if you are getting random popups for your IE like I do, you should start to be very cautious about spywares. they are EVERYWHERE!!

i found this site that teaches you how to block spyware cookies etc.

but i do it a bit differently. instead of blocking all those cookies, i allow only cookies from the domains i know such as regretless.org, regretless.com, pure-essence.net

to do this, (for IE 6)
go to tools -> internet options -> privacy -> click on “advanced” button
and i made my setting like this. I blocked all cookies except session cookies. Then type the domains you wish to allow cookies below. This gives you tons of control about your cookies

you may do similiar things for other browser.

also this site gives you links to many free spyware prevention, removal softwares.

so i got the new smart media card from bestbuy and tried it with my camera. altho i am able to take some ok pictures, i still get reading error half of the time *insert sad face* but it’s better than nothing i guess. i just ordered this smart media card reader daynah told me about. i like the idea how you don’t have to keep your camera on when you are getting pictures off the card :) hopefully it will work.

note to myself: this page has FF X-2 wallpapers i’ve been looking for :)
