CKnowledge

  1. Jumped the gun and took the Cloudflare page down. Will put it back up after official launch.
  2. CKnow is now using CloudFlare for incoming security. See... http://www.cknow.com/cms/blog/cknow-now-using-cloudflare.html
  3. Symantec hurting small vendors: http://www.cknow.com/cms/blog/suspiciousinsight-symantec-rating-hurting-small-software-vendors.html
  4. Analyze your hard disk: http://www.cknow.com/cms/articles/how-to-use-windirstat-to-analyze-your-hard-disk-contents.html
  5. Haiti aid a way to spread malware or con you: http://www.cknow.com/cms/blog/haiti-relief---good-and-bad.html
  6. Easy Windows Config: http://www.cknow.com/cms/articles/what-is-a-folder-with-file-extension-ed7ba470-8e54-465e-825c-99712043e01c.html
  7. Just upgraded the CKnow CMS and tweaked a few things. Thank you for your patience while some popups did not work for awhile. Enjoy!
  8. Want to know how to turn off that password request when Windows starts? That's now on http://www.cknow.com/ in the latest article.
  9. Just added some pages on secure file deletion. Still working on the Flash videos but the basic information is now up. http://www.cknow.com/
  10. Took AddThis off the CKnow site due to its starting to place a Flash-based tracking object on the site without prior notice. See blog...
  11. So far Win7 seems to be Vista with tweaks; rather like what Vista should have been. At least the UAC is not as intrusive (so far).
  12. Took the Windows 7 plunge today. Installed in a VMware virtual machine. The install went perfectly. Added to HIBERFILE.SYS page; more later.
  13. Done! The transfer from the old CKnow site to the new CMS-based CKnow site is now complete. Enjoy; please tell me what tutorials you need.
  14. OK, for better or worse, I've started to turn the CKnow CMS-based site live. So far I've linked the most popular content. Archives tomorrow.
  15. Celebrate! The archived pages are now all entered. A hot shower and Wagner in the background to get them done. A few more articles left.
  16. S is now done and I'm taking a break. Eyeballs get crossed if I spend too much time on this. Besides have to tend to the LPs I'm playing.
  17. Just finished R - heading into S now.
  18. After the festival, did manage to enter up through Q though. Done for now.
  19. Took day off to go to Arroyo Grande (CA) Strawberry Festival. Weather perfect. Lots of people. Things overpriced. But fun. :-)
  20. Now finished through letter M for the archived info. Also have tested how to do referrals from old pages. Just a matter of data entry now.
