Looks slightly more fully-featured than GitX, but it's not open source and it's only free while it's in alpha and beta stages. Still, Mac OS X is sorely lacking a high-quality commercial GUI for git. - Steve Webster

The user agent string continues in its quest to be as stupid as possible with Opera 10 AKA Opera/9.80.

Over the past few days, I've mentioned how impressive Antivirus XP 2008 (and its friends with similar names) is. It's a truely horrible bit of malware that has managed a vast collection of infections and is exceptionally difficult to remove. A friend I have to works in tech support said that about a third of this companies clients had fallen prey to this one. - David Dorward
