Google Repairs Android
Google's Android OS may be small (small enough to drive the new Google phone)
but it has plenty of code it seems for hackers to attack. Case in point: Last
week, researchers showed how hackers can take over the phone by tricking the
user into going to a malicious Web page. With that control, your passwords could
be stolen, no matter how many obscure letters and characters they contain.
The patch is now
out and requires a simple restart.
