That is why I was asking if anyone had info of a web attack ocurring today.

There is a new worm that attacks cell phones with the Symbian operating system inside. This includes some Nokia, Siemens and Ericsson. See article.
The worm arrives in a text message displaying "Caribe". If you accept that message, the worm installs itself and begins searching for Bluetooth connected devices. This worm will likely be limited to people with smart phone/PDA devices that include Bluetooth connectivity.

They found 251 restaurants were mixing poppies in soup or using them as seasoning for hot pots. Relevant departments ordered 215 restaurants considered to be very seriously committing the illegal practice to stop business for amendment, and reprimanded 36 other eateries believed to have less seriously committed the illegal practice.
They also confiscated 3.2 kg of poppy seeds and 1.7 kg of poppyhull from the joint action, according to Zhang.
Wei Tao, deputy chief of the Food Institute with Guizhou Provincial Center for Disease Control, said varying degrees of morphine were found in soup materials sent for inspection in the joint action.
"Consuming soup or hot pots mixed with poppies for a long time will make you become addicted to such food and eventually lead youto drug abuse in serious cases," said Wei. Enditem

WEATHER RADIO TO HANDLE TERROR ALERTS
By Randolph E. Schmid
The Associated Press
6/17/2004, 3:28 p.m. ET
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Emergency alerts for everything from tornadoes to missing children and terror warnings will get out to the public through an expanded weather radio network, the government announced Thursday.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's network already makes emergency weather warnings available to 97 percent of the country and has added alerts for missing children and other hazards in recent years.
The addition of the Homeland Security Department to the system will allow terror alerts and warnings to be distributed automatically through the same way.
"This agreement is an example of interagency cooperation that ... can be applied to protect the homeland from both man-made and natural disasters," said Frank Libutti, undersecretary for information analysis and infrastructure protection at Homeland Security.
Added NOAA Administrator Conrad C. Lautenbacher: "Today, radios, televisions and other devices are equipped to sound the alarm when danger threatens. Warnings and alerts can also be sent to cell phones, pagers and computers, ensuring that these vital messages can reach every corner of America."
Special radios that automatically turn on and sound an alarm when it is received are popular in areas subject to tornado, hurricane and other weather threats. The devices are in use in many public places, stores.
Lautenbacher noted that the system encodes messages to a specific area where a threat occurs.
NOAA also cooperates with the Emergency Alert System, operated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, which sends alerts to local radio and television stations and cable systems.
Beginning more than three decades ago with weather warnings over special radios, the NOAA system has become an all-hazards network. It covers natural disasters such as earthquakes and volcanoes; serious accidents, such as chemical releases; nuclear power plant emergencies; train derailments; maritime concerns; and 911 outages.
No, but where I work I do tech support. Our product uses a phone line and modem. It is rare that they fail but I have been having a VERY large number of failures today. I normally have maybe one a month, but I have had at least 4 today. My supervisors have commented that they have had a lot of others with the same problem. Don't know if that means anything, who knows?
Are any tri-state area TM'ers planning to go to the Clinton book freep in midtown next Tuesday at lunch time?
