Frankie redux

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I did start getting hits from a different referrer today, a link list at frankieboots. So now that the hits have started coming through an actual link on his link list page, instead of the main page, I have to wonder what made me so special? It’s all very mysterious. But you gotta love anyone who would play the Misfits as their background music, don’t you? Update: It appears that now that I’ve got this mystery linkage figured out, another site is showing up in my referreers that looks suspiciously similar to frankie, and also has no link to me. What is this, referrer spam?

Admins left to fix Microsoft’s browser mess -I guess the recent patch to IE is creating another problem when it comes to accessing sites with some VBScript stuff. Figures, seems like quite a few patches to software wind up creating more problems than they fix doesn’t it?

    Thanks to Microsoft Watch we now have a pointer to a KB article listing apps that they know will have problems with SP2. Gee Symantec Corporate edition 8 is on there. That’s one of ours, although the work-around seems simple enough. Guess I’ll find out for sure soon enough. Follow these topics: Uncategorized

    I noted last week that it seemed odd that the new definitions I was prompted to download were dated 4 days ago. I’ve been prompted to download 2 updates since then, so obviously, they are updating the def files often. However last night’s definitions were dated Feb. 15, 6 days from the date they were…

    Just a few things I’ve noticed while catching up with my blogrolls: Brad is trying to get enough money to buy a Mac, and he’s auctioning off some stuff to do it. I liked what Scoble and Doc had to say about the MacWorld news, not because I’m anti-Mac, but because they did a far…
