MS IE vulnerabilities
First, here is a link to fix at least one of those nasty problems Internet Explorer had recently. Click on the Download link in the upper right hand corner somewhere. I have to say, this is not really MS's fault. They are just the most common software. The reason people write virus programs that affect IE and other MS software is the same reason most people write any kind of software for the operating system. It is the most common browser. It seems like every one uses it. I use FireFox and Mozilla. I have used Opera, bu not much. Netscape is really an older version of Mozilla. There has been some recommendations to stop using IE. I don't know if that is warranted in this case, but it might pay to use one of the other browsers until the security issues are worked out by MS. I got my mom on FireFox. She seems to like it.

Stick Figure Fighting
This is proof that some one out there has time to not only learn Flash, but to do something so very cool with it that I cannot resist placing a link to it on my blog. There is a funny AVI on their site too. It is not as involved as the above link, but worth a view. They even have a little interactive 3d shooter, but it is far too much. It approaches the sell-out point.
This is almost as cool as badger, but the badger site burned out very fast. You can still get a T-shirt though.
