In today's daily news podcast, both our In Depth package and the Editor's Note look at the increasing influence of the rest of the world on the business of high technology. We also cover the latest updates on Microsoft's Vista, security vendors getting dinged for exploiting Apple flaws, a password-stealing Trojan, and an adware firm that admits its error and apologizes.
