I am a big fan of Fringe, but was surprised to see Agent Charlie Francis back from the dead when I was catching up on the last episode. So I did a Google search for "charlie francis back from the dead" to see what was up.

Not only was he back from the dead, but he has since spawned several zombies! The first 12 pages of that Google search were for infected with his zomblings in the form of Windows mal-ware. You know those sites that prompt you for a virus-scan and then say, "Wowzers you have a lot of viri and worms and Trojans, oh my; download our anti-virus software for freeeeeeee!" bogus kind of sites.

That's a lot of search spam. It doesn't look like Bing or Yahoo were infected by this. I wouldn't have thought so, but I thought I would check anyway.

I just thought I would let the internet be aware. Thankfully Firefox is quick to protect the public at large from these kind of attacks.

Gigolo is a samba client for Xfce. From their site:

About the name Gigolo

You may ask why it is called Gigolo, a strange name for an application. But actually it fits pretty well for what it does:
It mounts what it is told to.
That's all.

I was messing around with the Xfce Desktop Environment, trying to rid my netbook of some of GNOME's bloat.I found it had a very nice samba client. It's name is Gigolo.

How Programming Language Fanboys See Each Other

I saw this and thought it was pretty funny, but sadly I do not have the patience or creativity to add other languages to the spread like Python, C# or C++.

Today in Operating Systems, we learned about paging. Did you know that you can have a page table in a page table? Neither did I.
