Lock-On Updated
January 8th, 2004HELL HATH FROZEN OVER
January 3rd, 2004The Second Patch for Stike Fighter: Project One has been released.
It’s been a VERY long time coming. I haven’t had a chance to play around with it much yet (just gone in and flown with keyboard), but it looks like the Radeon problems have been fixed. You can check out all the changes in the Readme.txt
You’ll need to have patch 1 installed first.
Killing Time
December 24th, 2003Killing some time before the x-mas eve festivities…….. Baahhh!
Tweaking a few things here and there.. I’ll try to get a page up on my Akers-Barnes Pit sometime during the holiday.
Changes
December 24th, 2003Moving my system specs to another page. I’ve since changed cases to an Antec Sonata, which is much quieter, and really has no mods to speak of.
I also worked on a new header graphic which I don’t think turned out too bad. Got me excited enough that I may actualy make an update once in awhile. 
Just Rambling
December 24th, 2003Just finishing up the book Alaska by James A. Michener. It’s been a very good read. Not quite as good as Chesapeake, but still gives a great overview to the History of Alaska.

Got my Window Installed
April 7th, 2001I received my Window Kit from pcmods.com yesterday, and got a chance to put it in this evening. It’s a little smaller than I had imagined it would be, but it’s still looks pretty nice, and was a breeze to install. I’ve also got my paint guy booked for this coming week.. WOOHOO!
So hopefully I’ll have some new pics in the next week or so.
IE 5.1 / 5.5 and OE Security Hole
March 30th, 2001This Microsoft Security Bulletin gives you info on a much needed fix if you are using MS IE 5.2, 5.5 or Outlook Express.
“Technical description:
Because HTML e-mails are simply web pages, IE can render them and open binary attachments in a way that is appropriate to their MIME types. However, a flaw exists in the type of processing that is specified for certain unusual MIME types. If an attacker created an HTML e-mail containing an executable attachment, then modified the MIME header information to specify that the attachment was one of the unusual MIME types that IE handles incorrectly, IE would launch the attachment automatically when it rendered the e-mail.An attacker could use this vulnerability in either of two scenarios. She could host an affected HTML e-mail on a web site and try to persuade another user to visit it, at which point script on a web page could open the mail and initiate the executable. Alternatively, she could send the HTML mail directly to the user. In either case, the executable attachment, if it ran, would be limited only by user’s permissions on the system. “
You don’t have to even open the offending email. Just previewing it can run the code.
Grab the update HERE Note: IE 5.1 with Service Pack 2 does NOT have this Security Hole.

Kids need violence too
March 24th, 2001Good to see this on Slashdot this morning.
“A city ordinance intended to keep children from playing violent video games in arcades and stores suffered a potentially fatal setback today after a federal appeals court ruled the measure cannot be enforced.The unanimous decision by the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals could pave the way for a U.S. Supreme Court review of the arcade ordinance, the first of its kind in the nation.”
Here’s a link to the Starnews article and here’s a link to the courts decision.
