No no it's me... I'M not supposed to say anything... LOL

You're fine. It's declassified public information.

I have to remember protocol on my side.

*remembers a scene from FarScape*

Your side! My side! My side! Your side!

Major Sites Fall Victim to Web Hijack

Be careful out there...

Taken from pcworld.com

Security company Finjan today reported it has found more than 1,000
sites infected by an attack toolkit called "Asprox," which exploits
discovered flaws in a vulnerable site's programming to add hidden attack
code. The attack code in turn searches for flaws on a browser's PC, and
if any such holes are found it will download malware onto the computer.

I wasn't struck by the number - these days, 1,000 sites unfortunately isn't
that many - so much as by the list of sites that Finjan says were hacked.
My own city's site, which I've visited many times to pay parking tickets
and the like, was nailed (though it's now clean). Snapple took a hit, as
did the National Health Service in the UK and a wide range of other sites.


As with a previous SQL injection round I wrote about in May, you can
check to see if your site has been infected by running a Google search.
Before you do, let me repeat a warning I wrote then:

IMPORTANT: DO NOT visit the domain named in the following test, or any
sites that show up on a Web search as having this domain listed in their
pages' code (including cached pages). Doing so could infect your PC with
malware.

This time around, you'll need to run these three different searches, as the
attack is inserting different code into different sites. In each case,
substitute your site's domain (ie. Pcworld.com) for "domain."

site:yourdomain "b.js"

site:yourdomain "ngg.js"

site:yourdomain "fgg.js"

When I ran those searches just now I turned up plenty of still-infected
sites, so again, be extremely careful about visiting any of them. If your
site turns up in search results, contact your IT department or hosting
provider immediately.

Whether or not your site turns up, it's also a good idea to run the free
Scrawlr tool from HP, which can check your site for the kind of
vulnerabilities exploited by a SQL injection attack. It's quick and easy to download and run.

Also, for your own computer's safety, it's critical to keep all your
software - not just the browsers and the OS - up-to-date with patches.
Finjan writes that this attack kit goes after flaws in QuickTime and the
AOL SuperBuddy as well as Windows.

Here we go again...More left-wing lunacy:

Nancy Pelosi just said "yes" to The Fairness Doctrine that could muzzle
Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and other conservative radio talk show
hosts.

Pelosi is now clearly on record supporting government censorship of our
free speech rights. She also insinuated that The Broadcaster Freedom Act
wouldn't see the light of day, and added there is strong support for a
revival of the "Fairness Doctrine."

Media Research Center has launched a national petition to counter this
and overwhelm her with a message that Americans want their
Free Speech Rights defended and protected from government intrusion.

Already, over 100,000 citizens have signed. Please go here
http://www.townhallmail.com/rlgswzsl_brhgmikc.html to have your
name added to this vital petition.

Petition signed

Israel also doesn't bargain with terrorists. Can someone remind me why we stick up for these......people?

It was a ghastly trade, flesh and blood for two boxes of bones. Many criticized it. Some could not bear to watch it. But if anything showed the difference between Israel and Hizballah in last week's exchange of two dead Israeli soldiers for five live prisoners and 199 corpses, it was not the trade itself.

It was the reaction.

In Israel, where the bodies of Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev arrived in black coffins, the mood was, according to reports, somber and mournful. Candles were lit. Prayers were recited. These two young soldiers, both students and reservists at the time, were captured in a cross-border raid two years ago by Hizballah guerrillas, setting off a small war that left 160 Israelis and 1,000 Lebanese dead.

Because the Israeli military vows to never leave a soldier on the battlefield, negotiations were held to get the two men back, even though most believed they were dead. Hizballah, which captured the two men to use them as bargaining chips, held firm to its demand that Israel free several prisoners, including Samir Kuntar.

Not Kuntar, many Israelis said. He was serving life sentences for murdering three people in 1979: a police officer, a civilian named Danny Haran and Haran's 4-year-old daughter, whose head Kuntar smashed on rocks and with his rifle butt. Haran's wife, hiding her other baby from Kuntar, covered her mouth to stop her whimpering. The child suffocated.

Kuntar's killings were regarded in Israel as the most brutal form of terrorism. The thought of freeing him went against every fiber of justice.

But last week, after almost 30 years behind bars, Kuntar was allowed to go by the Israeli authorities. And on Wednesday, he walked down a red carpet in Beirut and was kissed by the Hizballah leader and cheered like a rock star.

"Samir! Samir!" the crowd reportedly yelled.

This for a man convicted of smashing a child's head into pieces.
Nothing to celebrate

You can take whatever side you like in the Israeli-Palestinian debate. You can argue who is entitled to land and statehood and borders.

But you cannot defend the frenzied lovefest that took place for Kuntar in Lebanon, as if he were some long-lost statesmen, instead of a common murderer who did the worst thing you can do: take the life of a child. What religion condones that? What holy book says that is a good thing? A banner in Beirut, according to the New York Times, read "God's Achievement Through Our Hands."

What God would have a child's murder on anyone's hands? How do people celebrate such a killer? Is it because the little girl was Israeli -- and Israel is the enemy? Since when does a 4-year-old know of politics or war? Is it because Arab children get killed by Israelis? Yes, children undeniably die in bombings -- on both sides. But an Israeli soldier who deliberately smashed a child's head on a rock should -- and likely would -- be tried as a criminal, not cheered like a hero.

The total disregard for life of anyone who does not believe what Hizballah believes stands in stark contrast to the value of life -- and even of its demise -- that Israel demonstrated in bringing those two bodies back. The families of Goldwasser and Regev were able to put their sons in the ground, to say good-bye, to end the wondering. That small act meant something to the government, which voted on the exchange. In the midst of the never-ending conflict Israel faces, that says an awful lot.
Killer vows return

Meanwhile, here is what Kuntar said to the cheering crowd: "I return from Palestine only to go back to Palestine. I promise families in Palestine that we are coming back, me and my brothers in the resistance."

You'll note he never says the word "Israel." To men like Kuntar, Israel does not exist and should never exist. He and the terrorist group that freed him (and you can install Hizballah into all the government seats you want, a terrorist group is still a terrorist group) want a world in which Israel has no place. The Jews should be driven into the sea.

With a philosophy like that, it may be hard to expect remorse. But if you can justify Hizballah calling a national holiday to cheer home a child murderer, there is no talking to you. There is only mourning -- as there was over two coffins last week -- for a world in which such things and such thinking can take place.
