Word vs Word challenges players to uncover a secret word between three and eight letters. Through strategic process of elimination, intuitive selection and a little luck, the winning player reveals the secret word first and is presented with that word's definition. As educational as it is entertaining, the app provides a social venue for learning new words and definitions. The game offers live turn-based play and chat messaging with friends and random opponents, or equally challenging solo matches.

According to Russell, Word vs Word is an accumulation of all things word game players find addictive, fun and rewarding.

Featuring gorgeous artwork and intense storylines, these digital comics and graphic novels based on the characters from the chart-topping game are sure to please fans new and old.

San Diego, California - Ape Entertainment, in association with independent game developer The Game Bakers, today unleashed a wave of adventure onto the App Store - the Squids Comic App for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch.

Additionally, SQUIDS and SQUIDS Wild West get free updates on the App Store with new content and in particular The Ballad of Clint and Sammo, a mini-comic book in two parts that reveals how the mighty Sammo first crossed path with the most wanted Squids Clint.

As for the comic app, Issue No. 1, entitled "SQUIDS: TO THE EDGE OF THE SEA," dives into the deepest part of the story when our heroes Steev, Clint, and the others investigate the secrets of the missing Winnick to uncover the mystery of the Black Torrent.

But wait, there's more cephalopod-tastic excitement in Issue No. 2, KA-POW! It's the continuation to our wall-busting first issue. Did Steev get in over his helmet? Can Clint rally the Squids against their Oozy opponents and save Winnick's home - and its many secrets - from the grasp of the nefarious Baron? Will anybody be able to catch that book-snatching shrimp? Find out when the action continues in SQUIDS: TO THE EDGE OF THE SEA #2!

Just Released: The Ultimate Sight Words Education App for iOS - Published on 12/04/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

For the first time ever, comes a Sight Word App for both Student and Teacher. Using the most up-to-date, scientifically derived list of 1,000 instant sight words. Ultimate Sight Words 1.0 comes with a wide range of features to teach kids how to recognize all the essential words needed to read 65 percent of all written English books, news and school materials. Also useful for Adult literacy programs or learning English as a foreign language.

Port of Spain, Trinidad And Tobago - Just released on November 30th after 3 1/2 months of painstaking development and testing is the most up to date sight words app in the iTunes App store. Now available at an introductory 50% off price, of $1.99 USD.

Ultimate Sight Words - Student and Teacher edition 1.0 was developed after research showed that teachers wanted more than just a simple sight word app. They wanted to be able to create student lists and track each student's progress, and have the ability to email the student's progress in the form of a chart and flagged words to the student's parents.

Top features include:
* iCloud Sync between devices (using the same Apple ID) so a student can continue where they left off regardless of whether they picked up the iPhone or iPad
* Multiple student lists, with photo
* Email-able results
* Professionally recorded voice
* Customizable delivery: flagged, non-flagged, 10 levels of 100 words
* Sub set groups within the levels
* Fun speed drill section
* No Ads, no in-app purchases

The Fry 1,000 Instant Words are a the most up-to-date list of the most common words used for teaching reading, writing, and spelling. This list was updated in the 1990's, whereas the Dolch list was created in the 1940's.

These high frequency words should be recognized instantly by readers. Dr. Edward B. Fry's Instant Words (which are often referred to as the "Fry Words") are the most common words used in English ranked in order of frequency.
* 25 words make up approximately 1/3 of all items published
* 100 words comprise approximately 1/2 of all of the words found in publications
* 300 words make up approximately 65% of all written material

Over half of every newspaper article, textbook, children's story, and novel is composed of these 300 words. It is difficult to write a sentence without using several of the first 300 words of the Fry 1000 Instant words. Consequently, students need to be able to read these first 300 Instant Words without a moment's hesitation.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone 3GS/4/4S/5, iPod touch (3rd/4th/5th generation), and iPad

New Apple Mac Trojan Called OSX/Dockster Found in the Wild - Published on 12/04/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

New Apple Mac Trojan Called OSX/Dockster Found in the Wild on Tibetan Website. A sample of a new Mac spyware called OSX/Dockster.A was found on VirusTotal on Friday, possibly as part of a test before pushing it to the public. This trojan has backdoor functionality, including a keylogger component that records an affected user�s typing. VirusBarrier X6 protects users from this malware with malware definitions dated November 30, 2012 or later.

London, United Kingdom - Malware: OSX/Dockster. Risk: Low; the threat is not known to be widespread and the vulnerability targeted by the exploit code is corrected by the latest version of Java.

Description: A sample of a new Mac spyware called OSX/Dockster.A was found on VirusTotal on Friday, possibly as part of a test before pushing it to the public. This trojan has backdoor functionality, including a keylogger component that records an affected user�s typing.

This malware is now known to be in the wild, on a website dedicated to the Dalai Lama that has been compromised to deliver the same exploit code as used by SabPab to push Dockster. (This Java vulnerability was also the same one used by Flashback.)

If it�s executed, the trojan deletes itself from the location where it was run and installs itself in the user�s home directory with the filename .Dockset. The file is not visible through Finder; however, if it�s running, it can be seen within OS X�s Activity Monitor. It creates a launch agent called mac.Dockset.deman so that the trojan will restart each time an affected user logs in. Once the trojan is active, it tries to contact the remote address itsec.eicp.net to await instructions.

The backdoor functionality of this trojan is quite basic. It provides a simple remote shell which allows the trojan�s controller remote access, allows the controller to download additional files, and it logs keystrokes.

Means of protection: VirusBarrier X6 protects users from this malware with malware definitions dated November 30, 2012 or later. VirusBarrier X6�s real-time scanner will detect the exploit code as OSX/SabPab.A and OSX/Dockster.A when it is dropped, and its Anti-Spyware protection will block any connections to remote servers if a user has installed the Trojan horse.

VirusBarrier Express and VirusBarrier Plus, available exclusively from the Mac App Store, detect this malware with malware definitions dated November 30, 2012 or later, but these programs do not have a real-time scanner due to limitations imposed by the Mac App Store; users should scan their Macs after they have updated to the latest malware definitions, or manually scan any installer packages they have downloaded if they seem suspicious.

For additional protection against this threat, update to the latest version of Java, which has fixed this vulnerability.
