    With the DVD issue: All someone (I am sure it would happen days before the tech actually was set in retail stores) would steal a scanner or whatever they use to activate the chip, dismantel it and find a way to either:

    A: create your own

    B: find how the tech works and by pass it using low-tech items.

    another bitch,

    think about this


    Experts agree that when used correctly, such scans can save lives. However, according to some estimates, the radiation exposure a patient receives from a full-body CT scan is often 500 times that of a conventional X-ray and about the same as that received by people living 2.4 kilometres away from the centres of the World War II atomic blasts in Japan.

    A VERY BIG BITCH


    Use Internet Explorer At Your Own Peril

    Malicious hackers are increasing using mainstream and popular web sites to spread their spyware and adware.
    Cybercrooks are corrupting Web pages by the tens of thousands. By tapping holes in the Internet Explorer browser, they implant tiny programs that connect the PC of anyone who simply clicks on the tainted page to a “mother ship” server, often in Russia or China.

    That central server collects data typed into online forms — banking log-ins and shopping cart transactions, for instance. It also hijacks the captured PC into a network of compromised PCs, known as “bots,” to spread spam.

    In one recent sweep, security firm Cyveillance identified 50,000 corrupted pages. Websense estimates the actual number may be 10 times that.

    Cyveillance often recovers caches of sensitive data for 10,000 to 200,000 individuals stored on mother ship servers, says product manager James Brooks.

    I’ll never figure out why anyone continues to use Internet Explorer once they’re told about Firefox and Opera and how much safer and better each of them are. Everyone also needs to keep their anti-virus and anti-spyware programs up to date and active.

    If this story doesn’t convince you, you might as well just turn over your computer to the malicious hackers as they’ll soon have control of it anyway.

    Malware and adware is increasingly used and connected to identity theft. Often these packages the hackers are silently installing contain keyloggers and other programs that capture your bank logins and credit card numbers along with other personal information. They either sell this information, extort you, or use it to commit identity theft themselves. Worse, once this stuff gets on your computer it’s nearly impossible to get completely off.

    ANOTHER BIG BIG BITCH


    MS update ate my CPU cycles

    The latest batch of patches from Microsoft has left some users in the slow lane.

    After applying the seven critical updates released by Redmond, some punters are finding their processor's resources eaten by an application called svchost.exe, in a way that mimics a viral infection. Svchost.exe is a generic name for services that run from dynamic-link libraries (DLLs).

    Outlook 2003 users have been hardest hit, with some linking the application's slow-down to the effects of a cumulative update to Internet Explorer. However, the effect is far from limited to Outlook 2003 users.

    The issue has cropped up on the WSUS (Windows Server Update Services) blog and among reports to the SANS Institute's Internet Storm Centre (ISC). The precise cause of the problem remains unclear. Microsoft is yet to respond to our requests to shed some light on the problem.

    Some users are experiencing relief by applying a hot fix issued to address problems involving non-response of svchost.exe (not exactly the symptom most are reporting) prior to upgrading their Windows Update client, ISC reports. Your mileage may vary.

    You receive an access violation error when you try to install an update from Windows Update or from Microsoft Update after you apply hotfix package KB916089

    SYMPTOMS
    When you try to install an update from Windows Update or from Microsoft Update, you experience the following symptoms:
    • The Svchost.exe process that runs Windows Update stops responding.
    • You receive an access violation error. This access violation stops the Server service and the Workstation service.
    You experience this problem after you install the hotfix that is described in the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:


    HOT FIX KB916089

    @Ireland ... that's some pretty sick stuff. In my very first week on the job as a social worker sixteen years ago, we had a girl in the office who had a baby at the age of 10! I didn't even think that was physiologically possible! She was raped by her own father. I've seen some seriously strange things in my line of work but at least I deal with adults; I don't think I could deal with some of the things my coworkers deal with.

    My bitch du jour: political campagne TV commercials and phone calls. I've turned my answering machine off.

    Wasnt the baby disabled or anything? Did she actually go through with having the baby?

    @Billyboy ... yes, she did have the baby but I don't know if it had any disabilities; she was in our office but I didn't have any direct dealings with it. I know why you ask though; there is a HUGE problem with that in our Amish communities; many marry through their church and not civil authority so there is no way to monitor it ... they marry their own cousins etc and have been doing so for generations so the disability and MH/MR problems are huge.
