Ubuntu 10.04 is here!
Why do we recommend Ubuntu to all users? The current version of Ubuntu is 10.04 codenamed Lucid Lynx. This an LTS version. LTS stands for Long Term Support which means that it will be supported for 3 years for the desktop and 5 years for the server version. So NOW is the best time to jump on board!If you want a disk we'll be happy to run one off for you for free or you can download it directly from the ubuntu website and burn it yourself.
Get rid of Internet Explorer!
China has released the world's most advanced virus.The virus is a three stage attack which apparently can infect users of Internet Explorer 6, 7 and 8. At this stage the damage has been limited to IE6 however.
Several companies have been attacked and the news is mostly anouncing about Google being attacked. That is the least of everyone's concerns. The most scary aspect of the new virus is that it has been used against a little-known company called Northrop Grumman. Northrop Grumman make:
- Command and control systems
- Large-scale intelligence information systems
- Missile defense systems
- Advanced radar systems
- Civil government and public safety information systems
- Conventional and nuclear powered naval ships
- Satellites for a wide variety of missions
- System sustainment, logistics support and training
- High-energy laser systems
- Health information systems
- Unmanned aerial vehicles
Other Companies to be hit by the virus include Symantec(manufacturer of Norton antivirus), Adobe and Dow chemicals. What can you do to help alleviate the situation? Well you can stop using Internet Explorer and start using Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome. I recommend them both, Chrome is fast, Firefox does everything you could possibly want. I use Firefox.
