Do you have a particular method? Or is it just a random killing frenzy?

I killed quite a few earlier in the year, I found a quick spray with some multi-surface cleaner was very effective, infact I would go as far as to say 100% effective and as an added bonus the house smelt lovely and fresh too lol.:D

Killing frenzy.. I just aim and clap them :p and seem to be getting good at it.. lol :rolleyes:

Sprays here ain't that good. The smell from the hair and clothes later are awful..I mean the smell..I avoid it, its like smoke from a cigar/mosquito coil doesn't go away until its washed. Just hate it :sick: lol

Edit.. Just killed another one :p
Edit... and another one.. it got near my eye :eek:

Today, (well straight after work) I set about the task of building a cot bed in kit form for our soon to be born 2nd girl.

It was a breeze, thankfully the sides were pre-assembled too, so it had a total of 5 parts held together by a total of 16 bolts, I was done in around 40 mins.

Well work is quiet at the moment. One project has practically finished, starting to get the signing off sorted. My next project is a research report for a company in Liverpool who deal in systems for early signs of dementia and they went some research doing on a couple of new projects they want to start themselves, and an iOS development app for an arts centre in Kendal hasn't started, as I'm waiting on them to give me access to their main website, so I study how their API works on there e-commerce side of their site, but that was 7 weeks ago.

It's annoying, some clients just don't co-operate. It's like "Hi, do you want £3,000 worth of free software developing?", and they're just like "Err...no, I'm alright, thanks".

Mittens are rather rare to see in shops, gloves are common. I have small problem wearing gloves so I find Mittens are easier for me.

Anyway, these 4 were seen in Battle to-day.

Already killed 9 mosquitoes today. Winter, Damn it's fun :devil: lol
Funny, I usually have problems with mosquitoes only in the warmer months. :huh: But anyway, thanks for the rep! :D


Got my old HTC Hero running on LiGux with Zeam launcher. It's actually running like a competent phone now, with the ability to install far more apps than the stock Hero ever could. It's almost good enough that I don't want to upgrade to the Evo. ;)

Today my computer was in a great trouble. I dont know exactly what caused it, till now, but none of my devices work, and it went to a reboot loop.

Startup repair failed.
Rebuilding MBR using PW failed.
Image restore failed, too.
WDO scan found nothing.

I reseat the entire system. Then formatted the Disc0, and reinstalled windows. Whenever it prepared my desktop, I did not install drivers or activated it, but tried to restore the image, again. After restart, I got it ....

Still I dont know what caused the trouble, but I am happy that I have not lost many a things other than a few updates only :)

Just think of the money :)

Recently, McAfee hasn't done too badly actually :) A test was recently conducted on how well AVs and other online security tools (anti keylogging etc.) coped with MITB (Man In The Browser) attacks, the results can be viewed here:

http://www.mrg-effitas.com/wp-conte...anking-and-Endpoint-Security-Report-20122.pdf

MSE got straight fails :( Okay, McAfee's score wasn't great, but it was better than MSE. I'm seriously considering switching to Kaspersky now. The test was done by BBC and MRG Effitas, in this investigation:

not sure you would keep your job long, your job would be to sell units ,many new pc's will have 8 on them so you would be expected to lie about the greatness.
and as it is currys/pc world this is a job qualification, the ability to lie well.
imagine working for them and telling customers the goods are half price elsewhere or online.
its been about 10 years since i last shopped with them.
