My doggy Kali



My beautiful loving friend and companion Kali girl.













She was the best doggy ever. A mix of full breed Giant Schnauzer and Rototiller. Almost 3 feet tall and weighing in at 130 lbs. Very dense and just a true sweetheart.

ALERT! Problems with Mozilla Firefox 5.0 ALERT!


ALERT! Problems with Mozilla Firefox 5.0 ALERT!



As I have been a proponent of switching from the vulnerability riddled Internet Explorer telling everyone to use a different browser because of IE's long known issues, I feel it my responsibility to alert everyone to significant problems with Mozilla Firefox 5.0. I first thought it was me but noticed that once I upgraded to Firefox 4.0 my programs and other actions would not respond or work properly. This got worse when I moved up to FF 5.0. The article by well known tech person and tech writer for the New York Times outlines it all in his article linked and attached.

I downgraded to 3.6 and all work fine except Mozilla is not going to support it for long and it will not be watched for vulnerabilities e.g.; viruses, spyware, worms and such nasty things. As austere as it looks Google's Chrome browser now looks better and better.
