Security holes found in PHP scripting language -Gee and it’s not even a Microsoft scripting language? Just goes to show, totally secure, bug-free stuff is not that easy!

Britney Worm warning -It’s not very widespread now, but I’m willing to bet the same idiots who were dying to get a pic of Anna are the same ones opening and running this one hoping for a glimpse of Britney.

Have iPod, Will Secretly Bootleg -Man if this really happened where a kid walked into a CompUSA with his iPod and starting copying software off the display Mac’s, computer stores have a problem!

Geocites to end FTP service for free users. Great, now I’ve got to figure out some other way to have a blog on my Child Abuse site. Like Yahoo hasn’t become enough of a pain with their non-stop invasive advertising, now this?
