Linux Vulnerability Report Draws Criticism

A U.S. government study that reports there were three times more software vulnerabilities in the Linux/ Unix platform than in the Windows platform during 2005 not only is drawing criticism from the open-source community but also has prompted questions from security authorities.

Cyber Security Bulletin 2005, published last week by the United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US-CERT), indicates that, out of 5,198 reported flaws, 812 were Windows vulnerabilities, 2,328 were Linux/Unix flaws, and 2,058 were multiple system vulnerabilities. Open to Interpretation In response to the report, NewsForge.com pointed out that, while many in the trade press have concluded that Windows is three times safer than Linux, the government figures are somewhat misleading.

Great finishes

Keep your office clean… stay home!!!

Be quiet in the office…
…respect the fact that others sleep!

When you get this E MAIL, send it to 1 person u love, 1 u hate, 1 u always
think of and 1 u wish to kill. Now, keep guessing why I sent it to u.

The IDEAL man does not smoke, does not drink, does not flirt, goes to bed
early, in short … does not exist

Sometime my mind asks why I miss you? Why I care for you? Why I remember
you? Then my heart answers it’s simply because mental patient needs more
care.

Like energy, love can neither be created nor destroyed. It can just be
transferred from one girlfriend to another girl friend.

And the final one…

Great people talk about ideas, average people talk about things, small
people talk about others… But legends never talk, they send E MAIL.

    The Browser Wars of 2005

    Microsoft’s Internet Explorer (IE) remains the largest stakeholder in browser market share, but it lost ground in 2005. Web browser statistics for yearend 2005 released by NetApplications.com indicate movement in browser market share for 2006.

    IE ended 2005 with an 85.05 percent market share, down from 90.31 percent in 2004. Microsoft’s decision to discontinue support for its browser on the Mac could lead to further degradation of its market share. NetApplications’ EVP of marketing and strategic relationships, Vince Vizzaccaro, said Mac users will likely migrate to Apple’s Safari browser. Microsoft is due to release an upgrade to IE this year.

    Impact of change of a job :-)

    A taxi passenger tapped the driver on the shoulder to ask him a question.

    The driver screamed, lost control of the car, nearly hit a bus, went up on the footpath, and stopped centimeters from a shop window.

    For a second everything went quiet in the cab, and then the driver said:
    “Look mate, don’t ever do that again. You scared the daylights out of me! ”

    The passenger apologized and said,
    “I didn’t realize that a little tap would scare you so much.”

    The driver replied, “Sorry, it’s not really your fault. Today is my first
    day as a cab driver I’ve been driving a van carrying dead bodies for the last 25 years !!!”
