back in business I am . I will be bringing back my personal website back up again , thanks to the guys at f2o.org :) This means more adventures with the magic of PHP and MySQL

use IE for a second and something bad is sure to happen. Some how because of a microsoft vm exploit a trojan was installed on my machine which actually caused a lot of havoc. My website was taken down, my brothers email pw changed , my emails deleted etc. Well thankfully it wasnt something major and removal was a piece of cake with only one file being infected. It was the v.byte virus. I have now updated my sun vm and made it the default vm for IE as well.

with all this happening I sure do hope this doesnt happen http://slashdot.org/articles/04/02/12/2114228.shtml?tid=109&tid=187 . Coz then the crap will really hit the ceiling

The patch that fixes the major IE url spoofing bug is out . go here for more info and to download http://www.microsoft.com/security/security_bulletins/20040202_windows.asp

after installation you can head off to this link to test if all installed well http://www.secunia.com/internet_explorer_address_bar_spoofing_test/ .

if it does go well, when you perform the test IE should have the follwing error in its header "invalid syntax error"
