Yes, a general rule of thumb is not to open anything you don't recognise or are not expecting - especially if it has a file attachment.deepee wrote:Am I still at risk if I unknowingly open up one of these ?

Re: In praise of Big Camera at Market Village
Nice one, did you happen to notice if they had (or could order) Nikon telephoto lenses?

Re: Cheapest desktop computer in the world?
Agreed, you can get a decent spec netbook for around 10k these days - I'll be going for one when my trusty Acer bites the dust, they're far easier to cart around.

Re: Which free mail provider most recommendable in Thailand?
Agree, Thunderbird rocks but I have never used it with those free webmail accounts. A more reliable email system would be one on your own domain and hosting account (then you'll have the frustrations of Hotmail and Yahoo blocking stuff now and then!).

Re: Which free mail provider most recommendable in Thailand?
The problem is with Thai internet providers, they are often blacklisted by 'free email providers' resulting in email not getting through - additionally they block port 25 for sending mail as highlighted in this thread: http://www.huahinafterdark.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=2614 From my experi...

Re: The iPhone thread
Awesomeness ... Sharepod (http://www.getsharepod.com) does the job perfectly with no fuss, no updating or pissing about with playlists or iTunes - just add/remove songs direct from the hard disk to the device! (The only problem is that it still needs iTunes installed but that's not a problem if you ...

Re: Hua Hin Golf Gossip
There is a big sign near Pae Mai that says something about four courses and 6,000 baht (naturally it was all in Thai). Didn't have time to get a pic as some loon in a SUV was millimeters from my bumper, does anyone know what this promotion entails?

Re: Access problems
This has been well documented, it occurs when there are too many people accessing the database. HHAD needs to be transferred to a better web host to prevent this occurring - I'm sure there will be notices on the board when this will happen.
It usually clears after a couple of minutes.

That's correct, Lenovo took over IBM's PC business a few years ago - the old 'Stinkpad' was a solid piece of kit!

Re: Cheapest desktop computer in the world?
Have used them also for bits that other stores won't stock such as heavy duty power supplies and after-market CPU coolers. They're not the cheapest in town (apart from that desktop probably), but do offer decent after sales service and actually answer their emails! Only recommendation I'd make on th...

Re: Cheapest desktop computer in the world?
The spec on that machine is about 3 years old by today's standard so yes it is cheap and will be fine for web surfing, email and word processing. You could probably buy the bits and build your own one if you wanted to save even more baht!
