So people with this product aren't going to be able to use it? Energizer didn't even make a tool to un-install it completely! How are novice users supposed to know where their sys32 directory is?]]>Mar 8th 2010 4:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/energizer-confirms-software-vulnerability-in-duo-charging-softwa/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/energizer-confirms-software-vulnerability-in-duo-charging-softwa/Mar 8th 2010 4:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/energizer-confirms-software-vulnerability-in-duo-charging-softwa/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/energizer-confirms-software-vulnerability-in-duo-charging-softwa/
It's hilarious... just simply charging batteries via USB can lead to backdoor hacking and data-mining...

No one thought this could be an issue? No one???

It's a good idea to charge via USB, of course... (not the backdoor hacking - that was a bad judgment call there)... a little tech support, patch fix would have sorted this out, sure, but you can't help to overlook the possibility of a stronger attack through this vehicle of charging, now can you?]]>Mar 8th 2010 7:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/energizer-confirms-software-vulnerability-in-duo-charging-softwa/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/energizer-confirms-software-vulnerability-in-duo-charging-softwa/Canon did this to the SD430 Wireless. When Vista and IE 7 came out, they basically said screw it, we're done, and support beyond Windows XP and IE 6 was cut even though the camera was relatively new.
I can't believe huge companies can get away with crap like this.]]>Mar 8th 2010 7:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/energizer-confirms-software-vulnerability-in-duo-charging-softwa/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/energizer-confirms-software-vulnerability-in-duo-charging-softwa/yeah and you would know lol :P]]>Mar 8th 2010 8:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/energizer-confirms-software-vulnerability-in-duo-charging-softwa/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/08/energizer-confirms-software-vulnerability-in-duo-charging-softwa/I think there is more to this then what meets the eye
