Moving the Blog, New Windows Vulnerability, Dead Space
Posted by Nuke in General, Sci-Tech, gamingMoving the Blog
Now that my computer system is fairly usable after the re-configuration and my security flub has been taken care of, it looks like I can start moving the blog to the new location ahead of schedule.
Starting on a fresh installation of Wordpress should help solve the 404 permalink problem as well as get rid of some of the plugin bloat, resulting in a snappier, more responsive blog.
New Windows Vulnerability
This news is actually a few days old but it slipped under my radar while my system’s still being worked on.
It’s a new kind of Windows vulnerability that allows an attacker to execute code using a specially crafted RPC request and they can take advantage of this exploit without having any authorization to run arbitrary code. This affects all Windows versions.
You can read more about it from here, as well as download an appropriate patch for your version of Windows.
Way to go Microsoft!
Dead Space
I’m all set for Halloween with my copy of Dead Space, the new sci-fi survival horror for the PC and X-Box.
The suspense in these kind of games always gets to me. I couldn’t even finish Silent Hill 4. 
Hopefully I won’t wimp out this time.
