McAfee's AvertLabs waarschuwt nog eens voor de risico's van HTML geformatteerde mails. Het gebruik ervan is behoorlijk gevaarlijk omdat alles wat op een HTML pagina mogelijk is ook in een mail mogelijk blijkt te zijn. Besmettende mails zijn al regelmatig gevonden en het komt zelfs voor dat de maker het zo in elkaar heeft gestoken dat antwoorden op zich ook weer voor infecties zorgen (mails zijn in dat geval dus meervoudig besmettend).

    As time goes on, you will see more references to WinRM, especially with Windows Server 2008. Windows 2003 R2 had a form of WinRM that has now been updated to support the WS-Management industry standard.

    Who should be interested in this? People that manage servers remotely and need a firewall friendly protocol to use. People that are looking into deploying Windows Server 2008 and especially Windows Server 2008 Core. People that need to interface with the BMC adapters on servers from remote.

    Anyway, KB
    936059 updates Windows XP SP2 and Windows Server 2003 WinRM components to bring them more in line with what Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 are using.

    Zoek je een baan bij Microsoft's Exchange team, lees dan verder.
     
    Microsoft just built a new website aimed at helping job-seekers figure out if they might be interested in working in the Exchange team: http://www.exchangeyourcareer.com.

    Our goal in building the site was to let people know more about what kind of work we do on the Exchange team, showcase a few of the people who already work in Exchange, what it's like living in the northwest, and show how Exchange has helped change the world.

    As you can see, the site is written in a light tone and intended to showcase the sense of humor the team has as well as make the content easier to read. There are also a few 'easter eggs' (for lack of a better term) hidden throughout the flash on the site, including at least one that long-time Exchange administrators who've ever done JET performance tuning[1] should find amusing :-)

    So if you or someone you know of might be interested in one of the many roles on the team (not just dev/test/PM but also build engineers, writers, editors, designers, user researchers and more) and seeing what it takes to design, develop, test and ship a world-class product, then check out http://www.exchangeyourcareer.com.
