[sigh]. Now I have a good answer to the statement "Surely no one is stupid enough to put raw SQL into a URL!"

The best part if that the "blurring" of the email address is horrible and you can easily see many of the email addresses of register sex offenders.

Want to see who else is an idiot?

...

allinurl:?= SELECT FROM WHERE AND (sql|q|query)

... and watch the silliness.

Please don't INSERT me into the table as a registered sex offender.

Oklahoma isn't the only one

We're hoping to have a great crowd this year!

When we got contacted by ISC reader Greg in Hungary, whose web server had been hacked and adorned with a couple of obfuscated JavaScript files, we expected a variant of the "nmidahena" injection and a closed case. JavaScript is an interpreted language, and while the obfuscation attempts we see are getting more creative, the scripts can usually still be coerced quite easily into divulging their secrets. ISC handler Lenny Zeltser teaches the SANS course on malware analysis, and ISC handler Bojan Zdrnja wrote the portion on JavaScript analysis for that course, so we are usually able to make short work of bad stuff.

Cool example of self-defending javascript malware.

European Deli & Market in Atlanta - 2008 HOT LIST

Come join us in Georgia for the ultimate race weekend party: GRM Speedfest at The Classic Motorsports Mitty May 2-4. Once again, we'll take care of the infield entertainment during HSR's Road Atlanta historic race weekend with car corrals, autocross runs and a huge party at the Moss Pub with Moss Motors, complete with a dart tournament.

Ford Power is the Mitty's theme this year, and both old and new models will be featured. Classic Fords will do battle in the HSR run groups, while the weekend will also feature the debut race for the new Ford Racing Mustang Challenge for the Miller Cup presented by BFGoodrich Tires.

This series — sanctioned by Grand-Am, the same people who run the Rolex 24 At Daytona — recalls days gone by of production-based door-slammers fighting it out for world domination. Each competitor must run the Ford Mustang FR500S, a factory-built racer based on the latest Mustang GT. Each car comes from the factory ready to race, down to the roll cage and safety gear.

Mazda is again sponsoring the event and will again bring several of their historic cars to the track. If you have ever wanted to see some of the world’s best rotary-powered racers up close, this would be your chance. Mazda fans can also enjoy the SCCA Pro Mazda MX-5 Cup Series. Thanks to Kumho tires, they'll also have a chance to autocross an MX-5.

I will be going to this!

The Mitty '08

As if I needed more reasons to hate Comcast.

Until recently, most Comcast systems passed all HD as is from the content provider, without any added compression or quality reduction. In response to competitive pressures from DirecTV and Verizon FiOS, Comcast recently decided to sacrifice some quality to improve quantity. By early April, most Comcast systems will recompress and degrade their HD, much like DirecTV and Dish Network do on their MPEG-2 channels. This creates room for new HD channels without the need to eliminate a significant number of analog channels.

Previously, Comcast allocated a maximum of two HD channels per 38.8Mbps QAM, so each channel had the full 19.4Mbps available if needed. Now, with the addition of new channels, Comcast is squeezing three HD channels into each 38.8Mbps QAM. Furthermore, some existing QAMs with two HD channels are being recompressed in preparation for new channel additions.

But what does that mean? How much difference is there, really?

To find out, I decided to compare the quality of the same programs on Comcast and Verizon FiOS. I recorded the same program from the same channel, at the same time, on both Comcast and Verizon FiOS in N. VA. I compared the size and bitrate of each MPEG-2 recording, as well as the subjective quality with video.

When I was in Pittsburgh visiting my parents last weekend I got to see Verzion FiOS in action. All I can say is WOW!

First Human to Fail the Turing Test

You can take a person that’s playing on the expert levels in Rock Band on the drums and put them on a real drum set, and they can play the drums. And I watched this happen with a Q&A staff of 25-30 people. Maybe 2 or 3 of those had experience of being drummers, but they’ve been playing the game for months now, and what we’ve got is 30 drummers in the Q&A department who are pounding away in the Hard and Expert settings. These people have learned the fundamentals of drums, and this isn’t abstracting fundamentals — you can put these people on a drum set and they have some basic skills now. As a payoff for playing a video game, that’s incredible! Rock Band is going to be out there training this wave of new young drummers, and that’s a really exciting aspect of the project for us.

I can beat Claudio on the vocals!

Are Rock Band Drums like Real World Drums?
