Aside from updating virus definitions, is there anything else we can do to secure our computers?  Thanks!

Well! Tonight is the night I start 3rd shift. Any suggestions on how
how to handle sleep deprivation. 
Everyone gets a night to pick what they want and tonight it is breakfast. Nmsg

I'd like to see me trying that sober -- can't image I would have enough coordination to do it
any length of time!
You obviously didn't read the post carefully. Try again in a more sober frame of mind.
It made sense to me.
Worm Fixers

Sometimes you can find fixlets on Microsoft website as long as you have another PC available.  Another reason why you should not open attachments and delete messages from people you do not know or that you have not subscribed to.  Sounds terrible.  Why would someone want to be so malicious?  Crazy these days.  Thanks for the info admin.


Beware of new e-mail worm!

I just read an article regarding a new e-mail worm that is showing up. Hopefully, we can all be aware of it before it presents itself to us.


The article was at: http://forum.sitefever.com/viewtopic.php?id=38.


Sounds like some kind of worm, all right
Definitely run that scan. Best to do so from the Symantec site itself. Good luck!
Be careful-------there's a new WORM out there. See link to USA article and

http://www.usatoday.com/tech/news/computersecurity/2006-01-30-email-virus_x.htm?csp=N007


"...fast-spreading e-mail worm is raising alarms because its sole purpose is to obliterate the everyday working documents widely used by consumers, students and businesses.
The Kama Sutra worm — also referred to as Nyxem.E and Grew.A — is unnerving because, unlike other e-mail worms, it appears to be detached from any profit motive.


It is designed to destroy all Microsoft Word, Excel, Access and PowerPoint documents and Adobe Acrobat and Photoshop files on all hard drives connected to an infected PC...


appears in e-mail in-boxes with subject lines such as "hot movie," "A Great Video" or "Crazy illegal Sex!" enticing the recipient to click on an attachment. One variation makes reference to the ancient Sanskrit book on sexual positions.


By clicking on the attachment, the victim launches a program that disables anti-virus protection. The infected PC then begins to send copies of similarly tainted e-mail to every e-mail address on the victim's hard drive...


It implants a program to erase common work files on the third day of the month, hitting even external data-storage devices connected to the infected PC...


More than 500,000 PCs are believed to have been infected since it first appeared on Jan. 16. That's a modest infection rate, but victims face grim consequences. On Friday — Feb. 3 — any infected machines will lose all Microsoft documents and Adobe files.!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The worm is designed to inject file-deletion instructions onto corporate servers. It does so via systems that share data with employees logging on to corporate systems from remote locations. "The worm can spread quite well once it finds its way beyond corporate firewalls,


Victims can tell they've been infected if they clicked on an e-mail attachment and had their keyboard and mouse freeze up, forcing them to reboot


Disinfection requires reinstalling an anti-virus program updated to protect against this worm, then scanning to make sure it has been purged.


"It's about proving the virus community can't be stopped by anti-virus companies," says John Pironti, banking security consultant at Unisys. "


There will be more strikes

Read this:  All labourers and clerks will observe strike on May 17, May 24 and finally they plan to observe a complete strike on May 31 with forced closure of the government offices and protest demonstrations and sit-in for acceptance of their demands.

ASR strikes again.....

ASR version - PMH: Depression and finds that testicles circumflex me.


Dictated version - PMH: Depresssion and sinusitis. PSH: Tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy.


If you can't beat 'em, join 'em.


ASR strikes again...and again.

What was put: PSH: Debilitation anatomy and knee surgery.


What it should be: PSH: Tubal ligation, laminectomy at L5-S1, knee surgery.


Ya gotta love it.


Previously unknown worm-like creatures made of
something like silicone. Supposedly the only match to this material has been made to some nanotechnology substance that is being used to destroy bacteria on meats, and soon to be used on cut fruits. Cooking kills them, but who cooks lunch meat? They are using it on cold cuts. The company making the technology won't say what big company is buying, either.

