Not that this is correct reporting for IE, to report Russ's site as a phishing site, I am not sure why it did that. since first installing the beta, I have reported this to be a non phishing site, but it reported the site as a phishing site yet again today.
I hope IE7 team is listening and doing something about this when IE7 finally comes out.
And Russ, dont worry, I am reporting it again as a safe site (except for high does of ideas!)

Yahoo - Konfabulator

Talking with a friend of mine, we asked ourselved why did Yahoo buy Konfabulator? Moreover the premium service was dropped and everything is now offered for free. Whats in it for Yahoo...? Where would Yahoo use this product? Are there any integration plans for Konfabulator in existing Yahoo products? Maybe Yahoo messenger? now that would be interesting to see, how konfabulator widgets would integrate into YIM.

We have to wait and see on this one.

j2me exception...

i was writing a small j2me app, making httpconnections to a real IP. initial tests were running good when I started getting ioexceptions complaining that 'maximum number of connections have exceeded'. I realised i was not closing the httpconnection and the inputstreamreader. i altered my code to do that, cleaned the project and ran again after compiling. surprisingly i am still getting the same exception in j2me wireless toolkit.
what else do i have to do? i have cleaned everything, and am closing my httpconnections and inputstreamreaders. but now even on first attempt i get the exception...

any pointers anyone?

VS.NET start page


VS.NET start page
Originally uploaded by ravneetg.

I was working with VS.NET 2003 Pro edition and I set the envronment to start with the Start Page so that I can see some hosting options available from inside the environment.
On the next start up, I got this screen! I couldnt see anything except the XP blue screen with the close/min/max buttons on top right corner. Anyone seen this before?
