Most likely they didn't, and there is no DB breach. Numerous foreign carriers will unlock iPhones they sell to comply with local laws or to please their customers. They are probably going through one or more legit foreign carriers.
Carriers that performs unlocks are not allowed/able to unlock IMEIs that are registered to other carriers. When this services was being offered for only a small number of carriers, yes, it seemed likely that the unlockers had paid off employees within those few carriers. That they are able to offer it for basically all carriers now implies that they have discovered a vulnerability. Could be they are spoofing the certificates of all carriers, resulting in some terminal they have appearing to be signed for that carriers. Could be they have gained access to credentials that give them broader access. It is not just a simple matter of having a compromised employee at a single carrier anymore.

Having Apache running on your computer, and the appropriate ports open on your firewall does theoretically make your computer more vulnerable, but in reality it's definitely not a "sure fire way to get hacked". As long as you take appropriate security measures, like having your firewall set up correctly and turning off things such as Server Signature your chances of getting hacked are quite slim. Apache is what powers a large portion of websites across the world, and if it in itself was that vulnerable websites would go down a lot.
Having a dynamic IP will greatly decrease your chances of getting hacked, as well, because it will change each time your modem gets reset, making your virtually un-findable for any would-be hackers. (Unless you use some sort of DynDNS service that is).
I agree with some parts of what you stated. For starters, if you use Apple's supplied version of Apache (I'm not sure what they currently ship), then you are stuck with that version until they supply any patches for it.
As for ServerSignature, that's fairly useless, as that's considered security by obscurity. You can hide the server you are running, but there are still ways to figure out what server you have.
Also, having a dynamic IP may prevent an individual hacker, but does nothing for bots and worms. Most of the major worms scan entire subnets, so merely having an open port increases your vulnerability.

A quick question regarding the new Home Share feature in itunes.
I have updated my iPad to the 4.3 software and I can now stream vinyl rips from my macbook to the iPad which won't transfer via syncing. The albums are all 24bit/96khz so I'm wondering if anyone knows what they are being compressed to using home share.
Thanks for your help.

yes wait for the powerbook G5
(heheheheheheh i have always wanted to say that)
since there will never be a powerbook G5 enjoy the waitYes, definitely wait for the PowerBook G5.
>fiftyfive
Don't you read any of the recent new from Apple?
Like the switch to Intel in 2006 -- which would make a PowerBook G5 as likely to be introduced as Pauly Shore being elected President.

Wanna keep the old thing alive.
Thanks!

Actually i had an iMac G3 as a server to my at the time main computer, the eMac. surprisingly it was fast, the iMac had a bigger hard drive so i'd keep my web design apps on it's server partition and connect to server when i needed them. I used sharepoints on OS X Jaguar. Worked really well, I'd also stream videos and store files. Suprising what you can do with a 266 Mhz iMac G3 with only 96 mb of ram.

Maybe someone here can shed some light on this problem. I am using DP2 and for some reason, preview wont forget files after they've been closed. All of the files in the list have been closed, but for some reason, they are still displayed in this list after they've been closed. I can click on them and they open like they were just minimized. Any ideas what could be going on here?

wow a original :)and for a absolute bargain price :eek:so i guess you got enough left over for getting a bit more ram , as there is nothing these little buggers like more then getting ram :D
they like to take two 144-pin PC66 SO-DIMM 256mb and a great opportunity to clean it inside as the original iMac have a little fan inside
here a how too

The Cinema Display doesn't work with VGA. It requires a digital input, which is either single link DVI (1280x800) or dual link (2560x1600).
There is no way around this but to buy another display or different computer.

hmm... I probably won't sell it for $450 then....
I went to everymac and thought I hit a fair price.
What list value are you referring to? (I am not doubting just wondering)
I am open to offers as mentioned before!
Thanks for pointing that out.

If anything it's more information oriented.
