In the period of December 2010 until August 2011, Cisco shipped warranty CDs that contain a reference to a third-party website known to be a malware repository. When the CD is opened with a web browser, it automatically and without warning accesses this third-party website. Additionally, on computers where the operating system is configured to automatically open inserted media, the computer’s default web browser will access the third-party site when the CD is inserted, without requiring any further action by the user.

I feel bad to finally give up my Pre for a new phone.  I just couldn’t take it anymore. My Pre is an original and has been through way too much over the years.  I hacked it with the WebOS 2.1 which isn’t supposed to be on there, the screen was broken, cracked, scratched, and even had pieces of plastic flaking off from being in the sun for 15 mins.  The keyboard only worked sometimes, or would just repeat the letter “ooooooooooooo” throughout all applications.

I hope the new Google phone serves me well.  I got it for “almost” free at Best Buy Mobile because they were giving the phone away for free today (with 2 year contract and activation fees of course).  Head on over here to pick one up for yourself: bestbuy.com/mobile

If you forget your Windows password, you can download and use this tool to reset it: http://pogostick.net/~pnh/ntpasswd/

It works great, I’ve used it several times over the past few years.  It just looks a bit intimidating.  It’s all text based and very Unix-Like.

I’ve had a few computers recently that had their file type associations messed up after malware infestations, the tips listed on this site help out wonders!

One of the things that this can fix is when a computer can’t open executable programs, such as cmd.exe or any .exe file.

There are lots more, so you’ll have to check the page out to find out if one of them will fix your problem.  They are reg keys, so you might be afraid to use them but I’ve successfully used a few without problems.
