- NY Times Readers Can't Digest Klez Worm - According to Times
spokeswoman Christine Mohan, approximately 250 subscribers to the TimesDigest service
received the e-mail, which carried an attached file infected with Klez.
- MP3 viruses could play with Winamp - A bug in the
code of Winamp 2.79 allows a specially formed data tag in an MP3 file to cause a
buffer overrun in the application, which could be exploited to run any piece of code the
attacker wishes. The glitch was posted to the Bugtraq security mailing list Friday by
Andreas Sandblad, a Swedish engineering student.
- Hackers Continue 'Early Warning' Attacks On U.S. Web Sites - A
team of hackers, cutting a wide swath of Web-site defacements across the country in what
they say is the interests of national security, added servers from
Sandia National Laboratories, the U.S. Geological Survey and the National Institute of
Standards and Technology (NIST) to a list of conquests today.
- Multiple Solaris vulns reported - According to eSecurityOnline, your Solaris
system is screwed six
ways to Sunday, though we'll note that the majority of stuff-ups they cite are not
remotely exploitable
- Microsoft: XP SE Not Happening - Microsoft will release XP SP1
this fall, and then begin the beta program for the next Windows version (code-named
Longhorn). But Longhorn isn't set to ship until sometime in 2004, leaving an empty release
slot in late 2003. The fact that Microsoft has shipped a new consumer Windows product
every year since 1995 has led
to speculation about XP SE.
- Plans for PlayStation 3 - Sony has courted alliances with some
of the technology industry's biggest hitters in an effort to "soundly beat whatever
our rivals produce next''. IBM and Toshiba are jointly designing the central chip that
will control the PlayStation 3 at a top-secret technology lab in Austin, Texas. The
project, which aims to create the ultimate graphics and sound processor, is believed to
cost around $1bn (£650m).
- AMD gains on Intel, sets Hammer speeds - AMD's chairman, Jerry
Sanders, told an audience at Merrill Lynch's Hardware Heaven conference in San Francisco
that Hammer, the company's forthcoming chip for desktops and servers, will debut at 2GHz
or higher. Hammer will ship to PC makers in the fourth quarter and will be released to
the public in the first quarter of 2003, Sanders added.
- Gainward release Ti4200 prices - Gainward have just
sent us these prices on the new Ti4200 cards, this in my opinion confirms Gainwards
commitment to the UK gamer. As you are probably aware, Ti4200's offer near Ti4400
performance for a fraction of the price, check em out. Street prices SRP 64MB Ultra/650
TV/DVI £179.99 inc VAT
128MB ULtra/650 XP Golden Sample £249.99 inc VAT expect online pricing to be lower!!!! Of
course the price in $ is approximately £1 to $1.4.
- CPU & Chipset Lapping Guide - Every metal surface on every
heatsink that I have ever seen has a lot of little imperfections in them. It simply isn't
possible for the manufacturers to produce perfectly flat bottomed heatsinks. They are good
enough for you to use but by doing something called lapping you can usually lower your
temps a few degrees. Any real mod freak will want to lap the heatsink on your northbridge
as well as the one on your CPU. Today we will be lapping
our Northbridge heatsink but you can use the same principles on your CPU and heatsink.
- Quake 3 Engine Tweak Guide - What I am going to do is show you a
copy of the default q3config.cfg file and then explain just a few items you will want to edit for your
preferences. A very brief but informative description will be used. Not all of
these settings will be in all Quake III based games but most will be. There will be
options in the newer games that are not shown here. If it is an item to be simply enabled
or disabled then 1=true or on, 0=false or off.
- How to Use Computer Management in WinXP - Computer Management is
a collection of Windows administrative tools that you can use
to manage a local or remote computer. The tools are organized into a single console,
which makes it easy to view administrative properties and to gain access to the tools that
are necessary to perform your computer-management tasks.
