1. Comment - Zero-Day Mac OS X Exploit Disclosed

   (Nov 22, 2006 - 11:05 AM)

   I emailed Athena SmartCard Solutions earlier this week. They sent me the 32-bit drivers and apparently are working on the 64-bit ones. The thing is that in the 64-bit version of the OS drivers must be signed or else you have to press the F8 key to disable the check for that bootup. The 32-bit version of the OS can get that check disabled completely.

2. Comment - Microsoft, Dell Team on Special Vista PC

   As I understand it Dell doesn't use many non-standard parts anymore. Last I heard they were using standard power supply units now. Well at least you don't have to worry about the board getting fried by installing an off the shelf power supply.

   I think trillian is better but I have issues losing connections to MSN Messenger sometimes. Miranda can be clumsy to work with sometimes although it does have a _really_ small footprint

4. Comment - 5,198 Linux, Windows OS Flaws in 2005

   There are linux distros that can edit the windows registry. I know that there is at least one anyways. BartPE stands for Bart's Preinstallation Environment and creates basically a working windows install that boots from a live cd. I believe it can load the registry files from the hard drive and is able to modify then to fix any issues. That is if you know what to fix.
