Secure Passoword Reminder - RoboForm 6.9 Released

RoboForm makes logging into Web sites and filling forms faster, easier, and more secure. RoboForm memorizes and securely stores each user name and password the first time you log into a site, then automatically supplies them when you return. RoboForm's powerful Logins feature eliminates the manual steps of logging into any online account. With just one click RoboForm will navigate to a Web site, enter your username and password and click the submit button for you.

RoboForm 6.9 New Features
* Support Netscape 9.0 and Firefox 3 alpha.
* Fix Print List font size.
* Fix Assert in FrameManager:5408.
* Fix AutoLogoff on Standby, it was not always logging off.
* Fix position of current item in multi-page menu when showing next page.

You can reduce the time you spend filling out Web forms and logging onto subscription sites with RoboForm. This major update improves usability significantly and replaces the old, clunky auto fill window with a less-obtrusive tool bar. If you don't like the standard tool bar placement, you can run it at the bottom of the browser instead. That's the standard placement for Mozilla-based browsers. The program uses encryption algorithms such as Blowfish and AES to protect your data and includes a password generator. You can set up multiple identities with different credit-card numbers, passwords, and contact information. The trial limits the tab instances on each identity to three, but you can make plenty of identities.

Acrobat Reader security flaw exposes Windows to arbitrary exploits

A security researcher and self-described hacker known as "pdp" claims he has found a critical exploit in Adobe's Acrobat software that can compromise many Windows PCs simply by viewing a maliciously-crafted PDF file. The flaw affects both Windows XP SP2 and Windows 2003; Windows Vista, OS X, and Linux users are unaffected.

The bug affects Acrobat Reader, versions 8.1, 8.0, and 7, either when run in stand-alone mode or embedded inside a web page. Some work-alike PDF readers, such as the svelte Foxit Reader, are also affected but in a lesser manner: they display a confirmation dialog before the exploit is allowed to run.

The exploit uses a flaw in Adobe's scripting language to automatically run an executable program—the discoverer tested this by harmlessly running Calculator and Notepad in a video on his site. Yet, as noted, the exploit could be used to run any program, including a trojan or virus or a scripted attack. The malware in question would have to have already been downloaded onto the victim's computer, but this could be accomplished in various ways, including putting the executable inside a .ZIP file that includes the original PDF, or linking to a remote executable (the latter option would still trigger a warning by the operating system, however).

Netstat - Know your network connection

netstat (network statistics) is a command-line tool that displays network connections (both incoming and outgoing), routing tables, and a number of network interface statistics. It is available on Unix, Unix-like, and Windows NT-based operating systems.

If you are worried that some programs on your PC are secretly making connections to websites in the background, here's a quick tip that uses a simple DOS command to detect and prevent such suspicious activity:

1. Open Windows Run Command from the Start Menu

2. Type CMD command in the Run box and press OK.

3. Type "netstat -b 10 > netact.txt" in the command window and press ENTER. After some times say 2 minutes, press Ctrl+C.

4. Type "netact.txt" on the command line to open the log file in notepad (or your default text editor)

The file netact.txt will have a log of all process that made a connection to the Internet in the last two minutes. It will also show which process connected to which website in this time. And not just the web browsers (like iexplore.exe , firefox.exe or opera.exe), the log will also show your IM clients, download managers, email programs or any software that requires a net connection.

Scroll though the netact.txt file and look for any process names or website addresses that you are not aware of. If you track one, go to the task manager (or Process Explorer) to find the location of the executable on your computer and eliminate it.
