Van ‘exploded’ in the driveway. I thought it was compressed air, chainsaw, or powertool next door. After review of all fluids, it’s the AC.

RT @k_begz I keep having the same dream <- is the dream that your room is clean, you discovered you have wood floors, and I stopped nagging? RT @k_begz Um im surrounded by dweebs. Help! <-you say that like it’s a bad thing… people I know?? I waited until the official firmware release, but I’m impatient, and I have concerns about Verizon bastardizing some features (USB tethering, etc). The install was smooth, but I had to remove the battery after the restart when the system appeared to hang during initialization (eye of Sauron animation), then all was well.
I will post a comprehensive review after using the update for a full work week. Firmware and instructions – http://www.nexeo.net/?p=488 Motorola Droid support site – http://www.motorola.com/Support/US-EN/Consumer-Support/Mobile-Phones/Droid+-+USA_Default+US_Loc%253AUS-EN One Click control to UAC through UAC controller tool via One Click control to UAC through UAC controller tool Technoweblog. Interesting add-on to manage UAC (User Access Control) for Vista and Windows 7. Last Friday, my Droid GPS started acting up. While trying to estimate my travel time from a bus on the NJ Turnpike, the Google Maps screen went blue. After trying to reset my Location several times, I turned on different Layers, then zoomed out. The screen was blue because the GPS thought I was in the Atlantic Ocean a few miles East of Ocean City, MD. I looked around, and confirmed I was on the NJ Turnpike. Today, I went to the local Verizon tech, and she was able to resolve the problem by doing a *228 update, and removing the battery. Things to note:
In the future, I plan to update the software (*228) monthly, and at least cycle the power on the phone to minimize problems and optimize operation of the phone.

Neat web site that allows you to follow the HTC and other team members using a combination of Google and SRM GPS technologies.
You Had Me At EHLO… : iOS 4 and Exchange ActiveSync I haven’t seen this yet, but be aware. iPhone 4 issues with Exchange ActiveSync.
If you see any of these symptoms, I highly recommend upgrading your iPhone to an Android device. If this is not possible, check out the Microsoft Exchange Team Blog link above. Test Post Testing new blog tool – Zoundry Raven. Open source tool that supports WordPress and almost a dozen other web servers.
Stop Paying for Windows Security; Microsoft’s Security Tools Are Good Enough I have been using Microsoft Security Essentials since it was in beta. It does a good job, with very low overhead, and high rate of accuracy, including malware and Trojans. If you use Security Essentials, keep your workstation patched, and use multiple browsers with ad blocking software, you can feel pretty secure running Windows. Microsoft Security Essentials Recommended Firefox Add-Ons – AdBlock Plus Recommended Chrome Extensions – AdBlock v2.0
Well, it was a good run. I was one of the first people to use Blogger, starting in late 1999, and although I experimented with other blogging software, Blogger was my primary publishing tool until May, 2010. The Google folks made a business decision to eliminate FTP publishing. I had the option of migrating to blogger.com, or another service, but I already have my own server, so I’m converting to WordPress. I’m running WordPress 3.x beta, and I’m still working at importing my Blogger content. Until then, it will still be available through Google searches, and at http://paulbegley.com/blogger.html.

Wow. This caught me by surprise this morning. The message below (forwarded to Google Mail) looks legit, but if you hover over the link, you see it points to a binary (password.exe) hosted on gameroomhaven.com. Most of the message is legit. The links at the bottom of the post are legit, pointing back to twitter.com. However, the e-mail address in the SPAM is one I only use for a high school alumni site. Based on that, I started to look at the message more carefully and noted the malware link posing as the password reset URL. Lesson here, don’t click on links in your e-mail without verifying the source. Using the Google Mail ‘Show original’ feature (drop down in upper right corner of each message) showed the source code for the message where the malicious URL is obvious. A snippet from the original below: Hey there. Can't remember your password, huh? It happens to the best of us. Please open this link in your browser: http://www.gameroomhaven.com/password.exe This will reset your password. You can then login and change it to something you'll remember.
