Back to the blog

After a long break i decided to update the blog today, the combination of being very a busy boy at work and a rather hectic social schedule based on an upcoming friends wedding in the USA has put blogging on the backburner. I have been again fixing problems with friends and families PC's over the last few weeks, one PC had over 6000 instances of spyware which dragged performance down to a crawl. The latest Microsoft Anti Spyware beta software seems to be a good bet as a 'free' solution, i have used it on the XP installs that i encounter with spyware with great success, however i still use the 'always accurate' Spybot search and destroy to confirm that all spyware is removed. The micosoft resident spyware agents seem to add to the security of a XP install so take a look at the microsoft web site.
