Automated virus / spyware removal script: June 2010 (BROKEN)

The link to the TrendMicro scanner is NG. It would be helpful to have the actual filename in the readme file so it could be tracked down each time TM changes it's structure. If I figure it out I'll post it. But I am still searching and will give this script a run for it's money on a nasty...

secrets from your job

If you are a field worker in the Arctic, you don't need to run faster than a polar bear, only faster than your assistant. And if you cannot run faster than your assistant, it is less paperwork to shoot them and let the bear eat them than it is to shoot the bear. Alternatively you can just...

I'll put in my plug for HostPC. I have several sites there, nothing hi end, and almost all of the problems I have had over the past three years were of my own doing. Flaky servers have been dealt with promptly as have most other issues. It was a pita when the hurricane hit last fall as I was...

Dell Inspiron CoreDuoT2300 1Gb ram 14.1" screen

I am thinking of getting this machine for the GF. Does anyone have any thoughts on the TrueLife display (worth it? any issues?)? The machine would be used mostly for basic apps, no gaming and probably not watching movies.

If you had a graphics card break - how long did it take?

Coincidentally, two weeks prior to my AIW biting the bullet with the AC vga cooler, my old faithful BH6 with a Matrox Marvel G200 TV fried due to the Antec SL400 power supply sending up a large cloud of smoke after a firecracker popping noise. That card had run happily for probably 4 years or...

Massapequa is also getting fiber. According to a friend who pulls cable for Verizon both Syossett and Massapequa were considered "bad" co's with lots of problematic copper so they are upgrading these two co's first in this area.
