Spyware becomes increasingly malicious
by Sean Donelan 12 Jul '04

12 Jul '04

Spyware isn't the best term for what is happening, but it is quickly exceeding (or contributing) to all the other problems associated with the online (not just Internet) world. You probably need to be a paid subscriber or visit a public library http://online.wsj.com/article/0,,SB108958290808760730,00.html By Lee Gomes Wall Street Journal, July 12 2004 Spyware was never a good thing, but lately it has gotten a whole lot worse. For many people, it has become a bigger problem than spam, and one more reason to regret being online. What did the future look like a year ago, Blaster had just hit and spyware wasn't as bad? The R&E community has some interesting ideas. Security at Line Speed Workshop http://apps.internet2.edu/sals/2003aug/presentations.html Terry Gray's "disconnect: security in the post-Internet era" identifies some of the consequences. Jim Rothfuss's "protection of an Open computing environment" covers some of the tools they use. But scaling remains an issue. Who should control your personal computer?

The year was 1968. I was working the 4 to 12 at the NY #2 office of AT&T, which was located at 32 Avenue of the Americas, just south of Canal St. near NY's China Town. It was just about 11:30 PM when I received a system alarm on a NY to Kingston NY "ON" Carrier Ssytem. Believe me, they don't make those anymore. Anyway, the clanger alarm got my attention, so I began investigating its source. To make a long story short, the system was knocked down on purposes by a NY Telephone transmissionman who was stuck atop a pole is sub-freezing weather, with a large, persistent bear at its base. He'd been there for about an hour, he said, and wouldn't leave. So I alerted the local town constable who came to the rescue ... ... at 'round 2AM. The bear stayed there for the entire time, and the guy on the pole was near frost-bitten when all was said and done. Anyway, I got a couple hours of overtime out of the deal, if memory serves me right. ========= On Sun, 11 Jul 2004 12:07 , 'Marshall Eubanks' <tme(a)multicasttech.com> sent: > >Cats and Spiders, Ha ! > >I was involved with the construction of a radio telescope in the Spitzbergen settlement of Ny >Alesund, Norway (78 degrees 56 minutes north). > >http://www.jb.man.ac.uk/vlbi/images/telbig/nyales.gif > >Staff were assigned Colt 45 revolvers because the area was frequented by Polar >Bears - up to 400 kilos, able to run faster than a person, and (so I was told) with >an annoying habit of appearing between you and the front door if you went to take out >the garbage.

RE: VeriSign's rapid DNS updates in .com/.net

Since September 2003, .ORG has offered resolution of new registrations and changes to domain name records within 5 minutes.

I just registered a new .org and it had visibility from external NS not more than 15 minutes later (I would have paid closer attention to just how long it took, but didn't even think to check on it until reading this thread). Maybe I just got lucky and hit their update window (I registered ~ 3:15AM UTC on 11-July-2004 fwiw). Anyone know the status of .org updates?

VeriSign sold the Network Solutions registrar in November 2003 (although it retains a 15% ownership). The rapid updates apply to all changes from all registrars. > Does this apply to authoritative name server changes as well? Do you mean, does it apply to glue records (i.e., A records for name servers) in the .com/.net zones? Yes, it does: a change to a name server's IP address will be reflected just as fast as a change to a domain's (er, zone's) NS records. > Also, does this apply to customers who have had their domains > suspended due to non-payment? I'm not sure what you mean here, but I think you're referring to something that's ultimately a registrar issue. A domain can be placed on hold status in the registry and its NS records will not appear in the .com/.net zones. There are several different hold statuses and they all prevent a domain's NS records from being published. It's possible a registrar could put a domain on hold for non-payment. Any changes to its name servers while it's on hold would be propagated quickly under this new system, as would changes to its hold status, so if it it was removed from hold, whatever changes that occurred while it was on hold would be visible quickly. One other issue: a few people have sent me private email asking if we're planning on changing the 48-hour TTL for NS records and A records in .com/.net. At this point we're not and the reason has a lot to do with a little-known DNS behavior called credibility. It's described in RFC 2181 ("Clarifications to the DNS Specification"), Section 5.4.1, although the concept pre-dates that RFC and has been in the BIND iterative resolver, for example, since version 4.9 (if memory serves). In a nutshell, DNS data has different levels of credibility or trustworthiness depending on where it's learned from. That's relevant here because the version of a zone's NS records from the zone's authoritative servers is more trustworthy than the version obtained from the zone's parent name servers. For example, the foo.com NS records received from a foo.com authoritative server are believed over the foo.com NS records received from a .com name server. Most "positive" responses include the zone's NS records along with the specific data requested (such as an A record). So in practice, here's what happens: - An iterative resolver chasing down, for example, A records for www.foo.com queries a .com name server and caches the foo.com NS records (with a 48-hour TTL) it receives. - The resolver then queries one of the foo.com name servers for the www.foo.com A records. - In the response the resolver receives the www.foo.com A records, along with foo.com's own version of the foo.com NS records--and this is the important part--which have the TTL set by the foo.com zone owner. - According to the credibility scale, the just-received foo.com NS records are more credible than the cached foo.com NS records from .com, so the just-received records displace the cached ones, new TTL and all. In other words, for all the iterative resolvers out there that have this credibility mechanism, the 48-hour TTL on data in .com/.net isn't particularly relevant. Matt

> Verisign doesn't get a refund from ICANN ... Deepak, First, the fee to ICANN is on the order of $0.20/per, as opposed to the fee we registrars pay to VGRS, which is on the order of $6.00. Second, the fees paid by both the registries and registrars is subject to some negociations, which is presently happening with much more energy and vigor than usual, since ICANN wants to really grow its budget this year, at the expense of the ... registrars and registries. Eric Oh, I just submitted a xfr on a hijacked domain ... sigh.

>Here in the SE USA we have a variety of cockroach we refer to as >"palmetto bugs". These grow to about 2 inches (5cm) in length. Any >extended visit under the floor will likely include an encounter >with one. [you mean "with 1000's...."] ..with a special added treat. Unlike the smaller "German Cockroach"; the American one aka palmetto bug: a) Is noisy as all hell as they walk along your ceiling. b) When provoked, these bastards FLY at you. -- A host is a host from coast to coast.................wb8foz(a)nrk.com & no one will talk to a host that's close........[v].(301) 56-LINUX Unless the host (that isn't close).........................pob 1433 is busy, hung or dead....................................20915-1433
