Intel buying McAfee, with the idea in mind of perhaps installing security on their chips.

Foundstone offers a bunch of free tools, wonder if they will continue to do so? To be sure, many of them are as dangerous as a bomb for me, but still they are useful for IT pros.

The CCleaner SLIM version is always released a bit after any new version; when it is it will be HERE :-)

Pssssst: ... It isn't really a cloud. Its a bunch of big, giant servers.

I was wondering if this will herald the inclusion of cpu/bios level Antivirus/Firewalls, which is something that's been spoken of for a couple of year. 7.6Billion is quite a lot to spend

 

ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION

DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.

Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark)

ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

I hope not. McAfee makes horrible Antivirus software. I wouldn't want any of their junk anywhere near my machines especially at a cpu/bios level. I don't see this working out for Intel.
