Windows Monitoring On A Budget Thanks To Your iPhone - Published on 01/20/10
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Independent developer Steve Jarman today releases Weave 1.1, an iPhone-centric monitoring and alerting solution for Windows-based hosts. This agent-based system allows server administrators and engineers to receive notifications of potential problems within their IT infrastructure, as well as providing the ability to perform numerous management tasks remotely via their iPhone or iPod Touch device, from any location, all via a standard internet connection.
Sydney, Australia - Independent developer Steve Jarman today is pleased to release Weave 1.1, an iPhone-centric monitoring and alerting solution for Windows-based hosts. This agent-based system allows server administrators and engineers to receive notifications of potential problems within their IT infrastructure, as well as providing the ability to perform numerous management tasks remotely via their iPhone or iPod Touch device, from any location, all via a standard internet connection.
The ability to monitor IT infrastructure has become increasingly important as organisations have become more reliant on their technology. Some organisations do not see the value in, or simply cannot afford, large-scale monitoring solutions and leave themselves somewhat at risk. Weave is one solution to this problem, offering an easily configured, inexpensive solution to monitoring and diagnosing Windows-based systems within small to medium organisations.
A Weave implementation involves the installation of a small Windows service (called the Weave System Agent) on each system that is being monitored. The agent submits information regarding the system's performance to a central database via a standard internet connection, as well as periodically checking for requests being made by engineers via their devices. Additionally, performance data is compared against configured thresholds to determine whether or not a performance alert should be raised. System outages can be detected via a peer-availability system in which each monitored host periodically checks the response of its fellow systems.
The Weave System Agent utilizes WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) and therefore does not require the additional configuration of SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) systems.
The Weave iPhone app serves as a viewer for the information submitted by the agent, and as such, requires only a standard internet connection for full functionality. Users are not required to connect to their organisation's network via any form of VPN (Virtual Private Network). Users can also perform tasks such as process terminations, service restarts, and even system restarts via their device from any remote location. Alerts are delivered to users via the push notification service and email.
Teams of engineers can view the same organisational data using individually purchased copies of the Weave app on their devices. The Weave agent can be freely downloaded and installed on any number of Windows systems. Weave has been designed from conception to be a serious solution in the Windows monitoring space, providing genuine value to its users, and genuine benefit to their organisation.
Device requirements:
* iPhone or iPod Touch device running OS 3.1.2 or later
System requirements:
* Any Windows host
Pricing and Availability:
Weave 1.1 is $9.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Business category.

7. iHeadache 1.2 for iPhone - Most Complete Headache Analysis App Avail

iHeadache 1.2 for iPhone - Most Complete Headache Analysis App Available - Published on 01/20/10
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
BetterQOL, Inc. today announces the release of iHeadache 1.2 for iPhone and iPod Touch users and iHeadache 1.0 for BlackBerry users. iHeadache is an expert system for classifying, analyzing and tracking all facets of headache pain and disability, including symptoms, triggers and medications. It is the only App that delves into a fully comprehensive analysis of headaches and their triggers. The application creates custom reports for physicians and stores fifteen months of detailed headache data.
Bellaire, TX - BetterQOL, Inc., the developers of iHeadache, have released the latest version of their headache tracking program. iHeadache is the only App that delves into a fully comprehensive analysis of headaches and their triggers. The application creates custom reports for physicians and stores fifteen months of detailed headache data. iHeadache is an expert system for classifying, analyzing and tracking all facets of headache pain and disability, including symptoms, triggers and medications.
Developed by neurologist, researcher and headache specialist, Dr. Brian D. Loftus, the app has unique capabilities not available in other applications dealing with headaches. "This software is unique in that it captures data from the patient in order to generate reports specifically formatted for their physician," explained Dr. Loftus. "It's the first step to optimized headache care."
The four stars plus app is able to analyze a patient's headache using the International Headache Society criteria (IHS) to differentiate the main types - migraine, probable migraine and tension. It keeps count of the number of headaches monthly, which helps to pinpoint patterns and determine if a headache is chronic. Medication tracking is also used to help a doctor decide if a patient is having rebound headaches from medication overuse.
iHeadache creates reports over periods of time, indicating not only the type and number of headaches and medication used but also assesses the level of disability involved, based on a standardized disability scale called the Migraine Disability Assessment Scale (MIDAS) and the time the user is disabled.
