AME Info, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, technology briefs

Feb 28, 2013 (AME Info - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) -- ADOBE ROLLS OUT PHOTOSHOP TOUCH FOR IPHONE, ANDROID: Adobe Systems has launched a touch edition of its popular Photoshop application for Apple's iPhone and iPod and Android smartphones, the Inquirer has reported. Launched following the success of its Photoshop Touch for tablets, the release brings "core features" of Adobe's desktop Photoshop software to mobile phone devices and offers "similar intuitive, touch-based gestures and features," the firm said.

STUXNET WAS DEVELOPED EARLIER THAN THOUGHT: SYMANTEC: Symantec Corp has uncovered a version of the Stuxnet computer virus that was used to attack Iran's nuclear programme in November 2007, two years earlier than previously thought, Reuters has reported. Symantec said its researchers had uncovered a piece of code, they called "Stuxnet 0.5," which was developed early as 2005, when Iran was still setting up its uranium enrichment facility, said Symantec researcher Liam O'Murchu. "It is really mind blowing that they were thinking about creating a project like that in 2005," O'Murchu told the news service. Symantec had previously uncovered evidence that planning for Stuxnet began in 2007.
