You Gotta Send It Back

You Gotta Send It Back 04/22/2004 09:08 AM

You Send It, You Recycle It: I'm quite pleased with this development. We compla ined about the idea of disposable DVDs last year. Again, let me say that I'm not a left-wing tree hugger or anything, but there's enough disposable stuff in the world already (and calling it "one-time use" doesn't change anything).

The California Assembly will debate a bill in coming weeks that would force companies to provide a return envelope for each unsolicited CD they send out, possibly crimping the marketing plans of companies like America Online.

Berkeley Assemblywoman Loni Hancock introduced the so-called Return to Sender bill this week. It would mandate that a postage-paid envelope be included with unsolicited CDs in mass mailings of 200 or more discs. Disposable DVDs such as Disney's 48-hour EZ-D must also include a return envelope for customers' use.

Actually, if you're a paranoid Windows user like me, then you're checking Windows Update every day. Because of how aggressively I patch, and because virtually all the headline grabbers have taken advantage of unpatched systems, most of the news wasn't scaring me to death--until this week's reports of two keystroke loggers; one that neither Internet Explorer nor the best anti-virus defenses were well-prepared for, and another for which a client-side patch existed but was alarming in the way it targeted bank accounts.

I apologize if you've tried to access the site in the past 12 hours or so or have tried to email me in that time, my host seems to be having problems (too often, unfortunately). I've been thinking about getting a dedicated server through RackShack but I just can't afford 100-130 dollars a month. Anyone out there in blogspace want to go halves?

I've received a lot of feedback on the new design, and I've been able to clear up bugs here and there on various browsers. Keep the reports coming, or post comments below.

Eighty-two-point-four percent of people believe them, whether they're accurate statistics or not.

TurboTax Blues

TurboTax Blues 04/16/2004 02:16 AM

With only a few hours til the tax filing deadline, I was having problem with TurboTax.  It reported no errors so I proceeded to file it electronically, but it kept saying it couldn't do it because there were errors.  So I went back and found that some field in California tax return was not supposed to be a negative number and it should be greater than the number above.  Well, the number above came from the federal side and was negative.

After an hour of going back and forth which TurboTax really sucks at (why can't it be more like a browser and let me spawn new windows and navigate back and forth?), I finally started ripping out forms and wiping out deductions until the damn thing filed without complaining.  I am paying a bit more tax than I would have otherwise, but at least it's done and over with until next year.

Firefox Blues

Firefox Blues 07/15/2004 07:10 AM

For some reason, Firefox address bar stopped working today.  It simply stopped updating and also won't accept new URLs entered into it.  Only changes I made to the system today were latest set of Microsoft security patches and Sage, a Firefox extension which Tim Bray recently mentioned.

I uninstalled Sage but the problem persisted.  So I proceeded to uninstall all the extensions and restarted.  Still dead.  So I uninstalled Firefox 0.9.1 completely and went to the Mozilla website.  Woo.  Firefox 0.9.2 was out.  So I installed it only to find the problem still there.  Hmm.  Could it be that those five Microsoft security patches I installed today somehow disabled Firefox address bar?  I doubt it because Mozilla 1.6's address bar still works.  Has Sage got too clever and messed up some Firefox settings and failed to restore it during uninstall?

I don't have the answers yet because I don't have time to dick around just so I can point a finger at Microsoft.  I am sure there will be an uproar in no time if it is true so I am going to wait and listen.  Meanwhile, I am back on IE.

Update:

After posting, I realized that Mozilla application data was still in the Documents and Settings directory.  Wiping that out fixed the address bar.  So it looks like the problem was Sage.  That's the trouble with being extension happy.
