Daniele Raffo has produced a superb handbook for users of Enigmail. Rainydayz are pleased to announce that an online version is now available on our site.
Whilst all attempts at maintaining consistency have been made, in cases of inconsistency between the pdf and the online versions it is the pdf version that is the definitive version.

After a traumatic journey - which involved one of the cats escaping at a rest stop in Denmark, a blowout on the German autobahn and French customs officials being dissatisfied with the pet passports at Boulogne - we (myself, my wife and my daughter) finally arrived back in the UK just before midnight on 4th August.
We set off to continue our journey to Bristol, but we were very tired so decided to heed the "Don't Drive Tired" signs and take a break at the motorway services. We stopped at the MOTO services at Reading West.

A quick look at the the virus 'top twenty' shows that macro viruses don't yet have it all their own way. There are still perennial old favourites like Empire.Monkey, Parity Boot, and AntiEXE infecting customers' computer systems.

Boot sector viruses like these infect the boot sectors of floppy diskettes and typically the partition sector (MBR) of the user's hard disk. They are caught by booting (or attempting to boot) off an infected floppy disk. Ever left a floppy in your A: drive when you boot up? Ever seen the message 'Non system disk or disk error'? Then you could have been infected by a boot sector virus.

Albert Einstein was one of the greatest minds ever, but still had a funny side :

• “The secret of creativity is knowing how to hide your sources.”
• “Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. THAT'S relativity.”
• “If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?”
• “I don't know, I don't care, and it doesn't make any difference!”
