I love simple fixes,

Yep! It'll be interesting. I have entirely conflicted feelings about that.

I agree. But I also agree they should never have gotten rid of the start menu on non touch devices in the first place. If they wanted to replace it with something like the 'dock' on Mac.. fine (I actually kinda like the look, but have no idea on the function).

I know in IE, you can set Per Site Privacy Actions under Internet Options/Privacy, but haven't played with that.

I just say "Sorry I don't do surveys" and that normally shuts them up.

Hard to know if it shuts them up or not when you immediately hang up 🙂

In Linux it is...

cat /dev/null > filename

Cool. So it was just a device issue.

They dont have to have a virus per say.

Sure they do, it's called a meat virus.

Here is a link to a Symantec post on the subject: http://www.symantec.com/connect/blogs/cryptodefense-cryptolocker-imitator-makes-over-34000-one-month

@BC I tried the Disk Management, Selected the 2TB WD HDD, it was not initialised. Tried to initialise the disk and got access denied error. I hope you read my initial posts, that I tried the same thing using Disk Utility on a MAC and dd command to clean the hard drive.

@nara Tried the diskpart as well but without success. I am actually checking Spinrite if that helps. Will let you know the results soon.

This is on sale if you want NTFS for Mac: https://deals.macupdate.com/deal/15648?utm_source=macupdate&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=paragon

That actually looks interesting. Thanks, @nic!

Looks like a good blog. Bookmarked!

I, on the other hand, will be ready for my update right at that time!

DOA. Sucks, but it happens.

Have you looked at Spiceworks yet?

Also, if you have switches that support CDP, your ESXi hosts will tell you what they're plugged into.

He posted there first. This is for taking from client site to client site, not for a permanent setup which Spiceworks handles very poorly and is not designed around.

Fair enough. Spiceworks isn't very portable.

Not as rare as you would hope. We've seen a bit of this.

i believe he was referring to users doing the right thing as being rare...

I think they are remnants from the SP3 upgrade, but I'm not positive.

VB is just an awful language.

We had a huge production system written in VBScript server side and VB6 client side for nearly a decade. That was just painful.

I can agree...the plethora of VBA (which I know, isn't VB but is still VB ) projects we have drives me insane...

I refuse to talk about SEO with my board of directors now. I will only talk to them about good content. They're responsible for providing the content and that's where I want them to focus. I had a previous CEO badger me because we weren't near the top of Google rankings for the search term "Classroom heating". I said I didn't even know we provided heating for classrooms. He said we don't, but it's something he wants to get into. <bangs head on table>. "Give me good content and let Google sort itself out"

Google provides helpful guides on how to construct proper websites. I'm surprised by how few sites follow it.
