If you're using Firefox, Thunderbird, or SeaMonkey, go update it ASAP. We're talking critical security flaws and lots of them, especially in Firefox. The kinds that can leak your personal info, run malicious code of your machine, and corrupt your memory.

That is all.

Note taken.

You have been posting more often lately. This is a nice change.

Yeah, I feel a little more comfortable this quarter. It's not that I didn't post last quarter, though. It's just that I have a bunch of half-finished entries marked private. Moving to a new place made me feel discomfited for a while. Every time I'd go to post, I'd realize that sharing those feeling was probably the only thing that could make them worse.

Thank you kindly!

I have lost track of all my RSS feeds b/c of law school. I've decided not to check anything except what friends share, blogs, and webcomics, otherwise I get tangled up in news.

Luckily one of my classes has a weekly assignment called "exploit research", for which we must read the security bulletins and write up a brief summary of one. If only my class were on a Tuesday instead of a Monday, I would have warned us all last week. Oh well, no harm, no foul.

I totally understand what you mean. I compromised by making a separate user account on my computer called "school" so that I can keep a more work-like set of desktop icons and browser settings and so forth.

Better news than blue.

Thanks for the warning. I updated SeaMonkey and it's working fine.

Oh good, I'm really glad it worked.
