Computer Fraud Seminar

I spoke at my first seminar yesterday. The location was the scenic Couer D’Alene Resort in Couer D’Alene, Idaho. The topic pretty much veered off from computer fraud to computer crime.  It wasn’t surprising to see some of the audience were completely shocked at the end of the day. Nevertheless, it was an exhilarating experience and I’m getting ready for my next course on IT Auditing. Feels different being an instructor for a change.

National Fraud Score

I visited a website called the National Fraud Score. They let you take a survey to determine your awareness of issues regarding identity theft. The final score categorizes your risk from fraud. I must say I’m pretty watchful for those thugs out there.

Telugu dates back to 400 B.C !

I was surprised to note that inscriptions containing Telugu words have been dated back to at least 400 B.C! Telugu is also the most used language in the popular Carnatic Music. It’s always interesting to know more about your roots. If these facts have aroused your interest, visit this page for a detailed history of the Telugu language which has about 150 million speakers worldwide.

Use Windows Vista legally without Activation for a year

Brian Livingston, a Windows expert has revealed to users of windows that it is possible to use Windows Vista legally without Activation for a year. Though, Microsoft has labeled this a ‘hack’ to signify that it is illegal, it stated just a month ago that this process would not be a violation of the End User License Agreement (EULA).

Livingston revealed that a one-line command lets users postpone the activation up to three times. Combine this with the 30 day grace period that Vista comes with, and you have 120 days to activate the operating system. In fact, Livingston claims that Microsoft has built a feature in Vista that allows users to postpone activation not just three times but many times more.
Microsoft documented the key and described it as SkipRearm and describes it as follows:

SkipRearm specifies whether to run the Windows Software Licensing Rearm program. Rearming a computer restores the Windows system to the original licensing state. All licensing and registry data related to activation is either removed or reset. Any grace period timers are reset as well.
