To Catch the Conficker Worm....



A new tool allows entire networks to be scanned efficiently for infection.
On April 1, a computer worm called Conficker, which has already infected millions of machines worldwide, is expected to do something bad, though no one knows exactly what. Some experts fear that an army of infected machines could be ordered to launch a coordinated attack or send out a barrage of spam. But a
tool released today could help lessen the impact by allowing big companies and institutions to quickly weed out infected machines by scanning entire networks for signs of infection.
Analysis of the Conficker worm has previously revealed that infected computers will "phone home" on April 1 to receive a new set of instructions. It is already possible to detect the worm by scanning machines individually, but this is a relatively time-consuming process. It's also possible to detect the bug by watching for outgoing communications sent across a network, but the latest version of Conficker is designed to stay silent until April 1.
Dan Kaminsky, director of penetration testing for the Seattle-based security company IOActive, helped create the new scanning tool and says that it can identify an infected machine by recognizing the way it presents itself to the wider network. This makes it quick and easy to scan for the worm remotely and does not require any special access to machines. "It's like driving through a neighborhood looking for houses with big signs on their doors," Kaminsky says.
The tool was created after Tillmann Werner and Felix Leder, members of an independent research organization called the
Honeynet Project, asked Kaminsky to review their research on Conficker. The pair had figured out that the worm changes the way a machine appears on a network. Kaminsky seized on this, suggesting that the researchers create a tool that uses this information to find infected machines. The researchers built such a tool and worked through the weekend to get it ready for broad distribution to suppliers of other security software. "Whatever vulnerability scanner a company is using, it should have support for this by the end of the day.

Tips to Solve Windows Error Messages

Tips to Solve Windows Error Messages
While working on your Windows PC you may come across several computer errors, such as
Windows XP Stop 00000001E Error and WMP.dll Error Message. These errors may occur when certain conditions on your PC are true. A few steps that you can perform to resolve such computer errors:
Free Up Disk Space
These days, despite having hard disks with a large amount storage space, it does not take long to fill it up. This happens because with the increase in disk space, the space requirements for different software programs and different types of files have also increased. Listed below are some of the tasks that you can perform to free up disk space:
Use Add or Remove Programs or a good third-party program uninstaller to uninstall unwanted programs.
Use the Disk Cleanup utility to get rid of unwanted temporary files, programs setup files, and old system restore points.
Use the Disk Defragmenter tool to consolidate fragmented files and make your data contiguous.
Remove Faulty Programs and Device Drivers
Errors, such as Windows XP Stop 00000001E error are known to occur due to problems with a device driver or program. Usually, the name of the faulty device driver or program file appears in the error message. In case this happens, you may perform one of the following tasks to resolve the error:
Use Device Manager or Add or Remove Programs (whichever applies) utility to uninstall the faulty device driver or faulty program reported in the error message.
Visit the device or program manufacturer web site to check if any updates for the software are availableif you find an update, install it to resolve the error.
Update Your System
Several software error messages, such as WMP.dll error message are displayed due to the existence of old versions of program files. To prevent errors such as these, you must always keep your operating system, software programs, and device drivers updated with the latest service packs and security releases. Windows operating systems and many programs and drivers comprise the automatic update feature. You should keep this feature enabled to ensure that the software on your system always stays updated. This will not only help prevent compatibility related errors, but also prevent infections from malware programs that are built around these security lapses.
Scan and Repair the Windows Registry
Computer problems can also occur due to registry bloating. Registry bloating occurs when a large amount of unwanted, obsolete, and invalid entries accumulate within the registry. When the registry bloats up, it becomes unstable and starts generating computer errors. To prevent computer errors due to registry problems, you must regularly scan and repair your registry. As it is difficult to perform manual scan and clean up of the complex registry files, you may use a reliable third-party registry tool to perform the task.
Scan and Remove Malware
Malware programs, such as virus, Trojans, and spyware can generate several computer problems. Two tools that are essential to combat these malicious programs are antivirus and antispyware tools. You must obtain and install these tools on your computer. Additionally, always keep the tools updated with the latest virus database and schedule them to perform full system scans on a regular basis to ensure that your PC remains free of malicious information at all times.

Intel’s smallest, tiniest, low-power processors called ‘Atom’

Intels just officially announced its smallest and tiniest processor the Atom which is formerly codenamed Diamondville & Silverthorne.
The chip will also be available as part of the Centrino Atom platform (codenamed Menlow), which will be the Intel Atom processor, a low-power companion chip with integrated graphics, a wireless radio & thinner& lighter designs.
The Intel Atom processor is based on an entirely new microarchitecture designed specifically for small devices and low power, while maintaining the Intel Core 2 Duo instruction set compatibility consumers are accustomed to when using a standard PC and the Internet. The design also includes support for multiple threads for better performance and increased system responsiveness. All of this on a chip that measures less than 25 mm, making it Intels smallest and lowest power processor yet. Up to 11 Intel Atom processor die the tiny slivers of silicon packed with 47 million transistors each would fit in an area the size of an American penny.
These new chips, previously codenamed Silverthorne and Diamondville, will be manufactured on Intels industry-leading 45nm process with hi-k metal gate technology. The chips have a thermal design power (TDP) specification in 0.6-2.5 watt range and scale to 1.8GHz speeds depending on customer need. By comparison, todays mainstream mobile Core 2 Duo processors have a TDP in the 35-watt range.
They will probably be a lot smaller & cuter, similar to the Zonbu desktop PC & they might finally make their way closer & closer to the living room.
