| | With the flood of news coming about the .ani exploits it seems the tech world is recieve more news about new hacks, viruses and other bad stuff these days. Today Kaspersky Lab created a virus that is able to affect the Ipod, however, it is only affecting Ipod's that have linux installed and not the standard OS that comes with Ipod. The virus goes by the name of Podloso, although they say it doesn't show a current threat this virus does show the possiblity to install malware into devices such as the Ipod. They also mention that the virus does not copy it self and thus hte user must install it ifrom another Ipod n order for the virus to go into effect. Also the virus will not go from Ipod to Pc either (well not yet)
They do mention that their are several hundred known phone viruses that are out their in the tech world.

does so when internet explorer is not actually running! Furthermore, i have a new process

Lightweight Free Anti Virus Software?
(5) Hello, I was wondering if anybody knew of a good free lightweight antivirus program, as I just got
an internet connection on my slower computer. The computer itself can hardly be called
internet-ready, it's over 10 years old, but it still works fine, the problem is I'm worried
that an antivirus program would slow it down too much. (I have Norton Antivirus and Firewall on my
other computer, which is much faster, and it slows down the computer a lot, especially booting. I
kinda want this computer to be usable online.) I know that there are some great programs out ....
Zune Ii, Is This Gonna Be An Ipod Killer?
(12) Many people have been disappointed with the Zune- Microsoft's attempt at developing an iPod
killer media playing machine. I don't know too much about media players, but you would think
that if it has wifi capabilities, it should be able to go online. Well, the MS Zune lets you preview
other people's music, which you would then have to buy. I guess that the idea has some merit,
but come on? I digress. Does anyone think that the Zune will outsell the ipod this holiday season?
Some people seem to think so. With a price tag of $100 in some popular electroni....

Microsoft Says Gmail Is A Virus
(65) QUOTE It seems that Microsoft has started flagging Gmail as a virus in their virus scanning
software Windows Live OneCare. Many people are reporting that every time they open Gmail, a warning
is displayed telling the user they are infected with "BAT/BWG.A". Now, either Gmail is a virus, or
Microsoft is generating false positives. Some affected by this "virus" say other anti-virus products
do not pick up the infection — to me, this is a bit suspicious. So who should be responsible for
fixing the problem? Either Google can wait for Microsoft to update their virus def....

My Ipod Is Randomly Skipping Songs, Losing Data,
regaining data, and freezing (21) This morning I was going to listen to some music, so I got my iPod, turned it on, and it reset (I
hadn't had it plugged in for a while). When I got to the music, it would go through half of a
song, then skip to the next. After doing this a couple times, it would just skip entire songs.
It'd skip six or seven, then do half of one, then skip six or seven more. Later I looked on the
internet for some ideas, so eventually I tried resetting it again, as instructed. This worked for a
little bit, but then it started skipping over songs again. I reset again, and it lost....

Trojan Horse (9) I was evaluating games sites for my "Play" page, when a message came up that McAfee had trapped a

say where the virus came from. My question is: Could that virus have come from some other site, but
took McAfee a few minutes to find it or is it an instantaneous thing, so I know that the site I was
on was the culprit? Is there a Virus Buster in our midst who'd like to track this down and nail
the bleep or should I just forget about it and move on? As you've probabl....
