Harold, I am guilty of the Secunia posts as well, I usually look to see
what Clint posts so I don't do a duplicate, but sometimes we post
different entries.
Using your computer is as full of problems as anything else. I have
problems with programming which sometimes gets caught by other
programmers or bots and are reported to Secunia, sometimes not :( The
computer is like my garden and bugs and birds causing problems or the
transmission in my van, it needs attention and care on a regular basis
and if it doesn't get it then it won't perform well when expected.
As for your Instant Messenger, I've used it on and off again for 5 or 6
years and have not once had any problems with it nor have any come
through it. Same with the Yahoo, AOL, and others, unlike email <groan>,
and now there is blogging as well for keeping in touch with others and
that gets it's own share of problems too.
I don't like stress either Harold but those 2000 odd pumpkin plants and
some sour cherry trees on my property are going to bring some stress
soon enough. But working through the stress will enable us to enjoy the
fruits (no pun intended) of our labours. Too bad Secunia doesn't have
anything for sour cherries :(

Hello again,
I say this a little bit in jest but thanks to Clint (and now I see Peter
is also in the Secunia parade), I'm being introduced into a whole new
"world of worry" ... as though life doesn't throw any other curve balls
at people. In fact, I now boodmarked <http://secunia.com/> which is
telling me I have to be careful with Instant Messenger (which I use with
my grandchildren; a program very popular with kids), and my MSOffice
2000, which this last posting says is also in trouble.
Life's been good to me; I don't have problems. What am I supposed to do
now, look foe them? Again, no offense meant to anyone; both Clint and
Peter are heads and shoulders above the average people I know and
contribute mucho to helping others. It's just that there's a bit of
irony in these reports in that I enjoy a life with minimum stress and
Secunia has other plans for me. --- Harold
