SGI Compares SCO, Linux Kernels -- 3:17 pm CST, Update by The Master

Heres a Slashdot post with some discussion on SGI's announced comparison of the SGI copy of System V UNIX and the Linux 2.4 kernel. Their results? The similarities are "trivial in amount". Some good news. Now, if IBM would do the comparison and announce the results, that would be a good thing.

Blame IE for Half-Life 2 Leak? -- 12:27 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

This eWEEK article seems to blame "known and unpatched vulnerabilities" in Internet Explorer for allowing the source code to Half-Life 2 to be stolen from Valve. The article is long on accusation but very short on details. Even if IE is at least partially to blame, I still question Valve's networking policies.

More on (Moron?) the Half-Life 2 Source -- 9:03 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

Shacknews got an update on the Half-Life 2 source leak. Now I may not be the biggest network security guru in the world, but it seems that Valve had some serious security issues before the breach ever occurred. I never will understand why companies like this leave their IP on machines with access to the Internet.
