Migrate your Facebook friends to Google+
KB ID 0000483 Problem I like Google+ it’s clean and free of junk. There are no annoying applications, and unlike Facebook (which gets thousands of pieces of Malware a day posted to it), It’s gaining new users at an alarming rate.

KB ID 0000629 Problem I was called to a 2003 Server yesterday, that was riddled with malware, whatever was on there was generating a lot of network traffic, so the first thing I did was disconnect it from the network. That’s fine, but if I wanted to use my usual ‘weapon of choice’ Malwarebytes, how was I going to get the latest database installed? Solution WARNING: There is a note on the Malwarebytes website that...
