- Hotmail Vulnerability Being Exploited by Spammers - A new--but not
well known--Microsoft vulnerability is being exploited by spammers, creating
even more
junk mail in your inbox. Microsoft has a terrible record of deploying
features without thinking through the security implications thereof--and
responding slowly when problems are discovered. Well, here we go again. In
recent releases, Microsoft implemented tighter integration between the Outlook
Express mail client and their Hotmail free email service. The WebDAV
(Distributed Authoring and Versioning) protocol is used to submit email to the
Hotmail servers.
- Verizon Turns Over Names in Piracy Case -
Verizon was compelled to give up the names Wednesday by the U.S. Court of
Appeals for Washington, D.C., which rejected the telecom giant's request for a
stay while it appeals a lower court decision won by the Recording Industry
Association of America. The RIAA has not decided what action to take against
the four Verizon customers, said Matt Oppenheim, the group's senior vice
president for business and legal affairs. (thanks kleptonin)
- Crazy 17" Monitor Case Modding - That has got to be
the
best monitor/case mod I have ever seen. Not my choice for colors, but I am
really impressed with the quality that went into

- DoCoMo to launch fuel cell-run handsets by 2005 - - NTT
DoCoMo Inc said on Thursday it expects to
launch a mobile phone powered by a fuel-cell battery for extended hours of
use as early as 2004, a potential boost for its high-speed third-generation
(3G) service. DoCoMo's 3G service, which offers video conferencing and speedy
access to the Web, had until recently met a cool reception due mainly to the
poor battery life of its handsets.

notebook Celerons in the first quarter of next year. And these will have 1MB
of level two cache as well as 400MHz front side buses.In the second quarter of

- Gigabyte GA-7NNXP, the Ultimate nForce2 Ultra 400 review -
This blue beast is one feature packed board, not only does it have
Firewire, GigaBit Ethernet, 4 DIMM slots, the board also has support for 10
ATA devices, 4 on nForce ATA133, 4 on the GigaRAID , and 2 S-ATA drives on the
Silicon Image controller. It was stable in standard configuration and had no
trouble running my XP 2500+ at XP3200+ 400FSB settings. The GA-7NNXP is also
an excellent overclocker with stable FSB speeds in excess of 240MHz. The Dual
BIOS is a useful feature and can prevent unnecessary RMAs.
- Pentium 4-2.8C, 2.6C and 2.4C review -
The release of the Intel Pentium 4-2.8C, 2.6C and 2.4C GHz processors is
significant for many reasons. The most obvious is the upgraded 800 MHz
front-side bus, and the ability to run at synchronous dual-channel DDR400
speeds, both of which increase performance quite noticeably. But just as
important is Intel moving Hyper-Threading technology down to the mass market
level, and really giving the new processors an advantage over non-HT Pentium 4
models, not to mention the entire Athlon XP line.
