Thrilling blog post title, isn’t it?
Here’s what I’m talking about on my other blogs today:
On The Business Protector, I’ve started a series on hacked WordPress blogs. I keep hearing more and more horror stories about this and hope to raise some awareness.
On Business Action Steps, you’ll find a post about how keeping my [...]
I’ve drawn a line in the electrons. Surprisingly, it looks more like a hyperlink than a line.
And be sure to check out the only current entry in my blogroll (under “Internet Business”).
What’s this all about?
1. First, read this post.
2. Second, the Robert Phillips I met and know is not the Robert Phillips described in that [...]

The mini blog-a-thon was quite fun and I’m glad that I did it. Even though the official blog-a-thon is over, please go down a few posts, click on the graphic, and consider making a donation to Dr. Mani’s worthy cause.

Spyware is simply programs that are installed on your computer without your knowledge or consent. These rogue applications can do anything from display unwanted ads on your computer to downloading additional “junk” to actually recording everything done on your computer for later collection and analysis.

This post on Sunbelt Software’s blog talks about the test that I’ve been referring to in the past few blog posts. While their blog is a great resource, it *can* get a bit more technical than the average user needs at times, but since I relied [...]
