Online in Winston-Salem, North Carolina
as we had stopped over in Commerce, GA - I had updated some windows microcrap files - the last 2 security updates, unbeknownst to me, were defective to have on my laptop - I could not figure out why it showed that I was online and yet nothing would navigate (either wifi or my verizon access) - just pass it along - that if someone you know is having difficulties getting online - on the laptop - to delete the last 2 security updates ending in the numbers 951978 and 951748 (start>control panel>add/remove software> click updates 'check' box)
Anyways, just passing that on, and a little note to say We are thinking of Y'all in our travels on the pow wow trail. Looking forward to seeing some of yas out there on the trail possibly. We will try and get some pictures and/or video to post on the Multiply site. The preserve we are in, here in Advance, NC (outside of Winston-Salem ) is Very nice and Woodsy :) The temperature has been much more pleasant than July in Florida THAT is for Sure!!!
Travel Well,
Much Love and many prayers,
Here is what my brother just sent:
ReplyDeleteLook what I found online about their stupid patch. What total crap. So we don't need the
patch...those of us who are smart enough to run firewalls on our machines. I would not load the
patch KB951748, and keep ZoneAlarm on the high setting.
------------------------------------------------------
If you are running Zonealarm and install the July security patches you will no longer be able to
access the internet. Fixes are as follows:
Either lower the internet firewall setting in zonealarm to medium OR unistall microsoft's security
patch KB951748.
Thank you Microsoft.
