Toms View of the World

I’ve just modified this site to block access from all open-relay IP’s listed on dsbl.org and opm.blitzed.org (thanks to this thread on the b2evo forums)

This should help block referrer spam from unprotected PC’s running botnets without the owners permission. Should you get one of the warning pages displayed, please follow the instructions given.

Zombie PC’s are such a big problem that I have to take steps to protect my site and server.

Another week, another screw up.

Following all the fun of the last few weeks with NTL - including being disconnected twice, having threatening letters sent and all the rest - I checked my bill very carefully this month, and lo and behold, another glaring error.

Suddenly my account has acquired a second TV box (which I don’t have). Which they tried to charge me an extra 15 quid a month for. Until I called to correct yet another mistake and they removed the charge from my account.

Lets see what they manage to do next…