Information recorded, tracked and stored by iHeadache:
* Symptoms
* Duration and severity
* Disability and impact
* Medication and usage (more the 25 system medications preloaded)
* Number of headaches
* Headache triggers
Reports generated by iHeadache can be broken down into 28 or 30 day periods or by specific months for presenting to a physician:
* The types of headaches a patient has
* The number of headaches during a specified period of time
* Medications and dosages
* The length of time a patient is completely and partially disabled
* A patient's MIDAS (Migraine Disability Assessment Scale) score
* The sum of a patient's headache triggers
* Notes
The app allows users to create custom triggers and medications, as well as enter notes about each headache. All of the information is stored for fifteen months, which is long enough to unearth patterns and provide clues for optimized patient care.
iHeadache Lite is available for a free trial but limits users to two weeks of data storage. iHeadache 1.0 for BlackBerry is also now available. It offers the same features as iHeadache 1.2 for iPhone and iPod except for trigger tracking which will be available in version 1.1. iHeadache developers are already planning to sync their app with a specialty website in a future release.
Device Requirements
* iPhone or iPod Touch 2.2.1 or later
Pricing and Availability
iHeadache 1.2 is only $4.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Medical category. A portion of the proceeds from iHeadahe is donated to medical research. Promo codes are available for qualified reviewers. Please specify the website or blog you represent when making your request.

Says Steve Barham, Director and Lead Director of Urban Anomaly, "I don't like talking to customer service and I think there are a lot of people out there like me. Everyone I talk to says that apps like this are going to revolutionize the way citizens interact with the government."
Version 2.01 includes a pinpoint tool that improves the accuracy of the iPhone's GPS coordinates, and also provides the physical address of the problem, boosting the agency's ability to locate and resolve the issue.
The recent development of 311 is quickly becoming the universal concept for one-stop customer service with city and municipal offices for reporting such things as potholes, graffiti, abandoned cars or problems with a city bus. Some reports are suggesting that the impact of this new technology will change the way that these branches of authority do business.
Many agencies are required to respond to emails in a timely manner, which makes them accountable to citizen issue reports rather than ignore them. The 311 Universal app helps ordinary people get their voices heard by officials, in a really fast and easy way.
Using the 311 Universal app is simply a matter of taking a photo and releasing the report with the 'send' button. There's no need to wait for the picture to upload because the app continues working in the background, even if the application is closed. The users complaint, along with GPS co-ordinates of the location, is then en route to the appropriate government office.
The 311 Universal app is not tailored to any specific city. Any location that has a single customer service email address works. As long as a city or municipality accepts email, an issue will reach its intended destination.
311 Universal Features:
* Photo attachments
* GPS co-ordinates
* Link to the location
* Optional notes and contact info
* Public/private property designation
* Pinpoint function for a faster way to generate an exact location and physical address regardless of iPhone GPS accuracy.
The app does not require complicated server links as 311 email is universal. That makes it one of the easiest and fastest venues for issue reporting on the market today.
With 311 Universal, citizens can now communicate directly to various departments within a city and municipality. It only takes 60 seconds or so for people to contribute to the safety of their neighborhoods or city via the appropriate offices.
Device Requirements
* iPhone 3.0 or later
Pricing and Availability
311 Universal 2.01 is only $0.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Utilities category. Promo codes are available for qualified reviewers. Please specify the website or blog you represent when making your request.

Stock Decisions a Snap with Stock Share Calculator 1.01 App for iPhone - Published on 01/20/10
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Production Sound Mix Inc. has released Stock Share Calculator 1.01 for iPhone and iPod Touch users. The app provides a quick, convenient way for users to make instant decisions regarding their stock portfolios. Stock Share Calculator arms investors with information that helps them decide if they should buy, sell, or hold off on making a commitment. The Stock Share Calculator has a simple interface that is easy to understand and navigate through.
Waretown, NJ - Announcing that Production Sound Mix Inc., the developer of Stock Share Calculator, has released the perfect solution for making snap decisions when it comes to buying and trading shares. The app provides a quick, convenient way for users to make instant decisions regarding their stock portfolios. Stock Share Calculator arms investors with information that helps them decide if they should buy, sell, or hold off on making a commitment.
