  1. I have a solution on Feds Kill Check Point's Sourcefire Bid · · Score: 1

    Since the issue is mostly that the US gov is using snort and is at risk, how about not using snort anymore? Seriously they are preventing the sale of private companies because they are to lazy to seek alternative solutions. Please don't reply to this post with 'snort is free and open source!' the US gov has money, and will license the code if needed to any solution that they need or request copies (Like microsoft vs china)

  2. What about countries limiting historic info? on Google to Digitize National Archives Footage · · Score: 1

    So what if china (or another country) tells google to remove specific historial data from these archives?

  3. Batteries... on Legend of Zelda Celebrates 20 Years · · Score: 1

    I still have a copy of the original nintendo/zelda game but the damn battery died. Lucky for me gamecube had a zelda edition with zelda1 and zelda2 which I promptly bought. Best $100 spent in awhile. I could have opened up the game and mucked around with the battery, but I'm lazy.

  4. Is this news? on Linux beats Windows to Intel iMac · · Score: 0, Troll

    Windows doesn't run on sun hardware (sparc) either. Linux is known to run on multiple chipsets. So seriously is this news? Sounds more like the linux crowd patting itself on its back again.

  5. Call for Violence? on Danish, Western Websites Under Attack · · Score: 1

    I'm sorry but that cartoon *is* making sense if people are killing each other over freedom of expression. I wish I owned a newspaper so I could reprint it.

  6. This is Cross Site Scripting on Details of the LiveJournal Account Hacks · · Score: 5, Informative

    I've written an FAQ on this type of attack which can be found below.
    The Cross Site Scripting FAQ

  7. So do this mean on Women Now Outnumber Men Online · · Score: 1

    Porn seems to be a primary use for the internet so does this mean more women are looking at porn then men?

  8. MirrorMask Show in Atlanta on Gaiman and Whedon Discuss the Rise of the Geek · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Atlanta has a showing of mirrormask for 1 week only. The artist of mirrormask also does the sandman covers.

  9. AJAX Security on Better Web Apps With Ajax · · Score: 1
  10. In other news Jeremy D. Zawodny fired on Is Yahoo Actively Supporting Adware? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Google's fired people for comments about the company, will yahoo?

  11. Re:Once again Linux enters QA 101 on New Tool to Track Kernel Testing Time · · Score: 1

    Being able to track manual and automated test execution is part of *standard* QA. Tracking 'expected' test execution and actual test execution is also the job of an organized mature QA department. Perhaps if you had a worked in an organized company you'd know this. As always 'Anonymous Coward Who Can't use Their Own account for Fear of it being tracked back to them' it's been great talking with you.

  12. Once again Linux enters QA 101 on New Tool to Track Kernel Testing Time · · Score: 0, Troll

    It amazes me that such a widely used product takes 10 years to implement Quality Assurance 101. I can hear the headlines now

    "Linux Kernel team introduces Requirement to defect tracking".

  13. I'm a BSD user but I have to say... on OpenBSD's Alpha Support In Trouble · · Score: 1

    OpenBSD Alpha is dying!

  14. The Cross Site Scripting FAQ on Apache Request Smuggling Vulnerability Found · · Score: 2, Informative
  15. "BSD people are perfectionists" on Comparing Linux and BSD, Diplomatically · · Score: 3, Interesting

    "The BSD people (and keep in mind that I'm obviously generalizing) are often perfectionists. They hone something specific for a long time, and then they frown on anything that doesn't meet their standards of perfection. The OpenBSD single-minded focus on security is a good example." - linus So what he's saying is bsd people don't release as much buggy code. I'll have to agree with him here with the bimonthly linux kernel security vulnerabilities creeping up. 2 years and no 'root level' exploit in freebsd's kernel.....

  16. Comparing Windows and Linux 'By Bill gates' on Comparing Linux and BSD, Diplomatically · · Score: 1

    Seriously couldn't they have interviewed gartner or someone (not to say gartner is great) who has enough knowledge to answer this question without being on the development team of one of the products?

  17. Robotics, the new "Bubble"? on Robots Put on Show at World Robot Expo in Japan · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Within the next 10 years or so we'll start to see a big boom in R&D in countries like India and China with Technologies relating to computer systems. America will soon find itself 'competing' agressively with these countries due to the low costs of running a buisness. For the past few years robotics have agressively developed and will probably end up being the next 'big thing'. Of course the US will jump on board. Could this be the next 'Bubble'?

  18. Anatomy of the Web Application Worm on Schneier on Attack Trends: More Complex Worms · · Score: 5, Informative

    For those wondering about other advances/predictions in worms check out this paper I wrote a few years ago.

  19. Linux enters the world of QA 101! on Linux Kernel Gets Fully Automated Test · · Score: 1

    Years later and finally it is getting some *basic* QA testing done! What will they think of next!

  20. Original Book Title on Google Hacking for Penetration Testers · · Score: 1

    'How to be malicious with search engines'. BTW this is nothing new. Google '1997 Simple Nomad hack faq' which explains using search engines (at the time altavista) to do exactly what this 'groundbreaking book' says!

  21. Re:Testing - The Anti Quality Process on QA != Testing · · Score: 1

    If it only works in IE then obviously it wasn't QA'd properly and we shouldn't bother visiting your link since the person can't even get something as simple as a web page tested properly.

  22. Click fraud example on Newsweek On Click Fraud, Search Engine Response · · Score: 0, Troll

    Step 1 setup a website Step 2 click on the link Example: Go to www.cgisecurity.com and click on the banners! Step 3 gain karma on slashdot :p

  23. God on What Do You Believe Even If You Can't Prove It? · · Score: 1

    That is all.

  24. Now that this is invented on James Bond Peelable Automobile Paint · · Score: 1

    I can put it on my car, take off the license plate, rob a few banks, and peel it off 5 minutes later with no worries of the cops looking for a 'red' car of the same make and model as mine.

  25. FP? on Going, Going, Gone: IBM Sells PC Group To Lenovo · · Score: -1, Troll

    yes that's right, mod me down.
