Rootkit Takes Aim at AOL "Security researchers have identified a rootkit being spread through AOL's popular instant messaging client and AOL chat rooms. Bundled within the previously identified W32/Sdbot-ADD worm, the lockx.exe rootkit file is installed when users click on the file link within the IM window. Though neither the worm nor the rootkit file are new, it appears to be the worm's first foray into the AIM (AOL's Instant Messenger) network. What's more troubling is that rootkits haven't previously been spread via IM." This is a NASTY one, so make sure you update the AIM client if you use it!!!

ATI x16 vs x8 Performance "A couple of weeks back we looked at the performance of the nForce x16 chipset by plugging a couple of 7800GTX cards in SLI mode and finding out how much extra performance we could gain by having two dedicated PCI-E x16 lanes instead of one that’s split into two X8 lanes. The results were disappointing with only one game, Quake4, showing any performance gains. Now with ATI’s Xpress 3200 Northbridge officially launched, we figured its only fair to put ATI to the same test and thus today, we will show the performance difference between two X1900XT cards under the older ATI RD480 chipset which has two PCI-E x8 lanes and the newer ATI Xpress…

AMD surpasses Intel in U.S. retail stores "Intel agreed in March to recommendations issued by the Fair Trade Commission in Japan, which called on Intel to halt the practice of requiring PC makers to limit the use of competitors' chips in order to receive monetary rebates. In June, the Korea Fair Trade Commission requested documents relating to the marketing and rebate programs of an Intel foreign subsidiary. And in July, the European Commission raided Intel offices as part of an antitrust investigation."

Alien search merges with other home projects As of Dec 15, 2005, the original SETIatHome has shut down. Now you have to use the BOINC software to run SETI, and/or many other projects, like Climateprediction. I managed to stay in the top .1% of the original SETIatHome project. Be nice to see the final stats when they published.

NASA's drunken astronaut report released "Interviews with both flight surgeons and astronauts identified some episodes of heavy use of alcohol by astronauts in the immediate preflight period, which has led to flight safety concerns. Alcohol is freely used in crew quarters. Two specific instances were described where astronauts had been so intoxicated prior to flight that flight surgeons and/or fellow astronauts raised concerns to local on-scene leadership regarding flight safety. However, the individuals were still permitted to fly."

Tenomichi 3D Edit Review "Like Pinnacle Liquid Edition, Tenomichi’s software harnesses the power of the system’s 3D graphics accelerator. But it does so at a much more fundamental level. In particular, it takes advantage of the power of DirectX 9 Shaders. These are algorithms that use the pixel-shader units in the graphics processors in modern graphics cards - designed to accelerate image processing. The latest graphics chips from ATI and Nvidia have 16 of these units, so it’s theoretically possible to render a lot of video effects at once. But Tenomichi has gone one step further. Not only is DirectX 9 3D acceleration used to power the rendering of effects, it’s …