The Stock Share Calculator app is the product of one man's desire for a better, faster, more efficient method of measuring the viability of a stock trade. As an amateur day-trader on the New York Stock Exchange, Production Sound Mix president, Zsolt Magyar, needed a way to calculate the number of shares he could afford to buy, figure out the cost of a trade, including adjustable flat fee per trade or adjustable commission per share and the percentage change of a share price; all at lightning fast speed.
Since there were no apps available that could perform these functions, Magyar created one, "I saw the perfect solution to make this app that is faster than the excel spreadsheet, looks better, is easier to use and doesn't take any real estate on the computer screen".
The Stock Share Calculator has a simple interface that is easy to understand and navigate through. A user just needs to input the broker's fee, the number of shares desired and the buying power a user has. From that information, the Stock Share Calculator analyzes exactly how many shares a user can purchase without going into the red.
App users can take advantage of the Sell Price feature to calculate the percentage of change in a share price. Once the share price is entered, a profit wheel automatically calculates and displays the percentage of change. There is also the option of scrolling the profit wheel to the percentage change a user is hoping to get. This function displays the selling price required to achieve that percentage and profit.
The Stock Share Calculator is the closest thing to having a personal trader and accountant that a user can get without hiring people.
About Stock Share Calculator
Stock Share Calculator is a simple application for calculating how many shares you can buy for any given stock buying power. It also includes a percentage calculator that shows your share price increased or decreased by the percentage that you adjust with the profit wheel.
Device Requirements:
* iPhone or iPod Touch 2G, 3G, 3GS, OS2.0
Pricing and Availability:
Stock Share Calculator 1.01 is only $0.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Finance category. Promo codes are available for qualified reviewers. Please specify the website or blog you represent when making your request.

IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Hong Kong based bambooapps is pleased to announce Keep Your Word 2.0, an important update to their popular vocabulary and flashcard cataloger and trainer for Macintosh and iPhone devices. Keep Your Word lets language students and educators alike build their own dictionary by classifying and grouping terms exactly as they wish. Featuring a comfortable and simple user interface, users can collect, classify and then memorize as well as track their progress.
Ma On Shan, Hong Kong - bambooapps is pleased to announce Keep Your Word 2.0, an important update to their popular vocabulary and flashcard cataloger and trainer for Macintosh and iPhone devices. Keep Your Word lets language students and educators alike build their own dictionary by classifying and grouping terms exactly as they wish.
Specifically oriented towards learning a vocabulary, or a list of terms, Keep Your Word features a comfortable and easy-to-use iTunes-like interface. The application places emphasis on three different stages (Collect, Classify and Memorize) to better help learn any language.
Keep Your Word is designed to:
* Let you build a dictionary of terms
* Organize and classify words
* Find words quickly
* Do exercises
Serving as a collection of words to remember, users collect all the words they need to study, then add sound, images, and other metadata, such as comments, or keyword tags. Word collections can then be organized by static categories, or by using Keep Your Word's smart groups based on the collection's metadata (tag-based, date-based, etc.).
Keep Your Word features six different exercise modes, including a flashcard quiz, written tests, memory review, and a unique Quick Quiz. Keep Your Word automatically tracks study progress, and optionally selects the words for the exercise modes according to spaced repetition algorithms. Combined with Keep Your Word's exercise modes and tracking, helps dramatically with retention. And with bambooapps' free and complementary iPhone client, makes studying on-the-go a breeze.
Feature Highlights:
* Comfortable and simple User Interface
* Six different Exercise Modes
* Add sound, images, and other metadata
* Tracks study progress
* Free complementary iPhone client
"I started the development of Keep Your Word when I started studying Cantonese," said Cesar Tardaguila, founder of bambooapps. "I noticed that none of the available tools could fit my needs, such as easy word cataloging, and quick word finding."
Minimum Requirements:
* Mac OS X Version 10.5 Leopard or later (Snow Leopard Compatible)
* Universal Binary for PowerPC and Intel
* 5.6 MB Hard Drive space
* Internet Connection
Pricing and Availability:
Keep Your Word 2.0 is priced at only $34.95 (USD). A five site license is available for $69.95. A full-featured demo is available for download. Upgrades from earlier versions of Keep Your Word are $13.98, and free to users who purchased Keep Your Word on or after September 1, 2009. There is also a free iPhone and iPod Touch client available to study on the go.

