A new day, a new security implementation. I now have Outpost as my firewall – gives me a lot more control than Zonealarm and my internet connection seems stable enough to use it!

Hacksfs has some good links and information about Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002 which I got on Saturday – managed to land several times on the first flight – but not managed to land on the runway yet!
this site doesn’t seem to work under Mandrake – no idea why. This linux fing is difficult!
I couldn’t find my posting about removing MSN messenger permanently, and I’ve needed it twice this week so for those people looking for it (and for my absentmindness) you just need to run RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\inf\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove
Wreak some vengeance!
Yesterday was the London Marathon – I didn’t compete, but I did finish my own marathon – and that was my next goal of running 2km – 13 minutes and 38 seconds for the time keepers amongst you. Then did my rower, cross-trainer,steps and bike and felt suprisingly good after all that!

Going to try and get mandrake installed on the old pc this weekend!
Going to be a busy weekend. Been playing with DNS2go which gives me the ability to have this domain hosted either on my pc (when connected to the internet) or back to my main domain when i’m offline. Looks pretty good so far (and it also synch’s the pc’s clock too whilst connected 🙂
Registered a new domain today for work today. This has my scales work on it. By the end of next week it will be running on a nice IBM pizza box web server (I hope!)
