Web applications are supposed to make our internet life better but it seems that even this has been attacked by malignant cyberattackers. They have begun including Trojans in applications and widget sin social networking sites like Face and MySpace. According to researchers at Finjan, cyberattackers are now going to these social networking sites such to get more victims.
“Attacks will become more sophisticated by combining several services in order to heighten infection ratios and decrease the detection rate, while providing more robust and scalable attack frameworks,†Yuval Ben-Itzhak, chief technology officer, Finjan, said in a news release. “The focus will be on trojan technology as it enables maximum flexibility in terms of command and control. This adds another potentially malicious element to the ‘legitimate’ web traffic that needs to be examined by security solutions.â€
In short, before installing the app or widget that your friend sent you, confirm if it came from them. If it didn’t, kindly delete it immediately. If it did come from them, research on the app or widget from previous users.

Wikipedia describes HTML, as:
HTML, an initialism of Hypertext Markup Language, is the predominant markup language for web pages. It provides a means to describe the structure of text-based information in a document � by denoting certain text as headings, paragraphs, lists, and so on � and to supplement that text with interactive forms, embedded images, and other objects. HTML is written in the form of labels (known as tags), surrounded by angle brackets. HTML can also describe, to some degree, the appearance and semantics of a document, and can include embedded scripting language code which can affect the behavior of web browsers and other HTML processors.
HTML is also often used to refer to content of the MIME type text/html or even more broadly as a generic term for HTML whether in its XML-descended form (such as XHTML 1.0 and later) or its form descended directly from SGML (such as HTML 4.01 and earlier).
Google Web Toolkit (GWT) is an open source Java development framework that lets you escape the matrix of technologies that make writing AJAX applications so difficult and error prone. With GWT, you can develop and debug AJAX applications in the Java language using the Java development tools of your choice. When you deploy your application to production, the GWT compiler translates your Java application to browser-compliant JavaScript and HTML.

If the data growth is unchecked, it will affect all other areas of the company and also make it impossible for full utilization of SCM, ERP, and CRM applications. This will potentially impact business performance and decrease productivity.
If there are large data volumes, it will also slow down the reporting process and application response time. This will have a net effect of limited business decisions especially during the quarter and year-end close. If you will maintain large database applications, it will add to the cost, risk and complexity of the business. There will also be more time spent to perform routine maintenance and back-up activities.

1. Provide a Query Interface – One of the basic functions of web applications is to provide users with an interface for inputting data. The data is termed as a “query” or a “request” because this user-defined data is used to ask or make a request from a service on the web server machine.
2. Transmit User-Defined Query – The user-data is sent to a web server once it is received.
3. Perform Server Side Processing – The web server processes the user-data which it has received through a “middleware”.
4. Massage Data – The user-defined request indicates how the data should be processed.
5. Transmit Query Results – The processed data is now sent back to the client
6. Perform Client Side Processing – The sent data is displayed to the user.

Napster started the wave of file sharing service. It started the program to download pictures, music and other files which was copied by other P2P programs. Its popularity made it an icon in the entertainment and computer industry. Then it was followed by Kazaa, which is used to exchange mp3 files. It can also exchange other file types due to its use of FastTrack protocol. However, Kazaa saw its early decline when it was picked out as a target of copyright-related lawsuits. Furthermore, it has become infamous because of the large number of Trojans, worms, and viruses that it supports.
