  • Witty Worm Still Spreading - A new worm that exploits a hole in some of Internet Security Systems' intrusion protection products seems to be dying down after affecting thousands of IP addresses since Saturday. The so-called Witty worm, affecting some versions of ISS' BlackIce and RealSecure intrusion protection products, is "highly malicious" because it slowly destroys the system it infects, according to an alert from Lurhq, a managed security provider. "Rather than simply executing a 'format C:' or similar destructive command, the worm slowly corrupts the file system while it continues to spread," Lurhq's alert says. Another article on Witty can be found here.
  • EU said to OK massive fine for Microsoft - European Union states on Monday backed a proposal to fine Microsoft a record $613.5 million (497 million euros) for abusing its dominance of PC operating systems, an EU member state source said.
  • Swiss Army Knife Goes High-Tech - Swiss Army Knives are famous for packing just about any tool imaginable--including scissors, corkscrews, and pens--into a distinctive red pocket knife. Now you can add flash memory drive to the list. Swissbit, of Bronschhofen, Switzerland, will introduce in May four versions of the Victorinox Swiss Army Knife: two with a 64MB flash drive and two with a 128MB flash drive. The knives will be available in a travel-safe version that includes a red LED and a ballpoint pen, as well as an extended version that packs a red LED, ballpoint pen, a knife, a file with a screwdriver tip and a pair of scissors.
  • Brain-controlled video game made - Mind Balance uses a new wireless headset which picks up brain wave patterns through special electrodes. The player's brain is "tuned in" by concentrating on flashing images, and then they can control the game. The technology could be used in future computer games, and could also help scientists make special computers to help people who can't move well. To get their brain working with the game the player first focusses on two chequered boxes which flash at different speeds or frequencies. By looking at the boxes in turn a frog-like virtual character in the game, called Mawg, balances and walks across a tight-rope. If he starts falling to the left, the player has to concentrate on the box on the right. The game is not for sale, but it is a way for the researchers to learn how to develop the technology. But the researchers say gamers could be attaching headsets to their own heads in a few years' time.
  • Nvidia announces cell phone developer program - Nvidia has today announced that it is looking to bring 3D content to cell phones through the introduction of its developer program for hardware-accelerated 3D applications on cell phones and other handhelds. The Santa Clara-based company has also announced the immediate availability of its handheld software development kit (SDK).
  • Microsoft unveils online song shop - Microsoft said on Friday that the second half of the year will see the launch of its online music store, a long-expected entry into an increasingly crowded business dominated by Apple Computer's iTunes. The software giant this week began offering sneak peaks of the service to independent record labels at the South by Southwest trade show in Austin, Texas. Though Microsoft remains mum about specific details, this week's show signals the company's heightened ambitions to enter the world of online music sales with a bang.
  • Intel: Processors are not just about Gigahertz - Intel will launch with its upcoming Dothan processor a new numbering system. As the company confirmed, the new number won't give a general indication how fast the chip really is. Instead, it will be based on the feature set of the processor. Intel has to admit that AMD was right again. After following AMD in the track of its 64-bit strategy, Intel now plans to throw away the Gigahertz figure for its processor models and instead use an AMD like model number. Well, sort of.
  •  AAC Chosen for DVD-ROM Zone of DVD-Audio Discs - The DVD Forum has chosen AAC for the DVD-ROM zone of DVD-Audio discs – the inclusion of a low-resolution (lossy) track suitable for solid-state and portable devices has long been championed by DVD-Audio figureheads such as Dolby’s John Kellogg as a way of enhancing the value of the format to all listeners, not just those interested in its high-resolution potential. The selection of AAC came after a number of competing formats were proposed; they included MP3, ATRAC and Microsoft’s WMA. Additional formats, such as Vorbis Ogg for example, were not put forward for consideration.
  • New DVD burners double capacity - Sony Electronics says it will be shipping drives in about two months that accept blank DVDs with two data layers. Philips Electronics will start selling a similar drive in Europe in April, but is not saying when it will be available in the United States. The write-once discs can store up to 8.5 gigabytes of data, or about 4 hours of DVD-quality movies, twice the capacity of regular blank DVDs. This means capacities for computer-burned DVDs are catching up with prerecorded movie DVDs, many of which are already dual-layer.
  • Poweroid 1204 silent PC review - The silent operation has been achieved using some very unique construction methods, as even the sides of the case act as large heatsinks. Internally the design is also very different, and Zalman has fitted a custom-made fan-less power supply. But the most impressive aspect of the TNN 500A is the heatpipe configuration used to cool the processor and graphics card.
  • Intel's Pentium 4 3.4GHz processors - Many of you reading this review are gamers, and I will make things simple for you guys. If you want to play games on your PC, the Athlon 64 is the best choice right now. The benchmarks are darn near unanimous on this point, so I see no reason to mince words. The Pentium 4 3.4GHz and 3.4'E' GHz both list for $417, exactly the same price as the Athlon 64 3400+. Heck, I'd urge you to consider a lower end processor, like the Athlon 64 3000+, and spend the extra cash on a better graphics card instead. If you're into other things, well, the picture gets complicated quickly. The Pentium 4 performs nicely in commercial 3D rendering applications and media encoding.
  • NV40 16x1 pipeline? - This is the real deal or can we call it the fake deal. Nvidias upcoming chip, the NV40, has been going back and forth, and when I say back and forth, Im talking about the actual pipelines. A heap of people stated it will use 8x2 (8 pipelines and 2 textures per pass) others say it will use 16x1 (16 pipelines and 1 texture per pass). Both have their advantages and disadvantages. DataFuse.net has posted an article about pipelines to teach the novice user some basics, the guide is overhere.
  • Will Rock unofficial Gigabyte OEM patch v1.2 - There is a new but unofficial patch for Will Rock, upgrading the OEM edition of Saber Interactive's fast-paced first-person shooter that came bundled with Gigabyte ATI video cards to version 1.2. That edition couldn't be updated with the regular patches.

