Spam Buster

Spam. Nobody likes it. Nobody wants it. No, we aren’t talking about the canned meat, but those unsolicited, unwanted, irrelevant, or even inappropriate messages that hit our email in mass quantities. While most mailboxes have some type of spam filtering software built into their system, they never seem to do a very good job of catching what you want them to catch, and letting through what you want them to let through. Therefore, it becomes increasingly important to turn to some type of additional spam filtering product. One such filtering system, designed for Outlook and Outlook Express users, is receiving rave reviews for its superior detection and low rate of false positives (i.e,. what you want to get through does).


Cloudmark Desktop, formerly known as SpamNet and SafetyBar, uses a unique community-based filtering process. This community-based filtering system relies on users to report any new spam. Within minutes of a spammer being reported, they are placed on a blacklist. At that point, no other member will receive that particular spam. Cloudmark also applies the same basic process to phishing email scams.


What is interesting is how Cloudmark creates a digital reputation model of reporting spam. Each user starts with a neutral reputation. A user’s reputation will rise if they are among the first to identify undesirable content. On the flip side of the coin, a user’s reputation falls when they falsely reports spam. The result is a system that is automated, highly scalable and resistant to tampering.


An added bonus is that because the software doesn’t depend upon the user to configure its settings, it installs in minutes and is easy to use. Cloudmark blocks over 98% of spam from reaching your inbox and boasts over one million users worldwide.


The cost of program is $39.95 for a one-year subscription. The subscription is renewable annually. For those wanting to test drive the product, a free 15-day trial period for either your Outlook or Outlook Express is available.

Who are the Players in the Antivirus Industry?

Everyone in the United States has heard of the leading antivirus vendors Symantec, Mcafee, Computer Associates, and Trend Micro. These companies have market-leading presence in the United States. Microsoft, as well, has plans become a key player in this market. Microsoft acquired intellectual property and technology from GeCad software in 2003, a company based in Bucharest, Romania. They also acquired Pelican Software, which had a behavior based security as well as Giant Company Software for spyware and Sybari Software, which manages virus, spam, and phishing filtering.


A lot of discussion has centered on whether Microsoft with come to own a dominant position in the antivirus market by simply bundling its technologies with its operating systems at no charge. This is a similar technique applied in other markets such as word processing and Internet browsers.


Of course there are a number of antivirus vendors who also play in this market. There are many companies with great market presence in other countries that are beginning to become more widely known. These vendors include GriSoft out of the Czech Republic, Sophos in the united Kingdom, Panda Software out of Spain, Kaspersky in Russia, SoftWin in Romania, F-Secure in Finland, Norman in Norway, Arcabit in Poland, VirusBuster out of Hungary, and AhnLab in South Korea.


It is not clear where the industry is heading and everyone in this market faces a rapidly changing landscape. The amount of effort to find and provide fixes for viruses is staggering. Malicious programs are getting more complex and the number of them is increasing. Many companies may find themselves without the resources to match the efforts of those truly bent on creating havoc. Some virus companies are getting of hundreds of new samples a day! Moreover, the new viruses are getting "smarter" in that they propagate themselves quickly and they often hide themselves and are smart enough to move around in a system by renaming themselves in an effort to make it hard to remove them.

Ensuring Product Quality through Fulfillment Services

Products or commodities should always be accounted well in order to see how the company performs and at the same time, ensuring the on time delivery of these products for the consumers availing them. With this in mind, companies resort to fulfillment services in order to address operations such as inventory, record-keeping, product security, and delivery, as this help them save time and will allow them to take care of other concerns that will be beneficial for the company and its services.


With practicality in mind, a third party to take care of fulfillment needs is really advisable but it has to be ensured that the reputation of the company is not compromised. The company has to be sure that the fulfillment services that they will choose will be in line with the aim of customer satisfaction and accessibility.


It is important that a company has to get acquainted by the services that a fulfillment company has to offer. Examine the technology, the years of operation, the facility and the accounting process that they offer, plus of course the companies that they are already serving.


To get the best, make sure that the fulfillment services offer both product fulfillment and order fulfillment services. They should be experts in giving product information to customers who might be interested with the product, plus the ability to address concerns regarding the product, and to help in the promotion as they get in contact with the customers. As for product, the delivery, the inventory, and the storage of products has to maintain their good condition and make sure that the delivery is on time.


AMS Fulfillment Services is one of the leading and trusted companies that businesses can count on for their warehousing needs. It understands how important and how fragile products are and so they are not compromised when these are put into their hands. It eliminates the worries of companies of product inquiry, order acquisition, stocking or storing of products, inventory, and delivery. Therefore, quality and customer satisfaction is ensured.

