Spam And Viruses Down?

Spam And Viruses Down? 09/08/2004 02:29 PM
It's only one month's worth of data (and only data from one company), but MessageLabs is claiming that spam and viruses decreased in August. It could just be that, like everyone else, spammers took vacations in August. However, some are suggesting that the US crackdo wn on spam operations may have helped. Of course, it should also be noted that that the creator of six of the ten top viruses is currently sitting in a German jail after charged with computer sabotage, which might just explain the slowdown in virus activity. Unfortunately, it's likely that others will come along to fill in the empty spaces left by those arrested until a longer term solution to spam is developed.

100,000+ Viruses in 2004

100,000+ Viruses in 2004 12/29/2004 02:28 PM
The BBC is reporting that there has been a 50% increase in the number of viruses released in 2004; as many as 100,000 viruses were seen 'in the wild', many of them doing serious damage to their targets. Bot-nets, computers infected with remote control software featured largely in 2004; equally prominent was the use of viruses and these bot-nets for cyber-crime and sending spam.

2004 also saw the release of the first proper virus for mobile phones. For PC's, in first place on the top ten viruses of 2004 was the Netsky worm variant, <a href="http://www.sophos.com/virusinfo/analyses/w32netskypdam.html ">Netsky-P</a>. The worm exploited a vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer and mailed itself to vulnerable Windows machines.

It's very easy to blame Microsoft for the security issues associated with their products; after all, 90%+ of people using a PC on the desktop run a version of Windows. However, Microsoft are continuing to make serious efforts when it comes to security, and Service Pack 2 was a massive step in the right direction. Yet Bruce Schneier, a security expert, believes that although the likes of SP2 were a good start, they aren't good enough. "Deep down, Microsoft still treats security problems as public relations problems. They are still not able to make the hard trade-offs of security and functionality. They still see features as their primary goal, and security secondary."

Security problems are here to say; sensible protection can help you avoid them. Stay patched up and only use secure and trusted programs. Recent company acquisitions by Microsoft could signal either the inclusion of basic anti-virus and anti-spyware with Windows in 2005, or the offering of a Microsoft anti-virus solution.

Microsoft Launches 'New' Chat Service

Microsoft Launches 'New' Chat Service 09/21/2004 02:58 PM
Although the Microsoft.com chat service has been around for quiet some time it has always relied on the MSN Chat ActiveX control. This had many restrictions. Users couldn't connect behind most corporate firewalls because the ActiveX control connected them to an IRC server effectively. The chat has now been revamped and over the coming weeks will be rolled out across all Microsoft chats and Tech-Net chats.

This is great news for those working at the time the chats are on. The new design is cleaner, requires no ActiveX control and most importantly connects using the HTTP protocol. Since the chat doesn't work in Firefox; Jana Carter (Technical Chat Product Manager) let us know that Microsoft are looking into increasing browser support in upcoming releases. A new addition to the chat is that you authenticate using .NET Passport. This makes it easier for chat moderators to ensure you are who you claim to be and to filter out individuals not sticking to chat rules.

Feel free to check out the new chat service by following the URL below. Microsoft welcome any feedback about the new service so please leave comments and we will ensure they're fed back. Thank you.

Tank Floor & Tank Bottom Corrosion
Problems 09/20/2004 08:45 AM
Since the introduction of steel tanks in the late 19th century corrosion has been an archenemy. Each year thousands of aboveground and underground steel tanks develop corrosion permeations that allow their contained liquids to escape into the environment. Depending on the product and where it ends up, the outcome can have disastrous consequences. The vast majority of these tank problems develop at or near the bottom of these tanks.

Microsoft Blogger : How can I trust
Firefox? 12/22/2004 01:23 AM
Microsoft employee Peter Torr has started a flame war in his own blog today. Torr claims that the distribution and code signing of Firefox isn't up to scratch. Torr provides screenshots of the latest XPSP2 protection IE but fails to mention the poor protection in IE 6 SP1 which many more users are still using. Nevertheless if you enjoy battling it out about Firefox vs IE then this is a read for you. Here's a snip:

"But the thing that makes me really not trust the browser is that it doesn't matter how secure the original code is if the typical usage pattern of the browser requires users to perform insecure actions.

· Installing Firefox requires downloading an unsigned binary from a random web server
· Installing unsigned extensions is the default action in the Extensions dialog
· There is no way to check the signature on downloaded program files
· There is no obvious way to turn off plug-ins once they are installed
· There is an easy way to bypass the "This might be a virus" dialog"

I have run into a few pages over at Microsoft that have not loaded from time to time in Firefox, and really did not think anything about it. Apparently it is getting the dandruff up of some of the Firefox development team. I am not all that surprised, but I would be curious to have a technical explanation on why they will not load or are they simply and truly being blocked? If someone can answer that question I think that would explain a lot on why it is happening. [weblogs .mozillazine.org/asa/]
