AUTORUN.INF and Flash Drive Infections Spread Faster than Cholera in Developing Countries
Viruses are often spread by something inserted into the orifices of unprotected hosts, although some are virulent / evolved enough to get around basic protection as well. In Thailand, USB drives spread nasties faster than digital treatment can be applied, so after several years of taking care of many computers, I’ve decided that vaccination is the best option*. This consists of planting a hidden and practically undeletable AUTORUN.INF file in the root of a removable drive. I use Panda USB to vaccinate. //////////// *Like all vacs, you run a chance of getting sick if you have a reaction. Specifically, you could lose all the data on your NTSF-formatted drive in…

It’s not rainy season, the big monkey in the sky has no reason to piss on us, and it’s doubtful that I triggered the clouds with Yo Gabba Gabba dancing earlier today. /////////////////// *It rained last week, too, and it even got cool for a few days, which was really nice, but also weird for this time of year. Weird is good sometimes.

Sharks and Casting
Here’s a couple of outstanding photo links from this week: Worker Safety In Chinese Factories (lost-wax casting photo series) This is just awesome photography. (via Mark on Buzz) Photographer Dale Kobetich survives a dramatic shark encounter (via Jason K on FB) This is the shark that the Old Man calls Dentuso. I hate sharks. I don’t wish them all dead; I just wish they didn’t have teeth (so we could have headlines like, “Surfer Furiously Gummed in GW Attack”).
