What are you drinking, Shane???


Champers - just not much!

Try to inject a "cup o' coffee".


Had the coffee first, to wash the Co-codamol down. But forgot the
Co-codamol. God they're bitter! More-or-less washed them down with champers.
Which reminds me, exercises!

Ther still are a few hours left, remember?


Not here, mate! You posted 15 mins before midnight here.

And then a happy new year to you too.


Happy New Year, Harry!

Thanks Mike,
Not being one to "click merrily away", I guess I am safe
enough....for now....having unregistered the .dll, blocked the 'bad'
sites, using updated MVP Hosts file and adding the recommended sites
to
the Restricted Zone.
Heirloom, old and OT, but, will sleep
better tonight

BTW, did you see the shmgvw.dll 'fix' in the latest post???

Yes

Opinions?

OK I guess for those who click merrily away when browsing or viewing
their e-mail. For myself I'm not that worried about this particular
vulnerability although I appreciate that those who go for the full
eye
candy click everything approach to computing then the fix could well

be
worth investigating. For example I very rarely use thumbnail view.

My two main boxes being AMD64s both have hardware DEP enabled which
significantly mitigates the potential problem (software DEP being
less
useful as a safeguard). As for MSPaint, remember also that IrfanView
and Xnview are infection vectors even when shimgvw.dll is

unregistered.

Maybe a few hours left for you but right now it's one hour and 54
minutes past midnight in Spain and we're already in the new year,
waiting for you Americans to catch up.

Heh.

No wonder, it shows 7:49 PM, but that's our time and I have no idea how to
find your's.
By now you're already in the new year:
* Prosit New Year * Shane.

Harry

There've got to be better days ahead!

Harry,

Look at the headers of Shane's post (Date: Sun, 1 Jan 2006 00:49:33 -0000)
and yours (Date: Sat, 31 Dec 2005 20:02:55 -0500).

You will see that Shane was posting at 00:49 his time and that he is in
the GMT time zone. Your post shows that you posted at 20:02 your time and
that you are in a time zone five hours behind GMT, probably EST.

I would take a wild guess and say Philadelphia or nearby.

I don't have that information here, Mike, only the time I mentioned. I was
too busy running the scanner for malware and might have found something.
Time to go to bed now (near Philadelphia) in 2006.

I don't have that information here, Mike

Harry,

That is something I don't understand. The information I refer to is in
the header of each and every post made to this or any other newsgroup
since the NNTP header will always contain a date field.

Yeah, Mike, neither do I.
My header shows the time I mentioned, 7:49 PM I believe.
As long as everything else is working and no malware for me either, as I
found out.
Not a bad start.

Harry.
