ZIM - without the - BRA

Published by cfrances under free Edit This

UPON my search in Technorati I ran across a post on Zimbra - a FF (insert-popup-FireFox) leftover when I reopened my browser - having already uninstalled Zimbra desktop in favor of Facedesk, an add-on desktop compliment to Facebook (online of course)… (more…)

Rerouting the system from TaskManager - Help with Mutater

Published by cfrances under Uncategorized, plugins Edit This

It seems that I have been experiencing “Oops” from Google with use of the internet in conjunction with the rather large software that is used to download/upload dictation files with a 3rd party company. I have made a quick demo / video clip, showing my most recent effort to compensate for a slower system, and try and avoid the company’s suggestion that I restart the program, go into the system and logout then log back in….rather tedious and a hard knock for my MS Word 2007 program…

Here are the steps followed through below - if you can withstand the view of MS Screensaver - personally, I am very impressed with this Freez freeware screen video capture quality …

1. Right click on your taskbar (generally, the bottom of you desktop) to view the menu items that include  TaskManager

2. Click TaskManager and go under the first tab to view your active programs - You should have already started up the program and it should be running, the one you wish to use and maintain a primary connection with during your surfing or software online use. (more…)

Foregoing comments on GTD to advertise a SF Specialty

Published by cfrances under Bloggers Edit This

A week delay in reading the news…It appears SF, San Francisco has topped the market query news with their own brand of solicitizing for bloggers. This time the jailed blogger is right up the alley of the San Francisco city dwellers via incarceration of the next -

a) a webworker

b) freelancer online

c) online ziner

d) any blogosphere  user  OR

e) San Francisco City Worker - add jargon you wish to add.

Details of perpetrator in the associated article titled, “Terry Childs — 
Will the true story ever be told?” dated FEB 20, 2009:
Name: Terry Child
Age: Not given
Sex: Male

Article archived at techrepublic.com ) by Tom Bowers…

Excerpt: “Terry Childs, the net admin arrested on July 12, 2008 for disrupting San Francisco’s wide-area network, still sits in the City of San Francisco’s county jail. He says he did nothing illegal while working for the city and argued that his actions, depicted as criminal, were in line with standard network security practices.”

As an IT head of admin with the City of San Francisco, Terry’s crimes appear as though their nature in being  divulgent and trespassing privacy matters, does not mention any leanings toward IP (not internet protocol, but the other infringing -cop word, Intellectual Property), with this accusation (among others):

  • Quotes from Bower’s article dated 2/20/09:
    • Childs configured a number of routers and switches with ‘no service password-recovery,’
    • He removed the start-up configuration from some devices,There were various methods
    • that Childs could have used to gain access to the FiberWAN, including “wireless access devices to different departments.
    • In his work area and home, they found lists of usernames and passwords, including the password of his supervisor.

    Is there any lesson to be told witht this recount from the zine-world? The unfoldling of criminal procedures (as yet, I now work at home as a legal typist, having forayed into the Dept. of Labor, Dept. of  Justice and City/Cty of SF myself - legal sec….) that read more like the AT&T new install bro-chures (to take from Child’s recumbent “bro” slang in the 2nd interview with InfoWorld …found here

InfoWorld.com published a 1/2 hour interview with Mr. Childs from the “different world” of jail on February 9th (publication date)
