Microsoft Plugs Hole In Its Malware Protection Engine
Microsoft has patched a vulnerability in its Malware Protection Engine that would have allowed an attacker to gain LocalSystem privileges. Microsoft says the vulnerability could not be exploited by anonymous users and that the update will be applied shortly. The update addresses a privately reported vulnerability that could allow elevation of privilege if the Microsoft Malware Protection Engine scans a system after an attacker with valid logon credentials has created a specially crafted registry key. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could gain the same user rights as the LocalSystem account. The vulnerability could not be exploited by anonymous users. Comments

Antec Six Hundred V2 PC Case
Legit Reviews has taken the Antec Six Hundred V2 around the block a few times and decided this case is in need of a serious update. Antec came to us today with the 600 v2; a slight redesign of their Gaming Series 600 cases. To be frank, this case is just out dated in terms of design. It is surrounded by a lot of marketing but does not actually bring a lot to the table. I cannot stress enough the need to redesign these cases for modern systems. Comments

Workers Sickened at Apple Supplier in China
So how do you like that iPhone? Works good you say? Well, you can thank the 137 seriously ill workers that almost died making your phone! When Apple heard that workers were gravely ill, a spokesperson said So? have you seen Steve Jobs lately? it was a "core violation" of worker saftey....or something like that. Apple, describing it as a "core violation" of worker safety, said that it had ordered the contractor to stop using the chemical and to improve safety conditions at the plant. Apple also said that it would monitor the medical conditions of those workers. But in interviews last weekend, nearly a dozen employees who say they were harmed by the chemical said they had never heard from anyone at Apple. Comments
