Check out Streamload. It's an online storage service that [allows you to access, and even stream, your favorite music and videos to any Web-connected PC in the world? Or how about sharing your fancy, high-resolution photos with the folks back home through a simple URL in an e-mail ], plus you can use it for free if you accept some restrictions. If you're willing to shell out a few bucks per month it gets even better, because the service doesn't charge you for predetermined storage limits (as Xdrive does) or even by the amount of storage you actually use (like Data Deposit Box). Instead, Streamload charges for the amount of data you and your friends subsequently download from your account.

It's time to update the millions of Firefox 1.0 browsers that have been downloaded over the past 11 weeks. The Mozilla Foundation on Thursday released its first security update to Firefox, comprising a series of patches intended to prevent spoofing and phishing attacks and fix glitches that cause the browser to crash. The security update, Firefox 1.0.1, can be downloaded immediately at www.mozilla.org. The update covers a handful of security vulnerabilities and approximately 40 other fixes related to browser performance based on user feedback to Mozilla. The security vulnerabilities range from "moderately critical" in nature to not critical. None of them are highly critical, and there are no known exploits for any of the vulnerabilities.

A cyber thief in Wellington, New Zealand apparently installed keystroke-logging software at an Internet cafe that allowed him to harvest user names and passwords belonging to people who conducted online banking there. Consumers are being warned to use caution while banking on line. [Experts warn against using internet cafes when sending/receiving sensitive information. Who needs to be warned about this?!]
