  • BT blocks 20,000 attempts a day to access child porn - Thousands of people are being stopped from accessing hardcore child pornography on the internet every day because of a new filtering system. British Telecom, which introduced the technology, said it was blocking more than 20,000 attempts to download paedophile websites each day.
  • DVD Pacific - Stolen Card Numbers? - A number of DVD Pacific users in Australia have recently (in the last week and a half) had fraudulent charges appear on their credit cards. Has anyone here had a similar experience? (thanks Tero Koiranen)
  • National Hi-Tech Crime Unit smashes online extortion racket - The UK's National Hi-Tech Crime Unit has worked with Russian authorities to smash a racket responsible for extorting thousands of pounds from online sport bookies. Three men were arrested in St Petersburg and south west Russia on Tuesday following months of collaboration between the NHTCU and Russia's Ministry of Internal Affairs computer crimes department. Bookies have been hit with denial of service (DOS) since October 2003, with cyber criminals bringing web sites down by bombarding servers with thousands of messages in a bid to extort money from them.
  • Cell phone glitch throws off GPS - Satellite-tracking features on some Motorola cell phones haven't been working for the last few days, and some people believe the culprit is a Y2K-like software bug.  Nextel Communications and Motorola said they are aware of what they describe as a "software issue" that affects the assisted global positioning satellite location services inside possibly hundreds of thousands of Motorola phones. A-GPS (Assisted Global Positioning System), as it's known, determines a location using a combination of software on the phone and information from satellites and the cell phone network.
  • Hotmail Storage upgrade - 2GB For Free & Pop3 Access - Microsoft have begun increasing free users accounts to 250MB storage and their paid subscribers to 2GB of storage. It appears you can get 2GB of space free by registering an @msn.com email address. MSN Premium accounts with @msn.com .NET Passport can use the following server: POP3: pop3.email.msn.com, SMTP: smtp.email.msn.com.
  • Autumn's the time for 512MB graphics - An Nvidia and ATI Autumn refresh will bring you 512MB of memory and we remember that ATI actually said something about delivering 512MB cards by the end of this year.
  • Prices of 19-inch LCD monitor panels to drop more than US$20 - Prices of 19-inch LCD monitor panels are expected to drop by more than US$20 next month, according to Taiwan-based LCD monitor maker Amtran Technology. Currently, 19-inch LCD monitor panels range in price from US$340 to US$370.
  • Toshiba to Introduce Quick-Start Multimedia Laptop - Japan's Toshiba Corp. is launching its first multimedia laptop with a much clearer display and quick-start video and TV functions to carve out a position in the promising field, a company official said on Wednesday. With the "Qosmio" line to be unveiled on Thursday, Toshiba seeks to benefit from expected growth in demand for multimedia computers that can play and digitally record TV programs, DVDs and other video and audio materials from the Internet.  The laptop will have a 15-inch LCD screen that is brighter and clearer than other LCD televisions, said Oscar Koenders, Toshiba's head of marketing of computer systems in Europe.
  • Intel's 90nm Pentium M 755 review - AnandTech takes an in-depth look at Dothan's latest incarnation, the Pentium M 755.
  • Gainward CoolFX 6800 Ultra / Connect3D X800XTPE review - The card is very expensive, water-cooling tends to be though so this is of no surprise to us and to be honest it’s not really a concern. Some people may say “I’m not paying L600 for a graphics card” but your not, your paying for the card and a water-cooling setup which can be further updated to include CPU cooling (Gainward also sell the CoolPC kit). If you were to buy a standard
    6800U and a decent water-cooling kit you’d be looking at a similar price, not guaranteed 450 mhz/1200mhz and you’d have to do all the hard work of removing/attaching the components yourself. For these reasons the Gainward CoolFX 2600 Ultra/ Golden sample is excellent both in performance and value. Another review can be found on TGH.
  • BFG GeForce 6800 GT OC review - BFG has come to the 6800 GT party with an excellent card that does everything it should and a whole lot more. I've owned many, many gaming cards in my computing life - from a 3dfx Voodoo Banshee to this 6800 GT. My personal favorite has been a Visiontek GeForce3, until now. The BFG 6800 GT OC has taken my gaming experience and kicked it up several orders of magnitude, affording me performance, compatibility, stability and image quality beyond my wildest expectations.
  • ATI Radeon X600 XT review - The Radeon X600 XT's downside comes into play when Anti-Aliasing and Anisotropic Filtering are enabled. Like almost all mainstream level cards before it, the Radeon X600 XT has trouble scaling well with AA and AF enabled at high resolutions. With the Radeon X600 XT priced at just over $200, the card's main competition will be from NVIDIA based GeForce FX 5750 cards, which are priced around the $185 mark
  • Samsung’s 243T 24 Inch LCD Display - The 243T is an impressive model, but at around $2,500 a pop, these screens are well out of the budget range of most users. Still, it’s a fun product for us to dream about one day having on our desks.
  • AirPort Express - Looking rather like a PowerBook AC adapter, the AirPort Express is a multipurpose device that can act as an 802.11b/g wireless access point, serve as a bridge to extend the range of your AirPort Extreme or Linksys WRT54G (more on that later), stream music from iTunes to a home stereo system, and finally, share a single USB printer via 802.11b/g. All this for US$129.
  • Cuttermaran 1.58 - Cuttermaran is a cut program for MPEG1 or MPEG2 video streams. The streams can be cut without recalculation. The asynchronous between audio and video will be minimized.
  • SpeedswitchXP 1.4 - SpeedswitchXP is a small applet that sits in the system tray and allows dynamic switching of the frequencies of mobile Intel and mobile AMD CPUs under Windows XP.
  • RightMark 3DSound 1.20 - A new version of RightMark 3DSound is available for download. What's new: functionality was considerably extended: all main features of ЕАХ4 Advanced HD were added - Environment filtering (Obstruction, Occlusion, Exclusion), Environment Reflections, Environment Panning, Multi-environments, Environment Morfing...
  • Zoom Player 4.01 RC2 - Zoom Player Standard (download), a flexible feature rich Media Player that for all its features and goodness remains bloat-free.
  • NEC ND-2510A firmware 2.06 - This firmware should continue the pattern from 2.05 of bitsetting to DVD-ROM for +R DL discs by default.
