pirate-bay-logoUnless you live under a rock (on the moon), you should have heard about the court case against “The Pirate Bay” a torrent tracker site in Sweden, charges are piracy and aiding in committing piracy (well more or less). If you find the case interesting you can follow it here; http://blog.wired.com/27bstroke6/yo_ho_ho/index.html and here http://live.piratpartiet.se/ (Swedish) It is an interesting judicial dilemma, and I am quite entrigued in regard to what the outcome will be.

I was patching a newly installed Win 2003 server, and the first thing I was met by was that the Windows Update web site could not be opened unless it was added as a Trusted site, however when trying to add the site http://update.microsoft.comI was met by a dialog box stating that “”There was an unexpected error with your zone settings. Unable to add site.“.  On this server Internet Explorer Enhanced security had been uninstalled.

Solution;

  • Re-install “Internet Explorer Enhanced security” from control panel, add remove programs, Windows components. 
  • Add the zones you need.
  • If you like uninstall “Internet Explorer Enhanced security” again.

So if you are bored during lunchbreak direct your browser towards; http://www.quakelive.com/ and take Quake Live for a test spin. 

It’s based upon the popular Quake games from the past, but it looks like computers now are so powerfull that a simple browser is enough to execute a cool fps game.. neat..

It’s free which is my favorite price for fun..
