SpywareInfo

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Have I mentioned lately what a great resource SpywareInfo is? And how great their newsletter is? Heck just in this week’s newsletter you will find full articles about Direcway using remote access to their customers machines to run ads, a full review of Mailwasher Pro, including a discount, a plea to turn off bouncing of virus emails, since they use spoofed from addresses, the Google toolbar automatic updates and word that they may be coming out with an option that you can turn off. (Let’s hope so, since I found out about the automatic updates after I had already suggested everyone at work install it, and I really don’t like having automatic updates done on my network!)

All of that in one issue of a free newsletter!

But no other sounds will play because the sound device…

They’re set to notify the end user that new updates are avaialble. That setting was a guess at what would work best, if…

I got an email earlier this week about an interesting new service put together by the people who gave us Numly, the service that lets you copyright your blog posts or other on-line content. (And yes, I’ve gotten away from doing that, mostly out of sheer laziness.) It’s a service they’re calling Docly: Docly, the…

Home today

I’m home from work today. I am not feeling very well, although sleeping in until 11 AM seems to have helped some. Maybe I just need a day to shut down and rest? Who knows! Anyway, I’m behind in updating and blog-reading, so more to come later, maybe! Follow these topics: Uncategorized
