    Shelby Expedition

    Quote Pete/Steve I just sent the payment for my new baby. I got this car because it is the total package. I will not drive her but a couple thousand miles a year so comfort has taken back seat. She does not have ABS, but has 8 piston 15" front brakes... I think it is realatively safe to say...

    Raced an LS1 Trans Am

    A stock Mark should get trashed by a LS1 TA :). Hell, my very lightly modd'd one gets beat up by my coworkers automatic Porsche 928s. We won't talk about comparing it to my C5. But hey.. You know how much I like Transams? I traded one (was an LT1 w/6spd, about 16k miles) with low miles...

    Anyone getting 'Windows Alert' form of Ads?

    Actually, the integrated Windows XP product isn't that bad, just not real configurable. It does a very good job of stopping intruders though, especially since you've already paid for it. Alternatives such as zone alarm are fine to, but I prefer a less annoying hardware solution. I run a...

    Anyone getting 'Windows Alert' form of Ads?

    Thats not a fix. Thats simply disabling the service. Bottom line, you have that port open to the net chances are other services are also vulnerable ! On XP, consider enabling the firewall functionality or purchasing a inexpensive firewall appliance (cable modem/dsl router such as a Dlink...

    Lookout for Sobig.E virus

    Thats a neat one. Looks like there are an awful lot of people already infected by the number of copies of it being sent to my email address(s) and the origin IPs all being different for the most part. It's unique in that it sends itself out, zipped. And of course most AV solutions didn't...
