- Symantec security product contains flaw - Security Check is
meant to help people lock down their systems and loads an ActiveX script that
aids in scanning a person's computer.
Ironically, the ActiveX script, which remains on the computer even after
scanning, contains a memory flaw that could be used by an attacker to break
into the PC. Symantec has replaced the ActiveX component--which uses the name
Symantec RuFSI Utility Class or Symantec RuFSI Registry Information
Class--uploaded by the site with a new one that overwrites the old software
and solves the problem.

NVIDIA Quadro FX Go700 mobile workstation graphics solution. The NVIDIA
Quadro FX Go700 is available immediately from Dellt in the Dell Precisiont M60
mobile workstation.
- Sapphire Radeon 9600 Pro review - Almost never seen today using
stock cooling we were able to increase our original stock 3D Mark 2001 SE
scores by 1500-1800 3dmarks throughout all resolutions tested, a phenomenal
amount and one that deserves much attention particularly when
the
relatively quiet fan of the Sapphire Atlantis Radeon 9600 Pro is used to
cool the card.
- PowerColor ATi R9800 Pro 128MB review - Overclockers New Zealand
has posted
a review on PowerColor ATi R9800 Pro 128MB VGA. "Well, what can I say?
ATi successfully regain the champion title in the high-end graphics market
with the release of R9800Pro. Currently, there are no other cards, including
Nvidia FX5800Ultra, that can match R9800Pro's performance, especially when
FSAA is enabled. The other advantage ATi has over Nvidia is the noise level.
ATi R9800Pro is surprising quiet when comparing to Nvidia's flagship,
FX5800Ultra."
- MSI FX5600-VTDR128 Review - As mentioned before in the
specifications,
the GPU clock runs at 325 Mhz, and the memory runs at 550 Mhz. I was able
to boost the GPU up to 360 Mhz, and the memory to 650Mhz stable, a 35 Mhz
overclock on the core, and a 100Mhz effective overclock on the ram (it's
actually only a 50 Mhz overclock on the ram, but because the card uses DDR
RAM, it is treated as an effective 100 Mhz).
- ATI Radeon 9600 Pro review - Hexus.net let us know they have posted
a review
of the ATI Radeon 9600 Pro. It seems they like this card: "This is what
the midrange is all about. Good IQ combined with good performance and 9600 Pro
(and 9500 Pro before it) certainly brings that to the table."
- Dual Opteron K8D Master Review -
The K8D Master mainboard of course supports the new 64bit cpu from AMDR
the Opteron DPt. The cpu comes in now familiar plastic package with the
heatsink fan assembly. The cpu is quite large, compare it with a P4 cpu (left
of picture). The Opteron DPt cpu introduces a number of new elements to cpu
design one of the major one's of course is the integrated memory controller,
supporting up to 166 MHz DDR.
- MSI MegaPC Review - It is clear that
MSI have
put a great deal of time and effort into producing the MegaPC. The result
is a very well built machine that contains some excellent engineering design
and some interesting features. Internally we feel that MSI have produced one
of the most useable mini pc solutions on the market today. Externally the
materials used are excellent with the exception of the front where too much
plastic has been used. The colour scheme will undoubtedly put some people off.
- ATI's Radeon 9100 IGP Reviewed - The problem is that entry-level
Pentium 4-based PC makers are hard-pressed to deliver decent 3D performance at
a very low price-point. But it's also an opportunity for ATI; and one the
company has
responded to with its new Radeon 9100 IGP system chipset. ATI's latest
integrated solution, which is targeted at both laptop and desktop systems,
brings DX8-level technology into a north bridge, and with it respectable
entry-level gaming performance. This DX8 level of performance means pixel
shader hardware, and the in the case of the R9100 IGP, the ability to do
vertex shaders in software.
- Lindows 4.0 Review - The price of Lindows has been dropped to
$49.95 and additional add-ons such as VirusSafe and SurfSafe are now available

Click-N-Run software library has also been changed to $49.95 a year, or $4.95
a month. When you purchase Lindows, your first year of Click-N-Run is free.
ExtremeTech have received the shipping
version of Lindows 4.0,
and installed it on their Linux test machine, a Compaq Presario 6000 (1.6Ghz
AMD with 512MB of RAM).
