Internet users are now looking for an alternative to the Internet Explorer. And Firefox is one of the favorites. Just recently Firefox 3 was released. The major improvement on this version is its anti-malware feature, which is an improvement of Firefox 2’s anti-phishing feature.A lot of people are switching browsers because they are aware that malware and spyware could probably reside in them. The browser with the best security feature is the most preferred. This is the main reason why browser makers are constantly improving and changing their codes to keep up with the times.

We see these commercials all the time for blade servers, and I get the question all the time: What are blade servers? This is a quick run down on this very interesting technology:

Blade server basics:

Definition: blade servers are part of a computer configuration where power, cooling, storage and connectivity are largely provided by an outer housing or chassis. The chassis contains and services a number of specialised, stripped down motherboard units - the blade servers - each one a complete computer or service device containing only vital processing and storage elements.

Blade server technology was initially developed in the early millennium through a partnership between IBM and Intel. Later, a number of major companies, led by IBM, formed an “industry community” in February 2006, with a website base at blade.org. The mission of the community is to “accelerate the growth and adoption of [blade] technologies in the market.”

Bluetooth is the most popular wireless file sharing technology today. It is widely adapted by cellular phones, music players, and other portable gadgets. But just recently, Symantec is asking Bluetooth users to be more aware of the commonplace the technology is fast becoming to be, as there is simply a number of security vulnerability associated to it.

Security issues such as bluejacking, bluebugging, and bluesnarfing are getting common. Most of the security breaches perpetrated using the Bluetooth technology lead to problems such as denial of service and mobile viruses, Trojans, and worms hosting. Another annoying problem Bluetooth users experience is called bluespamming. This one works very similar to email spamming.
