• Microsoft Investigates New XP SP2 Flaw

    “Microsoft has acknowledged that it is working on a patch for a potentially serious security hole in fully patched versions of Windows XP Service Pack 2. […] In an advisory posted at SecurityProtocols.com, [a private security] researcher described the issue as a remote kernel denial-of-service flaw affecting XP SP2, with the default firewall turned on. […] the flaw resides in the Windows “Remote Desktop” feature that allows XP users to remotely control computers from another office, from home or while traveling.”

  • Siirsin TLA-kilvet ja Nuudelisopan WP:lle, pois Bloggerista. Jo oli aikakin, sen verran paljon tuo on taas viime aikoina takkuillut.

    Toteutin Ns:n kanssa tuon siirron vähän eri tavalla kuin aikoinaan marginaalissa: jätin vanhat postaukset ihan suosiolla html-muotoonsa ja pois WP:n tauluja täyttämästä.

    TLA-kilpiin väänsin huvikseni tuon Bloggerin 565-teemankin.

  • Spread Firefox Attacked

    “As you’ve no doubt noticed, we’ve been down for a few days. We took the site down to investigate an attack on the site. It appears that a part of Spread Firefox was hacked in an attempt to use it to send out spam. It doesn’t look like the attacker accessed any personal data on the site, but to be safe, we’re encouraging all of our users to log in and change their passwords. If you have an account with Spread Firefox, you probably received an email about this with instructions for updating your password.”

  • Kuolleenasyntyneen moottoriksi WP 1.5.1.2

    Päivitin Kuolleenasyntyneen moottoriksi WP:n version 1.5.1.2 (se kulki aiemmin 1.2:lla), sillä vanhan version kommenttispamsuodatuksesta vastannut Spamkarma alkoi yskiä, eli päästi läpi pöläyksen asiattomia viestejä. Koska 1.5:n myötä nuo ongelmat ovat jotakuinkin haihtuneet ilmaan, päivitys oli luontevin ratkaisu.
