Free Web site with real domain name?

This is interesting...Stumbled across this recently while surfing the internet. Microsoft is offering your own professional web site for Free (including domain name / web hosting / 500mb of space / email accounts.) I'll have to give it a try and see how it works.

The unfortunate part is you have to use Internet Explorer.

Secure Wi-fi surfing

Combine "Freeproxy" with "Hamachi" and you can securely surf the web from a public wi-fi location. Freeproxy runs on your home computer along with Hamachi (virtual vpn see my earlier posts.)

Evernote - Great Organizer of Random Items

EverNote is an intuitive note management application that gives you a single place for the easy input, organization and quick retrieval of all types of notes and content clippings. With EverNote you can conveniently capture and quickly find typed memos; excerpts from Web pages, emails, documents; passwords, phone messages, To-Do's, brainstorms, sketches, snapshots, and more.

I've installed it on my work notebook and have found it pretty useful for keeping track of notes, links to emails and documents in one spot.

Blink - The Ultimate Security protection for your Windows System

Just heard (Security Now episode 91 w/Steve Gibson Podcast) about what seems to be the best software for protecting your Windows Desktop System... The company name is eEye Digital Security. Their product "Blink" builds all of the necessary protection layers into a small form factor package. It blocks and remove viruses, spyware, worms, trojans, etc... It acts as a firewall/IDS/patch/cfg. reminder. It even will provide protection from unknown "0-day" exploits.

They offer a 1 yr free subscription to their product (after 1 year it only costs $22.00.)

Their site is http://www.eeye.com/html/products/blink/personal/index.html

I'll be giving this a try on my own home PC... will let you know what I think... But if Steve Gibson likes it, its usually a good thing!
