I received a note today from Jimmy Stockard of the FP Class of 1953. They are planning a bus trip to Gatlinburg in September 2009 and have invited anyone from other FP classes to participate. There's too much info to post here but if you are interested I can email it to you. If interested, drop me a note.
Sometimes you can't help but wonder if its worth the effort to try to have a web site. That's especially true when your read that Security firm Websense has issued an advisory warning about malicious code being added to web sites that redirects visitors to other web sites. The other web sites try to infect the diverted PC with malware. If the site can't find a browser weakness it can exploit it tries to trick the user into downloading a Trojan virus. As Charlie Brown would often say, "Good Grief."
Chances are folks who are at the most risk of having a browser weakness are those that use the older browsers rather than the newer versions of Internet Explorer, Firefox, or Chrome browsers. Most folks using our web site have Internet Explorer 6 or 7. If you wish to update those IE browser versions you can find a link directly to Microsoft in an ad associated with the April 2009 blog article titled "For Your Information." If you don't see an IE 8 ad by that article clicking on the title to the article should activate the ad. That's the "context related" advertising you sometimes hear about. Sorry, but I am not aware of any ads in the class blog with direct links to the other major browsers.
If you experience any unusual "events" while using the class web site close your web browser and run your Internet Security software. Then, please let me know what happened, and if your Security software found anything, and what the virus was named if that info was available.
Hopefully, we won't have any problems. But it wouldn't be wise to ignore the possibility. Above all, don't even consider downloading anything to your computer that some web site that you didn't even open on purpose "tells you" that you need to download.
If you have any questions please drop me a note.
I received a note from Betty Molcany Barber with the following message:
This is what the Barber family was doing in March on Friday the 13, 2009. We were in Las Vegas at the Flamingo Hotel celebrating the wedding of our youngest son, Scott. Camilla Fulco Doughty and Johnnie Ross McKinney joined us for the happy time. Mom and Dad Barber hope that grandkids won't be too many years away now!
Betty also sent several photos taken at the event. They are posted in Album 02 on the Photos web page. They are numbered as 95-97.
