  • Sober Sings the Praises of Sobig - Kaspersky Labs warns about the start of a virus epidemic from the Sober Internet worm. Sober was first detected this past Saturday, but is now observed surging in activity in connection with the beginning of the workweek. Sober is a classic Internet worm that spreads via e-mail. Infected e-mail messages can have various body texts in English and in German; additionally the infected file attachment can have one of several file extensions (PIF, BAT, SCR, COM, EXE). All of this makes it significantly more difficult to identify from outside appearances.
  • Off-topic: Sun erupts in biggest storm in years - The outburst was classified an X17.2 flare, the third largest on record, according to Paal Brekke, a project scientist with the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO), a sun-watching satellite mission jointly run by NASA and the European Space Agency.  In comparison, two solar storms observed last week were between X1 and X5, Brekke said.  Solar flares are associated with coronal mass ejections, or CMEs, eruptions from the sun that, if headed our way, can disrupt communications satellites and power grids. As this particularly fast-moving CME is aimed directly toward Earth, it is possible that when it arrives midday Wednesday, the geomagnetic activity will be strong enough to stir up electrical trouble.

  • AMD slashes Opteron prices by up to 40% - AMD yesterday trimmed its prices, following on from the cuts Intel made to its Pentium 4 and Celeron prices on Sunday.  The Opteron line saw some of the biggest cuts, with the price of the 844 falling 40 per cent, but the AMD's focus was its 32-bit Athlon chips.
