Thanks Banjo -- I'd make the change but I can't edit after 60 minutes. :)

Alright traders, this week's edition is going to focus on optimizing your current setup and maintaining a clean setup. Before we get started, I want to forewarn you that this applies only to Microsoft operating systems with specific emphasis on Windows XP Pro and Home editions. Also, any...

Sounds suspiciously like a bad power supply. You could get another one and replace that power supply and see if it works. If not, you know it isn't the power supply. :)

At the request of several people, I am starting a thread in the software section to address security concerns with online trading and internet usage in general. Please feel free to ask questions or request clarification on any points I make. I will start a weekly column in the hopes that...

Look at this ... http://www.tgdaily.com/2005/11/28/scottrade-hackersgainaccess/index.html Hackers gain access to millions of Scottrade's accounts Scotttrade, a brokerage firm known for their $7 commission for online orders, has been hacked. Company officials say that someone illegally...

The short answer -- no. I'll assume we're speaking strictly of Microsoft PC's here. There are several types of files that are executable or contain executable code -- an .exe file is only one of them. A *.dll file could also be executed and run malicious code. There are many file extensions...

For those of you who have a lot of passwords to various sites, you can get a thumb reader that you just press your thumb against and it will automatically log you into a site. This is more for convenience than security since it still has to transmit that information across the net. However...

There is another option that you may want to consider. If you do a lot of online banking, trading and other financial activities, I would highly recommend getting a second cheap laptop or desktop. Use this computer ONLY for those activities. Lock it down hard (If anyone is interested in how...

A firewall is a good basic form of perimeter defense that will keep unsolicited connections from the outside from reaching the inside (trusted side -- your side). The problem is that once a program gets on YOUR system (the trusted side) it can open a connection to the untrusted side. A basic...

I'd like to chime in on this discussion. I work full-time as an IS Director for a beer distributor and have to deal with security issues on a daily basis. A lot of "phishing" crimes originate from the eastern European area. There are a lot of computer savvy individuals with little money...

Starting threads like this is a perfect example of how to get banned. Do not start threads attacking other users. Don't do this again coins.

Thanks :cool: I went to Chilli's near here and one of the locals told me to go to the Horseshoe Casino ... Things are definately looking up. :cool:

I'm in Shreveport, LA right now -- what a shithole. I am here for training, but there is absolutely nothing here. The hotel bar has nobody in there -- the nearest place is about a mile down the road and it is a blockbuster rental store (whoppie!). No chicks -- no clubs -- no cool bars...

Every time you search a term, google tells you how many pages contain your search term. So I wondered which terms would be most popular ... religion = 32.7 M science = 123 M God = 60.8 M sex = 210 M money = 125 M life = 185 M "music" beat them all with 270 M

Localized destruction. For instance, if it were to hit your local starbucks, you would not be getting Latte's the next morning.

Fun little poll for everyone ...

Has anyone seen Nitro lately?

Thanks. I had it in the browser's cache. That's the last time I keep open two IE's at once with different ET's in them!

Turok Said: It's simple...you seemed like a better option when alcohol was involved. Once the blood thickened you weren't quite as attractive and required her to play the "boyfriend" card as an exit. JB

Gringinho said: A girl who doesn't want to go any further can be quite cruel sometimes, no ? A boyfriend-phrase is such an easy, but yet effective and poisonous, way of saying "thanks, but no thanks" to any further dates. A little more evil girl would be dating guys to find someone...
