Zone Labs Will Patch Free Firewall

A patch to the free version of ZoneAlarm will be issued within two weeks, the company said. Earlier this week, company executives characterized the difficulty of exploiting the hole as "the equivalent of hacker brain surgery" and said the cost to upgrade a free product would be prohibitive "Zone Labs will make a fix for its free ZoneAlarm product available in the next two weeks," the company said, in a statement that was also published to the BugTraq list late Wednesday night. "In the meantime, users of ZoneAlarm should keep in mind the following facts", Zone Labs added. "This vulnerability has not been exploited to our knowledge. This vulnerability requires that a malicious application is running on the affected PC. For this to occur, an attacker would have to break through the other protection layers of ZoneAlarm (firewall, stealth mode etc.) as a first step." Back to the Top

Outlook: Learning business English online

The move to use English as the medium of instruction for mathematics and science in schools will prepare the future workforce to communicate more effectively in the business and professional world. Similarly, we should also undertake initiatives to improve the level of English usage at the tertiary education level and at the workplace. Efforts must be undertaken by employers and stakeholders in institutions of higher learning to help employees and undergraduates to be competent in the language, says Datuk Dr Vincent Lowe, chairman and chief executive of Rezzen (M) Sdn Bhd. According to Lowe, there is growing concern about the level of English proficiency at the workplace, which if left unchecked, could lead to the country losing its competitiveness, especially in the industrial and technical fields. Basically, majority of the current workforce and undergraduates have not achieved a high level in the language as their school education was in Bahasa Malaysia (BM) and they studied English only as a subject. With the emphasis on using BM at that point of time, the low level is expected. Low says the problem, nevertheless, can be rectified with the introduction of a structured corporate English learning programme at the workplace and institutions of higher education. For convenience, he recommends the self-paced Internet learning mode. Internet-based learning, according to Lowe, is ideal for the modern-day corporate world. It provides flexible learning that can be undertaken onsite from time to time when the need arises. Moreover, large numbers of people can be trained effectively and economically at one time with Internet-based learning. Back to the Top
