Trust!

Posted on June 2, 2010 by swiggs

GotCha!

You now have a virus in your computer that allows me to look into everything that you do!

The reality is that you probably opened this website in blind faith that I wouldn’t screw you over. The fact is it is as easy as opening a link to be infected by any host of commands the creator wants for you.
Oh by the way you don’t have a virus!
There has been mutter that I am an untrustworthy person and that I lie. Well I am not going to deny the fact of this or try and defend myself. However is it not a false pretence that everyone will twist a story to suit their own morals and understanding and circumstance. And I know I am not immune to this fact and I guarantee that you aren’t as well.
All through life we make choices and decisions that weigh an outcome. I myself have made plenty of stupid mistakes and some blatent ones that are not excusable however this is where you learn from.
I think I am a straight to the point person. Definitely in the past year I have learnt from mistakes how to be more direct. And with this there is a sense of arrogance. Now in this arrogance lies confidence within yourself and hopefully this confidence translates to good. It is hard! And I am sorry to say as of late I have been misguided by this and have made several big mistakes.
But I am learning. And now its time for me to right those wrongs and this is going to change hopefully my outlook on the way I approach myself. If I have upset you or pissed you off in the past I apologize and I mean it. I want to help people. Its my main focus in life. I have a need to help people become better than I ever will be and if I tread on toes well I am sorry again.
There will be a change of way that this blog is written. There is going to be a personal section added and this is going to home a new diary that I am creating for a new project that I am working on and for this new job I am undertaking. This will be completely personal and not shop related. It will be interesting and probably straight to the point.
I am over BS and its over me!
Thanks

    So how do you go about checking what links to open.
    isn’t saying “now think about which links you open next time” a bit of a empty caution, the web survives by links plain and simple and there is no known 100% effective way to check that you are not being led to a compromised website. even links from friends can be compromised if their email account is hacked.
    sorry if this sounds harsh but whats your point?

    @Jim
    If you google this phrase:
    “How do I open shortened links safely” You shall find oodles of websites with free software to do the thing you ask!
    This is the link of the one i use http://www.expandmyurl.com/short-link-previewer-tool.html
    As for your whats the point??? You viewed my website at a point when I was doing some cleaning up and updating and many of my posts were shortened to a summery without the links to go to full view. Sorry if this has confused you.
