Mozilla released Firefox 1.5.0.1 to fix several vulnerabilities

According to secunia’s security advisory, several vulnerabilities were found in Firefox. Fortunately, Mozilla released Firefox 1.5.0.1 to fix them.

See the release notes and the list of security fixes.

If you still use FireFox 1.0.7, please note it is vulnerable to some of the problems as well. I’m expecting a 1.0.8 to be released but since it’s taking it’s time it might be easier to take the step to the 1.5 series.

Malware Domain List – Updated

Bleeding Snort released an updated list of known malware-related domains yesterday, up to 9,400 entries now! For those of you employing DNS black holes, proxy-based filtering, or doing other general research of malware based on domains, you should check out this exhaustive (and exhausting!) new list. I frequently rely on this list to match against when doing research of spyware and related nasties.
Thanks to the Bleeding Snort guys for their hard work.

ActiveX Blocklist Release 2006-01-30

This version of the SpywareGuide.com Active-X blockfile contains 3762 items and inoculates Internet Explorer against 375 different spyware and malware products.
Tired of all that Spyware and Adware being installed by ActiveX but don`t want to lose out on functionality? Spyware-Guide.com has created a system that blocks all known “bad” ActiveX controls from running inside Internet Explorer by setting the “Kill bit”. The best part of this process is that we can pull this off without *any* programs running on your PC, without even having to run a program to install the block list!

All you need to down is download the -small- registry file below (Right-Click, choose “Save As…”) and then double click it to enter it into the registry and activate the protection.
