Small Businesses Should Bank Securely â And That Means Linux: WashPo
,----[ Quote ]
| Bill Gates isnât going to like this one
| bit.
|
| Small business owners should boot their
| Windows computers into Linux, according to
| Washington Post columnist Brian Krebs, if
| they want to bank online without risk of
| someone stealing their banking password,
| and shortly after that, their money.
| Assertions like that must sting Microsoft,
| especially considering the emphasis it
| placed on security during the launch of its
| Vista operating system.

Convert any computer to a virtual machine with Linux and Clonezilla
,----[ Quote ]
| Last week Microsoft released Disk2VHD, a
| utility produced by its Sysinternals
| acquisition to convert a physical Windows
| hard disk into a Virtual PC disk image.
| While handy, Microsoft is treading ground
| Linux already covered in the form of open
| source program Clonezilla, which handles a
| far richer variety of disk formats and
| platforms.

Microsoft Says No TCP/IP Patches For XP
,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft says it won't patch Windows XP for a pair of bugs it quashed
| Sept. 8 in Vista, Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008. The news
| adds Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) and SP3 to the no-patch list that
| previously included only Windows 2000 Server SP4. 'We're talking about code
| that is 12 to 15 years old in its origin, so backporting that level of code
| is essentially not feasible,' said security program manager Adrian Stone
| during Microsoft's monthly post-patch Webcast, referring to Windows 2000
| and XP.
