good morning to ye all
some good news for ye!

Microsoft cursor bug found

p2pnet.net news:- Bill and the Boyz say they'll today issue a fix for a critical flaw in the way Windows, including Vista, handles animated cursors.

Microsoft has been aware of it since December, but it became known to the general public only last week.

To make things worse, W32.Fubalca, a new worm which infects executables and HTML-type files, inserting links to malicious Animated Cursor files, has been found in the wild, says Symantec Security Response.

"The worm infects executables on all drives (including removable drives), except for the drive that Windows is installed upon (e.g. C," says the alert. "As well as exploiting the vulnerability, the worm appears to spread through removable drives and already-mapped network shares."

Now, "From our ongoing monitoring of the situation, we can say that over this weekend attacks against this vulnerability have increased somewhat," says Christopher Budd on the Microsoft Security Response Center Blog, going on:

Additionally, we are aware of public disclosure of proof-of-concept code. In light of these points, and based on customer feedback, we have been working around the clock to test this update and are currently planning to release the security update that addresses this issue on Tuesday April 3, 2007.

I want to note that we are testing still and will be up until the release, to ensure the highest quality possible. So, it's possible that we will find an issue that will force us to delay the release. If we do find an issue, though, we will let you know through the MSRC weblog as soon as we know.

I'm sure one question in people’s minds is how we’re able to release an update for this issue so quickly. I mentioned on Friday that this issue was first brought to us in late December 2006 and we've been working on our investigation and a security update since then. This update was previously scheduled for release as part of the April monthly release on April 10, 2007. Due to the increased risk to customers from these latest attacks, we were able to expedite our testing to ensure an update is ready for broad distribution sooner than April 10.

Anyway, afternoon all.

Edit2: Heh, talk of the devil :O

 

Good night to all....... and I leave my friends with the little piece of wisdom. btw it makes me want to change. ;-)

MARBLES........
The older I get, the more I enjoy Saturday mornings. Perhaps
it's the quiet solitude that comes with being the first to rise,
or maybe it's the unbounded joy of not having to be at work.
Either way, the first few hours of a Saturday morning are most
enjoyable.

A few weeks ago, I was shuffling toward the garage with a
steaming cup of coffee in one hand and the morning paper in the
other. What began as a typical Saturday morning turned into one
of those lessons that life seems to hand you from time to time.
Let me tell you about it:

I turned the dial up into the phone portion of the band on my
ham radio in order to listen to a Saturday morning swap net. Along
the way, I came across an older sounding chap, with a tremendous
signal and a golden voice. You know the kind; he sounded like he
should be in the broadcasting business. He was telling whomever
he was talking with something about "a thousand marbles."
I was intrigued and stopped to listen to what he had to say.

"Well, Tom, it sure sounds like you're busy with your job. I'm
sure they pay you well but it's a shame you have to be away from
home and your family so much. Hard to believe a young fellow
should have to work sixty or seventy hours a week to make ends
meet. It's too bad you missed your daughter's "dance recital" he
continued. "Let me tell you something that has helped me keep my
own priorities." And that's when he began to explain
his theory of a "thousand marbles."

"You see, I sat down one day and did a little arithmetic. The
average person lives about seventy-five years. I know, some live
more and some live less, but on average, folks live about
seventy-five years.

"Now then, I multiplied 75 times 52 and I came up with 3900,
which is the number of Saturdays that the average person has in
their entire lifetime. Now, stick with me, Tom, I'm getting to
the important part.

It took me until I was fifty-five years old to think about all
this in any detail", he went on, "and by that time I had lived
through over twenty-eight hundred Saturdays." "I got to thinking
that if I lived to be seventy-five, I only had about a thousand
of them left to enjoy. So I went to a toy store and bought every
single marble they had. I ended up having to visit three toy
stores to round up 1000 marbles. I took them home and put them
inside a large, clear plastic container right here in the shack
next to my gear."

"Every Saturday since then, I have taken one marble out and
thrown it away. I found that by watching the marbles diminish, I
focused more on the really important things in life. There is
nothing like watching your time here on this earth run out to
help get your priorities straight."


"Now let me tell you one last thing before I sign-off with you
and take my lovely wife out for breakfast. This morning, I took
the very last marble out of the container. I figure that if I
make it until next Saturday then I have been given a little
extra time. And the one thing we can all use is a little more time."

"It was nice to meet you Tom, I hope you spend more time with
your family, and I hope to meet you again here on the band. This
is a 75 Year old Man, K9NZQ, clear and going QRT, good morning!"

You could have heard a pin drop on the band when this fellow
signed off. I guess he gave us all a lot to think about. I had
planned to work on the antenna that morning, and then I was
going to meet up with a few hams to work on the next club newsletter..

Instead, I went upstairs and woke my wife up with a kiss. "C'mon
honey, I taking you and the kids to breakfast." "What brought
this on?" she asked with a smile. "Oh, nothing special, it's
just been a long time since we spent a Saturday together with the
kids. And hey, can we stop at a toy store while we're out? I
need to buy some marbles...

A friend sent this to me, so I to you, my friend.

And so, as one smart bear once said... "If you live to be a
hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day, so I
never have to live without you." - Winnie the Pooh.

 

Morning all - still alive and kicking here.

 

Good Morning AD!!!

morning


Mary had a little Sheep,
With the Sheep she went to sleep.
Sheep Turned out to be a RAM,
And Mary had a little Lamb.



There was a young gigolo named Bruno
Who said, "Screwing's one thing I do know.
While women are fine,
And sheep are divine,
Lama's are numero uno!"


Jack and Jill went up the hill,
With a keg of brandy.
Jack got stewed, Jill got screwed,
Now it's Jack Jill and Andy.


There was this lady from Niger,
Who smiled as she rode on a tiger. They returned from the ride,
With the lady inside
And the smile on the face of the tiger.
