Microsoft wireless keyboards hacked.


Researchers hack Microsoft wireless keyboards.

The protocol for securing some of Microsoft's wireless keyboards has been cracked, opening up the possibility of keystroke logging, according to Swiss security company Dreamlab Technologies. Researchers from the company have said they are also close to being able to use the hack to control affected computers remotely.

Same off topic nonsense. Nothing to do with amateur science.

I assume then, all the universities throughout the world which have Computer Science as a science degree ARE WRONG!?!

It's not very appropriate for this forum. Next thing you know we have a technoblog which is posting the new architecture details for intels new quad processor.

Also, this is nothing new. Wireless crap can and will be hacked. Wired stuff is more secure, uses no batteries and has a faster response time.

Topic closed.




One shouldn't accept or resort to the mutilation of science to appease the mentally impaired.
