RustyMore Gud Nooz! Adobe's Flash Player has been found to enable hacking. Time for some work: Go to
this site, which will load the Flash Player control panel from you very own peecee into the window. At the very least, check the yellow "Ask..." button for all sites.

RustyDanger, Will Robinson!
Hopefully, no Barthmobilers will fall prey to
this, but note its content.
Yeah, I know I'm being redundant redundant, but the idea is to keep Barthers clean and clear...

Rustyfinallyfast.com, hyped relentlessly on cable/satellite TV, is essentially a
a scam; avoid it.

Jim and TereHey Rusty,
Any news on SP4 & when or whether to install yet? I waited for a year before I installed SP3 & haven't had any problems at all.
Thanks for your input,
Tere
Wish we could go to FL with you guys. Have fun!

RustyNo mention of SP4 on any of the geeksites. I suspect that there will be no more service packs, although security upgrades will continue.
Expect a big push and hype from MS when Windows 7 is released; with the disaster of Vista, MS is going to want to sell and sell and sell W7.

RustyA few months ago,
here, I recommended ThreatFire.
However, v3.5 was made available (automatic update) around 11/25/08. I've encountered two issues with it that cause me to recommend
UNINSTALLING it ASAP.
One issue is that it interferes with keyboard drivers, causing the keyboard to become inoperable. Less irritating, but still a pain, is that it also interferes with the Windows "Hibernate" function.

Of course all Barthers know not to open an email attachment from within the email, unless it's from someone they a., know, and b. who pays attention to PC security.
Here's why.

RustyA Firefox problem - not widespread, but potentially
serious. "Drive-bys" in the article are mostly on unsecured wi-fi networks, but once again this is a reason to be careful with voluntary downloads and to keep your arsenal of anti-malware and anti-virus and firewalls in place and up-to-date.

Well how about that!
I use both FireFox and IE. IE on this site, because FireFox will not remember what is 'new since last visit' Rusty, or anyone have any suggeswtions? I'm also trying to switch over to 'unbuntu' or some other linus/unix OS. I used to be a Unix Admin in a past life.
