Koobface: The saga continues
2009-08-14 00:49:00 The gang behind the Koobface worm has been hard at work in releasing the next iteration of their worm. We've already identified over 60 active domains spreading the content through the usual method of posting a message linking to a "CooooL Video" on Facebook. Sample malspam: After clicking the link, the victims are automatically redirected to a Koobface controlled server, which then routes the them off to a fake codec site specifically designed for the social network they came from. Fake codec site: The Koobface gang uses the same old "Flash Player upgrade required" tactic to trick users into opening the executable, which then ultimately transforms their machine into a distribution point for the infection to further propagate. Koobface connection log: On infection, the Koobface worm immediately attempts to download three additional exectuable files. After turning the victims computer into its next distribution point, it also attempts to monetize by...

Worm Farming
2009-02-23 13:07:00 Yep, I said it. Worm Farming. I've been reading various gardening books from the local library in preparation for spring. This spring Dan and I are getting a community garden plot. A 25' x 30' patch of land where we can grow vegetables, herbs, and flowers May through October. I've always wanted to compost, but its tough when you live in an apartment. Vermicompost (or worm farming) seems to be the ideal solution.We'll start with a half pound of red worms (a.k.a. Red Wrigglers or Eisenia foetida) in an aerated bin. I'm using a 10 gallon rubber made tub with a bunch of 1/8" holes drilled into it (mostly on the top and bottom). I've lined the bottom with moist cardboard, shredded newspaper, and some old soil. I'll be keeping old food scraps (veggies, fruits, coffee grounds, tea bags, rinsed egg shells... NOT meat or dairy because those attract rodents and pests) in a used coffee can under the sink. Once a week or so I'll feed the scraps to the worms and make sure to k...

Low-cost Strategy Developed for Curbing Computer Worms
2009-01-26 01:12:00 Thanks to an ingenious new strategy devised by researchers at the University of California, Davis, and Intel Corporation, computer network administrators might soon be able to mount effective, low-cost defenses against self-propagating infectious programs known as worms.Many computers are already equipped with software that can detect when another computer is attempting to attack it. Yet the software usually cannot identify newly minted worms that do not share features with earlier marauders. When network managers detect suspicious activity, they face a major dilemma, said Senthil Cheetancheri, who led efforts to develop the strategy. ?The question is, ?Should I shut down the network and risk losing business for a couple of hours for what could be a false alarm, or should I keep it running and risk getting infected???Cheetancheri, a graduate student in the Computer Security Laboratory at UC Davis when he did the work, has shown that the conundrum can be overcome by enabling computer...

Avoid USB devices Virus / Worms
2008-03-21 06:38:00 This is the major query i saw in our forum , USB Devices like i-pod,pen drives e.t.c; brings viruses/worms which are bad since it disables a lot of features as well as it ruins memory the slows down the whole thing. It disables much of the removal process like Windows RegEdit.exe, MsConfig.exe and also TaskMan.exe. Variations of these also disables your keyboard during normal booting, floods your disk with virus files in the root directory and also the windows directory and some also floods your directory with Folder looking icons that is an executable..So heres my tip in avoiding this:1st: Always make all files visible like system and also hidden files with their extension shown.Go to Windows Explorer > Tools > Folder Option > View* Enable Show Hidden File* Disable Hide Extensions for know file type* Disable Hide Protected OS files.2nd: Never Use the Autorun functionality in Windowswhenever you put a disk(flash, memory card, usb drive devices and other form of removable drive) it i...

Glass Tulips- Huge Worms Found in Antarctica -Photos
2008-02-23 16:21:00 Standing in fields like poppies these tunicates are actually animals. The tunicates, which resemble glass tulips, are early colonizers of Antarctic regions that have been disturbed by icebergs that scour the seafloor as they pass by. The animals are among many mysterious creatures collected from the icy waters by scientists of the Australian Antarctic Division.(Watch video of sea spiders found on the expedition, and read the full story.) The study is part of an international project to take a census of Antarctic marine life. The plankton-eating tunicates grow up to 3.2 feet (1 meter) long, and filter food by pumping it through an internal mesh structure. The stalk is supported by pressure created by their pump, according to the scientistsSea Spiders and Glass Tulips-latest footage from Antarctica

It use different ways of deceiving users to actually accept the infection or even install it on their computers.

Worms Have More Backbone than MSNBC!
2008-02-12 06:01:00 MSNBC EXECUTIVES SHOWING OFF THEIR SPINESMSNBC or more accurately, the Major Spineless division of NBC News has struck yet again. Not with an iron fist, but with a silk swipe of their pink velvet gloves by indefinitely suspending one of their, if not finest, reporters David Shuster, late last week. MSNBC has once again adopted the philosophy that when you consistently place third in a three pony race, it is more advantageous to lose with your nose firmly planted in the posterior of number two, than believing in and supporting your people to stand tall and tell the truth. The suspension of Shuster once again demonstrates how gutless appeasement and capitulation trump courage and support in how MSNBC backs their on air personnel. Shuster is just the latest example of how a pathetic cable news outlet places more stock in poltical correctness than correctness itself.If you're not familiar with the reasoning behind Shuster's unscheduled and unpaid vacation, it involved the Clinton Fami...
