Early last year I wrote about one of the easiest ways to provide internet filtering for your home network. Read: http://cibertek.net/blog/2009/02/22/keep-your-family-safe-with-opendns/. At the time, OpenDNS had only one mode and only one set of options. Recently, they’ve expanded their features list under a “Deluxe Plan” and are now charging a small fee to use it.

by The Cibertek on 06. Apr, 2010 in Networking, News, Security, Software
Cisco Home Products, a.k.a Linksys, launches a new home wireless product line this month called “Valet”. My first impression is it looks like a great product for home users who either don’t have a wireless network already or for those who want to upgrade what they have quickly and simply.

Google Chrome 4.0 is finally here
by The Cibertek on 29. Jan, 2010 in News, Tools
After what seems to be a very long wait, Google Chrome 4.0 was released this week. For the first time since Firefox came along, Chrome is a legitimate third alternative to Internet Explorer. The main reason is because Chrome can now be extended with third-party applets called “extensions” just like Firefox “add-ons”.

Microsoft releases patch to fix the “Google Hack” flaw

If you are one of the lucky people who are still using IE6, Microsoft has released an “out-of-band security update for the Internet Explorer vulnerability used in the recent Chinese attacks on Google.” So download this patch as soon as possible. Better yet, it might be time to upgrade to IE8 or download and use Firefox instead.
