- Star Wars film clones invade the Net - Bootleg copies of
"Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones" have appeared on the Internet a
week before the film's premiere in cinemas, according to a report in the LA Times.
- New Web spyware eschews cookies - The Scottish Enterprise called
the technology being developed by Petropoulakis' team a "breakthrough,"
outpacing any other technology on the market by allowing a more detailed profile of a Web
user's activity. According to a statement, the technology traces
Internet use via "sensors" rather than cookies, or bits of code that sit on
computer hard drives that have long been used by Web sites to monitor people's travels on
the Web.
- Stopping the cyber-criminals - One of the most important tools
used by computer forensic experts at NHTCU and at 2,000 other law enforcement agencies
around the world is EnCase, a piece of software developed by US firm Guidance Software.
Investigators place a suspect's hard drive in their forensic computer. EnCase creates a mirror image of the drive which will be used as
evidence in court and has safety features built in to ensure that the original cannot be
tampered with. Then EnCase sets about reading the drive's file structure scouting for
evidence of criminal activity.
- First Humans to Receive ID Chips - Eight people will be injected with silicon chips Friday, making them scannable just like a
jar of peanut butter in the supermarket checkout line. The miniature devices, about the
size of a grain of rice, were developed by a Florida company. They will be targeted to
families of Alzheimer's patients--one of the fastest growing groups in American
society--as well as others who have complicated medical histories.
- NV30: Info straight from Nvidia - You might think this is just
rumors, but this is straight from Nvidia who held a Seminar to some top end
developers. So if these end up being wrong, blame Nvidia as they are the ones who held the
seminar. Here is the info: I caught a couple of NV30 specs for you. First the RAM will
be running at 900Mhz. Secondly, they are claiming at this point 200 million polys per
second.
- Fujitsu Develops Record-Breaking 300Gb/in² HDD Technology - Fujitsu
has developed revolutionary new read head and media technologies that will enable hard
disk drive (HDD) recording densities of up to 300 gigabits per square inch (Gb/in²). The new technologies are
expected to lead to the commercial introduction within two to four years of 2.5" hard
disk drives with capacities up to six times the recording density available today.
- Previewing Windows .NET Servers - If you have just finally
finished figuring out the relationship between the various versions of operating systems
coming out from Microsoft over the past couple of years, get ready to be challenged once
again. The successor line to the server versions of the Windows 2000 operating system is
called .NET Server and is currently available as a Beta 3 release to MSDN subscribers and
other beta testers. It was originally called Whistler Server, but after the Beta 2 release
it acquired a new name (despite an interim announcement that Whistler Server would be
released as Windows 2002 Server). In this
article I'll try to summarize what is new and exciting in this new release.
- Sonique2 Alpha 2.1.5.09 - An updated build of the second alpha
of Sonique2
has been released.
- VIA 4-In-1 v4.39 beta 1- This driver
addresses some issues with the previous release and incorporates drivers and support for
current and future chipsets.
- GeForce Tweak 3.2 - Johannes Tuemler has just released version
3.2 final of his extremely popular GeForce overclocker/tweaker - GeForce Tweak Utility.
