Industry News
Bill Gates the King of Junk E-Mail
Associated Press
Bill Gates might not use AOL, but he's
definitely got mail.
The Microsoft Corp. chairman receives millions of Internet messages
a day, said Steve Ballmer, the company's chief executive. "Bill
literally receives 4 million pieces of e-mail per day, most of
it spam," Ballmer said Thursday.
Spam or junk e-mails are unsolicited messages, generally
advertising goods or services and usually sent to many e-mail
accounts simultaneously.
Ballmer said Microsoft has special technology that just
filters spam intended for Gates. In addition, several Microsoft
employees are dedicated to ensuring that nothing unwanted gets
into his inbox.
"Literally there's a whole department almost that takes care
of it," he said.

Tech Tips & Tricks
Did you purchase a Miva license
from Jumpline?
If so, we now have the latest version of Miva Merchant available
to upgrade your account. Send in a support request from within your
customer manager, https://my.jumpline.com,
and our technicians can upgrade your account to Miva Merchant
4.23 to add more security and more features, free of charge.
Due to security holes in some common PHP scripts, we have
disabled 'allow_url_fopen' for all of our accounts. This
makes your account safer by preventing someone from running malicious
code on your website. If you have any problems with your scripts
that you believe may relate to this change, send in a support request
from your customer manager, https://my.jumpline.com,
and our technicians can help you get your PHP programs running while
maintaining security.
