Random Musings - Day #73
Confidence Trickster
There has been a spate of mobile insurance frauds. About 10 companies have been involved cold-calling punters selling mobile insurance. The trick is that the fraudsters have bought new mobile phones and dial up numbers similar to their own. Chances the number are new. So they claim they are the mobile operator or from the shop they bought the phone, offering cheap insurance.
Always be careful when you get cold calls and cold emails. Don't give out details. In fact, ask to phone back!
Dating Review
Stumbled upon this dating agency review.
Shell Tidbit
Here's a nice little tutorial that I found for generating numbers from a for-loop in a unix shell.
Windows Tidbits
1. The old IIS unicode exploit!
2. How to restrict access to the registry from a remote computer.
3. How to prevent Windows from storing a LAN manager hash of your password in Active Directory and local SAM databases.

Random Musings - Day #61
Excel
Microsoft finally fix Excel after some Trojan Horse have been attacking a particular vulnerability.
Facebook Issues
All kind of reports about Facebook have been coming out. You can gain a lot of details from facebook groups and friends. Because of trust that inherit. A psychologist says, "get off facebook and get a life" and also a girl got fired for calling her job boring.
EULA
What happens if a cat clicks on an agreement.
Vimto
Looks like the Police are getting desperate in that they are now stealing vimto.
Private calls
You can spoof and make your calls truly private according to spoofcard. Conversely, you could unmask blocked calls
Listening
Hmm Listening is everything, particularly when it is active.
