Report: Russian software tycoon's son 'missing' - World news - Europe - Russia - msnbc.com

We met Kaspersky in 2001 at Comdex. He was a very down to earth guy, although that was about 750 million dollars ago.

I am surprised this sort of thing hasn't happened sooner. Russian organized crime is VERY active and aggressive and law enforcement is often compromised. I wish him and his son the best in this horrible situation.

Windows 8 "pre-beta" Screenshots

Within Windows | Windows 8 Secrets: Windows Explorer Ribbon

Microsoft is rumored to be integrating the controversial "Ribbon" interface that it pioneered in it's Office 2007 product in Windows 8. The screenshots of a pre-beta version of Windows 8, if accurate, are an indication that this is in fact the case.

Microsoft's decision to go "Ribbon" in Office were very controversial, but have been accepted by most users in the interim, albeit begrudgingly. It will be interesting to see users reaction when Windows 8 beta is distributed. I reckon you may hear a lot of moaning...

Big deal? Sorta. No data other than name and email address have been accessed, but that will be enough for some people to fall prey to these guys pretending to be US Bank, Tivo or Fry's.

The "real" world - both virtual and physical is a tough neighborhood. You don't have to live in Afghanistan to experience it.
