With the recent spotlight on malware and computer security I want to share some of the tricks I have discovered whilst reading up on it. And yes, some of these can affect multiple platforms (Windows/OSX/etc).
Google Image Poisoning: The act of using Google Image Search to trick users into visiting infected pages. Images related to popular topics on Twitter or the news are pushed high up the ranks of searches relating to that topic. Victims search for said topic in their droves, click the imag

After acquiring a new HTC Wildfire S and trying to sign up (still unsuccesfully) to the My Orange site, I was greeted with this Captcha:
Not even Google knows what a tooder is, why they are massive or why there are more then one so I guess you will need to use your own imagination.
I run Sharepoint 2010 on a hyper-v server which I backup each term.
Now these backup images are starting to get pretty huge at about 50gb so I thought I would look into reducing the footprint on the sharepoint server.

After a bit of googling I came up with these solutions
- Turn off IIS logging
IIS Manager >> sites >> sharepoint >> logging >> do not create log files
Space saving 12gb

Has anyone looked at any tools to save passwords for most of the applications that users use. In particular Fronter and e-Portal. I have been asked to look at a tool that allows seamless access to applications without having to remember multipe userid and passwords.

Had one of those days today that we all dread as technicians/network managers. Walk into the office this morning and pounced upon by various members of staff shouting "No one can log on!"
Into the Server room and all the servers apart from one is switched on and running. The main DC which also houses the CSE Database is dead as a dodo.
Initial indication would be a power failure, but no, all others UPS' are running and not reporting an issue. Power up the UPS and powered back up the s
Long term users of Excel VBA will be familiar with slow processing of page set up if code like the following is used:
With ActiveWorksheet.PageSetup
.CenterHeader = "Title of the Worksheet"
.LeftFooter = "Today's Date"
.RightFooter = "Page &P of &N"
.PrintArea = "$A$1:$H$28"
End With
The problem with the code is that, despite the use of the With statement, each line requires a call to the printer driver, rather than the whole statement being sent once. The most commo

If this message from the Local Authority is to be believed it seems the good people at Capita have even more influence than previously believed and are now handing out honours!

One of the things that I wished Chrome did as standard was the auto reloading of tabs. This is handy for a number of scenarios but I wish to keep myself logged into our Local Authority portal so I get the correct Internet filtering level all the time without having to keep logging in again when the timeout period expires.
There are extensions out there that will do this for you (eg Auto-Reload) but I was alarmed at how all these extensions have access to your website and n
On Tuesday at 1:20pm a huge fire broke out in the attic of our school. It took 4+ hours to get under control and out due to how our old Victorian building roof was constructed. We have a hall with 3 classrooms coming off each side. The fire wiped out 3 classrooms underneath the attic where the fire started, and destroyed the roof in the hall ending up with most of it collapsing. The rest of the juniors is completely water logged.
I'm still have flashbacks of the day. Half an hour before i had

The referendum on voting
Apologies in advance to anyone who was expecting my first blog to be on something technical:D
Being of an age where voting is something I do partly in respect of the history of those who lost life and limb to protect our rights I'm currently in a quandary over this seemingly pointless referendum on the Voting system. I say pointless because we are given only two options The AV System or First Past the Post.
More thought into the choices needed to be put into th
As much as I hate Dell's hardware, PSU's in particular, I can't fault their peripherals. My monitor is still soldiering on after nearly 5-6 years of service and the keyboard has taken such a battering that the WASD keys are faded to the point of blankness. That's what gaming does to keyboards, punishes them. WASD in particular.
So what awaits me when I pop the keys off one by one to see what half a decade of non-cleaning will reveal?
What is this, do I have a hamster living under my ke
There I was, thought I'd have a go at implementing a VLAN on the Core switch yesterday. Just to prove the concept and make sure I've got it clear in my head what to do. I telnet into the Switch and start tweaking some settings, next thing I know connectivity to the Internet Stops.. What have I done? I look at the steps I took, and all seems well. I then revert all the settings back to their initial settings and still no Internet.

With the current thread going on in the forums, I thought that now would be a good time to start a blog.
You see, depression gets a pretty bad rap, from most quarters, mainly due to lack of understanding. My blog is not going to be an attempt to make people understand, but just to give an insight into the whys and wherefors.....But in my case only!
So, where does it start?
For me, this year, two keys incidents have come together to create, what my Doctor calls, "Reactive Depression". Th
I've been playing around with the WinForms WebBrowser control this morning, and after lots of experimentation have finally figured out how to use some of the printing functionality.
First of all, Add a Reference to SHDocVw. (Project > Add Reference > Browse > C:\Windows\System32\shdocvw.dll)
Secondly load a document into the browser using webBrowser1.Navigate(url).
Then,

Just an update on my post "Making Installshield deployments silent"
After making a package using the above method I found that the machine was rebooting after installation even after attempting to suppress reboot.
Natually I thought that there must be something in setup.iss that was causing this and I was correct. If you need to stop a reboot in this situation, open up setup.iss, scroll to the bottom and change "BootOption=3" to "BootOption=0" and voila, no more reboot.
A program called Breaking In is being launched in America and it is the IT world's equivalent of CSI. the show follows a fictional IT team breaking into museums, nicking cars and doing other things that real security researchers likely don't do as part of their day to day affairs. The producers even created a Flash game for people to play around in and supposedly "hack" by guessing a password.
Unfortunately for the show's marketing team, one user responded to the Naked Security blog post abou
