    Helping the handicapped

    I used the word handicapped. I realize too, most prefer disabled, or disability. I prefer it myself being disabled myself also. I chose the word "handicapped" because even though they are disabled their disabilities were a handicap to them online. If they wasn't handicapped online, I never...

    compatible modem for linux?

    Why don't the manufacturers say if their hardware works with Linux or not? I went to the USRobotics Website and looked I even found one that was sold out that said it was a serial port model too. But no where in the stats did it say it was Linux compatible. I don't get it with these...

    Social Engineering

    Thanks for your input sleipnir214 this was very helpful. I guess if computer users, and businesses alike used a common sense approach to Social Engineering, it would help a great deal. The words "Social Engineering" are not used enough I don't believe. It took me almost four years...

    Social Engineering

    I never thought of that. Thanks for pointing that out. I do have one more question though. How come forums don't have a subject related to this type topic? In my few years of learning the computer, and being at the end of my first quarter of School. This subject has not been brought up. I...

    Social Engineering

    Is this taught to everyone that is working for a specified company? Or do you pick and choose whom to teach these skills too? Say you have a janitor that cleans offices in your building. Does the janitor also need social engineering skills so they also don't fall for the trap? Is this also...

    can someone shed some light on this?

    Rest assured... word of mouth is no help either. I got high remarks, and A+ feed back that this Host was worth the money. Sheesh, I sure would hate to see one that got a bad report. I cringe at the thought. Surely there is a better way?

    can someone shed some light on this?

    Because I haven't found any information on this subject. It would be nice if a very experienced individual here could supply some tips for choosing a host, and critical signs to look for when deciding on a Host. This man brought my list to a stand still. It would be nice also if anyone has any...

    can someone shed some light on this?

    I am looking for a new Host. Quite a few others are too. With the exception of a few die-hards. From what heard, The Host was a one-man band. The only help he had was for the phone. He didn't do a good job in that department either. Finding a place I have it narrowed down to a couple places...

    can someone shed some light on this?

    Last month towards the end of May my Host was hacked. The person who did this exchanged out our index pages for a .bat file with their nice artwork included. Also this person included some nice gifts called Trojans, (two or more) and a worm for which they some would call a filed day on the...
