Yahoo shares fall sharply
The stock shed $1.13, or 4.8 percent, to $22.43 in afternoon trading. In the past year, the stock has traded between $18.58 and $34.08. Yahoo shares gained 10 percent last week on hopes that Microsoft’s decision to side with Icahn might pave the way for a deal. Four reasons why Yahoo! shook its head 1. Yahoo!'s existing business plus its recently signed commercial agreement with Google has superior financial value and less complexity and risk than the Microsoft/Icahn proposal. 2. The Microsoft/Icahn proposal would preclude a potential sale of all of Yahoo! for a full and fair price, including a control premium 3. The major component of the overall value per share asserted by Microsoft/Icahn would be in Yahoo!'s remaining non-search businesses which would be overseen by Mr. Icahn's slate of directors, which has virtually no working knowledge of Yahoo!'s businesses. 4. The Microsoft/Icahn proposal would require the immediate replacement of the current Board and removal of the top management team at Yahoo!. The Yahoo! Board believes these moves would destabilize Yahoo! for the up to … one year it would take to gain regulatory approval for this deal.
Yahoo Inc. shares fell Monday after the struggling Internet icon revealed that it rejected Microsoft Corp.’s latest purchase offer, made with activist investor Carl Icahn.
On Saturday evening, Yahoo rejected a sweetened Microsoft-Icahn offer made Friday. Icahn, who has no experience running an Internet company, would have been left in charge of Yahoo’s remaining pieces had an agreement to sell the search engine to Microsoft been reached.

Major Internet Flaw discovered
U.S. security experts have discovered a major flaw in the design of the Internet's address system that affects virtually every corporate computer network.
The flaw in the Domain Name System could allow hackers to steer most people using corporate networks to malicious Web sites, The Los Angeles Times reported Wednesday.
So far, hackers haven't taken advantage of the flaw, and the security experts say every major software company affected is in the process of issuing patches to fix the problem.
The man who discovered the flaw, Dan Kaminsky of the Seattle-based security firm IOActive Inc., says he hopes the patches will be broad enough that hackers won't be able to reverse-engineer them.
"We got lucky in this particular bug, because it's a design flaw," says Kaminsky. "It shows up in everyone's network, but the fix is a design fix that doesn't point directly at what we're improving."
Kaminsky says it took only a couple of hours to find the flaw but fixing it will take several months.
PRECAUTIONS:
-Make sure you keep all Internal DNS requests internal, block them at the firewall and use a DNS proxy/"external"DNS server to make requests on their behalf.
-There is little need to use recursion within the Internal network.
-if using 2003 server from microsoft, set up all Internal DNS servers as "secondaries"
-remove the DNS Root servers from your internal/secondary DNS server so they can not send requests out the firewall/dns proxy server. replace them with your last-"external" DNS server.
-point all internal DNS servers to the "external" DNS proxy server or DNS server instead of the root name servers.
-avoid using forwarders that point to external DNS servers like your ISP's or the root DNS servers. Force the DNS clients and Internal DNS servers to make the request by forwarding directly to the DNS proxy or DNS server that is the "external" or last hop out.
-set up DHCP so that client computers use the appropriate Internal DNS server for their network/subnet.

Apple iPhone 3G-Complete Guide
The new iPhone 3G debuts this Friday and the anticipation is building for the latest device from Apple. It is expected that long lines will form outside the Apple stores for the new iPhone 3G just as they did at the introduction of its predecessor the original iPhone.
The original Apple iPhone was a love it or hate it device - and incredibly slick and stylish handset, but one with a number of serious flaws. The replacement iPhone has been rumoured for months and finally we can see what Apple have kept very secret - the new Apple iPhone 3G. Billed as "Twice as fast. Half the price", the iPhone certainly addresses two of the key concerns of the original - that it was expensive and slow.
iPhone 3G Benefits
iPhone 3G will retain the look and feel of the original model but will sport a much more attractive price tag of $199, half of what the original iPhone cost. This iPhone 3G uses a new cellular technology that is extremely fast over the cell network called 3G. It also has a new operating system that will allow for wireless synchronization with your email and calendars.
Apple has improved the audio on the new iPhone and the speaker is much louder for both music and for the speakerphone. But the camera on the iPhone 3G is still not impressive, with just a resolution of 2 mega pixels and it still can't record video. For U.S. users the power adapter is now tiny and there is no longer a dock for charging, just a cable.
Apple is introducing a consumer service called Mobile Me for the new IPhone 3G and for upgraded older models. MobileMe offers functionality such as synchronized push email, calendars, photo and contact management.
There are other improvements on the new iPhone 3G such as the ability to delete multiple emails at once, set parental controls, search contacts, save photos in emails and open Microsoft PowerPoint files sent as attachments.
iPhone 3G Hidden Costs
The new iPhone 3G has two hidden costs that have surfaced in testing of the phone. The first cost being that the iPhone's 3G battery drains much faster than the battery did on the original iPhone. Because of the demands of the 3G network, the new iPhone 3G requires a lot more power for the same functions. This problem becomes quite significant because the new iPhone 3G has a sealed battery that can't be replaced with a spare, it has to be charged.
While the Apple iPhone 3G is certainly a much better device than the original iPhone, a lot of flaws still exist. Many of Apple's competitors will be breathing a sigh of relief that the iPhone 3G is certainly not as good as it should be. Still, we think that it will sell well and even the hardest of cynics were impressed by the original iPhone when they get their hands on one.
