Here are some of the most significant bugs from the past week in the BugBlog:

Apple iTunes 7.1 for Windows clears up some, but not all, of the incompatibilities with Microsoft Windows Vista. According to Apple, when using iTunes 7.1 and with your iPod connected to the Vista computer, you don't want to use the "Safely Remove Hardware" feature in your System Tray. You may end up with a corrupted iPod. If that happens, reconnect it to the computer, and in iTunes go to the iPod panel and click Restore. Then, only disconnect the iPod using the Eject button within iTunes.

According to discussions in a Microsoft forum, and in news reports, it appears that Microsoft Windows Live OneCare thinks that Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Express data files may be malware, and quarantines them. Older versions of Outlook, including Outlook 97 and 2000, seem to be targets, as well as Outlook Express. See more horror stories here.

It appears an outside attacker managed to add hostile code to WordPress 2.1.1 on the WordPress servers. While not everyone who installed WordPress 2.1.1 may be affected, WordPress is urging all its customers to upgrade to version 2.1.2 right away. You may also want to change passwords, too, if you use WordPress. See the full story .
