It's been a tough week
to host e-mail...
Dear ISP Clients:
This past week was a
tough one to host e-mail. Spammers from the Netherlands found
an exploit in our ISP NewsLine address list and I want to extend
my apologies for the two unsolicited stock investment advice e-mails.
We secured the mailing
list on Wednesday, but then continued to be
hammered by their continued attempts through Thursday.
The good news is all is
well, the storm has passed, and hopefully, next week will be a
better week. We appreciate your understanding of the dynamics
involved in the e-mail SPAM battles.
I'd also like to say
thanks to the
numerous people on this NewsLine distribution list, which is
predominantly from the local Danville
Area, who have called or e-mailed me after seeing the article in
last Sunday's Danville Commercial News about my upcoming Boston Marathon.
Those that know me well also know that it was quite a challenge to
qualify as they only accept the top 3% of the marathoners in the
U.S. and I'm happy to have made it.
Finally, keep your ears peeled for our newest "Hank" radio
commercial that starts running next week on WDAN 1490AM and WRHK
94.9FM. We always enjoy injecting some humor into this dry
technology business!
Regards,
Kevin E.

New Virus Comes
Disguised as IE 7 Download
If you receive an e-mail asking you to
download Internet Explorer 7, Beta 2, delete it. A new virus disguised as
a test version of Microsoft's latest web browser is in circulation
and looks very convincing with its polished format.

Wi-Fi Signal Spans 60

Intel has
dramatically upped the bar on Wi-Fi distance, claiming to have created a setup that spans 60 miles.
Using "steerable antennas" it is expected to be implemented in rural villages which are not
currently wired. Click
