  1. Re:Kernel hooks? on Microsoft Says Recovery From Malware Becoming Impossible · · Score: 1

    I'm quite sure a lot of 'security' applications (software firewalls, anti-virus, etc.) use kernel hooking to preform their tasks.

  2. Well... on Is Caps Lock Dead? · · Score: 1

    Well... it still has more of a purpose then the scroll lock key. http://users.aol.com/elmothecow/scrollock/scroloff .htm is a good example of scroll lock's main function.

  3. I never knew how... on Apple Announces 25 Million Song Downloads · · Score: 1

    How do 'they' know what music you downloaded illegally and what music you downloaded legally.

    Say you take a nice sized collection of music from a friend and later on you download some music legaly from the program you are paying per song for. Now something happens that causes the authorities to search your computer and they see the nice collection of mp3's. How do they know you did not acquire the songs in a differnt, but legal, way

  4. ..viruses, worms, email spam.. on "Grand Challenges" in Cyber Security Risks · · Score: 1

    The conference participants identified four: eliminate epidemic-style attacks (viruses, worms, email spam) within 10 years

    Well in 10 years I'm quite positive that there will be many different and more creative ways of performing attacks, we just have to wait for the newer generations to get out of elementary school.

  5. break the internet? on UCB, USC To Build (And Hack) A Model Internet · · Score: 1

    "Berkeley engineer said they can't do experiments on the real Internet, because they can't afford to break it."

    Al Gore would not like that

  6. um? on UCB, USC To Build (And Hack) A Model Internet · · Score: 1

    How the hell would you make a 'model' of the internet. It's just a bunch of linked up servers, is it not? Hell, just run all the services on the same box and 'hack' it remotely or locally... I don't see where the 5.5 million comes into play unless they are going to make a 'model' of a big lanparty...
