Off to a rocking start

This week is shaping up to be as good as last week. Our Positni filters redirected hundreds of copies of the Sober virus into our quarantine over the weekend. I’m glad they all got detected and redirected but all of those emails in the quarantine means it takes me longer to go through and make sure nothing got quarantined that shouldn’t have. Seriously, what do we have to do to keep people from opening attachments and getting infected?

Also, email to this domain is not working today for whatever reason. The email servers my host uses are unreachable as are the database connections I use on the Child Abuse site. I do not know why or what happened…

Update: Email and the DB connections are working now. Still no word on what happened this morning.

    Here’s a thought, maybe voter turnout isn’t low because of voter apathy. Maybe, just maybe, all those non-voters out there are simply waiting for a candidate to run who is actually worthy of our important vote. I can’t remember the last time a candidate was actually worth voting for, let alone taking the time and…

    Had a bit more of an email exchange today with Andrew from the Newzcrawler Team about the permalinks. He figured out where the problem was, promised to get it fixed in the next version and gave me some ideas for a workaround. Very helpful! Turns out that the problem lies in the way their embedded…

    Scoble gets going again with a bit of a rant against MS for making HTML the default email format in Outlook. Then he tops it off in the next post with this doozy quote: Most people would be quite happy with Plain Text (and those of you who send emails with purple backgrounds shouldn’t be…

    Steven, I agree that girls and boys both are doing things their parents would be shocked at, which is why I pointed to the article as an example to make sure you learn as much as your kids do. I don’t really care if it’s boys or girls, kids need their parents to have some…
