You open a Web page in Windows Internet Explorer 7, and then you minimize the window. After you do this, you maximize the window from the taskbar. In this case, the focus is not in the same position as the focus was when you minimized the window. Instead, the focus is on the Address bar […]
Nothing really scandalous or exciting like a denial of service or a hacking or something like that has happened – all it was was a hardware failure.

Well, we all know how successful the Phishing Filter has been at protecting web surfers from phishing sites – a big part of the success of the Phishing Filter has been the data sharing that happens – whether it […]
A while ago my boss (a Mac aficionado) pointed out the Mac v PC bloat video as just one more piece of evidence proving that Macs are better than PCs because, and I quote what he said, “Macs don’t come with any of that crap”. Video in question:http://movies.apple.com/movies/us/apple/getamac/apple-getamac-fat_480x376.mov So here’s the thing. How many people […]
