This post has some great information for parents as it relates to children using these “microblogging” sites.

…”These sites aren’t nearly as popular with teens as MySpace and Facebook. Twitter says it’s only for people 18 and up — but it doesn’t ask your age when you set up an account. Plurk is aimed at people 13 and up.”

Microsoft has released updates to address vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows, Internet Explorer, Host
Integration Server, and Office as part of the Microsoft Security Bulletin Summary for October 2008. These vulnerabilities may allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code, obtain sensitive information or operate with elevated privileges.

US-CERT encourages users and administrators to review the bulletins and follow best-practice security policies to determine which updates should be applied.
