High-level languages were developed to enable computer user to concentrate on designing appropriate algorithms for solving problems instead of being concerned with the details of computers internal structure.

Since Blaster/Slammer, namely since the start of Trustworthy Computing I am working at Microsoft in a publically facing security role. I went through all the blaming and had to take all the heat of what we did wrong and how bad we are – and I admitted there and still do today that security was not a priority for Microsoft back then (and if you quote me, please quote the whole sentenceJ). However, we changed dramatically and I am convinced that Microsoft is one of the few companies of such a size having the capability to change within the timeframe we did and the change will go on.
When I did my first presentation on Trustworthy Computing, I stated publically that this is an industry initiative and not a "Microsoft only thing" – and the people laughed at me. They told me that Microsoft is THE problem and that we will never change. When I looked at the figures of e.g. vulnerabilities back then, we saw from the beginning that we were much better than everybody else but have been the b

WhatsOpen’s secret project has been getting so many people talking on the internet, and these shots of the application will only intensify this further. The question is, are these screenshots really the app that is destined for the Googlephone?

As this project is in early stage their site is still under development but Live CD ISO image is already available here. Seems to be very interesting…

Microsoft's current release is Windows Mobile 6, internally code-named "Crossbow'". It was officially released by Microsoft on February 12, 2007 and Microsoft has promised that it will work seamlessly with Windows Vista.Windows Mobile 5.0 marked the convergence of the Phone Edition and Professional Edition operating systems into one system that contains both phone and PDA capabilities. A 'Phone' application was included in the OS, and all PIM applications were updated to interface with it. Windows Mobile 5.0 was compatible with Microsoft's Smartphone operating system and was capable of running Smartphone applications.Pocket PCs running previous versions of the operating system generally stored user-installed applications and data in RAM, which meant that if the battery was depleted the dev
After many-month delay the new operating system for the computers of Apple appears on Friday, 26. Oct.! Mac OS X „Leopard“ offers among other things a new graphic surface, a simplified solution for data protection and the integration of a technology for the parallel installation of Windows.„Leopard“ is the sixth larger update since the introduction of Mac OS X, which connects a Unix core with the Apple diagram. It should originally already appear in June. The date was shifted because of the development of the mobile phone iPhone.The successor of Mac OS X „tigers“ is available worldwide at 26. October, as the enterprise communicated on Tuesday.
No Windows NT is not so, because its not implemented in object oriented language and the data structures reside within one executive component and are not represented as objects and it does not support object oriented capabilities .

Have you ever wondered which operating system is running for example your friends domain? If you are running Linux at home, it is very easy to find out. Use this script in your Linux terminal:
FILE=results.csv
for SITE in www.bross.eu www.oliver.bz
do
echo -n “$SITE,” >> $FILE
# Check port 79 and 80 (one closed, one open) cut out the application and OS
# results and create a nice, comma separated version to show mom
sudo nmap -A -O -P0 -p 79-80 $SITE | grep -Eo ‘^80.*|OS guesses.*’ | sed ’s/,/ or /g’
| tr ‘
’ ‘,’ | sed -e ’s/80/tcp open *http *//’ -e ’s/OS guesses: //’ >> $FILE
echo >> $FILE
done
Of course, replace www.bross.eu and www.oliver.bz with domain/s you would like to find out which operating system and web server is that particular domain running. You can even add more domains, after that, just check results.csv file created by the script. It’s easy as that. Enjoy!
Apple, after being beaten and almost choked to death by Microsoft, Apple has unleashed what I like to call the “Mac Attack”. The Mac Attack fueled by Ipod sales, is attempting to convert Windows users by offering ease of use, aesthetic appeal and security. Hackers have been merciless with Windows during it history, Macs on the other hand have not yet suffered from these problems. Mac claims that it does not get hacked because Mac has better code, Windows and Linux users claim that Mac doesn’t get hacked because its worldwide Market share is only 2%.
Apple having founder Steve Jobs return to the company has started propaganda warfare. Its Commercial “Get a Mac” features Justin Long as the cool young Mac and John Hodgeman as the older more businesslike or “Square” PC. Get a Mac has been very effective in the United States convincing 5% of the population to purchase.

Did the Google operating system finally come into being ? Was it made to compete with the Microsoft's Vista OS ? Did Yahoo also make an operating system ? And browsers !!! (Ok - browsers I can believe)Making a complete operating system to compete with Windows XP and even Vista ( and who knows - even with Mac Os X and Linux) was one of the rumours going around the Google gossip stream. And this image from a visitor statistics tool suddenly made me think they were already out. In the frenzied moment of panic (?), I realized that these were just the bots- Googlebot and Yahoobot (Inktomi bot, I guess)So, is the Google OS really out there ? Is it coming ? Well, I guess we'll all be waiting ...Google is taking over the Earth and we know it. We know that the Google OS will come. The Google browser first, then the Yahoo browser, finally the OS.Hey, is Google gonna buy Firefox ? That'll make it a Google browser , would it not ?We'll just wait and see ....
No not Vista. The new one they’re developing right now where they learn from all of the mistakes they made when doing Vista. Bet they take out loads of frilly stuff and try and return to a robust o/s specialising in file handling and security only. Imagine, an o/s that works.Â
Seems that Vista can go to manufacturing provided there are no more than 500 outstanding defects. So guess what we’ll be doing for the next year to 18 months, discovering these defects. No doubt Vista SP1, probably due January 2008, will cure a lot of these ills and raise some more in case we get defect withdrawal symptons.
