Busy morning

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Just a little busy, have already fielded a number of questions about the SoBig worm and a number of emails that are still hitting our accounts, repaired a Windows NT installation in order to get a laptop booted again, and ran all of our billing for this month, all by 9:10AM. 😉

Angela seems to have gotten hit pretty hard by this SoBig worm. Her personal account has gotten, what is it close to 100 by now, honey? I’ve checked the headers and they all originate from the same IP address! It’s a columbus.rr.com address, if the person doesn’t get this under control soon we may have no choice but to drop a line to abuse@rr.com and ask them to contact the person in question.

    I was reading an interesting article from InfoWorld this afternoon about the coming Office 12 version.

    I didn’t get to post about it yesterday, but I did take step two into creating a $0 budget intranet, getting Uniform Server up and running on the old Windows Me machine. It’s a pretty straight-forward process, the only problem I ran into is a known bug in version 3.2 when running on older Windows…

    Lots of database stuff to do today. Since we do billing 45 days out from the due date, this upcoming billing cycle actually represents the first 2003 cycle. What that means for me is that in order to to do some queries against the upcoming accounts and what they’ve been paying over the last 3…

    I’m not sure, but I think it’s probably not a good sign when I get an email from my wife half-way through a fantasy football draft that asks “who have you condemned to injury or jail this year?”. Granted, given the recent history of watching a football player’s career take a sudden turn for the…