The term Morgellons is not new, but its use for this disease is new. This disease became known in I think 2004. That's pretty darn new.

And I should stress that I have not seen any worms or movement under my skin so far. I just have small nonhealing wounds (that look the same as a stage in Morgellons), and my MD is being evasive.


Sorry, but that strikes me as funny.
They'll let you use vacation time for the day you missed due to a hurricane forcing you to evacuate from your house?  Hmmm, sounds real generous, NOT!  LOL  You're certainly a dedicated employee to them by buying a laptop and working at the library.  I would never do that.  If it was my company, you all would have at least the next week off paid as a gesture of my support during this troubling time.  Kudos to you for being such a good employee.
ConeyIslandGirl strikes again
Well, at least for the one finger she's pointing at everyone else, she's got three pointing back at herself.  I have never had a problem with a lack of teamwork or help since I started MT 5 years ago, but I don't have the attitude problem that the OP seems to have either.  Some people just never figure out that THEY may be the problem.  Oh well, maybe tomorrow no one will pee in her Wheaties.
Sounds like D&L strikes again to me

By any chance are the husband and wife team, Donna & John? 


If so, join the ranks of 20+ others of us former D&L ICs and employees who never received our pay for the work we produced in June-July 2007. 


If it is them, I suggest you run quickly the other way and cut your losses now.  Sadly, there is not a thing that can be done to them.  PA Dept of Labor has no provision for ICs, and they are fully aware of it.  Dealing with the courts in NE PA is a joke, as they cannot figure out which magistrate handles which county.


ASR strikes again. When does the linguist strike??

This is what ASR put: AP lateral and oblique x-rays elected vision were obtained.


What doc actually dictated: AP lateral and oblique x-rays of the left 5th digit were obtained.


 


C phone SCAM - Kristen Pineda strikes again!
Contact me - I'll tell you what you need to do. SHE DOES THIS ALL THE TIME!!!!!

I saw HOWIE last night on a late night episode of Blind Date. too funny.
I'm thinking if they are smart they'll boot Rachel.  I think she's really smart and a good player.  I don't think Howie is all that smart or able to be a winner.  I think this could force Howie to hook up with James to go for the final 2.
It's taco night! (again.....) We had taco pizza last night, southwestern chicken soup before th
Maybe I'll just have a salad.
No, just trying it tonight. sm
Hope it goes okay, I have never tried it.  It was on a special about Elvis' favorite foods.  I read the reviews and they said the cake was very rich. 
I think Ace is gone tonight
Taylor was WONDERFUL last night! I really enjoyed his performance. I was not thrilled with Katherine or Paris. I thought Bucky, Kelly, and Elliot did really well. I did not like Chris' song last night, but not sure if it was just the song I didn't like or the way he did it. So, all in all I would have to say that the bottom three will be Ace, Paris, and Katherine. Ace will be the one leaving in my opinion.
What's for supper tonight? nm

Ladies, what is on for din din tonight?????

beef tenderloin, mushroom gravy, noodles, salad and some fruit.  Then, a whole pot coffee while I work.


What's for dinner tonight?
I'm going to make three types of maki-sushi and wontons because I have salmon, shrimp and tun in there to use up.  I just love messing with the little bamboo sushi mat.  It's so cute!  LOL
dinner tonight
With fresh tomatoes and peppers abounding in this area, I have made some salsa and we are having chicken burritos with fresh salsa and fresh peaches.  Not much work and lots of good eating.
What's for dinner tonight?
Leftovers here.  I am not cooking.  I've got homemade cheeseburger pizza, chipotle grilled chicken, biscuits and sausage gravy, tacos, soup, sandwiches and salad that need to be eaten up.
Prayers will be said tonight!

Did you see the news tonight?

Hundreds of children were killed, thousands and thousands have died in total they say. I am the mother of three children and watching those pictures on TV of those little lives lost is very disturbing, extremely saddening, and is a very emotional thing to watch or to try to even understand the magnitude of such losses for everyone involved or to make any sense of it all.


