Beware of this new Trojan that spreads through the internet. It exposes a 0day vulnerability on Microsoft Internet Explorer (CVE-2010-0249) which steals information on corporate networks. It allows remote code execution on infected machines.

What’s 0day?
Well basically it’s a security hole that is discovered by geeks or hackers that there is no available fix or update yet.

Microsoft rated it as Critical and they have already issued a fix on this Trojan. Affected versions are Microsoft Internet Explorer 5, 6, 7 and even Microsoft IE 8. You can view the full list of affected Microsoft Internet Explorers here and also download their updates/fixes on the issue.

If you are using Microsoft IE to browse the web, I suggest you update it before everything else is too late. Or, use an open-source browser like Mozilla Firefox or use Google Chrome. There’s a bunch of free web browsers floating on the web, you just have to choose one. But I suggest those to I’ve just mentioned above, or better yet, update your anti-virus virus databases.

2009 had gone by, I welcomed 2010 in our office, working on graveyard away from my love ones. But it’s not a big deal for me, new year is like any other ordinary day for me. And it was fun welcoming 2010 while working. Plenty of food, shouting and yelling, smiles all around you, red dresses, red shirts dominating the work place, you know, Filipino tradition things and all.

Since it’s a new year for me, I’m setting myself some new goals for a better me. First, I would like to lose weight. Yes, I have lost weight in 2009 alone. From 220 lbs. down to 195 lbs and still counting. That’s already a big achievement for me since I’ve never lost weight that much in my whole life.

Secondly, I wanna look good, together with my on-going of loosing weight, I work out. I’m following some routines to make my body lean. I’m picturing out my ideal body every day to encourage myself on my goal.

And lastly, I want to Read more…

No, Facebook doesn’t have any of the famous Family Computer game Commando. But I was curious when I saw this status message from my friend. I was bored and has nothing to do at the moment, so I tried it. The first time I tried to do it, I thought it didn’t work, ’cause I didn’t do the last part of it, which is writing something on the comment box. While I was typing my first letter to the comment box on my friend’s status message to comment that it didn’t work, I was surprised!

It looks something like this:

Ever wondered what that title means? Heh, well basically it’s a yell that “Kundoktors” shout to the passengers to inform or to tell them that the jeepney has this route, sasa, panacan, tibungco and bunawan. Now, you noticed, the Bunawan part of the title has a letter G on the last?

Well, one early morning when I’m on my way home, I usually sit on the front seat of a jeepney, and there’s this one Koreang, I mean Korean who asked the driver, “Bunawang? Bunawang?” Eh? Hehehehe… If you’re living in Davao and you hear about it, surely you’ll laugh.. Hehehe.

What does a dream mean? If it’s about your past, love life, does it mean something? I don’t know, maybe I’m just confused or something.

Well, as few of you knows (’cause my older posts about my past was deleted), let me give you some brief fact about it. Me and my 5-year girlfriend broke up last October 10, 2008. I know it’s almost a year since we broke up, but the last time we were together was just last February 2009. She had a new boyfriend, after a month or two, I had my new girlfriend too, she’s in Kuwait right now, working. To be honest, I don’t know if I can survive this LDR thing. Anyway, let’s go on to topic.

There’s this one time last week, I can’t remember what day it was. I was so deeply asleep, I know I was that deeply asleep ’cause I dreamed, I rarely dream, I don’t know why, but that’s me. I was kinda surprised why I dreamed about my ex-girlfriend, I wasn’t even thinking about her when I slept.

The dream goes like this. Me and my ex-gf together with her mom, met in a place full of flowers around us, red and yellow ones, somewhere like a garden. And then we talked and talked, had a real and good closure, ’cause we never had a real closure, like you know, talked in person or what not. You know, something that would make things which was left hanging, be cleared. After we talked and cried, Read more…
