  • Sasser is fastest written Windows worm - The "Sasser" computer worm now plaguing computers around the world was based on a critical software flaw revealed by Microsoft just 17 days before the worm's release. Microsoft revealed a total of 20 software bugs in a bulletin issued on 13 April and the first version of Sasser appeared on 30 April. Over the next few days this and three variants - tweaked to improve the speed of infection - succeeded in infecting many hundreds of thousands of computers worldwide. Previously, the Blaster worm held the record for the fastest written Windows worm. It was unleashed on 11 August 2003, using a vulnerability revealed 25 days before it started to spread itself.
  • DRM 'will be cracked' says iTunes hacker - According to the Australian researcher who cracked the authentication used by Apple's iTunes software, current-generation Digital Rights Management (DRM) will never work.
  • Wi-Fi Security Improves - Two key improvements for the security and performance quality of Wi-Fi devices are scheduled to reach wireless network users this year as businesses and consumers continue to adopt wireless technology in greater numbers. The Wi-Fi Alliance will certify products for the new 802.11i and 802.11e standards by September, says Frank Hanzlik, managing director of the Wi-Fi Alliance. The 802.11i standard is the complete version of the preliminary security standard WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) introduced last year, while 802.11e is a new standard that will improve the quality of wireless networks that transmit voice and video.
  • Microsoft aligns Longhorn client and server - Microsoft has synchronised development efforts for the client and server versions of Longhorn, the code name for the next Windows release, a Microsoft executive says. "Today, the Longhorn client and the Longhorn server are tied together," Jim Allchin, vice president of Microsoft's platforms group, said in a keynote presentation at the company's annual Windows Hardware Engineering Conference (WinHEC).  Longhorn's release is still some time away. Microsoft executives have pointed to 2006 as the release year for the product. However, in his presentation Allchin did not give a target ship date for the client or server versions of the software. Previously, after hedging on whether it would even release a Longhorn server, Microsoft said it will introduce the server some time after the client release. In related news, some Neowin.net member has found the key to enabling DWM (Desktop Windows Manager, lately renamed from DCE) in Longhorn's build 4074, which was leaked last night
  • Off-topic: AOL Launches Site for Video Games - America Online on Wednesday unveiled a video game site for high-speed subscribers, a bid to attract more customers toward the broadband service it sees as key to its future growth.
  • Off-topic: Dark matter detector limbers up - This form of matter comprises more than 70% of the Universe's mass, far more than the stars and galaxies we can see. The Cryogenic Dark Matter Search uses equipment at the bottom of a Minnesota mine to filter out all interference.
  • Off-topic: Hormones converge for couples in love - Men are from Mars and women from Venus - except when they are in love. During this intense period, men and women become more like each other than at any other time. We already know that falling in love is a bit like going crazy. Donatella Marazziti of the University of Pisa in Italy showed in 1999 that levels of the neurotransmitter serotonin, which has a calming effect, dip below normal in those who say they are in love as well as in people with obsessive compulsive disorder. Now Marazziti has looked at the hormonal changes that occur in people who are in love. Her team measured the blood levels of several key hormones in 12 men and 12 women who said they had fallen in love within the past six months. The researchers compared these hormone levels to those in 24 other volunteers who were either single or in stable long-term relationships.
  • NVIDIA synergy only for new products - NVIDIA has confirmed that efforts to optimize the nForce system platform for GeForce graphics will only improve performance with nForce3 and newer chipsets in combination with GeForce FX and newer graphics products.
  • VIA to raise chipset prices by 6-10% in July - VIA Technologies will hike its chipset prices by 6-10% starting July 1 to reflect its rising production costs, according to sources at the chipset maker. This will be VIA’s second price increase this year, following a 5-8% increase in March.
  • xp-AntiSpy Version 3.81 - This is only a minor upgrade. What's new: The setting "Firewall service" was misleadingly displayed under Windows 2000. This concerns to the service called 'SharedAccess', who is responsible for the Internet Connection Sharing. Since SP2 for WinXP it additionally has the functionality of a firewall. If you use this programm on WinXP you don't need to update to the Version 3.81  (thanks Csimbi)

windows seams buggy cause they need to protect EVERY thing in their os. One small hole and some one can slip in. When you have 1 company tring to fix many holes and hundreds of thousands tring to just find 1.. obviously the hacker will win. ON ANY OS .. yes this means your beloved *nix systems and mac. Wait till linux comes main steam and mac to stop suckin ass and see how "secure" they are.
