SECURITY...
- Microsoft to add "black box" to Windows - In a move that could
rankle privacy advocates, Microsoft said Monday that it is adding the PC
equivalent of a flight data recorder to the next version of Windows, in an
effort to better understand and prevent computer crashes. The tool will build
on the existing Watson error-reporting tool in Windows but
will provide Microsoft with much deeper information, including what programs
were running at the time of the error and even the contents of documents
that were being created. Businesses will also choose whether they want their
own technology managers to receive such data when an employee's machine
crashes.
- Microsoft delays most of its NGSCB security plan -
Microsoft has postponed most of its Next-Generation Secure Computing Base
(NGSCB) security plan, company officials confirmed. Only a sliver of it will
appear in the next version of Windows, code-named Longhorn, due out late next
year
- Highly critical flaw reported for Netscape software -
An unpatched flaw in some versions of the Netscape browser could let an
attacker into vulnerable systems, security company Secunia has warned. The
vulnerability is "highly critical," according to an advisory released by the
Danish company late Tuesday. Version 6.2.3 and 7.2 of Netscape are affected
and other versions may also be susceptible, the company said.
The flaw could allow a hacker to launch a buffer overflow attack, which could
crash the browser or enable the attacker to execute code on the compromised
system. A patch has not been created, according to Secunia.
- Adobe Issues Fix for Reader, Acrobat Flaw - Adobe Systems Inc.
earlier this month sneaked out
a fix for the vulnerability and recommended that users upgrade to versions
7.0.1 of the freely available programs. Hyperdose Security, the company
credited with finding and reporting the bug, said an attacker could target the
"Safe for Scripting" method in the Adobe programs to direct unsuspecting users
to a malicious Web site.
- Yager Buffer Overflow (Exploit) - A vulnerability in Yager allows
remote attackers to cause the program to overflow an internal buffer and in
turn cause it to execute arbitrary code.
The following exploit can be used to test your Yager installation for the
mentioned vulnerability
- Most computer hacking an 'inside job' -
The vast majority
of computer hacking is done by current and former employees, according to
the Metropolitan Police. In a panel session at this year's InfoSecurity Europe
conference, Detective Inspector Chris Simpson of the Metropolitan Police
Computer Crime Unit told delegates that one of the first steps in any
investigation is to check employee details.
OFFTOPIC...
- Hacker deletes own hard drive - A chat channel spat ended when
a wannabe
hacker was duped into deleting his own hard drive (log)
The 26 year-old German claimed he was the baddest hacker in town and
threatened to attack a moderator on #stopHipHop's RC Channel because he
thought he'd been thrown out. He demanded the moderator cough up his IP
address and prepare to be hacked. The moderator sent back a bunch of numbers
and there then followed a period in which the moderator assumes all manner of
hack tools were unleashed at the IP address. Finally the hacker declared
success."I can see your E: drive disappearing, he gloated, "D: is down 45
percent!" he cried, before disappearing into the ether. ROFL! :)

- Banderas Joins Lopez in Bordertown - Antonio Banderas (The Legend
of Zorro) is set to join Jennifer Lopez
in the independent thriller Bordertown, says The Hollywood Reporter. Set
on the U.S.-Mexico border, the film centers on a journalist who investigates a
series of murders that take place in the vicinity of some U.S.-owned factories
in the region.
- More Join Silent Hill Adaptation - Sean Bean, Laurie Holden,
Deborah Kara Unger, Kim Coates and Tanya Allen have
joined the cast of Christophe Gans' horror film Silent Hill, which started
shooting in Toronto on Monday with Radha Mitchell in the lead role.
TECHNOLOGY...
- WinHEC 2005 Coverage - WinHEC (Windows Hardware Engineering
Conference) 2005 has now begun and
Microsoft have given the Longhorn preview build to attendees today ~
Live keynote /
videoclips /
Neowin's blog : "Joe confirmed that for current systems Longhorn will
not be a problem. 256MB RAM min and 512MB RAM recommended is likely to be the
specification model alongside a 1GHZ processor. Any driver level improvements
and even XP drivers themselves will be supported in Longhorn, meaning,
Longhorn will support legacy XP drivers. Currently 5048 does not support this
but this will be fixed by beta 1." More Longhorn bits can be found
here. /

necessary (due to legal action / threats). The owner of the site is asking for
donations to help pay for the pending legal settlement: "Sorry, but TVTorrents
is down. No, I will not return. Sorry for any hassles. Thanks for all the
memories and good times we had together in tvtorrents. Again, sorry for having
to leave, but it became necessary. If you can donate to help with the pending
settlement, please do so!"
- Corel Unveils WordPerfect E-Mail Client -
Corel plans to announce a small business version of its WordPerfect Office 12
suite that includes
a new WordPerfect Mail e-mail client. The e-mail client is based on
Bloomba, which was distributed by San Mateo, California-based Stata Labs until
that company was acquired by Yahoo last October. Bloomba was lauded by
reviewers as being efficient and easy to use, but it lacked a high profile.
Yahoo discontinued distribution of Bloomba after it bought Stata Labs.

