Cisco Security Response: Infected Cisco Information Packet and Warranty CDs

August 8th, 2011 No comments

 

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sr-20110803-cd.shtml

In the period of December 2010 until August 2011, Cisco shipped warranty CDs that contain a reference to a third-party website known to be a malware repository. When the CD is opened with a web browser, it automatically and without warning accesses this third-party website. Additionally, on computers where the operating system is configured to automatically open inserted media, the computer’s default web browser will access the third-party site when the CD is inserted, without requiring any further action by the user.

Good bye Pre, Hello Nexus S

August 3rd, 2011 No comments

I feel bad to finally give up my Pre for a new phone.  I just couldn’t take it anymore. My Pre is an original and has been through way too much over the years.  I hacked it with the WebOS 2.1 which isn’t supposed to be on there, the screen was broken, cracked, scratched, and even had pieces of plastic flaking off from being in the sun for 15 mins.  The keyboard only worked sometimes, or would just repeat the letter “ooooooooooooo” throughout all applications.

I hope the new Google phone serves me well.  I got it for “almost” free at Best Buy Mobile because they were giving the phone away for free today (with 2 year contract and activation fees of course).  Head on over here to pick one up for yourself: bestbuy.com/mobile

Awesome password reset tool

August 3rd, 2011 No comments

If you forget your Windows password, you can download and use this tool to reset it: http://pogostick.net/~pnh/ntpasswd/

It works great, I’ve used it several times over the past few years.  It just looks a bit intimidating.  It’s all text based and very Unix-Like.
