Antivirus software glitch risks clean files
San Francisco Chronicle
tmpl –> Antivirus software cuts two ways. It’s great at blocking known viruses but it can sometimes misfire mistakenly flagging clean files as malicious. That sends a computer into a tailspin trying to clean up stuff that’s supposed to be on there.

Software Crackdown
Newsweek
A few weeks ago malware known as Zero Day was found to have exploited a vulnerability in Microsoft’s Windows operating system that could allow online criminals to take control of a computer from anywhere in the world without being detected. The operation involved what is known as “drive by” attacks in which visitors to legitimate Web sites are redirected to a page that secretly downloads the malicious software. Serious threats like Zero Day make software makers tremble not just because they’re difficult to fix but because the firms fear that legal action and tough government regulation on security issues could be right around the corner. Many in the computer-security industry believe companies will face increasing scrutiny in the years to come forcing them to take legal responsibility for flaws in their programs that let hackers in. Microsoft would take most of the heat simply because its software is everywhere: Windows runs on nearly 95 percent of the world’s computers which is why it bears the brunt of online assaults. “Microsoft fears a class-action lawsuit based on the fact that they make and distribute products that are not absolutely perfect” says Eric Domage a software-security analyst at the market intelligence firm IDC. Software firms haven’t had to sweat security problems very much because licensing agreements protect them from liability when systems are hacked information is stolen and customers suffer financial losses using their products.

AP Software Tracks Appropriation of Content
Marketing Vox News
AP Software Tracks Appropriation of Content. Each article will be published with a digital “wrapper” — data not visible to users that maximizes the content’s ranking in search engines and tracks its movements across the web. The program will be introduced in stages stretching over the course of the next year and will eventually be unrolled to pictures and videos. The act stems from a conviction that news articles — the licensing and syndication of which serves as AP’s flagship business model — should not appear on websites or even search engines without express permission The New York Times.
