motion in one or more axes for any appropriate purpose as discussed herein.
