* Worldwide CTO George Kurtz leaves at end of OctoberBy Jim FinkleBOSTON, Oct 18 (Reuters) - Two senior technology executives have resigned from McAfee Inc, the anti-virus software maker that Intel Corp bought in February, according to a company spokeswoman.Worldwide Chief Technology Officer George Kurtz, who helped lead the company’s product strategy, will leave at the end of this month, the spokeswoman said.Kurtz could not be reached for comment.Vice President Dmitri Alperovitch, a highly regarded threat researcher whose work at the company help give it a reputation for conducting cutting-edge research on hacking, quietly left last month, without the company issuing any announcement.Alperovitch led a research team that produced several high-profile studies on suspected Chinese-government backed hackers during his tenure at McAfee.Those studies included a landmark January 2010 report in which Alperovitch coined the term “Operation Aurora” to describe attacks suspected by Chinese hackers on Google Inc and several dozen other companies. His team identified the malware used in those attacks, which exploited previously unknown flows in Microsoft Corp’s Internet Explorer browser.In August his team uncovered “Operation Shady RAT,” the biggest series of cyber attacks disclosed to date, which involved the infiltration of the networks of 72 organizations including the United Nations, governments and companies around the world.Alperovitch, who has been doing consulting since he left the company, declined to comment on the reason for his resignation.Company spokeswoman Heather Edell said the company is currently looking for replacements for the two executives.

Lohan, 25, was sentenced to 360 hours community service earlier this year as part of her sentence for stealing a gold necklace from a jewelry store. The “Mean Girls” actress also served 35 days under house arrest.The judge in the case warned Lohan to take the requirements seriously and complete her community service on time. If not, she might violate probation and be sent back to jail.Lohan has until May 2012 to complete the program and is due to return to court on October 19 for a progress meeting.Los Angeles District Attorney’s spokeswoman Jane Robison said Lohan was now working with the Red Cross after several missed visits at the women’s shelter.Celebrity website TMZ.com said Lohan repeatedly failed to show up at the women’s center and when she did, she stayed less than the required four-hour session.Lohan, whose once promising movie career has been derailed by multiple trips to jail and rehab since 2007, did not address the allegations in detail. But she responded on Twitter saying: “I am not to be made an example of anymore. I am working hard and fulfilling my obligations every single day, to the court as well as myself. If I travel, it’s for work and it’s been approved.”…I’d appreciate it if people will just let me do what is asked of me, so that I can get my life back. Please ignore the reports which have no truth to them,” she added.
