History of the Permalink


Wondering what a permalink is?

Here's a good weblog post that describes what they are, what they do, and why they are important.

By the way, this site is now using permalinks-- look for the "#" sign below each post. Click on the pound sign, and you will be taken to the permanent location for that particular post.

Virus Alert: W32.Beagle.K@mm


Please be advised that a new virus is making the rounds as an email attachment. If you receive an email message with an attachment, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPEN THE ATTACHMENT unless you know exactly what it is and were expecting someone to send it to you.

The virus is attached to an email message that appears to come from the administrator of your domain name (they are forging the FROM: address to appear that it is coming from your domain). The message may look official, but the attached virus (possibly described as a README file) is a virus, not a legitimate document. Again, do not attempt to open the attached document.

Here are samples of the type of message you may receive:

=============================
