FireFox is cool

I am using FireFox more and more. I have seen it crash but that’s expected from something that new.

The thing I really like is that is allows me to check my email through a web enabled Outlook access much better.

Using the web interface for Outlook through IE is just plain painful and almost useable.

Switching to FireFox makes it more than usable and it is very close to having the feel of a real mail client.

Try it!

Keith Brown .Net Security Book

I am currently ready it (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0321228359/ccomput-20/103-4748007-2595816?creative=327641&camp=14573&link_code=as1)

Now, if you want to get scared about the safety of your data/machine then read it too. I always wanted to get into security since it is an obscure science (at least for me). This book is giving a taste of what's going on inside Windows. Some of it makes sense. Some of it is really mind boggling. If I am learning one lesson from this is that I am running all my stuff as Admin which is really, really a bad idea.

I made myself a "MeWithNoPrivileges" account under my machine that I now try to use as much as possible especially when surfing the web.
