GRRRRR! The Desktop Security Software site was hacked on 4th October 2010 at 07:53. Not completely sure how yet – suspect some sort of WordPress hack attack. php entries were added to re-direct to a rogue site heavy with malware that created pop-up’s alleging virus’s on the machine in use. And no doubt a massive [...] - UFOs Real or Not?
Real UFOs? Probably Not - - Hackers in the Movies … Not!

This video from panda labs show how easy it is for the bad guys to tag malware or a virus on to legitimate (but cracked/pirated) software that is then often released on P2P networks for download. How cyber criminals infect victims via P2P with pirated software from Panda Security on Vimeo.

| Written by Administrator | | Saturday, 14 May 2011 14:57 |  From the PreyProject website:
Prey lets you keep track of your phone or laptop at all times, and will help you find it if it ever gets lost or stolen. It's lightweight, open source software, and free for anyone to use. And it just works. There is a great story here about a Prey user tracking his stolen laptop across town from thousands of miles away. Essentially you install Prey and it runs with a low impact memory footprint (for Windows users - in the background for a logged in user) and checks periodically that a trigger URL (that you own) is still in place. If your laptop is lost or stolen, then remove the URL (say delete a blog post or any URL you control), Prey then uses this as a trigger to start reporting its (the laptops) position to you and can take pictures through the web cam. Hopefully, the information that is relayed back to you will enable you to recover the laptop. Pretty cool .... works on android phones too (an SMS triggers the reports) with an iPhone version under development. | | Last Updated on Saturday, 14 May 2011 15:28 |

| Written by Administrator | | Wednesday, 13 October 2010 11:50 |  A new anti-logger software is now on the market (there is a free cut down version for personal only use).
This could rival the "Zemana Anti-Logger" we've already tested. Read that review here - Zemana Antilogger SpyShelter is 'signature free', in that it doesn't rely on identifying patterns within rogue software (like most anti-virus software does) to prevent data loss. However, we've noticed there has been a new release of the software every week for the last 3 weeks - so whilst you may not have to depend on signature downloads to keep this software valid, it still appears to require some minor effort to keep the software itself current. This could of course just be that the software is relatively new, that updates are frequent at the time of writing. (we also noticed this behaviour with Zemana). | | Last Updated on Wednesday, 13 October 2010 12:15 | | Read more... |

In contrast to a lot of these types of utilities, this encryption software is especially easy to use. Within minutes we had selected some files and encrypted them securely. Then it was simple to encrypt email text and attach the file we'd just encrypted and send off as usual. The receivers of the email don't even need QuickCrypto on their system to decrypt the email text (though they will to decrypt the file - though this is OK as a fully functional free trial is available. This software also seems to have many other features; it can recover files and prevent the recovery of files (securely shred files)! It can also remove internet traces (browser privacy), hide files and text in images and sounds (steganography) and much more. We thought it was great! The file encryption was the most straight-forward we've seen and very quick ... QuickCrypto indeed. | | Last Updated on Sunday, 17 April 2011 19:04 |
| Written by Administrator | | Sunday, 12 September 2010 16:15 |  Hide text in images quickly and easily.
QuickStego is a handy, easy to use tool specially designed to help you hide text in pictures so that only other users of QuickStego can retrieve and read the hidden secret messages. Once text is hidden in an image the saved picture is still a 'picture', it will load just like any other image and appear as it did before. The image can be saved, emailed, uploaded to the web as before, the only difference will be that it contains hidden text.
