Virus via a Family Member Postcard

I have noticed many may have fallen prey to this when I saw my keyword search report therefore I’ve taken the initiative to add this piece of information below to help you. I hope that helps. - July 1, 2007

Q: Oh no! I clicked on one of the links in the Aunt Edna email! What should I do?
A: First thing: delete the email. Then use a newly-updated virus scanner to check your machine for any infection. Next, download the free version of Ad-Aware, and check your computer for spyware and adware. And finally, if you really want to be safe, you should stop using Internet Explorer (which is very, very unsafe to browse with nowadays) and download Firefox, which is a safer, faster, more modern and totally free browser from the fine folks at Mozilla.

If you’ve recently received a postcard allegedly from the provider 1001postcards.com, make sure you double check the suspiciousness of it being sent by a family member. I recently received one and curiosity led me to the finding of the Aunt Edna virus.

Become a Logo Designer 2.0

Any logo designer or designer or anyone for that matter should view this mad Yay Hooray thread on; redesign famous logos in web 2.0 format! What these people do is basically take an existing company logo like McDonalds, BBC, CNN, Adidas, Nike and even Coca Cola and redesign it into a fitting web 2.0 logo.

The ideas these guys can churn out just blew my mind away. And the crazy fact is that some of these logos are even better than some existing logos. Laugh out loud! It’s a great way to loosen up your creative mind and just go with the flow. Then wait for that creative spark to light up.

Added WordPress Related Posts Plugin

I know I’ve wanted to implement this plugin for awhile and I’ve finally done it after Yaro Starak from Entrepreneurs Journey recommended me the plugin by Wasabi. There are many plugins created that could do the same but if an established blogger like Yaro has implemented it than I’m assuming it’s safe and good enough for its purpose.

True enough the plugin is great and very easy to customize. It can be personalized from the number of items down to the beginning and closing tags of your list. If you haven’t got this installed yet, you’d better because this is a tool that helps increase pageviews too.

The Real Website Process

I was doing some research and I stumbled across an unfamiliar website; Get a New Browser (GANB). It’s got some pretty interesting entries to share and one of them I’d like to share with you here. It dictates the normal general process of a website project from the first meeting all the way to the finished product.

Have a laugh or put a smile to lighten up your day with GANBs Futile Communication.

Why do you think firms always have this kinda hiccup?

Fake Paypal Email Scene

According to investigations done, I’ve found that the email was sent from a company in the USA. It’s too quick to jump to conclusions since black hat hackers could easily hijack an email server to use for spamming. But some investigation of the email has given away clear signs of it’s non-existent authenticity.

This email was one of those sent out as a disguise for a Paypal member to verify their account and when they’ve arrived at the spoof website, they’ll be asked to enter their personal details. Then after that it’ll be doomsday if you aren’t careful.
