Wi-Fi 'hot spots' allow user to be covertly tracked A Seattle Times article describes the security risks you may be taking when using a "public" wireless AirPort connection.

MacSlash domain: a follow-up Yesterday, we reported on problems with the MacSlash (www.macslash.com) domain. They seemed to be solved. Apparently not. The URL now leads to MacMall. We received this note from Robert Daeley (aka MacGeek at MacSlash): "We have for the time being come back to life at www.macslash.org. We've posted a story this morning detailing the situation. Turns out it has to do with mac.com spam deletion."

Office v. X SR 1 coming soon The Microsoft Mac website has a message on it that says: "Coming soon — Office v. X, Service Release 1." (Thanks, David Cohen.)

FAXstf X 10.0.4 is out.
