  • Bungie Speaks On Halo 2 Leak - A moderator on the official Halo 2 forums posted some speculations and warnings about the Halo 2 leak. To the question where the leak originated he answered "is almost positively the work of some jerk in the manufacturing plant who pocketed the game".
  • Four eastern Europeans charged over phishing scam - The Financial Times reports that two men and two women from Russia, Estonia and Ukraine were allegedly part of a gang that duped customers into giving them their banking details before stealing money from their accounts. If successful, the case will be something of a coup for the UK's National High-Tech Crime Unit, which has been collaborating with foreign authorities to clamp down on internet-based crime.
  • High Court in London orders ISP's to hand over pirates ID's - The High Court in London has ordered ISPs to hand over the names and addresses of 28 alleged music pirates to Britain's trade body for the recording industry. The British Phonographic Industry Ltd., or BPI, Friday welcomed the court order by Justice William Blackburne as the first step to suing people it accuses of promoting the illegal downloading of copyrighted music.The ruling is a victory for both the BPI and its umbrella organization, the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry, IFPI, which announced earlier this month that its affiliates were filing a total of 459 lawsuits against alleged Internet pirates in Britain, France, Germany, Denmark, Italy and Austria.
  • Norton AntiVirus 2004 Script Blocking Failure - If you ever *do* run a hazardous script in on a box running NAV2004 don't count on Script Blocking to cover your butt. Symantec should be publicly flogged for trying to sell this inferior AV software to home users, especially knowing they have a decently workable AV product in their Enterprise line.
  • Sender ID Finds New Life - Internet Light and Power says it will become one of the first ISPs to deploy Microsoft Corp.'s anticipated Sender ID technology in daily operations.  Sender ID will become part of the Toronto-based company's iPermitMail virtual e-mail firewall, which ILAP developed as a means of combating e-mail fraud.
  • Microsoft Issues Patch for SP2 - Microsoft has issued a patch for a compatibility problem between the recent Windows XP Service Pack 2 and an advertising application run on many users' machines. The service pack was causing system crashes due to a conflict with a hidden app from Total Velocity Software, called TV Media.
  • Google targets Microsoft with search tool - Google has rolled out a preliminary version of its new desktop search tool, making the first move against its major competitors in the race to provide tools for finding information buried in computer hard drives.
  • Off-topic: Endangered species: US programmers - Say goodbye to the American software programmer. Once the symbols of hope as the nation shifted from manufacturing to service jobs, programmers today are an endangered species. They face a challenge similar to that which shrank the ranks of steelworkers and autoworkers a quarter century ago: competition from foreigners. Some experts think they'll become extinct within the next few years, forced into unemployment or new careers by a combination of offshoring of their work to India and other low-wage countries and the arrival of skilled immigrants taking their jobs.
  • Off-topic: Hydrogen-powered cars creep forward - Fuel-cell-powered cars moved another step closer yesterday with the announcement that a group of British scientists have developed a material that can safely store and release hydrogen. Although fuel cell technology is reasonably well developed, scientists have struggled to find a way of storing enough hydrogen fuel to make them viable alternatives to petrol engines. However, the breakthrough that the Liverpool and Newcastle team has made could change that. It has developed a nanoporous material into which they can load highly pressurised hydrogen. However, once the gas is stored in the pores - nanometres across - its pressure is lowered considerably.
  • Off-topic: New propulsion concept could make 90-day Mars round trip possible - Mag-beam is one of 12 proposals that this month began receiving support from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Institute for Advanced Concepts. Each gets $75,000 for a six-month study to validate the concept and identify challenges in developing it. Projects that make it through that phase are eligible for as much as $400,000 more over two years.  Under the mag-beam concept, a space-based station would generate a stream of magnetized ions that would interact with a magnetic sail on a spacecraft and propel it through the solar system at high speeds that increase with the size of the plasma beam. Winglee estimates that a control nozzle 32 meters wide would generate a plasma beam capable of propelling a spacecraft at 11.7 kilometers per second. That translates to more than 26,000 miles an hour or more than 625,000 miles a day.
  • PSP will support MP3 - Besides MP3, the portable device can accept JPEG and of course Sony's ATREC3plus audio format. Browsing and playing back the files will be done with the Cross Media Bar (XMB), a interface which was also used in Sony´s PSX system ( a hybrid of a DVD recorder and the PS2 sold only in Japan).
  • Dell unveils holiday lineup, including new plasma TVs - Dell Inc. took the wraps off its holiday lineup on Thursday, showing new printers, plasma televisions and music players that will soon be available through its Web site.
  • AMD preps high-performance chips for desktops - The chipmaker will unveil its Athlon 64 FX-55 chip next week, in an effort to bump up the performance of game desktops and other high-end PCs in time for the holiday season. The chip is expected to be unveiled on Tuesday, along with the AMD Athlon 64 4000+, the company's highest-performance processor for mainstream desktops.
  • Intel: It will be hard for AMD to follow us - The day of Intel's earning results, CEO Craig Barrett delivered an up-beat report to all the firm's employees, via a Webcast and through its internal organ Circuit News. Barrett told the staff that Intel has a "plan and product roadmaps" which will allow the company to be successful despite "several highly publicised setbacks" in the recent months. As reported yesterday, Intel will not make the 4-gigahertz version of its Pentium 4 PC processor. Intel will release another chip that has fewer gigahertz.
  • Sharp To Ship New HD-equipped Zaurus In Japan - The SL-C3000 includes a 4GB hard drive, a 416MHz Intel XScale PXA270 CPU and 64MB of RAM. All of that in a package weighing 298g!
  • Seagate's Savvio 2.5" SCSI hard drive review - Savvio drives are a little less than 70% smaller than 3.5" disks by volume and less than a third of their weight. To put that in perspective, a single Savvio is roughly the size of a deck of cards—you need three Savvios to approach the volume of one 3.5" hard drive.
