Couple of key security things...
There's a recent security issue/vulnerability for the WVC-54GC. It's a camera. Source: 10 Dec 08 Security Now Webcast It involves on OCX exploit - receiving a UDP packet on port 916 causes the router to send all our your private information, logon credentials, usern/pw, wireless networking connection information including WEP and WPA keys in plaintext. Could be exploited to gain access to all of your wireless network assets. Fix: Update to firmware version 1.25, which came out on Jan 3, 2008. Moral of the story: Keep your firmware updated! *** Microsoft: 19 critical vulnerabilities in the most recent Windows Vista security update - it's a Megapack Windows Search service has some remote code execution vulnerabilities. Personally, I would recommend against downloading/installing this "feature." By the way, Microsoft releases security patches every second Tuesday of the month. Non-security patches every last Tuesday of the month, except for December. Recommend download and notify, but not install. On occasion, some releases can conflict with apps - particularly important for corporate applications. *** If you use Trillian, upgrade to 3.1.12.0. Without it, you may have a trillian Message problem. Trillian's receipt of an IM can cause code to be executed in your machine. The upgrade fixes a handful of problems, including a zero-day problem.
