Facts of Life...


Read this Fact of life............Which life is better, the former or the latter............


Dad used to give us a monthly Rs. 20/- per month, in that we were not only able to eat stomachs fill, but we were able to save too!!!

Now we earn a sum of 20K, we have no idea where it goes, let alone saving it!!

Which was better, the former or the latter???
***********************************************************************

6 subjects per year, 6 different teachers!

One project since we joined and just one manager!!

Which was better, the former or the latter???
***********************************************************************

We used to make notes; we used to study for ranks!!

Now we scan thru our mails; we struggle for our ratings!!!

Which was better, the former or the latter???
***********************************************************************

We have still not forgotten the people in the next section!!!

Now we don't even know who sits in the next cubicle!!!

Which was better, the former or the latter???
***********************************************************************

After getting back from a tiring play, we used to do our home work!!

Now who knows/cares about home; all we do is just work!!!

Which was better, the former or the latter???
***********************************************************************

We knew our history and economics!!

Now let alone reading books, we don't even catch up with the daily news!!!

Which was better, the former or the latter???
***********************************************************************

We had an aim in life; behind our backs we had our teachers!!

Now we have no idea about the future nor do we find any one who would tell us anything!!!

Now just ask yourself, which was better, the former or the latter???

How to Protect your E-Mail from spam


Imagine yourself preparing an important presentation. Suddenly, the Outlook Express installed on your computer pops up a message saying 'Buy Viagra for cheap' or 'Trying to sell you a business that pays you thousands of $$ every week'. Most Internet users are familiar with such unwanted emails in their Inbox.

Lately, however, you must have noticed an increase in this kind of 'junk mail' to your your email address, or on your favourite newsgroup. These junk mails, also known as spam, are flooding the Internet with many copies of the same message, in an attempt to force it on people who would otherwise choose not to receive it.

Most spam is commercial advertising, often for dubious products like get-rich-quick schemes. Spam costs the sender very little -- most of the cost is paid for by the recipient or the carriers, rather than by the sender. Email spam targets individual users with direct mail messages. Email spam lists are often created by scanning Usenet postings, stealing Internet mailing lists, or searching the Web for addresses.

Here are some tips and tricks to help you control the amount of spam you receive.

How to eliminate spam

1) Try not to display your email address in public:

This includes newsgroup postings, chat rooms, Websites and online services membership directories. You may want to opt out of member directories for your online services -- spammers use them to harvest addresses. Also, disguise your email address when you post it to a newsgroup, chat room, bulletin board, or other public web pages. For example, use manojvb AT gmail DOT com. This way, a person can interpret your address, but the automated programmes spammers use often cannot.

2) Check the privacy policy when you submit your address to a Website:

See if it allows the company to sell your address. You may want to opt out of this provision, if possible, or not submit your address at all to Websites that won't protect it. Also, look for all the check boxes that have been checked by default while you fill and submit any form.

3) Use two email addresses:

Try to use two email addresses -- one for personal messages and one for newsgroups and chat rooms. You also might consider using a disposable email address service -- this can be a separate email address that forwards mails to your permanent account. If one of the disposable addresses begins to receive spam, you can shut it off without affecting your permanent address.

4) Use a unique email address:

Your choice of email addresses may affect the amount of spam you receive. Spammers use 'dictionary attacks' to sort through possible name combinations at large ISPs or email services, hoping to find a valid address. Thus, a common name such as manoj may get more spam than a more unique name like m11an2007oj. Of course, there is a downside -- it's more difficult to remember an unusual email address.

5) Use an email filter:

Check your email account to see if it provides a tool to filter out potential spam or a way to channel spam into a bulk email folder. You might want to consider these options when you're choosing your Internet Service Provider. Do your part by keeping your junk email filter up-to-date.

6) Never hit the 'REMOVE' button:

Most spam mail you receive contains a line that says 'Reply with subject line as UNSUBSCRIBE to remove your email address from our mailing list'. When, in fact, you reply to unsubscribe, what happens is that you simply verify you have a valid email address. As a result, you get even more spam instead of getting removed from the list.

Some spam relies on generators that try variations of email addresses at certain domains. If you click a link within an email message or reply to a certain address, you are only confirming your email address is valid. Unwanted messages that offer an 'unsubscribe' option are particularly tempting, but this is often just a method for collecting valid addresses that are then sent other spam.

Take, for example, the :
URL: http://grz67. com/track/ rd/3964715/ 5751/23643/ 1934. This URL contains a tracking ID will be mapped to your email ID in the site's database. The spammers would be sending you email with this URL behind the link. Whenever the user accesses this URL, the spammer can be sure the email address associated with this tracking ID is a valid one.

Many people have documented the fact that not only do 'Remove' lists not work, they verify to the spammer that your e-mail address is good. The spammer then puts it on a premium CD and sell it to the next spammer for even more money.

7) Be responsible and considerate as a user:

We ourselves promote spam in some way or the other. Some people consider email forwards a type of spam, so be selective with the messages you redistribute. Don't forward every message to everyone in your address book. If someone asks that you not forward messages to him or her, respect their request.

8) Keep your antivirus programs updated:

Spam is a cat-and-mouse game, with spammers working relentlessly to outwit the filters. There have been some viruses reported, which help in spamming by sending a pre-set mail to all your Outlook contacts using your email address. When the recipients open their mail, their system also gets infected and mails are sent from their system to all the contacts in their address books. So, by keeping your antivirus programme updated, you can detect these viruses, stop their entry into your computer and prevent spamming from your mailbox.

Some Unbelievable facts about 9/11


THIS IS NO JOKE, YOU SHOULD READ ALL THE WAY THROUGH.


1) New York City has 11 letters

2) Afghanistan has 11 letters.

3) Ramsin Yuseb (The terrorist who threatened to destroy the Twin Towers in 1993) has 11 letters.

4) George W Bush has 11 letters.

5) The two twin towers make an "11"


This could be a mere coincidence, but this gets more interesting:


1) New York is the 11th state.

2) The first plane crashing against the Twin Towers was flight number 11.

3) Flight 11 was carrying 92 passengers. 9 + 2 = 11

4) Flight 77 which also hit Twin Towers, was carrying 65 passengers. 6+5 = 11

5) The tragedy was on September 11, or 9/11 as it is now known. 9 + 1+ 1 = 11

6) The date is equal to the US emergency services telephone number 911. 9 + 1 + 1 = 11.


Read on and make up your own mind:


1) The total number of victims inside all the hi-jacked planes was 254. >2 + 5 + 4 = 11.

2) September 11 is day number 254 of the calendar year. Again 2 + 5 + 4 = 11.

3) The Madrid bombing took place on 3/11/2004. 3 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 4 = 11.

4) The tragedy of Madrid happened 911 days after the Twin Towers incident.


Still unconvinced about all of this..?! Try this and see how you feel afterwards, it made my hair stand on end:


Open Microsoft Word and do the following ( TRY THIS FOR REAL )


1. Type in capitals Q33 NY. This is the flight number of the first plane to hit one of the Twin Towers.

2. Highlight the Q33 NY

3. Change the font size to 48.

4. Change the actual font to the WINGDINGS 1


scary huh ??
