Financial data stealing virus
06/29/2004 08:29 PMIs your financial data safe? If you are using Internet Explorer,
chances are that it is not. There is a new virus making it’s
rounds that takes advantage of three separate exploits built within
Internet Explorer. While Microsoft was able to issue a patch for two
of the three exploits, the remaining one is certainly enough to get
yourself infected. Experts are advising users to either use a Mozilla
based browser or perhaps the Opera browser in place of Internet
Explorer.
The author of this post only uses Firefox and could not be bribed for
any amount of cash to start using Internet Explorer again. If you are
someone that simply “must” use IE, then consider turning
the security settings all the way up in a fleeting hope that the
virtual boogie man will decide to pass you by.

Microsoft Creates Anti-Virus Bounty To

Microsoft Creates Anti-Virus Bounty To
Help Track Down Virus Writers
11/05/2003 10:59 AMWhat do you if you're in an unchartered area with no reasonable law
enforcement, and criminals are running rampant? You convince everyone
to become the "enforcement" arm and find someone rich enough to pay
them to help fight crime. Microsoft can't be bothered to fix a few of
the holes in their programs that make it incredibly easy to pass on
viruses, so instead, they're
setting aside $5 million for anti-virus bounty hunters who can
track down anyone responsible for worms, trojan horses or viruses.
The rewards will be given out in $250,000
wads of cash from
Bill Gates wallet increments. So, now, who's going to round
up an anti-virus posse?

01/09/2004 09:57 PM Exhibit A:
An unattributed article on Google Bombing posted last month on the Web
site of Glenn Beck, a radio talk show guy.
Exhibit B: An article on Google
Bombing from 2001 on Uber.nu, attributed to Adam Mathes. Compare and
contrast. It's possible Beck purchased the article for reprint, but
the lack of attribution, either to
Mathes or
So New Media, suggests against it.
Assuming plagiarism, two questions:
1. After a decade of the existence of the Web, how is
it that people still don't get the concept that content plagiarized
from the Web is easily discoverable, particularly when posted
on the Web?
2. Honestly, now, is it really that hard to
rewrite?

On stealing authenticity...
On stealing authenticity...
10/29/2003 12:10 AMSo I'm sitting at my new Powerbook watching The Man of Law's Tale when Cameron Marlow IM's me to say
that he's in this conference watching a paper called, Visual
Factors In Constructing Authenticity In Weblogs and they've just
started citing the design of my site. It would probably be
disingenuous of me to say that I just ripped off kottke, although when I first showed
it to him, he did think it was a joke. Sigh. Anyway, it looks like an
interesting paper:
The emergence of weblogs as contributing to the public
sphere has returned concerns about authenticity in renewed form:
readers who encounter weblogs must construct some basis of trust in
the content and the subjectivity represented there in textual form.
Many sources of authenticity are largely verbal (mutual citations,
ideological coherence, recognized links, ease of access, ranking on
index sites). Beyond these, however, there are visual cues which tend
to promote confidence: these visual cues are more easily overlooked
but nonetheless important in establishing the writers’
credibility.
