OurTube lets you manage and watch YouTube Videos from your phpnuke-based CMS, for full details on its feaures check out this page. The list of changes on this release are as follow:
OurTube 1.2 - 2010/01/27
Downloading Videos works again, and improved! Previously we just tried to download standard FLV videos, while we'll try now to download the highest quality available video, pre-defined videos are HD 1080p, HD 720p, Standard MP4, FLV HQ 480p, FLV LQ 360p, FLV LegacyHQ, and FLV LegacyLQ. The one which found first will be downloaded (forwarded to you)
Fixed links from pointing to your site root, in case it's in a subfolder.
We'll now use cURL if it's available, else fallback to the build-in engine.
Improved AJAX management, handling and routines.
Changed encoding algorithm for YouTube Videos ID so that it's more browser friendly and better suitable for modrewrite-enabled websites.
DESCRIPTION: Some vulnerabilities and weaknesses have been reported in Google Chrome, where some have unknown impacts and others can be exploited by malicious people to disclose potentially sensitive information, bypass certain security restrictions, or compromise a user's system.

Apache SpamAssassin 3.3.0 released
nb1 writes "Apache SpamAssassin 3.3.0 is a mature, wide-spectrum, extensible email filtering package deployed by hundreds of thousands of organizations worldwide.
Apache SpamAssassin 3.3.0 represents a major shift in how SpamAssassin rules (the actual patterns that help to identify spam) are updated. Rules are now separate from the core product and are instead downloaded using "sa-update," SpamAssassin's automatic update software. This method was optional with the 3.2.x series of releases and has proven to be very popular.
SpamAssassin provides a comprehensive set of features and support for methods and standards such as text based patterns, bayesian scoring, DNS based black and white lists, DKIM and SPF sender authentication, and email signature clearing houses. The software utilizes a principle of identifying multiple reasons for classifying an email as spam to improve accuracy and decrease the chance of legitimate emails being incorrectly identified as spam

NukeTAGS 2.1 has been released.
meotoo writes "
A new version of the popular TagClouds module for phpnuke-based CMSs has been just released, and its ChangeLog is as follow:
NukeTAGS 2.1 - 2010/01/21
TagClouds for pages whose access is restricted to non-registered users will no longer be gathered while visited by such users...
OPTIMIZE TABLE will be now used after expunging tags for old pages.
index.php?newlang=[lang] will be now ignored from being gathered.
Added a new configuration option which will control how to handle non-english (or non-yoursitelang, better say) pages. Previously we gathered pages the same way regardless the user's choosen-language, we'll now take this into account. What this mean, you ask? well, if your site's language is English and a user is viewing it in German, the tagclouds for your pages could be overwritten with German words as if they are in English. The new configuration option is 'langDiff' and its possible values are:
Do not handle pages which aren't in your site's language
Handle pages language regardless (that's how it worked previously)
Handle yoursitelang and non-yoursitelang pages individually.

Facebook Friends Apache Software Foundation with $100K Sponsorship
nb1 writes "Head over to the Apache Software Foundation's website and you'll see an announcement posted by ASF Chairman Jim Jagielski welcoming Facebook as the open-source company's newest sponsor.
"With Open Source in its DNA, Facebook is an enthusiastic champion and active contributor to the ASF, including the Hive subproject of Apache Hadoop, as well as the popular incubating projects Thrift and Cassandra -- all originally developed by Facebook," Jagielski wrote.
Per the announcement, Facebook signed on as a platinum-level sponsor, the highest membership level available and one which requires an annual donation of at least $100,000. Other membership levels include Gold ($40K/year), Silver ($20K/year), and Bronze ($5K/year).

Google Brings Friend Connect, Social Features to Drupal & Joomla, RN next?
jestrella writes "I'm happy to announce that Google Friend Connect features are now also available for Drupal and Joomla. Now that Friend Connect is integrated with these popular open source CMS platforms, site owners can make registration easier for users and offer them a set of social features -- all without writing a single line of code. Even site owners without programming experience can add these plug-ins.
What do you think? Would you like to see something like that core integrated into RavenNuke CMS? Would it be viable?"

Security Alert: Ice Skating Car Video Black Hat SEO
Websense Security Labs(TM) ThreatSeeker(TM) Network has discovered that a popular video called "Paignton Ice Skating for Cars" has been targeted by both SEO poisoning attacks as well as Web spam.
As a wave of icy weather is currently hitting large parts of Europe, the video has proved to be very popular, with currently more than 850,000 hits on Yahoo Video. A different uploaded version on YouTube has had more than 1 million views so far. Criminals have used the video's popularity as an opportunity to spread rogue anti-virus programs by poisoning the search results of major search engines. When the term "ice skating car" is searched via Google, nearly half of the search results on the first page redirect the user to rogue anti-virus sites. Clicking any of those links takes the user to a Web site with the message: "Your PC is at risk of virus and malware attack." That's an old trick used to lure unsuspecting users to download a fake anti-virus installer.
The black search results in Google redirect the user through several sites, most of which are hosted in Russia, before finally landing in the rogue anti-virus site. The criminals often change the second site in the redirection chain in order to make it harder to detect. The file has a relatively low AV detection rate.
Websense® Messaging and Websense Web Security customers are protected against this attack.

Office.Microsoft.Com Search Results Can Lead To Rogue Anti-Virus
Websense Security Labs™ ThreatSeeker™ Network has detected that search results on office.microsoft.com can lead users to a Rogue AV page.
Users looking for information related to help with Office products on Microsoft’s own site are being targeted. Users may be unaware that, when they type in search queries on the site, Microsoft scours its own Web site for results, but also pulls in results from the broader Web. Because the URL for the search results begins with http://office.microsoft.com, this is particularly troubling for users who trust sites simply because of their reputation.
