Security researchers have discovered an attack aimed at would-be visitors to Google.com, one that attempts to download malicious programs onto the computers of people who simply mistype the search giant’s Web address. According to security specialist F-Secure, unsuspecting Web surfers may be bombarded with various types of Trojan horse threats, spyware and backdoors when they go to “Googkle.com.” The scheme is meant to take advantage of sloppy or hurried typists, given that on most keyboards the letter “k” key sits next to the “l” needed to type “Google.”

Microsoft’s Bill Mitchell wishes consumers were as excited about buying laptops as they are about buying cell phones. Unfortunately, says Mitchell, head of the company’s mobile PC efforts, there are good reasons 700 million cell phones were sold last year, compared with about 50 million laptops. Portable computers are too bulky, too slow and too quick to run out of juice. Microsoft plans to address some of these shortcomings in Longhorn, the new version of Windows that’s scheduled for release next year. To address the power issue, Microsoft is pushing laptop makers to add features such as flash memory-equipped drives, reducing the number of times a computer must spin a power-hungry hard drive.

Wireless hackers in the United Kingdom could soon face a new obstacle to stealing information. The British government has endorsed a transparent film that can block Wi-Fi transmissions and other wireless signals from traveling through windows. The film, called SpyGuard, can be laminated or fitted inside windows to prevent remote eavesdroppers from penetrating rooms with infrared or Wi-Fi signals to steal information or access private networks. To stop Wi-Fi signals “leaking” from a room, the walls are also covered with a layer of paint that contains the same metals as the SpyGuard film. The film can even prevent hackers from stealing information from the light flicker emitted from computer monitors and reflected on a window.
