I found “The Ten Net Commandments” in the Spyware Weekly Newsletter of Dec. 10, 2005. I thought it was done quite well and wanted to pass this on to as many people as possible. So here it is.

1. Thou shalt not buy merchandise found in pop-up ads or spam.
2. Thou shalt not post thy email address, phone number, address or social security number to the Internet, nor shalt thou post anyone else’s.
3. Thou shalt not forget to update thy Windows every second Tuesday.
4. Thou shalt not connect to the Internet without installing an antivirus, nor shalt thou begin a scan without checking for updates.
5. Thou shalt not connect to the Internet without installing a firewall.
6. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s credit card number, nor his bank routing number, nor his social security number.
7. Thou shalt not enter thy credit card number without seeing the tiny padlock icon on thy status bar.
8. Thou shalt not reply to the email from the Nigerian banker.
9. Thou shalt not forward chain letters to thy friends and family.
10. Thou shalt not use “password” as thy password, nor thy birthday, nor thy children’s names.

I’m a huge fan of Mozilla Foundation and their products. So it’ not unusual for me to immediately have the latest stable version of Firefox and Thunderbird not to mention alpha/beta versions. Unfortunately Firefox v1.5 is the first version I’ve installed and immediately afterwards down graded to the previously stable final release (v1.07). Don’t get me wrong the bug fixes, new features and other imrpovements are great. However more then 50% of my Mozilla Firefox extensions and themes are no longer compatible nor could it find updates to fix the incompatibility problem. There was a few exceptions of extensions that did work, which I have listed below. I even went out to search for updates manually for Firefox v1.5 for my extensions and themes and I came up empty. I realize these extensions and themes are independant however I use a lot of them on a daily bases and can not go without them. In my case I could have survived if Chatzilla and Zhluk.com DevBoi extensions worked.

I was very impressed with the seemless and trouble fee upgrade to Firefox v1.5. Unfortunatly when I down graded something messed up causing user control popups and links not to function normally. I ended up having to uninstall Firefox (excluding my profile) and re-install from scratch. I hope to see the extesions updated soon so I can enjoy the benefits of Firefox v1.5.

At this point I would recommend to all users thinking of upgrading to Firefox v1.5 to check to see if the extensions and themes important to you work in Firefox v1.5 before upgrading. If you do upgrade of course make sure to do a backup of your critical files including creating a list of extensions/themes/plugins/search engines. I’m not aware of an extension that will create a list of all of those but there is one extension that can handle creating a list of extensions and themes, InfoLister.

I was searching for some technical information one day and ran across this flash movie someone created about 9/11. I know this is old but it’s a very well done flash that in my opinion reminds us all how fragile our lives are. The flash is quite sad and freaked me out thinking of my own daughter and how she would feel. Oh man it hurts even thinking about it. But I had to pass this on as I think it’s important that we don’t forget the past so we can make sure never to repeat our mistakes.

This seems like a mimic of a old movie with Robin Williams in
Jumanji which was made in 1995.
