How do you spell relief? R-E-P-R-I-E-V-E if you're still using NT. Microsoft has decided to pull the plug on support later rather than sooner after customers complained. So does this mean Microsoft's hearing is getting better?

Experts warn unpatched SQL Servers still susceptible to Slammer (SearchSecurity.com)
The spread and impact of the Slammer worm are at manageable levels, but security experts warn that vulnerable SQL Server installations are liable to be re-infected. Some administrators have rushed to patch flawed SQL Servers, but many have not and that continues to give the worm some wriggle room.

THE MISSING LINK
Ain't no mountain high enough -- Web cafe coming to Everest
![]()
There is one Web cafe that will definitely take your breath, as well as your money, away. It's the Web cafe coming in March to Mount Everest -- a place with a serious altitude. The cafe will be 17,388 feet (more than three miles) up and offer Net access to climbers who need to surf before they tackle any more turf. Some people just can't make it to the summit without checking e-mail first. The cafe will use a wireless transmitter to link up to the world below, and climbers better have some cash in their backpacks -- logging on will cost more than $1,000, with profits going toward clearing away the mountain of trash that climbers leave behind. Can a Starbucks be far behind?
