A new and very dodgy vulnerability has been found in IE that allows fraudsters to create web pages that pose as other sites; and it is increadibly simple to set up. A few weeks ago an ex-colleague asked some advice after receiving an email with a link to a spoofed version of the e-commerce section of their site, so as you can see this is could be pretty nasty. You can find out more information at Secunia.com.
Basically, be very careful using e-commerce links from emails and untrusted websites. Or else use FireFox.

A few weeks back I was in Edinburgh taking some photos for the British University Dry Slope Champs. Since leaving university I’ve kept in contact with a lot of my ski club buddies and this year Salford University are running BUSC, so I’m acting as the semi-official photographer. I will upload some of the best photos when I get time, but until then you can check them out here.

I’ve started putting photos of my trips into London onto the same page. I’ll add to this page from time to time.

Remember, remember the 5th — no, wait: the 3rd — of November.
Bonfire and fireworks at Wandsworth park.

So it’s the big Election Day tomorrow! Several people I have talked to recently have expressed the opinion that neither candidate is any better than the other, it appears that this view is also being reflected in quite a few newspapers across the world. However, the Independent ran a story today that summarises where the candidates stand on various issues, I think this shows that however similar Bush and Kerry may or may not be, what differences there are will make a profound impact on the US’s own soil and abroad.
