Come to the Dark Side; we have cookies
Thursday, May 20th, 2010 06:24 pmMan, sharonleewriter.com is getting hammered (with a small hammer, relatively, but it's a small site) by gibberish spam. None of it comes from the same IP address, none of the addresses are the same; the links are all different.
Every one of them has "rel="nofollow" Well. Anybody with security training willing or interested in seeing this stuff and trying to figure out how to block it?
In other news: Do not forget that there is an eBay auction going on right now for a rare and pristine copy of the hardcover edition of Pilots Choice, which includes Local Custom and Scout's Progress -- just in time for the release of Mouse and Dragon! The current bid is $75US, which is a steal. Go on, just go over and take a look. You know you want to. The auction goes over tomorrow, Friday, May 21 at around 2:00 p.m Eastern.
The day-job today encompassed shredding, and throwing stuff away, and visiting the mail room several times, and filing all the stuff on my desktop, now that I'm done with working on them, and then backing up the desktop, for, lo! I am in line to get a new Mac this summer. Which is good, because mac the Mac is getting to the point where he's crashing two, three times a day -- more, if I do something Morally Reprehensible, like use the scanner, or open, and then try to enter data into, an Excel file.
Poor mac, he taught me how to use a Mac (IT, offended that someone coming on-board in January didn't want to wait until the usual time (July) for a computer, handed me the box -- "Here. Secretaries get Macs." -- and cut me loose. Good thing I hadn't actually expected to get any training). But, still, he's been good to me, has mac. Mind you, I still don't know how to download and install a program, but, the new one will, as the old one did, have programs that Come With, and I'll make do with whatever those may be.
Pretty day. Hot, though. Over 80F/27C.
