      I haven’t vanished! Honest!

      January 24th, 2008 by AndyAtHull

      If you’re all wondering where I’ve got too or why I haven’t posted recently. Well I have been very busy with offline projects. One of which I cannot go into.

      One project I can go into was to do with Burstwick United. Our village was on high flood alert these last seven days and that took my time away being in meetings.

      Normal service may be delayed for several more days or a week. If you stick around, you may find some guest bloggers rant and rave … fun!

      Report Rogue Anti-Spyware – Forum Opened

      January 9th, 2008 by AndyAtHull

      New year and new additions. We, here at SecurityCadets, have opened another forum. After lengthy discussions between our own staff you can now report potential rogue anti-spyware in our forum.

      The world of malware is changing day by day and the hunger for money by rogue organisations is increasing. Rogue software is part of the internet now whether we approve or not. But we can do something about this. Make sure new ones are added quicker to right removal tools. Try and make sure we squeeze the money trail and report rogues before they hit the wild.

      Don’t get me wrong, you can report things like this already at many places. This is nothing new we are doing here, but we are making the possibilities for reporting bigger and easier.

      Our report forum is located here. You’ll have to register to post for security matters. Please also read the pinned topics for general info. All samples or reports will then be dealt with and passed on to the relevant personnel.

      Tell you neighbour and their neighbour. E-mail this to your friends. Let’s make this happen

      Will Nugache be bigger than Storm?

      January 8th, 2008 by AndyAtHull

      Experts are starting to believe Nugache will be more of a threat than the Storm worms!

      “The infamous Storm worm may be perceived as the world’s most dangerous botnet, but security experts say a worm called Nugache could be more of a threat…hackers…gave Nugache a facelift, copying many of the successful attributes of Storm, such as encryption, a rootkit and the ability to spread as web-borne malware…One way it has been seen spreading is through URLs embedded by attackers in blogs…”

      According to pcadvisor.co.uk. What do you think? I think it will never be over and there will always something different and worse than the previous piece of junk. Tell us what you think here.
