When the total eclipse throws the planet into darkness...
No, no - I love "Heroes" TV series too, but today we talk about another eclipse. I can't say why Eclipse Foundation chose exactly this name. But it doesn't matter. It is tmportant that in November 2001, Borland, IBM, MERANT, QNX Software Systems, Rational Software, Red Hat, and SuSE founded a corporate consortium named Eclipse, and later, in early 2004, they reorganized it into a nonprofit organization - Eclipse Foundation.

On July 22, 2010 in the magazine «NewScientist» was published Note , which reported that, according to published on the Dell Forum Trojan Worm.Win32.Spybot was found in a flash memory of a motherboard. This board is included in PowerEdge R310, PowerEdge R410, PowerEdge R510 and PowerEdge T410 Dell servers. The worm payload was in spreading through peer-to-peer networks and instant messaging clients. Given the fact that the worm is run under Windows, it can be neutralized by anti-virus software, but removing the worm's code from the flash memory of the motherboard is unlikely to force by a normal virus scanner. The company has already announced that it will urgently replaces all infected boards of servers.

It is a calm quiet evening. You are reviewing your favorite film at the computer. And small icons of network activity in the tray attract your attention:
It is strange... May be a browser? It is closed. A favorite messenger? It is off. Maybe the operating system have been updating? But it is not — Update Service icon is located in the same taskbar notification area.

Today we continue the story of malicious software running under Linux. At this time we will discuss the heavy artillery - IDA Pro. This indispensable tool has the ability to debug programs running under Windows, Linux and Mac OS. We will mention Mac OS next time, but now we use familiar Virtual Machine VirtualBox running Ubuntu 10.04 on board as an experimental platform.

It is believed that the number of malicious files under a specific platform primarily depends on the popularity of this platform. This is often explained by the fact that there are hundreds of thousands of malware for Windows and very few for Linux. But the time goes on and Linux becomes more popular. There are more and more messages in the news that another large organization or even some municipal service started using Linux. Probably, the era of viruses running under this operating system is coming soon too. A reasonable question appeared: "Are we ready for this?" There are many excellent tools to deal with malware running under Windows: RootKit Unhooker, FileMon, RegMon, ProcessExplorer, GMER... The enumeration may last too long. But how many of these utilities do you know for Linux? And how many of them did you use at least once? Unfortunately, despite the fact that I'm engaged in anti-virus analytics for quite a long time I haven't accumulated knowledge in this area, because it wasn't necessary for me. So, I'd like to fill this gap now.

Well, it must have a sufficient performance level to perform a set of tasks. Oh yes, there is a design. But it is impossible to measure it objectively. As regards the size and weight are clearly defined, because the manufacturers exactly indicate these parameters, but not everything is clear with a performance and a battery life.

What is the difference between a netbook and a laptop? The main thing - a netbook is smaller. Therefore a netbook’s screen area is smaller too. But modern browsers arrange this area so wastefully. A striking example is the interface of Firefox with the default settings...