  • McAfee AVERT Stinger 2.1.6 - Stinger is a stand-alone utility used to detect and remove specific viruses. It is not a substitute for full anti-virus protection, but rather a tool to assist administrators and users when dealing with an infected system. Stinger utilizes next generation scan engine technology, including process scanning, digitally signed DAT files, and scan performance optimizations.
  • Forceware 64Bit 57.30 & nForce 64Bit 4.34a Drivers -  Nvidia have released a new Forceware 64Bit 57.30 & nForce 64Bit 4.34a Drivers (thanks Blooduk). There's also latest 64-bit Windows IDE driver (login with the support button at the bottom now you can goto your chipset kategory and leech BIOS/driver) for the SiI3x12 SATA Controller chip version 1105.

WINDOWS is the os for the computer and should beable to put whatever they want into it ,. if not thos dev's should make there own OS with whatever they want ,.,. its just all about money ,.

Tomposted - Mar, 23 2004 - 02:56
exactly.. pisses me off. it's microsofts OS and if you don't like it go get Linux. If I were Bill Gates, I'd say F U, period. RealPlayer, that stuff sucks ass, if I ever have to watch a movie and it's RealPlayer, I wont watch it. RealPlayer always sucked and continues to suck. Also, RealPlayer has spyware and lots of hidden system resource files.. RealPlayer sucks. MS should be able to put whatever the hell they want and to all you bitches who like to criticize MS, stfu and go get another OS if you don't like it. Nothing like being rich and successful with your product and then having a bunch of dumb ass lawyers and governments tell you how to package your own product. What's this world coming to. Maybe the government should look into getting american car makers to put some quality into their shit cars rather than rip people off. Imagine if there was no limit to imports, you think people would be driving american cars..pfff.. ya..exactly.

oh here we go with the marketing crap again.. Ok gamers go get a 64 bit cpu, well what i'd like to say to that dickhead is F U. Do a review, not a marketing pitch. I'll buy a 64bit cpu when i feel like it. All the games i play now and into the future will run just fine on my PC, thank you. That's what i been saying, these cheap ass review sites don't do anything but push products. Very little integrity. And I'm not talking ggmania, this site rocks, not HX fault there are stupid ass reviewers out there. He's just giving us the news. Even if the news comes from second rate highschool dropouts who overuse the same website templates.

Tom said " If I were Bill Gates, I'd say F U, period.". Well I am me, and i did say that ...under my breath. Tom, too bad your email address isn't valid because I'd hire you instantly. I like you. I like how you talk. The EU just sues me because they think i have money to burn. But i will have my revenge -- the EU won't get Longhorn for months later, and let's just say the EU's Windows Update Servers won't be updating as regularly. ;-) Anyone else here want sue me for some easy money?

fx5900posted - Mar, 23 2004 - 14:38
What's this crap - Intel admited that AMD got it right?!?!?! Intel followed AMD to 64bit??? How blindly AMD-pro is this BS... total BS. Who has the CPU marketshare here???? Can't you lamers do your own research - 64bit does NOT NECESSARILY TRANSLATE INTO HIGHER PERFORMANCE!!!! go out and do a degree in computer science to find out for yourself.

Tomposted - Mar, 23 2004 - 18:36
fx5900, it doesn't have to be truth, it just has to deceive people to go out and upgrade for no reason. As I said, the review sites of today are nothing but salesman pushing products. You got nVnews pushing nvidia products throwing reviews and reviews in your face, typically from same sites, you got Rage3D doing same thing for ATI.. The only sites i trust now really are Toms Hardware and I didn't used to. I mean what value is there intellectually to go to Rage3d or nVnews.. they are affiliated sites whether they admit it or not so naturally all they will post is pro-ati and pro-nvidia sites. Will you go to chrysler web site and take all their info and based on that alone buy their car? or will you get consumer reports and read that? @Bill Gates, my address is valid actually. And you should know Bill Gates since it's been there since day 1 on hotmail, same way my ICQ # is within the first 2 million accounts created. Cheers!

p.s. I'd love to work for Microsoft.

::posted - Mar, 23 2004 - 21:46
in a world without walls and fences, why in the world would we need gates and windows lol..

Bill Gatesposted - Mar, 24 2004 - 04:46
Tom, you should work in my marketing department. You can argue with the best (and worst) of them. However, i feel that nvidia would only try to steal your talents. Send in a resume and we'll see how you go. -Bill
