Subj: Thought unsubscribe GS, cause got number. Went
to monster.com, found worst internet security problem.
GS missed my post that I posted 1 minute after I
re-subscribe.
This takes a CCIE security (or at least candidate) to
know how serious this is.
Have you visited monster.com recently? After I log
out,
I got this
http://www.geocities.com/johngibson1541/ms.png
I clicked OK. Now I am scared. I don't remember if
I sent any login to yahoo.com.
If you click OK, you need to pull your PC's power cord
immediately.
If you click OK, then you go on to mail.yahoo.com ,
you
get spoofed data from akamai.net (you can see your
left
bottom corner "transfering data from ...akamai.net).
I guess they will send your login password to
akamai.net when you try to login yahoo mail.
I am guessing 50% of recent monster.com visitors
clicked
OK.
I will be busy changing all my yahoo mail passwords
in the next 2 hours until 3 am.
My email with GS is a de-militarized email. Nothing
serious you find in that account. Geocities is still
using plain ftp!
Maybe it is time to shut all my emails except the
de-militarized.
----------------------------------------------------------
Year 1998, designing satellite wave guide (direct TV
direct PC) and signal mixers. Maxwell light wave
equations.
Year 2000, in graduate school (CS), registered CCNA
exam, but no show. (Busy with Finite State Automata).
Year 2001, became full time software engineer, GUI
TCL scripts, C melloc, C++ private/public/memory leak.
Networking simulator product (SNMP).
Year 2003, took twice CCNA, passed second time. Took
CCNP exams. No time for class. Failed many times.
Using those failed tries as my 1 hour class for the
week. Waiting for green card of my employer sponser.
Worldcom scandal. All software engineers except me
were laid off during resession. Thanks CCNA.
Year 2004, got CCNP, immediately took CCIE written
(a nurse female friend said I want to get the best),
realized I need deep BGP and QOS which CCIP gives.
No time for CCIP MPLS class, took 6 attempts in 6
weeks to pass CCIP MPLS. Cisco tighten retake policy
because of my aggressive-retaking-but-no-class-for-me
strategy? Got CCIP, CCDA, CCDP all in this year.
Year 2005, passed CCSP's SECUR and CCIE written. Still
fighting Tcl GUI and C++ public/private/memory leak.
Immediately took CCIE lab exam. Fail, fail (twice).
Year 2006, fail, bought few routers, bought IE's
workbook and COD, finished all 4 of IE's mock lab.
Failed again. Bought 2 switches.
Year 2007, failed again, bought another 3 switches.
Finished all 8 of NMC's mock labs. Passed.
So, BSEE, MSCS, CCIE, CCIP, CCDP.
