Troubleshooting Common Problems with the
XmlSerializer

Troubleshooting Common Problems with the
XmlSerializer 06/20/2004 11:47 PM
The XmlSerializer in the .NET Framework is a great tool to map strongly structured XML data to .NET objects. The XmlSerializer performs the transformations between XML documents and objects in your program with a single API call. The mapping rules for the transformation are expressed in the .NET classes via metadata attributes. This programming model comes with its own class of errors that developers need to learn how to diagnose. For example, the metadata attributes have to describe all variations of an XML format that a serializer can process. This article examines the various errors that can occur when building XML based solutions with the XmlSerializer, and discusses techniques and tools to diagnose them.

Yahoo's Offers New Anti-Spyware Tool...
That Actually Finds Spyware

Yahoo's Offers New Anti-Spyware Tool...
That Actually Finds Spyware 08/05/2004 03:50 AM
It appears that Yahoo heard the backlash loud and clear a few months back when they released an anti-spyware tool that just so happened to skip over adware from Yahoo partners. The latest version, built on PestPatrol's technology will now default to notifying users of both "spyware" and what they consider to be "adware" and then give the user the choice of what to do. I haven't tested the product yet, but it sounds like they're moving in the right direction. It still makes you wonder what they were thinking in offering a purposely crippled offering. People know what spyware is, and telling them that spyware isn't spyware doesn't change how people feel about it. It also doesn't make them look kindly back at the company that provided them with the bogus anti-spyware tool in the first place.

Yahoo's Famed Anti-Spyware App Allows

Yahoo's Famed Anti-Spyware App Allows
Spyware From Partners 06/02/2004 10:10 AM
We didn't write about Yahoo's new "anti-spyware" toolbar that they announced last week, because it seemed to receive plenty of hype, and there were no real reviews of how it worked. There are so many so-called anti-spyware applications out there that don't actually stop spyware and adware for fear of upsetting marketing companies or out of worries that actually stopping spyware may make some applications stop working (upsetting the user), that we figured Yahoo's anti-spyware app (hype and all) probably wouldn't be much to bother with. It certainly looks like that may be the case. eWeek is now reporting that Yahoo tries to dance the careful dance of not upsetting certain companies who threate n to sue people who call their application spyware. Of course, the situation is even more complex because Claria (who you probably know as Gator - despite their attempt to change their name to shake that spyware label) is also a partner of Yahoo. So, it's really not surprising that the default setting for Yahoo's anti-spyware app won't actually remove services like Gator or WhenU. Instead, Yahoo's spyware remover claims these programs are "adware" and will only remove them if you click and extra check box each time you run the program. In other words, once again, you can't trust a provider of anti-spyware software, because they're playing both sides of the fence: partnering with providers on the one hand, and then offering weak removal products on the other. If Yahoo were serious about removing spyware from the computers of users they would refuse to partner with companies that used surreptitious tactics to be installed on computers. Instead, they want to look good to users in the front, while letting in spyware/adware from partners through the backdoor.

Just a few weeks after saying that they're going to start bundling spyware/adware with their instant messenger product, AOL announces their latest anti-spyware application. While we've been complaining about anti-spyware from ISPs that just points out the spyware, AOL claims that this version will disable (though not delete) the spyware. I wonder if it will catch the spyware that AOL installs themselves.

How Many Problems Does Spyware Cause?

How Many Problems Does Spyware Cause? 04/26/2004 11:53 AM
While most of this article covers standard ground about anti-spyware legislations and software programs (though, oddly, it does not mention the two most popular spyware programs: AdAware and Spybot Search & Destroy), at the very beginning it notes two interesting tidbits on the impact of spyware. Dell claims that 12% of their calls now involve questions about spyware (meaning it's good that Dell has changed their "don't talk about spyware" policy) while Microsoft claims that 50% of PC crashes are actually due to spyware. While this might seem like a convenient out for Microsoft (whose machines certainly crashed plenty in the time before spyware), it does indicate just how troublesome spyware is on many computers. The worst part isn't just the problems it causes, but the fact that most users have no idea that it's even on their machines at all.

My older, wiser brother Steve points out: "Although Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) provides fixes for many of Internet Explorer's persistent security flaws, it does little or nothing about spyware, where "free" software adds code to your system that can capture keystrokes, monitor e-mail and IM traffic, and send the resulting data back to the invader's home base without your knowledge."

Watch out for Mac OS spyware

Watch out for Mac OS spyware 03/29/2005 10:45 AM
Gartner Dataquest is cautioning businesses reliant on the Mac to guard against "spyware infestations." According to ZDNET News, Martin Reynolds, vice president of Gartner's Dataquest organization, said although the overall Mac user base is relatively small, just one vulnerability exploit could cause trouble. "The Macintosh installed base is relatively small, with only about three percent of systems in use today running the Mac OS… The Mac OS is also a harder target… However, it only takes one exploited weakness to cause trouble," said Reynolds in a research note. He added that a Mac-only worm would be unlikely to spread very quickly. It might be possible to create a hybrid worm that attacks both the Mac and Microsoft Windows operating systems, but such an attack would be difficult to orchestrate.
