Amy Winehouse tötet Hamster mit Crack
Viel Kritik hat Amy Winehouse in der letzten Zeit wegen ihres mit Alkohol und Drogen gewürzten exzessiven Lebensstils einstecken müssen. Zuletzt nahm sogar die UNO die Sängerin aufs Korn, weil sie Kokainkonsum verherrliche. Nun plauderte ein früherer Session-Musiker von Winehouse gegenüber der britischen Zeitung "Sun" ein Geheimnis aus, das vor allem Tierfreunde empören dürfte: Amy soll während eines privaten Trinkgelages den Hamster eines Freundes mit Crack gekillt haben.

Researchers warn of AV software risks
The vulnerabilities in antivirus software make the programs as much a threat, as a help, to corporate network security, two German security experts argued in a presentation released last week.
The researchers -- Sergio Alvarez and Thierry Zoller, both of German security firm N.runs -- have taken antivirus companies to task for a large number of vulnerabilities the two discovered in how virus scanners parse potentially malicious files. While antivirus software is a typical piece of companies' defense-in-depth strategy, security holes in the software could allow an attacker to bypass other defenses, the pair argued.
