If you don’t know what “PHISHING” is … click on this link for more information, and to read the rest of the article in the box…

Phishing
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

This phishing attempt, disguised as an official email from a bank, attempts to trick the bank’s members into giving away their account information by “confirming” it at the phisher’s linked website.In computing, phishing is a form of social engineering, characterised by attempts to fraudulently acquire sensitive information, such as passwords and credit card details, by masquerading as a trustworthy person or business in an apparently official electronic communication, such as an email or an instant message. The term phishing arises from the use of increasingly sophisticated lures to “fish” for users’ financial information and passwords.

I’m having video card problems

… or, at least I think I am …

I wish I knew what was wrong with my computer. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t work. Sometimes, when you turn off the computer and turn it back on it is at the worst.

If anybody has any familiarity with this - drop me a line .. hart (at) 1800HART (dot) com

Amazon Affiliation and Linking

Something interesting happened this weekend, and I thought I would document it.

As you know, I have the blog site 1-800-HART’s Picks where I have joined companies as an affiliate, then I surf their sites for products that even HART would buy (if I had the money) .. then I post them in the blog. In Wordpress, there is a plugin called wp-amazon and even another one out there, that makes this quite easy to do.

You see - in my options area, I insert my Amazon affiliate-ID and then there is a button here in my area where I can search for any amazon product and post the link. For example, looking for an XBOX 360 game..

Is Extra Warranty Worth It?

This afternoon our water heater tank exploded. There was approximately 2 inches of water on the floor in the south section of my basement and a clear river flowing from the north part of my basement where the water heater tank was. Fortunately, a lot of my important documents and files and electronic items were deliberately placed off of the floor, for cases like this. I had built a step-floor where my permanent files are, that were the size of a 2″x4″ in height .. so I was okay.

It was messy … it took a while to clean up … but, no real damage .. except for the water heater that is. A few things got wet - I’ll survive.

Record Of Employment (R.O.E.) and the H.R.S.D.C.

Employment Insurance (EI)

Employment Insurance (EI) provides temporary financial assistance for unemployed Canadians while they look for work or upgrade their skills. Canadians who are sick, pregnant or caring for a newborn or adopted child, as well as those who must care for a family member who is seriously ill with a significant risk of death, may also be assisted by Employment Insurance.

Being an accountant and working in public practice since 1985 and on my own since 2003, I have had the opportunity to prepare many “Record of Employment” (R.O.E.) forms for my clients over the years. Not every employee needs a R.O.E., if he or she is planning to work at another job. The ones needing the R.O.E. are the ones that are in a hurry to register with the Canadian Government H.R.S.D.C. branch to collect their unemployment insurance benefits.
