  • MSIE Integer Overflow in Processing Bitmap Files Lets Remote Users Execute Arbitrary Code - A vulnerability was reported in Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) version 5. A remote user can execute arbitrary code on the target system. It is reported that a remote user can create a specially crafted bitmap file that, when loaded by IE, will trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code. The author states that this flaw was found by reviewing the recently leaked Microsoft Windows source code. The flaw reportedly resides in "win2k/private/inet/mshtml/src/site/download/imgbmp.cxx" (leaked Windows source code). The report indicates that IE 5 is affected but that IE 6 is not affected.
  • Police arrest Forces Reunited 'hacker' - Police have questioned a Lancashire man suspected of hacking the Forces Reunited Web site. The unnamed 29 year-old from Chorley, Lancashire was arrested and questioned last week by Wiltshire Police probing a cyber attack against the military equivalent of the popular Friends Reunited. After questioning, the man was released on police bail pending further inquiries, reports. A number of computers were seized from the man’s address and will now undergo forensic examination. Wiltshire Police have issued a statement on the arrest here.
  • Belgian police arrest female virus writer - A 19 year-old female technology student suspected of being the infamous virus writer Gigabyte was arrested by Belgian police last weekend.  The woman was charged with computer data sabotage offences, Belgian daily La Libre Belgique reports. Her alleged crimes are punishable by up to three years in prison and fines of up to L100,000. Police confiscated five of the teenager's computers and shut down her Web site. The 19 year-old, from Mechelen (30 kilometres north of Brussels), was released on bail pending further police inquiries.
  • Who's The Fastest Growing Linux Distro? - But according to one metric by Internet research company Netcraft's January survey, when measured by counting active sites that contain the name of a Linux distribution in the header of the open source Apache Server, the Debian version of Linux is showing the fastest growth in the past six months. From July 2003 through January 2004, Debian's 24.6 percent growth to 442,753 installations represented the fastest growth in that period, Netcraft said.
  • AMD cuts Athlon XP prices - AMD trimmed its prices today, knocking back the cost of buying its Athlon XP desktop and mobile chips by up to 34 per cent.
  • Dual Display Gaming Bigs Up - Without a doubt, "SurroundGaming" is not just a fun feature but also creates a new level of atmospheric immersion in games. If you're already using two monitors for your everyday computer work, you're only a step and some manual configuration work away from multi-display gaming - provided you have a graphics card using a Matrox or NVIDIA chip. Since ATi's processors don't support horizontal span mode, the list of games that will run in dual-monitor configurations on a Radeon board is short. Actually, the only title we know of that can do this is Microsoft's Flight Simulator 9.
  • World's Smallest, Always-Connected Windows XP PC Premiere - Vulcan Inc., founded by Paul G. Allen, announced today that it will preview FlipStart at DEMO 2004, the premier forum for new product innovation. Previously debuted as Vulcan's "MiniPC" prototype, FlipStart(TM) combines the performance and functionality of Microsoft(R) Windows(R) XP with the connectivity of wireless PDAs to provide users with continuous access to software, e-mail and the Web while on the go.
  • HP unveils 8x dual format DVD±R/RW writers - HP has so far only been selling single format DVD+R/RW writers but in the new dvd420i, dvd420e and dc4000 DVD writers HP has also added support for burning the DVD-R/RW format. The dvd420i is an internal IDE version, the dvd420e an external USB 2.0/firewire version and the Movie Writer dc4000 is an external USB 2.0 version with built-in analog video capture.
  • 3.2GHz EE  Northwood CPU review - Intel's Extreme Edition version of Northwood is targeted towards a specific and focused area of today's consumer. If you want something that is incredibly fast right out of the box for high speed gaming, extensive graphic work or just bragging rights at stock speeds, this processor is for you. The 3.2EE easily held its own in most benchmarks even against a steroid induced 2.4C clipping along with a 1Ghz+ FSB at 3.2Ghz.
  • Hercules Radeon 9600SE vs PNY GeForceFX 5600XT review -  Whichever way you look at it, PNYs GeForceFX 5600XT doesn't have either the muscle or the finesse to make itself the preferable card here in any way, shape or form. PNYs decision to use a 64-bit bus for this card, on top of the natural architectural disadvantages the 5600 core has against its 9600 rival, was not far short of suicide. The advice is simple - Don't bother with this card. It would be interesting to see how a 128-bit bus 5600XT (which most IHVs producing this card use) would cope against the 9600SE, you would certainly hope that it would perform somewhat better than PNYs rather miserable offering.
  • Dlink's DWL-G650+ PCMCIA 802.11g adaptor review - In brief, the DWL-G650+ is in fact a 54Mbps (802.11g) wireless PCMCIA card capable of 256bit encryption which appears to be well suited to take full advantage of the DI-624+'s features, in particular the 256bit encryption. The DWL-G650 is Dlink's PCMCIA version of their PCI based GWL-G520 card.
  • ME-770 USB 2.0 Hard Drive Enclosure review - RipNet-UK has checked out the ME-770 USB 2.0 Hard Drive Enclosure.
  • Roxio Easy Media Creator 7 review  - PCMag has posted a review of the Roxio Easy Media Creator 7.
  • Multiplexer Hotfix for DirectX 9.0, 9.0a, and 9.0b - This Hotfix corrects specific application compatibility issues with DirectX 9.0 changes in the DirectShow DV Decoder and Multiplexer.
  • OpenOffice 1.1.1b Stable - OpenOffice.org (Win32 ~ Linux) is the open source project through which Sun Microsystems is releasing the technology for the popular StarOffice productivity suite
  • RightMark 3D Beta 4 - RightMark 3D is Independent DirectX 3D Benchmarking Project.
  • Abit KT7/KT7 Raid BIOS - Abit has released a new BIOS update for the Abit KT7/KT7 RAID.
