Our ISP at work has been having issues all day long. I managed to get a dialup connection going using my laptop, but haven’t had much time to get caught up on news. I did pick up this little tidbit about security in MSN Messenger from today’sLockergnome. You might want to read it.

Looks like AOL is back to blocking Trillian again today. I give up, I’m not going to download new versions of Trillian every other day just so I can talk to my wife online. (She’s the only AIM user I talk to.) I’ll just yell up the stairs at her..*L*

    Instead of prepping for those meetings this afternoon, I’ve spent most of it dealing with telephone technicians.

    Not that I don’t still like Amphetadesk, but I felt the need to try something new. So I downloaded NewsDesk this morning and it works pretty well. I really like it! Yeah I have a slow day and I go home and look for new freeware to play with, isn’t that always the way? BTW,…
