disastrous trail of the most-invasive computer virus ever.

5. POTENT NEW TOOL AIDS WEB ATTACKERS

http://cgi.zdnet.com/slink?33410:8430877

"Mstream," a new program that could help would-be cyberattackers,
requires fewer resources to launch the type of distributed denial-
of-service attack that can cripple a website.


_____________Fresh Gear__________________________
6. $100 MP3 PLAYER DOES CDS

http://cgi.zdnet.com/slink?33411:8430877

Why pay hundreds of dollars for a portable MP3 player, only to be
stuck with just a half-hour of audio? The EasyBuy2000 MPTrip
Discman plays regular audio CDs and CD-Rs filled with MP3 files--
making memory a moot point.

http://cgi.zdnet.com/slink?33413:8430877

Fans of "Diablo"-- a creepy, monster-slashing, spell-casting epic--
should be thrilled with the game's sequel. "Diablo II" retains most
of the original's best elements, while adding a deeper plot, faster
load times and better graphics.
