Patch Tuesday again
If you’re one of our dedicated server customers, you’ve got the option of a paid support package, the choices being Anchor Secure and Anchor Complete. Whatever you choose (or if you decide you don’t need one), we just hope it’s the right one for you.
One of the services we provide with a support package is [...]
A fix for the browser crashing blues
Ever been constructing a verbose and complex reply to an email on a webmail site, only to have the browser crash when you were about to hit send?

The user fixes the error on the server, and (since staring at the location bar isn’t a whole lot of fun) [...]

It seems our satire has not been received as such by all and so we have had to remove this post.
I wanna pony!
Well, actually, it’s the sort of pony you probably don’t want, but it’s something of a “pour encourager les autres” sort of thing: the 2008 pwnie awards.
