isn’t it time you felt safe?
When Google changed their home page to display a playable Pacman game for the day a while ago, a lot of people had a great time playing and remembering stuffing quarter after quarter into this game. Some people did not quite get what was going on though….
Check out this Tech support call to Google about the change to the Google home page:

This is more of a techinical post but I need to sing the praises of this wonderful free command line program from Microsoft: Robocopy.
I have used robocopy in many of the VBScripts that I have written over the years because of it’s flexiblity and well…. its robustness (Hence the name ROBOcopy)
This little program adds a a fine level of control in the way to copy files from one location to another. Some of the things you can do are:
- Mirror a folders contents to another location, deleting anything that does not belong.
- Copy files of a certian size.
- Copy files of a certain age.
- Copy files without attibutes like hidden, system or read-only.
- Copy files without the NTFS security.
- Create a log of the copy process.
The major thing that I love about this program is that it resume the copy of a large file if it is interrupted with the /z switch. This is really useful for admins that need copy files over an unstable VPN connection.
