(2005-12-30) — In a recently-leaked secret memo, written in October 2005, President George Bush authorized the National Security Agency (NSA) to “employ all of its tools and skills” to enhance the security of Microsoft Windows XP.

Existence of the highly-classified covert program, revealed in a frontpage New York Times story, could not be verified yesterday as Microsoft announced it had discovered yet another serious flaw in the code of its flagship XP operating system.

A White House spokesman today would not confirm or deny existence of the secret NSA program, dubbed Operation Patchwork Quilt, but reiterated that “the president believes history will judge him on how well he protected the American people from all enemies, foreign and domestic.”

Microsoft has not yet issued a patch for the latest vulnerability — a hole that hackers can exploit to infect a PC with spyware, adware or a malicious stomach virus.

About 90 percent of Americans use the Windows operating system and other Microsoft products — despite the free availability of reliable, easy-to-use alternative systems, office productivity suites and internet browsers — because they want to do their part to help Microsoft Philanthropist Bill Gates fight tropical diseases in foreign lands.

Does your desktop look like this?

1 - Well since you have windows - use the recovery - Go back a day
note: “you could lose some data” - you do have to reboot
Start - All Programs - Accessories - System Tools - System Restore
“I will let you figure out how to use it” I would go back at least a day

2 - Install a virus scanner - to pick up some of the backdoor crap on your pc.
I would use : AVG - hell its free

3 - Scan your pc

4 - Wow - that took a while - Next d/l counter spy

http://www.sunbelt-software.com/CounterSpy.cfm

“15 day - free trial” Make sure you update it first then scan

5 - Scan with Counter Spy - Remove all the crap it finds

6 - Download Spybot http://www.safer-networking.org/en/mirrors/index.html its free too

7 - Open Spybot - Run the update first then shut it down. DON’T SCAN YET

8 - Reboot your pc in safe mode - thats F8 when booting - I would use with network support.

9 - Ok now that you are in safe mode - Run spybot and do a scan.
remove all the SurfSideKick and CoolWWWSearch crap.

10 - ok lets not let this happen again so… click start run :
type REGSVR32 /U SHIMGVW.DLL this will stop the flaw in the os

11 - you are done for now. Look for more MS updates and new dats

Dear Maglite.com Visitor:

Thank you for your interest in Mag Instrument and its products. We are pleased to report that Mag will soon be adding MAG-LEDâ„¢ flashlights to its product line.

If these products have been a long time coming, it’s because the MAG-LEDâ„¢ Technology has taken a long time to develop to the point where it is feasible to make an LED flashlight that meets Mag Instrument’s high standards of quality, durability, style and function.

Now, after years of research & development, testing and refinement, Mag Instrument is committed to introducing, in early 2006, a line of MAG-LEDâ„¢ flashlights. Like Mag’s incandescent-lamp flashlights, these newest members of the Maglite® flashlight family will have the style, performance, benefits and features that both professionals and consumers have come to expect from a Maglite® flashlight, including the fact that they are built for a lifetime of service. The Maglite® design tradition will be instantly recognizable in them, and they will offer the beam-focusing capability that has always been a feature of Mag® flashlights, AND MORE!

Again, thank you for your interest in Mag Instrument and its products. We look forward to the rollout of the MAG-LEDâ„¢ flashlights in the near future.

Sincerely,
The Maglite Team

It is about time!
