It seems that the antivirus software you installed to keep your computer safe could actually be making your security worse. Robert O'Callahan has recently written a fascinating blog post explaining why . There's also a follow-up blog post that provides more detail and response to criticisms of his advice to uninstall your antivirus software. from The Universal Machine http://universal-machine.blogspot.com/ Universal Machine post to email (CS blog)
Facebook became more popular yesterday as its founder Mark Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla Chan pledged 99% of their shares in Facebook to charity to mark the birth of their first child. These shares are currently valued at around $45 billion. This will leave the Zuckerberg family with a mere half billion dollars to scrape by on. Actually I'm not being facetious, I commend Zuckerberg for his actions, nobody needs such a vast fortune and in the hands of well-run charities such huge sums of money can make a real difference.

When you use Facebook now you can know that you are helping make the world a better place. from The Universal Machine http://universal-machine.blogspot.com/ Put the internet to work for you.
