How should I know if it works? That's what beta testers are for. I only coded it.

Site Damage

Folks,

If you have an account on this site, you may want to change your password. The backend got trashed a couple of days ago and at this time I can't identify how it was done... better be safe than sorry, right.

I think I have cleaned up most of the mess, at least I did have a recent backup that was still in good condition. I think in the coming months I'll have to have a good look at what I can do to make the site more robust.

At least there is a slight silver lining on this rain cloud. Working in IT security you get to meet some nice gents from a certain US agency, that takes interest in how these things happen. Specially when some fragments seem to be from individuals from a certain East European country.. Hint.. Hint.

Cheers,

Tom

Software Awards on Download Sites

Hi Folks,

If you have had to look around on some software sites for some little tool you needed, this article may be of interest to you.

It would appear that not every 5 star submission is worth it. I'll let you make up your own mind. :)

Vista, Intel 915 and Aero

Well, looks like I've joined the crowd of pissed off PC users that are stuck with the Intel 915GM chipset. With a fairly new high end laptop, less than 12 months old, bought with the promise (at the time of purchase) of being “vista ready”, I now can’t use all I have installed. I don’t get Aero, Movie Maker & DVD Maker. So much for being ready! Even if I can’t get Aero to work, no one ever told me that apps like Movie Maker, which worked fine on the laptop with XP, now will no longer work.

No Sony for me this Christmas...

Is it just me, of are people offended by the dirty underhanded way that Sony decided to add a rootkit to (some of) their CD's, which gets installed silently when you play the CD? This Story at Groklaw raises some interesting comments.

I accept they want to protect their rights, but who said they can trample on their customers rights to do so.

I hope enough people will contact Sony and tell them about all the sales they are missing out on, thanks to their ignorant behavior.

No Sony for me this Christmas....

Changes

Well, it has been quite some time since I have posted here. There probably won't be too many Nuke related posts here, as much of my original work is now being continued by other people.

There ave been many changes in my life. I am now back in Australia, after having worked in Aisa for almost 2 years. Found a job I like and settled in ok there too.

Even managed to get engaged, so my single days are finally over.. lol

But I am looking forward to a good future, lets see how it all works out.

Cheers,
Tom
