Par intīmo

Wednesday, May 16th, 2007

Vai Jūs zinājāt, cik pisuāru ir Rīgas Kongresu Nama vīriešu tualetē? Tajā, kas pagrabā? Šovakar iegāju … un apstulbu. Skatienam pavērās vienkārši daile. Nē, tā bija nevis vienkārši “daile”, bet Daile, Dabīgo Vajadzību Oāze, Alfa un Omega, Svētais Grāls un Dziesmu Svētki. Krāšņā puslokā izvietoti, gozējās veseli piecpadsmit gabali, un vēl četri VIP pisuāri, izvietoti atsevišķi pie starpsienas, pusloka vidū. Tātad kopā: 19 (de-viņ-pad-smit)! Uff…

Google izpētījis tīmekļa “tumšo pusi”

Wednesday, May 16th, 2007

Kā ziņo BBC, atsaucoties uz Google analītiķiem, katra desmitā lapa, ko indeksējuši Google serveri, satur kodu, kas var “inficēt” jūsu datoru.

Padziļināta analīze tika veikta 4.5 miljoniem weblapu, no kurām 450 000 tūkstoši saturēja kodu, tādā vai citādā veidā mijiedarbojošos ar datora programatūru. Protams, ne jau bez nodoma.

“News Corporation” investē Latvijā – LNT un TV5

Tuesday, May 15th, 2007

Un kas teica, ka mēdiji mediji nav bizness? :)

8.maijā News Corp Europe, kas ir simtprocentīgs News Corporation uzņēmums, iegādājās telekompāniju LNT un 70% telekompānijas TV5 akcijas.

Interesanti, ko par to rakstīs pats NEWS Corp. Pagaidām – ne vārda.

“Sausais atlikums” – mazā tirgū bez lieliem partneriem iztikt grūti. Vai pat neiespējami.

Belkin Network USB Hub gets official

This five-port USB hub will work with your existing WiFi router to give you wireless access to printers, media readers, and external hard drives by simulating a direct USB connection that makes your computer think that the devices on the network are directly attached to the computer. Moreover, “special caching techniques” will enable high-speed USB devices to be supported along with isochronous transfers at full speed.

BELKIN preses relīze

Pagaidām tikai netiek atbildēts – kā tiek nodrošināta visa šī pasākuma drošība. Nez, vai es bez pienācīga pamatojuma pie šādas iekārts spraustu savu ārējo USB HDD, ja tur būtu kas vairāk kā veci anekdošu arhīvi no www.ass.lv, pie tam, savlaicīgi nobekapoti :)

Teksasa kosmosā

Nav tiesa, ka Teksasā visi ir naftas miljonāri un braukā ar pickup-trucks. Tiesa, Ford F-series šajā pavalstī IR visvairāk pārdotais transporta līdzeklis, bet Teksasa ir arī grupas ZZ TOP pieraksta vieta. Un ZZ TOP dalībnieku prātus nodarbina ne tikai fermeru braucamrīki :)

Vienaa no Tom’s Hardware banneriem seedeejis trojaanis…

ANI Trojan Sticks It to Popular Geek Hardware Site Visitors

More than a month after Microsoft patched the .ANI vulnerability, the geek favorite e-tailer Tom’s Hardware has found the W32.ani Trojan lurking in one of its banner ads.

ScanSafe, a managed Web security services company, on May 8 noticed a spike in traffic blocks that had a common theme. The company found that Tomshardware.com was unknowingly hosting the banner ad, which was redirecting users to a site where the driveby malware was automatically downloaded. In an interview with ScanSafe, Vice President of Product Strategy Dan Nadir said that the ad was being hosted out of a site in Argentina.

The banner ad was up, infecting victims with unpatched systems, for 24 hours. When ScanSafe contacted Tom’s Hardware, they were told that the site had already learned of the Trojan from its victims. The site has since removed the ad.

For any high-volume site such as Tom’s Hareware, a threat such as this stands to get many hits before it’s removed, even if it’s up only for an hour, Nadir pointed out.

According to a media kit on Tom’s Hardware, the site gets more than 5 million unique page views from more than 1.9 million unique visitors monthly. It ranks at No. 923 on Amazon.com’s Alexa Web traffic ranking service, according to ScanSafe.

The incident illustrates the current status of malware worming its way into places that many people wouldn’t expect them to be. “The trend a couple years ago was you could tell people to keep away from [certain sites, such as porn sites], and you’ll be safe. Because of these exploits, any site can potentially host malicious content. You can’t just rely on user education or URL filtering that says ‘This is a good site’ vs. ‘This s a bad site.’ Any site can potentially be a bad site. We’ve seen them in lots of MySpace pages, on Wikipedia pages and in banner ads. They’re all over the place now,” Nadir said.

A service like ScanSafe sits on the front end and uses real-time scanning to block these types of Trojan downloads before they have a chance to infect a system.
