How to cook couscous

May 11th, 2008

Since the internet sucks for finding out…

Cover with one to one and a half times its volume of hot water and leave to soak for 10 minutes.

Simple, now why can’t every site say this? :-)

Facebook Applications

Facebook Stupid Requests

Why, just why?

Do people really add these stupid facebook applications just because someone they may or may not know has added them and then sent them the request?

Sorry, but I don’t think I’ll ever want to play “Have I Ever…”.

Exchange 2003 pop3svc stuck starting

May 11th, 2008

I recently experienced a problem with an Exchange 2003 deployment where pop3svc was stuck starting.

To resolve it, try killing inetinfo.exe using Task Manager.

You should then be able to restart the pop3 and imp services via MMC.

Make sure you start the pop3/imap services via the Exchange System Manager as well as via MMC.

Byethost mentioned on StopBadware.org

May 7th, 2008

Byethost has been mentioned on the StopBadware.org blog - Taking a Byet Out of Badware!

Maxim’s comments are very positive - hopefully there is scope for some form of partnership to help the eradication of badware from the Byethost servers.

Fighting badware is challenging as, as a host, you are always one step behind the spammers and phishers. Proper support from organisations like StopBadware will really help reduce the time between a new badware site being created and the host being notified.

Only cooperation between the hosts and enforcement groups will see an end to badware!
