Nice! I like! My ugg boots arrived today, I'm very pleased with them. So silky smooth and soft I can't believe it. I researched the whole ugg thing last year but decided not to order because I really couldn't afford a pair. This year I read about Whooga's in a fashion forum and decided to give them a try. I ordered a size too small initially and had to return them for a 6 which was a bit annoying but eventually worth the wait, I'm a 5.5 in most shoes but ugg boots on sale sometimes vary between 5.5 and 6. I probably should have measured my foot, anyway I'm very pleased..

Hijacking of traffic by DNS cache poisoning has been a well known method for stealing the identity of a web site or an ISP. I am glad that a co-ordinated method is being applied to fix this at the DNS level.

There is yet another method for stealing traffic and identity theft on the Internet, which happens at the routing plane via a technique called 'IP Prefix Hijacking'. For instance, recall how Pakistan Telecom Authority accidentally stole all traffic headed to YouTube earlier this year. IMHO this is infact a far more serious problem and unfortunately ISPs still haven't deployed automated tools to detect such attacks. Imagine, someone stealing the IP addresss space of a bank by advertising the bank's prefix space and then setting up a website that looks like that bank. The actual techniques and details get hairy, I have more details on how to detect these attacks at my blog: http://www.narus.com/blog/2...

"So far, Kaminsky said there is no evidence that any hackers are exploiting the vulnerability."

Uh.. this happened to ICANN two weeks ago. How is that not evidence. It's been happening for years.