Surfing the Web Anonymously – Questions to Ask

When you surf the web it is possible to learn information about you even when you don't want to advertise who you are. This is true even if your system contains no virus or malware software. Specifically information that is easily available online includes your IP address, your country (and often more location information based on IP address), what computer system you are on, what browser you use, your browser history, and other information. It gets worse. People can get your computer's name and even find out your name if your machine supports programs like finger or identd. Also, cookies can track your habits as you move from machine to machine.


How do people get this basic information about you?


When you visit another web site, information about you can be retrieved. Basically, information is intercepted and used by others to track your Internet activities.


How do you stop this from happening?


First of all, it is possible to serf the web anonymously and thereby stop leaving a trail for others to find. Note that this is not fool-proof, but it makes it much harder for people to know who you are. There are products called anonymous proxy servers that help protect you. The anonymous proxy server replaces your Internet address for its own. This has the effect of hiding your IP address and making it much harder for people to track you.


How do I get an anonymous proxy server?


There are many vendors who sell anonymous proxy servers. There are also free proxy servers available to you. Two such products are ShadowSurf and Guardster. Guardster (http://www.guardster.com/) offers various services for anonymous and secure access to the web, some paid as well as a free service. ShadowSurf (http://www.shadowsurf.com/) ShadowSurf provides anonymous surfing at their site for free. Go to it and you will find a box to enter a URL that you want no one to track. There are many others, but here are two that are frequently used.


Another interesting product, given the recent news about the Google search engine filtering its findings for the Chinese government, is Anonymizer (http://www.anonymizer.com). This company, among others, recently (Feb 1st, 2006) pressed that it "is developing a new anti-censorship solution that will enable Chinese citizens to safely access the entire Internet filter-free" (http://www.anonymizer.com/consumer/media/press_releases/02012006.html).


Does an anonymous proxy server make you 100% safe?


No. Still, you are much better off if you use such technology.


What other things should I be concerned about when trying to keep my private information private?


Three other items come to mind when trying to keep your information private. First, you can use an encrypted connection to hide your surfing. This article does not go into detail on this, but search the web and you will find a lot of information on this. Secondly, delete cookies after each session. Third, you can configure your browser to remove JavaScript, Java, and active content. This actually leads to limitations, so you need to think about the cost/benefit of this course of action.


Anything else?


Wishing you happy and safe surfing!

Barcelona

Although Fariz RM is in jail, I still love his song, especially his song entitled "Barcelona"

Sparkling Lights In Center Town
Atmosphere Of Flamenco Sounds
Drifting All Around
Here I Sit By My Side Alone
Watch The Feet As A Rollin` Down
City Alley Street

And When I Realize
Somebody Catch My Eyes
Ask Me To Dance Her Style
She Said “Quiere Listed Bailar Conmigo?”

“Quiere Darme Su Direccion Senorita”
Would You Take Me To Come Along
With You Tonight
“Como Se Pronucia Mi Amore?”
I Just Want You To Know
My Heart Feels Bright

Cause Tomorrow I Must Go
But My Promises Will Show
That I`ll Be Back For Love That Grow
And The Romance That I Had Found
Tonight In Barcelona

[Reff]
So Would You Kiss Me, Hold Me Tight
Dance Through The Night
Take Me To All Your Fantasies
And I Will Still Remember
Nights We Left Barcelona

“Lo Siento Mucho Why You Say So”
Cause I Have To Leave You For Times
That I Don`t Know
Drop Of Tears Couldn`t Stop Me From Cryin`
In My Heart There Will Be No Time To Be As One

[Bridge]
Those Nights Had Run So Fast
Stories That Couldn`t Last
Our Times Will Spent The Rest
Of Love From Me And You
The Nights In Barcelona

[Back To Reff, Bridge]

“Hasta La Vista Mi Amor”
Kiss Me Goodbye
Show Me Your Promises Of Love
And I Will Still Remember
Nights We Left In Barcelona

Nights We Left In Barcelona
Barcelona …Yeah … more on military toy ..

talktalk.co.uk -- free broadband!

For you that have to pay some amount of money just to get a very slow internet connection as I do, you'll be jealous with packages from talktalk.co.uk, because every package they offer publicly, features Free Broadband as their default 'bonus' to consumers.


Up to 8 megabytes per second connection speed sounds great, specially, this high speed broadband is free, because I have to pay around £27 ONLY for as low as 7-12 kbps unreliable internet connection per month and still being charged for around £10 for phone cost!


With the sum of my internet connection and phone cost above, I could have a Talk Total Anytime Call plan (£24.99) from talktalk.co.uk, with free but fast broadband, 40 GB per month quota, free modem, and ofcourse Free landline calls!


Unfortunately those plans are only available in UK, but I'm sure someday their packages will go internationally!
