The Nightly Build: Friday February 23

The Nightly Build:

  • It took all of a month. Yes Virginia, there appears to be a serious exploit/flaw in Microsoft’s new Office 2007 software. The exploit affects Microsoft Office Publisher 2007 and would allow an attacker to create a malicious publisher file, which, when opened, could leave the victim’s system infected and susceptible to a remote attacks.

  • Gizmodo wants everyone to boycott RIAA music for the month of March. Instead they’d like to see people support bands without supporting the RIAA, i.e. buy indie records, go to shows and buy DRM free downloads. It’s a nice thought, however, call me cynical but I have a feeling most of the people who would really get behind this probably haven’t bought a CD since Napster debuted.

  • Estonia will be the first country in the world to allow internet voting in a national election. Estonia has allowed internet voting in local elections since 2005.

  • Today’s web zen: Yoshihiko Satoh artworks
