I keep tweaking and tightening my anti-spam rules for my mail server – but the amount of inbound spam is getting crazy. I’m catching about 95% of bad mail – and getting all viruses – but I’m looking at switching to a dedicated inbound mail filter.
I’m probably going to run SpamAssassin and ClamAV running on SLES9.
Don’t ask why – but I had need to reset an Administrator password on a Windows XP workstation today.
I had forgotten the password, it was locked out, the machine wasn’t in AD – and I was stuck.
Luckily there are a wealth of tools to help in this situation – including this. Petter Nordahl-Hagen has written a stunning Linux based boot floppy that just fixes things like this in seconds. Thanks Petter.

My laptop dual boots [I swap between two 80GB hard drives] between Windows XP and Novell Linux Desktop.
My XP installation has a really annoying problem with Hibernate – described in this Microsoft article. Put simply – it can’t Hibernate about 90% of the time.
There is a lengthy blog post describing the issue – and today a hotfix was released from Microsoft for the issue.
I am trying to get hold of the patch.
Firefox 1.5 should now be available.
Even mozilla.com had a makeover.
Firefox 1.5 is pretty great. My beta feedback:
Here’s to the next 100 million downloads!
