Default Expert Needed For Paid Interview...

Hey there,

I'm looking to interview a tropical fish expert for a 45-60 minute
session.

This person "must" be a qualified expert, preferrably with some decent
credentials behind him/her...
-ie. worked at pet store, degree in fishkeeping, many years
experience.. etc.

I have gathered up a list of about 40 questions or so that people have
actually asked, and
during the interview these questions will need to be answered.

I will supply you with all the questions that are going to be asked
beforehand, so
you can prepare etc...

Of course, this is a PAID interview. You will be paid $200 for you
time.

If you have the knowledge, this should be quick and easy.

Also, it is a low-key project, no need to sound professional... just
let your wisdom shine!

I look forward to hearing from any qualified persons.

If you want to email me, it's:

Thanks,
Cory Friedman

I think Nikki should volunteer - she could use the bucks after her
spending spree at the Odd fish place. And she could answer each
question with very long questions.

Sounds like some sort of bizarre scam to me.

Looking at the .edu--He might be 'phishing' info regarding who knows
what?..
OFF SUBJECT-With MS putting off Vista 'till next year (rewriting security
issues)...I'd hope people have kept up on what features to turn off in
WindowsXP to halt malware intrusions. Biggest four of all are Raw Sockets,
File sharing, Messenger and UPnP.(That includes modems/routers with
UPnP..turn them off)

If you have an extra computer you could try Linux. Or buy a "surplus"
computer cheap and try Linux there. You may like Linux, and it's more
secure than the average Windows setup for a lot of reasons, mainly
because it doesn't encourage/ require you to run as the system
administrator account.

I'm running SUSE Professional 9.x Linux on a "surplus" computer
purchased used 4 years ago, a 350 MHZ Pentium 2 with decent memory and
hard disk. On this computer I mainly use the Firebird browser and
Thunderbird mail and news tool. The Linux distribution included these
tools, Open Offfice and lots of other great software.

I suggest using an extra computer to try Linux, because there can be
problems trying to install Linux to run on the same computer as Windows.
My son experienced problems these problems on a new HP home computer
that had a special back-up partition. One operating system per computer
seems best. That said Linux practically installed itself on the
"surplus" computer.

Way Way OFF-Subject--
Ya know, I looked into Sun's Solaris..I grabbed some larges files off
their site and put them on disks for a later examinations. I'm not savy
on iso disks and what's entailed in preparing them..I burnt a couple of
starter disks that failed so I stopped wasting blanks.
For the most part, I don't believe the malicious crowd and the
conspirators have had time to disect its code long enough to discover
their weaknesses and security loopholes. But as long as we have
'script-kiddies' on computers all day with no supervision, its gonna take
place. PERIOD. The best thing that happened to computers and the internet
(in my humble opinion) was when Microsoft started placing bounties on
anyone connected with malware activities. 'Bout Damn Time.
I understand you would want about a 6 gig partition just for the os
alone. I'm too tied up at the moment to bother setting this system up.
But I do want to get around to learning linux. And I'm a huge fan of
FireFox and Thunderbird. Thanks for the holler.
Guess we'll get some feedback using FishNet's as a 'puter posting
(lol)..Later

UPnP? Damn. But it works so well with LimeWire (I build my own
spyware-free version from the Java source). Is my XP network going to
go kaput when I turn off UPnP and how do I fix it? Is there a better
newsgroup you could suggest for me to ask this? I'm such a tyro when it
comes to networking and security - I was thrilled when I finally got all
the XP computers in the house sharing files so I could back stuff up.
(One had allowanonymous=0 in the $#*&#$% registry!)

Now that's off topic for sure. So shall add to it by reminding people
that Microsoft releases their Windows updates on the second Tuesday of
every month and all you have to do is click on Windows Update in
Windows Explorer and let Microsoft do the driving for you. Tons of
security updates in the past year.
