Now I want this interesting new gmail feature for my own personal use too! Call it beta if you want, go ahead, it seems to be working well enough already.

Who should I address my own Feature Request to at the GOOG? Maybe Fat Chance?

According to RSA, the malware is being delivered via email. In Brazil, when banking customers access their online banking site for the first time, they are often asked to install a security plugin. When the customer does so, a protection service is created and starts running on the PC. In addition, some shared libraries are also installed on the system and are loaded by the browser in order to help provide protection for customers during online banking operations, RSA noted.

However, the Boleto malware the company detected searches for specific versions of client side security plug-ins detects their shared libraries and patches them in real-time to dodge security. In one case, RSA analysts noticed that the malware accessed the plugin's memory area and modified a conditional JMP to a regular JMP operation, thereby thwarting the plugin's capabilities.

What platforms does this malware operate on exactly? The TFA doesn't say.

I can tell you for a fact, a free Class 1 StartSSL certificate can achieve an A+ rating from ssllabs.com when/if the technical server configuration is correct, because I saw it happen just this week on a server somewhere. StartSSL seems to make a profit by allowing newbies a free, documented (but otherwise 'supported' to what extent I didn't test at all...) learning process and having to pay higher than normal revocation fees to get everything functional and correctly setup. I made this mistake once myself, and then realized it was simply cheaper to pay about $15 for a new Class 2 certificate from Dreamhost SSL than to pay StartSSL to revoke my free, erroneous-URL certificate from them. StartSSL looks like a really good operation, but you really need to know what you are doing to really save money.

Here's a really good article to help newbie NGINX admins secure their servers using free StartSSL Class 1 certificates: https://konklone.com/post/swit...

What I've learned lately in my own research in this area is there's further differentiation of certificate values, such as the green Class 3 certificates which I semi-understand require more documentation to be filed (like passport scans?) and higher fees.

Seriously, this post should be modded up as informative. Thanks for taking the time to write it. It was wrong to be down-modded so. People might disagree with you, but you're certainly not an anonymous coward!

Supposing PayPal takes full financial responsibility, why should you care so much? As it is in their best interest to do so, let's see what how they follow through.

'2012 A Space Odyssey' probably still feels fresh to you because it was only two years ago.

And Han shot first, because I was there when he did it, and I saw him do it.

They're already doing DNS, so at minimum, I'd expect SSL certification services coming next.

Brilliant. Of course. This just makes so much sense now.

This is very good news, thank you!
[sarcasm]Hopefully Google will start to promote open-source Chromium more heavily, as opposed to registered-account-required Chrome. [/sarcasm]

You might very well be mistaken. XXX is intrinsic to the coat of arms of Amsterdam. Obviously this fine demo comes from a developer working for the city government, you insensitive clod!

There are several explanations why this is so, with fire, flood, pestilence being the prevalent theory.

Firefox has had a sessions plugin for years already, that I couldn't live without. The closest thing I found to use in Chrome can't hold a candle to it:

Another extremely useful FF extension is called Scrapbook, which I use to collect and prioritize web pages, sometimes ads I am interested in, saving only the precise HTML part I want to my disk, note-like. It also saves a link to the original source, which may or may not disappear as time passes.

Not to mention Adblock Plus, FireBug, bla bla bla.

That's just like before I wrapped the fish and chips with it, I read the Daily Mirror first. Its a lot more than a wrapper; its a dog trainer too!

On Linux, it also seems to be impossible to install chrome extensions without a Google account. At least open-source firefox doesn't require registration just to make use of its open-source extension code. Mozilla also works to protect users against extensions that aren't kept up-to-date..