Pointing to the Flaw
The vulnerability in IE is an invalid pointer reference, Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) said in security advisory 979352, which it issued on Thursday. Under certain conditions, the invalid pointer can be accessed after an object is deleted, the advisory states. In specially crafted attacks, like the ones launched against Google and its customers, IE can allow remote execution of code when the flaw is exploited.
A pointer is a programming language data type whose value points, or refers, to another value stored elsewhere in the computer's memory. Pointers are also used to hold the addresses of entry points for called subroutines in procedural programming and for runtime linking to dynamic link libraries (DLLs). There are risks associated with using pointers because they allow both protected and unprotected access to memory addresses.
The attacks have been restricted to IE 6, Redmond's advisory states, although they will work on IE 7 and IE 8 as well. The impact of the vulnerability is limited by IE's Protected Mode on Windows operating systems starting with Vista. By default, IE runs in a restricted mode known as "Enhanced Security Configuration" on Windows Server 2003 and 2008. This also mitigates the threat because it sets the security level for the Internet zone to high, according to Microsoft.
This attack can only be launched if victims go to infected Web sites. "An attacker would have no way to force users to visit these Web sites," the advisory reads. The hackers use trickery, typically by getting victims to click on a link in an e-mail or instant messaging message that takes them to the infected site.
Once a victim visits an infected Web site, the site downloads a fake JPEG image through the IE flaw. This then decodes and runs that to download other malware files, McAfee's Alperovitch said. The creator of the link is still not known.
The Aurora Assault
The exploit can easily be tweaked to work with every version of the browser, McAfee's Alperovitch pointed out. It consists of several files, each a different piece of malware. "The files have different capabilities, and we're still conducting a comprehensive analysis," Alperovitch said. "It's possible there are other exploits that we haven't discovered yet in this cocktail."
Security vendors are pulling out all the stops to combat this attack. "We've got people working around the world 24 by seven on this thing, and have sent people out to several companies that were attacked to find out what happened," Alperovitch said. Symantec (Nasdaq: SYMC) and Juniper Networks are also investigating the attacks.
McAfee's Security Insider Blog calls the attack "Aurora," after the filepath on the attacker's machine that was included in two of the malware binaries associated with the attack. That filepath is typically inserted by code compilers to indicate where debug symbols and source code are located on the developer's PC.
Why were the attacks focused on Internet Explorer 6, which was launched back in 2001? Why is it that the more than 30 large enterprises which were apparently victims of the malware had not upgrade to later versions of the browser, when they have the sophistication and technical resources to do so? "A lot of the companies that are victims are very large multinational corporations and have a lot of people, so upgrading takes a long time," Alperovitch explained.
In any event, it would have been impossible to stop the attack, Michael Sutton, vice president of security research at ZScaler, told TechNewsWorld. "This is a zero-day exploit, so nobody was aware of this and they couldn't filter it out," he explained. "A targeted attack using a zero-day vulnerability is very difficult to protect against."
A zero-day attack is one targeted at application vulnerabilities that are not widely known to the security industry, or even to the software developer.
The Manly Art of Computer Self-Defense
Protection against the attack was made more difficult because the malware authors were apparently expert coders. "The attack was obfuscated, and, aside from a bunch of binary characters that were in JavaScript, there's very little JavaScript code that would be seen on the network by an intrusion detection system or antivirus or antispam software," Michael Geide, senior security researcher at Zscaler, told TechNewsWorld. Most of the JavaScript was encrypted or encoded and would be decoded by the "small snippet" of JavaScript visible on the network, he explained.
Many antimalware packages either automatically block JavaScript or require users to approve running it on their computers. Obfuscated code is code that has been made difficult to read; malware authors obfuscate their code to make it difficult to detect.
Although the attacks hit Google corporate and individual customers, the Internet giant is not to blame, Sutton said. "Gmail didn't really play any role in letting the attack occur; this was an Internet Explorer attack that was a combination of exploiting the email and good social engineering."
Is there any way to protect against zero-day attacks? Yes, Sutton said. Instead of just relying on antivirus or antimalware software, get defense in depth. This means using several different applications to provide layers of defense.
"With multiple layers of protection, an attack might get past one layer, but other applications can see the results, such as binaries being downloaded or callouts to suspicious hosts, and meanwhile you're monitoring your logs for suspicious activity," Sutton explained. "If something gets past one layer, it will be detected by another."
