I’m the spam killa’
I’m happy to announce that I’m one of two “spam killers” on the Software Engineering radio website. Spam was starting to run rampant on their site, so they asked for help and I responded. It is so simple to donate your time to a worthy cause. You to can do it, it takes just a…

You can find some very interesting tidbits of information, like Sunbelt using Symantec AV on some of their machines. A couple of current examples: a CA researcher uses Office 2007…

Web Hosting Site Review Review :-p
WebHostingChoice pretends to be a hosting review site (it contains categories like “best uk web hosting”), however it only seems to be a placeholder for a couple of affiliate links to a limited number of hosts.
