It may just be me but I've noticed a HUGE increase of these hacked
e-mail postings this weekend. Not just on this reflector but many others too and private e-mail as well. Two of my friends got hacked already today.

Easy fix.
It just takes discipline. Don't click on anything in an email, even if it says it's a picture of puppy's and butterflies from your daughter/grand-daughter. IT Security types have been saying this for years, but some people think it doesn't apply to them or their anti-virus/anti-malware/anti-phishing software will keep them safe... to click with impunity. All of these programs run on virus/malware definitions you receive from the provider. They are ALWAYS at least 12 hours behind on new virii/exploits, and that's the companies who're paying attention. > Gary K9GS <mailto:[hidden email]> > Sunday, September 23, 2012 2:39 PM > It may just be me but I've noticed a HUGE increase of these hacked > e-mail postings this weekend.

Another vulnerability in Internet Explorer has been discovered and patched
just this past week/weekend. For those using any version of Windows or Internet Explorer please ensure that your updates are up to date along with whatever antivirus application(s) you may be using.

Yet another reason to use a browser that is NOT Internet Explorer. Firefox is one alternative. It's not perfect by any means, but it's not IE either, and the user-based support is amazing. I have IE on my system, for those times when I am forced to use it, but fortunately that's only 2 or 3 times a year. But perhaps I am just being a curmudgeon. - Jim, KL7CC On 9/23/2012 12:04 PM, Gary wrote: > Another vulnerability in Internet Explorer has been discovered and patched > just this past week/weekend. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html |

Actually, either Google Chrome or Opera is superior to Firefox as a browser. Firefox has not kept up with changing times and performance.
On my Mac, the fastest browser is Apple Safari but Chrome comes in as a reasonably close second and then Opera. And, all of these blow the doors off of Firefox. And, obviously there is no IE on my Mac so that is a non-issue. But, at work, corporate policy (which I violate every day) is to use IE and it is incredibly slow despite the fact that I have a very fast PC. Both Chrome and Opera are available on a Windows PC too and they are much better then IE or Firefox. My favorite for my at work computer is Opera. Since we do a lot of HTML5 based web application development, IE is not even in the running as a test platform and we rely on Opera and Chrome. Just go to the site: html5test.com and measure your favorite browser's HTML5 support. Oh, Safari is available on Windows but that is not a good choice. Safari screams on a Mac but it is stuck in the slush on a Windows box. Safari is a web-kit based browser and so is Chrome and I think possibly Opera and just about every other browser on the planet. Firefox is of course based on Mozilla Gecko and IE is based on IE junk.
