The Conflicker Worm - Beware - Ensure Your Anti-Virus Program is Solid - 03/29/09 09:17 PM
I learned about The Conflicker Worm tonight on 60 minutes.  It reminded me of a cyber version of The Hunt for Red October book by Tom Clancy.
Here is a good article at PC World.
It sounds like it can gain an entry into home computers, but not as easy as corporate networks.  Regardless, the take away here is to ensure your anti-virus, firewall and malware protection software is up to date.

Sometimes one has to search or wonder where to find data, information and what is happening in a current metropolitan area.

Hiking in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park and Brecksville Reservation - 03/15/09 04:17 PM
I took a hike yesterday with a friend of mine, Glen, in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park (see my sledding post here) and at times, in the Brecksville Reservation (see the trail map).
Best of all, we could walk from our own homes into the park.  I took my black labrador retriever, and the three of us had a very relaxing two hour hike.
While I didn't take my camera, I plan to take photos when we go out again.  We saw two waterfalls, one small, and one about 20' high.  Shale bed creeks, and compressed rock formations that look as … (0 comments)
