Last week I purchased a car interface kit that gives me the ability to hook my iPhone up to the audio system that I have installed in my car. The install went fairly smooth, but I was rather disappointed with the level of control I had over my iPhone using the audio controls on my car.

When Apple announced that the iPhone would be capable of tethering a computer to the Internet a lot of customers in the U.S. shrugged their shoulders because AT&T wasn't on the list of carriers who were ready to roll the service out.

Last week Hulu announced that they were going to be blocking access for Boxee and TV.com because of pressure from content providers. This obviously makes sense because Hulu still looks as though they are having a hard time capitalizing on advertisements when being compared to what they're able to sell on TV.

One of the first things that I did when I got my new (and first) Mac is I started customizing different aspects of the Dock. There's actually a decent number of things that you can customize with the Dock by default, and it didn't take long for me to start finding out some tricks here and there.

There is a lot of incorrect information going around the Internet right now about how Microsoft is helping out law enforcement with some forensic tools they are providing on USB drives. The tool is called COFEE (Computer Online Forensic Evidence Extractor), and over 2,000 of these handy little things have been given out to 350 different agencies.

We wrote about the CanSecWest conference last week when the hacking contest was on its second day. The second day consisted of stock configurations along with browsers and some mail applications. That's when the MacBook Air laptop was hacked in in about 2 minutes utilizing a Safari vulnerability that Apple has now been notified of.

...brush your teeth, grab a cup of coffee, email a friend, or hack a MacBook Air. Just like last year the CanSecWest conference is currently going on, and tons of hackers cram in to see who can be the first to hack one of the laptops that are provided.

Microsoft must be extremely unhappy with the "quality" of the cracks available for Vista right now. Earlier this month we showed that the Vista OEM BIOS crack is still alive and kicking in Vista SP1 despite claims by Microsoft that those types of cracks had been patched. I would mark that up as an "oops" by Microsoft.

I would say that Microsoft once again threw down the gauntlet when they announced that Vista SP1 will deactivate machines using OEM BIOS cracks and other methods used to circumvent activation. After over a dozen emails about the topic I decided that I would check out for myself whether Vista SP1 RTM really causes piraters as much trouble as they say it will.

One of the logos that users have come to trust is the "Hacker Safe" label placed on certain sites. Geeks.com has that logo on their site, but that didn't stop them from getting hacked back in December. Are the sites that say they are Hacker Safe really all that secure?
