Manual", where both employees were told that they would be more intelligent and his personal life would improve drastically. Godelman filed a
complaint with the Los Angeles Superior Court, stating that Scientology training was a condition of employment, and their refusal to take part in the

21.12.2008America to crack down on blogger payola
US regulators are to crack down on bloggers who fail to disclose money or gifts received from companies when reviewing their products. In the new
policy from the Federal Trade Commission, offending bloggers could eventually face fines of up to $11,000 (£6,900) per violation, according
to the BBC. So-called payola schemes have increased in recent years, with marketers realising the potential of encouraging bloggers and forum
contributors to produce reviews or testimonials on their products in exchange for money of freebies. Although the guidelines released by the FTC are
not binding by law, they are interpretations of the law that hope to help advertisers comply with regulations, such as those on disclosing
endorsements.

09.12.2006Google can crack passwords
A clever bloke into security research at the University of Cambridge computer lab wrote in his bog last Friday that he's discovered Google works
as a password MD5 hash cracker. Someone had hacked into his bogsite a few weeks ago and created a user account. After he quickly disabled the rogue
account, Steven J. Murdoch did some forensics work -- he's doing academic security research, remember -- and thought to figure out the
attacker's password.
Since his blogsite uses Wordpress, which stores passwords as unsalted MD5 hashes in its user database, he tried a
dictionary attack. That didn't find any match, even with numbers added to the ends of words. He then used a Russian dictionary, because shell code
that had been installed by the attacker had Russian in the comments. No word matchup there, either.
Murdoch writes that he could have found
or written a better password cracker. He could have varied the case of letters, added symbols to the mix, or used common substitutions of numbers for
letters, but he didn't want to spend more time. Instead, he turned to Google. He plugged the raw MD5 hash of the attacker's password into a
Google search and, voila, Google found him some matches.

23.11.2007Even with Vista SP1, Hackers Still Crack WGA
The fact that Microsoft has relaxed its antipiracy mechanism built into Windows Vista concomitantly with the release of Service Pack 1 failed
to stop hackers from providing a crack for the latest version of Windows Genuine Advantage Validation. Various reports point out that Genuine
Advantage Validation and Notifications versions 1.7.69.1 (1.7.0069.1) and 1.7.69.2 released in March 2008, following the March 18 availability of
Windows Vista SP1 through Windows Update and the Microsoft Download Center, have been cracked.
The workaround is designed to be integrated
with pirated copies of Windows XP and Windows Vista in order to render useless the WGA Validation mechanism. According to the reports, applying the
WGA crack will permit users of counterfeit versions of Windows to access and download items from Windows Update, Microsoft Download Center and
Microsoft Update. The pirated operating systems with the cracked WGA will pass all validations on Microsoft's websites and offer anything from
updates to applications that are restricted to users of genuine operating systems only.

Potential pirates, not Vista, get cracked
35 days before Windows XP was
officially released, a pirated
key, called the "devils0wn",
began circulating around the
web which allowed users to run
a pirated copy of the
operating system. Since then,
the key has been used
thousands of times and is now
a part of Windows XP history.
Trying to follow in
devils0wn's footsteps, a new
crack for Windows Vista is
rumored to have become
available. Called "Windows
Vista All Versions Activation
21.11.06", the key reportedly
unlocks any version of Vista.
Sounds great for pirates,
right? Maybe it is, depending
where you stand on software
piracy.
Those who
download "Windows Vista All
Versions Activation 21.11.06"
will end up with anything but
a cracked version of Vista.
The file is neither a crack
nor key generator, but it is a
trojan installer that installs
the malware known as
"Trojan-PSW.Win32.LdPinch.aze
." According to APC Magazine,
most antivirus scanners will
recognize the trojan, but
NOD32 and Norton's latest
signatures do not.
While most of us dread the
thought of a new piece of
malware in the wild, it's
hard not to like the motive
behind this trojan.
Nevertheless, any propagation
of malware is a bad thing so
I'm happy to hear that most
scanners can stop this one.

WPA is going the way of WEP, cracked in 15 minutes flat
According to PC World the days of securing your WIFI network using Wi-Fi Protected Access
(WPA) may be over, as researcher Erik Tews will show how he was able to crack WPA encryption in around 15 minutes at a the Tokyo PacSec Conference in two weeks time.
WPA was designed to overcome the insecurities in
hacked Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) which can be hacked in a few minutes using a modern laptop.
Erik Tews will be demonstrating how he
cracked the WPA encryption to read the data being sent from a router to a laptop.
To read the data being sent Tews found a way to crack
the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) key without resorting to using a dictionary attack which, security experts have agreed that the protocol
might be vulnerable too.
Although this is a big step Tews was still unable to crack the keys used to encrypt the data being sent back to the
router from the laptop.
If the demonstration lives up to its headline then the days of WPA look to be numbered. This would come as a big
blow to both consumers and corporations alike.
WPA is the most common standard of encryption in uses but, there is also a newer more
secure standard WPA2, (which uses Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and is unaffected), although support is still patchy. Consumer may find they are
forced to still rely on the now unsecure WPA encryption to connect their devices to the network.
For Business this is even bigger headache.
The TJ Maxx chain had hundreds of millions of customer details stolen due in part to the fact that they were still using the cracked WEP standard.
It’s easy to see a situation where hackers may try to do the same using WPA forcing corporate users to VPN or WPA2 dumping devices that
can’t support these protocols.

Microscope-wielding boffins crack Tube smartcard
Security researchers say they've found a way to crack the encryption used to protect a widely-used smartcard in a matter of minutes, making it
possible for them to quickly and cheaply clone the cards that are used to secure office buildings and automate the collection of mass transportation
fares.
The attack works against the Mifare Classic, a wireless card made by Netherlands-based NXP Semiconductors. It is used by
transit operators in London, Boston and the Netherlands and by organizations in the public and private sectors to control access to sensitive areas,
according to Karsten Nohl, a PhD candidate at the University of Virginia and one of the cryptographers who discovered the weakness. NXP says it's
sold 1 billion to 2 billion of the cards.

Microsoft on Messenger for the Mac: it ain't dead!
Scott McNulty: Our good friends in Redmond dropped us a note concerning Messenger for the Mac's future (based on this post). The Mac BU wants all Mac users to rest assured that Messenger for the Mac 6.0 will be included with Microsoft Office
2008 for the Mac. Not only is Messenger for the Mac 6.0 alive and well, the Mac BU's crack team of coders are hard at work on Messenger for Mac 7.0
which will have long awaited audio/video capabilities (and which is soon to be released into the hands of some lucky enterprise beta participants,
mostly to test out the Office Communication Server 2007 integration).
This is welcome news to me because I use Messenger for the
