Abstract: A method for searching for icons relating to applications in an electronic device is computer-implemented. When a currently displayed interface of the electronic device is an application icon interface including a plurality of icons, an input touch is determined to be either an already-recorded user-defined touch or a system-defined touch. System-defined touches have automatic consequences. A relationship table is searched to find one or more icons related to the input touch when the input touch is determined to be a previously-recorded user-defined touch. A window is displayed to simultaneously show one or more found icons on the touch screen for the convenience of the user, avoiding any page-up or page-down operation.

Abstract: An account borrowing system includes at least one client operated by a first user and a second user and a server. The processor includes a communication module, to receive an account borrowing request submitted by the first user using the at least one client. A forwarding module forwards the account borrowing request to the second user using the at least one client. A linking module obtains the account information of the second user from a storage unit and generate a super link address for accessing a login page of the account of the second user when the second user approves the account borrowing request. In addition, a communication module transmits the supper link address to the first user using the at least one client.

Abstract: An electronic device includes an operating system to determine hardware modules being used when an application of the electronic device is run. The electronic device stores a table recording hardware modules used by the running of each application obtained from a creditable service provider. The electronic device obtains the hardware modules being used by the operating system when an application is running, determines whether all the hardware modules being used are the hardware modules corresponding to the running application in the table if the running application is recorded in the table, and determines that the running application is a malicious application if not all of the hardware modules being used are the hardware modules corresponding to the running application in the table. The electronic device executes a safeguard operation to protect the electronic device when the running application is a malicious application. A related method is also provided.
