It recently came to my attention that support at Nattyware flooded again with users report about some Trojans inside Pixie. Well, it is the same story as it were once because of PestPatrol made by morons. So here is what I, as the author of Pixie, would like to say:
- Pixie’s code was not changed in a single bit, or re-packed/re-published since 2004. Whatsoever recently aroused Trojan alerts on Pixie are false positives of badly written antivirus software. If your scanner reports any Trojans or spyware inside Pixie, which was taken from http://www.nattyware.com, then please contact your antivirus vendor to fix the bug. Better yet consider to change the vendor because probably the last thing you may need is to be protected by faulty protection software.

Guy Kawasaki’s interview with Steve Wozniak (video, 58min, interesting)

It seems to be a beginning of a bad tradition - I would not attend Asiacrypt conference this year.

Btw, to whom interested: the conference’s proceedings are available at Springer already.

Here is an interview with Peng T. Ong by Sramana Mitra. Peng is a man, who brought us Match.com, Interwoven and Encentuate. I’ve been working with him at the last one while being there a Senior Software Design Engineer, R&D.

The interview: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5