If you, by reading my post, misunderstood my post, I wholeheartedly appologize. It was not my intention to have a "hidden agenda" in my post. It was merely a question.


Dinner tonight
Meat loaf, mashed potatoes and brown gravy, creamed corn, broccoli/cauliflower salad and Kentucky Derby Pie for dessert.  I love to cook.

So what's for dinner tonight? SM

I was privileged to be a guest at the first night of Hanukkah last year, and we had latkes and doughnuts, it was all about the oil.


For the life of me I can't remember what we had the second night.


I was in the Bay Area of SF and I'll swear all I did was eat the whole time I was there. And it was all wonderful. My friend is the best cook I've ever seen.


I'm going to go tonight just because of your post.
I certainly could use a few good laughs.
tonight's dinner
Spaghetti with Italian sausages, garlic bread, and nice fresh, big green salad! Jello with fruit for desert.
What's for supper tonight?
Can't decide what to have.
What's for Dinner Tonight?

We are having pasta with steamed veggies and parmesan cheese, salad, garlic bread.  Vanilla ice cream with fresh strawberries for dessert.  MMMMM


 


24 was awesome tonight except
I can't believe Tony is dead. What a bummer. First Michelle, then Edgar and now Tony. I wonder who will be next!!!!
So... What's for Dinner Tonight?

what's for dinner tonight?
sick of cooking same old things 
Who do you think will be leaving tonight?
I think Kevin.
Elliot all the way tonight!

Tonight will probably be Paris
Dial Idol has Paris as the lowest with Kellie a close second.  For the margin of error, it could be either one of them but since Kellie has Vote for The Worst on her side, I think tonight will be Paris.  I was kind of embarassed by Katherine's dress. I was actually working while the show was on, and I looked up while she was singing and thought to myself "put those boobies away," lol.  I think she has a good voice, but she is playing the sexy bod card as much as Kellie is playing the dumb blonde card, although Katherine is a much better singer than Kellie.  I had tears when Elliott was singing last night.  My favorite is always Taylor, although I was disappointed in his song choice last night, and think he could have picked something better to have another magical night like last week.  Elliott was the best of the night and might have done better with the judges if he hadn't taken David Foster's advice on the arrangement of the song.  I think Chris is okay, but I just can't connect emotionally with him. He's never brought me chills or to tears or made me laugh or smile like Taylor has, or like Elliott did last night.  I think the bottom 2 tonight will be Paris and Kellie, with Paris leaving as she just doesn't have the fan base.
Thanks for all the help tonight.! I'm a different Susan
nm
AI - Who is going home tonight?

I think Paris tonight.

Tonight's vote...

LET'S ALL MAKE SURE "KAT"ERINE DOES NOT WIN...VOTE FOR TAYLOR...EVEN IFYOU DON'T CARE FOR HIM, STILL VOTE FOR HIM.


I've liked Taylor from the beginning, although as I stated earlier, this whole season has been a bit of a disappointment. 


 VOTE FOR TAYLOR!!!


Tonight show
I think Taylor is going to be on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno tonight.  I just LOVE him!
What's for dinner tonight?
I'm hungry !   
We're having that tonight
That sounds so good. I'm off to to grocery store, so I will pick up these things and give 'er a try. Thanks for sharing your recipe. I get so tired of the same things each week, and I use turkey meat in everything now, so this is right up my alley.
Need help with a recipe for tonight
At a friend's church function a couple months ago, someone had made a chicken casserole that had very simple ingredients, but was very good.  I could probably throw together what I think was in there but would really prefer to find a recipe for it if possible.  It had a cream-based sauce surely from canned cream of ?? soups...cubes of chicken....spaghetti noodles...and a melted shredded cheese and maybe either fine bread crumbs or parmesan topping.  Anyone have anything out there close to this?  Thanks!
I saw Lou Dobbs tonight.
Senator Dorgan from ND was on. He seems like an upstanding sort of senator! We need more like him.

(Interestingly, I'm a Republican, he's a Democrat, LOL).