- Starforce launches new universal software protection platform

- NEC signs up to provide
Xbox 360 eDRAM - Japanese semiconductor giant
NEC has announced that it has been tapped to provide embedded DRAM chips
for Microsoft's next-generation Xbox console, which will be used as part of
the graphics solution in the system.
HARDWARE...
- Sony introduces new DRU/DRX 800 series DVD-burners; DVD-R DL support -
The internal DRU-800A and external DRX-800UL are amongst the first drives
to support both DVD+R DL and DVD-R DL (dual layer) disc recording, widening
the media choice for consumers and ensuring playback compatibility with the
majority of DVD-ROM drives and DVD players.
- AMD Turion 64 -
The Turion64's low power consumption and heat production attributes
finally give AMD a viable competitor to Intel's Pentium-M processor, which has
dominated the mobile arena with its efficient architecture. Battery life
between Turion64 and Pentium-M systems should be very similar, assuming both
mobile systems are equipped with similar hardware and batteries. While the
Pentium-M delivers better performance per clock over the Turion64, the
Turion64 does have some fairly significant features which should not be
overlooked. The Turion64 has an integrated memory controller, for smoother
application performance, in addition to DDR-400 memory support (opposed to
DDR-333). The Turion64 also has the ability to execute 64-bit code, whereas
the Pentium-M does not.
- Opteron 275 Dual Core - If you do fit the profile of a user who can
benefit from 4P power, however,
dual
Opteron may offer absolutely unbeatable performance in a much lower price
bracket than ever existed before. Its not just the CPU's that are exciting
here--its the entire performance you can wrap around them.
- ABIT AX8 VIA KT890 Mainboard -
ABIT has taken VIA's K8T890 core-logic and engineered a stable, fast, and
inexpensive motherboard that carries a reasonable feature-set. Presentation,
as usual, is excellent, and enthusiast-orientated options are up to ABIT's
usual standards. L79 buys you a decent introduction to S939, and performance,
coupled with any compatible CPU, is always going to be impressive, especially
so in gaming.
- MSI P4N Diamond motherboard - T-Break has posted
a
review of the MSI P4N Diamond motherboard.
- PowerColor RADEON X800 XL
AGP -
The X800 XL AGP delivers excellent performance for these consumers. Its 16
pixel pipeline architecture and 400MHz clock speed deliver fill rates superior
to GeForce 6800 GT, and is supplanted by a robust memory subsystem. In our
performance results, the two cards delivered very competitive performance with
one another, with both cards winning their fair share of benchmarks.
- S3
GammaChrome S18 Pro Video Card - If you are looking for a
high-performance part in
the S3 GammaChrome, you'll be disappointed. Fortunately, the GammaChrome
is not targeted to this market. With a MSRP of under $100, the competition to
the GammaChrome S18 Pro is the 6200 with Turbo Cache and the X300 video card
from ATI.
- High-Capacity Hard Drive Roundup - ExtremeTech takes a
look at three
high capacity desktop drives: the 250GB Western Digital WD2500SD, 300GB
Maxtor DiamondMax 10, and a 400GB Seagate 7200.8.
- Ultra X-Connect 500
Watt PSU -
This PSU bridges the gap between looks, functionality and performance.
-
The 20" LCD Shootout: Dell versus Apple - The Apple Cinema 20" display
is also an incredible unit. In fact, if both monitors cost the same, it would
be very difficult to choose either display;
Apple clearly has the aesthetic edge over its Dell counterpart and cable
management is second to none. The Cinema display had no problem producing
extraordinary results in all of our benchmarks. However, we did look at two
displays today and although the Apple Cinema display brings new features to
the display like Firewire 400 pass through, Dell is the 800lbs gorilla when it
comes to displays.
- ViewSonic VX924 19-inch 4ms TFT LCD - There you have it,
the fastest monitor to hit the market. It is unbelievable that within six
months of the 8ms LCD debut, ViewSonic has not only halved the typical
response time, but has achieved the same speeds for GTG timing as well. The
VX924 is set to be extremely fast, this we have no doubt.
GUIDES...
- NCQ / TCQ & nForce 4 Data Corruption - The Fix - AMDGamer has
posted an interesting article on problems with NCQ/TCQ and nForce4 -
check it out.
- Windows XP 64-bit, a virtual minefield? - If that
isn't a virtual minefield I don't know what is.
You risk to go from a perfectly working system running 32-bit Windows XP, to a
non working 64-bit Windows XP and lose your 32-bit Windows XP product key
in the process without the ability to go back. To further frustrate end users
Microsoft makes very clear that the installation of Windows XP 64-bit will
void any support with your PC manufacturer. One free support call will be
provided by Microsoft for any installation-related issues whereas additional
calls to Microsoft support will be available on a pay-per-incident basis. If
that doesn't convince you to steer clear of Windows XP 64-bit for now you must
either be really foolhardy or be feeling exceptionally lucky today,
