If you see this security pop-up...


Don't click any options.
According to PC Magazine Winfixer looks like an authentic Windows security alert. However:
WinAntiSpyware and WinAntiVirus use aggressive advertising, drive sales using false positive results, and inappropriately collect personal data. Sunbelt Software's research center states that WinFixer uses false warnings to goad trial users into purchasing it. The eTrust Spyware Encyclopedia reports that it installs without the user's permission or knowledge, displays popup ads not related to the program itself, and uses false warnings of "severe system threats". Tenebril Software's Spyware Research Center hits these same themes, adding that it may permit execution of unsigned executable code. And of course that oh-so-polished warning screen was delivered to my test system by known malware.

He may have apologized, & said that his comments were insensitive, but I don't see anywhere he says that his comments were wrong... .

Farewell to a Princess

We had a sad morning as we took our princess cat, Winnie, for one last trip to the vet.
She was almos fourteen years old, & the last of the four cats that J & I had when we first moved in together back in 1995.
Winnie has had health issues off & on for the last couple of years, but we were able to keep her feeling pretty well.
Just after Thanksgiving, though, she really stopped eating almost anything, & began losing weight. After a trip to the vet last week, & lots of tests, we found out she was jaundiced, & having liver problems.

She spent the week there, receiving IV fluids, but still not eating willingly for anyone. She came home with us yesterday to see if she would eat for us, in her own home, but our vet had already said that there really wasn't anything long term that could be done for her since her liver functions were continuing to go down hill.
She didn't show any interest in either food or water, but was happy to curl up with her mom and purr while getting loved on. Winnie spent the night on the bed between us, & this morning we decided that she was telling us she was ready to move on.

She was such a princess all her life, always grooming herself to look pretty & pushing other cats aside to get attention from whoever was on the sofa.
And now she can play with her brother again, and her little girl who was lost as a kitten.

We love you, Winnie, & know you'll come back to visit. Thank you for all of your love & purrs over the years.

That smell

Throughout the day today, I've gotten an occasional whiff of something not nice, but couldn't quite figure out what it was.
Then while I was on my cell phone with the wife I realized... the familiar & faint smell of cat Spray!!.
Apparently one of the guys — & I'm sure he knows who — sat on my phone as it sat on the shelf last night, and got a little something on there... . YUCK!!
Guess I'll clean the phone & the holster with a bit of peroxide tonight when I get home.
