Darcy Casselman's weblog. Just like old times.

ooh, viruses

This is interesting. Well not really. It's a proof of concept that viruses can be transported through data files like JPEGs. It's interesting in the sense that I had this idea in highschool (except with GIF files...). Of course, you need an executable to do extract and run the code stored in a data file, so there's no reason to panic quite yet... Personally, I dismissed the approach these guys took as cheating.

Today would be a good day to hide from the world. I'm feeling... drained.

Yeah, er, "Zelda"... you'll get an email. Maybe even tonight. Hm... Sorry. I think it's been about a year since I've sent out a purely "Hey, how's it going?" email message. Really, you shoud set up an online journal thingy I can read from work every morning, posting witty quips when I'm feeling really inspired. Or let me know if you're on ICQ/AIM/MSN/Yahoo!... (I'll put my IDs/handles/whatever in that aforementioned message). I've been moderately more successful at keeping in touch with people that way...

Yeah. Sorry. ^^;
