It snowed last night. I thought it’s April already.

I had a new hair cut today. I look more like my mii than ever.

Broccoli, milk, miso, hondashi, butter.
Other than the fact that it reminds me of Chicken’s poop, this is actually very delicious.

Identity theft update:
A few neighbors have their cheques, credit cards, statements and phone bills opened or stolen. Two neighbors’ information were used to apply for credit cards. A neighbor found opened mail on the ground that were sent to the dimsum restaurant and hair salon downstairs.

Firefox3 Annoynce: SafeBrowsing

Filed under: Tech

Posted 7 months, 1 week ago at 1:28 am. Comments

Firefox just blocked me from visiting Cool OSX Apps, a perfectly legit site.

Cool OSX Apps Blocked

The two buttons on the screen, neither of them allowed me to bypass the check and go to the site. LAME1.

Apparently Firefox 3 has a built-in safe-browsing feature, which queries the StopBadWare.org DB, and it is turned on by default. LAME2. For some ridiculous reason, Cool OSX Apps is blacklisted. LAME3.

I could not find the option to turn it off in the settings dialog. LAME4. To be fair, I didn’t look hard enough. Who needs a dialog, when there is “about:config”?

Type in “about:config” in the address bar. Search for safebrowsing, set the two bolded entries (see screenshot) to false.

While you are at it, turn off safebrowsing for google toolbar as well.

Rumor has it. One of my neighbors is an identity thief. Let the investigation begin.
