Windows' Patchguard Hinders Security Vendors
eldavojohn writes "Windows' PatchGuard seems to be upsetting third party security vendors such as Symantec, Sana Security and Agnitum. It sounds like the 'black hats' will be able to bypass this security feature (which will be in all copies of Vista) but force security software companies to give up developing software for Windows. From the article: 'PatchGuard will make it harder for third parties, particularly host intrusion-prevention software, to function in Vista,' said Yankee Group analyst Andrew Jaquith. 'Third parties have two choices: continue to petition Microsoft to create an approved kernel-hooking interface so products like theirs can work, or use "black hat" techniques to bypass the restrictions.' Apparently, using these techniques is not a difficult trick."
Depakote (GNAP) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - A group of GNAA members recently opened talks with sister organization Anti-Slash to discuss a strategic partnership. Spokessheman penisbird began talks this morning with THE UBERNIGGER, a top official in the Anti-Slash movement.
"We are confident the union of our two very powerful organizations will yield effective results in the battle against Slashdot," penisbird stated confidently at the press release. "Although we respect CmdrTaco for his remarkable scat eating and rectal dialation abilities, we must perservere and remain true to the cause, despite collateral damage. CmdrTaco, a long time closet support of the GNAA was not available for comment. However, Hemos, his gay lover said after wiping CmdrTaco's semen off his face told reporters that Slashdot would make every effort to out-fag the combined GNAA/Anti-Slash offensive.
