Windows XP Documentation Update

Also from Lockergnome.com: "Do you need help making your Windows XP computer more secure? Microsoft has come out with a Windows Help update that installs a help file with information on securing your system. This Microsoft Knowledge Base article talks you through how to obtain the update and the command-line switches needed to do a corporate deployment. After you run the documentation update, you can view this new security help document by going to Help and Support, and then clicking on "Security and privacy" under Pick a Help topic. My advice to you in regards to this security document, as with any security document, is to use your best judgment. In some cases this may only be a starting point for you, but for most home users, this is only a guideline and you shouldn't lock down anything that you're not comfortable with. Do some research on those uncomfortable areas and you may even find a better solution, but remember that ANY security is better than none at all."

PGP 8.0 Encryption Software Beta Released

"PGP was once the most popular encryption tool on the market, but it lost a lot of momentum due to neglect by former owner Network Associates and the rise of open source alternatives like GnuPG. PGP Corporations purchased the software and is getting ready to release version 8.0 in late November. Meanwhile, it is making available a beta version for general testing. The PGP 8.0 beta software will expire and disable itself Dec. 6. Due to export restrictions, users in certain countries cannot download the software; our readers in Iraq (are there any?) are out of luck. Serious encryption users will definitely want to check this out."
