Simply, Security
Last week I outlined some issues that have cropped up in recent times with
the ever increasing “cleverness” of Internet Security packages and the
commensurate increases in the their complexity and their likelihood of
malfunction (not in the sense of program failure – they seem to work pretty well
from that point of view; rather, in the sense of them not doing exactly what you
want them to, or them stopping you from doing what you want to.) I also
told you that this week I would outline a simple security strategy that is less
intrusive yet is strong enough for most of our purposes, so here it is.

told you that this week I would outline a simple security strategy that is less

As a quick word of caution let me mention that this strategy is intended
for personal computers used by individuals for their own purposes and is not
intended as a strategy for server systems, office networks, corporate systems or
any such systems, where a more comprehensive strategy is called for.

any such systems, where a more comprehensive strategy is called for.
Start at the edge, with your Internet connection. If you have a
broadband connection such as cable or DSL or the like, use a firewall/router
between your computer and the service provider’s adapter. Available in
computer and office supply stores here in the US for under $50.00 (so I imagine
they will be more or less similarly priced where you are.) These devices
use something called Network Address Translation that prevents others on the net
from seeing the actual address of your computer. This simple thing is
enough to keep out most (not all!) hackers. Those with the skills it takes
to get past this obstruction usually have bigger fish to fry than your humble
PC! If you’re not sure how to make this device work for you, talk to your
local computer or office supply store assistant – they deal with them every
day.

If you use dial-up, leave it connected only while you are actually using
your PC, then, order broadband!

Next, get your computer up to date on security patches. Use Windows
Update, upgrade it to Microsoft Update, and run the “Express Update” until there
are no more updates for you to apply. Now turn on Automatic Updates and
have the machine update itself overnight (see the Control Panel / Security
Center.) If you have dial-up, you’ll have to run Microsoft Update manually
every couple of days until your Broadband arrives.)

Next, install a simple, effective and unobtrusive anti-spyware program from
a major vendor, such as (alphabetically) Computer Associates, McAfee, Norton
(Symantec), Panda or Trend. There are other good ones too, but these are
the biggest and most famous. Get the anti-virus only, not the whole
security bundle, which is what we’re trying to avoid. Personally, I’m
using CA’s Etrust.

You’re done!
Except, of course, for your backups. Not having RECENT backups is
asking for, no, begging for, demanding, absolutely insisting upon, climbing onto
the rooftop and shouting vile challenges at fate for, disaster. On the
other hand, if you have them, you probably won’t need them. It’s Murphy’s
Law.

Q. How do I attach the “onClick” event handler to plain text? What I am
trying to do is load the Javascript function contained in the code in a new
window using a text link to pop the referenced URL in a specifically-sized
window with most of the bells and whistles disabled. While the code I have below
works “okay”, it doesn’t work the way I want it to. I think I need to use
the ‘onClick’ handler to accomplish this, but the only references to that
handler I can seem to find on HTMLGoodies uses form buttons, or regular HTML
links. I want to use plain text links. I tried this:
<.a
href=”” onClick=”javascript:popup(“URL”)”>Text here<./a>
..but all I
got was my local desktop in the window when I tested it. Here is the code
I am using to call my popup window on page load:

A. Part of your problem is that you left the “href” blank. This
causes problems with the link. There are some different ways that you can
accomplish what you want. The first one is to use the “#” pound sign to
void the link so that only the onClick event works. For example: <.a
href=”#” onClick=”popup(‘somepage.html’)”>Text here<./a>
(You also
do not need to specify “javascript” in the onClick event)
You can also call
the function by placing the function call in the “href” like this.
<.a
href=”javascript:popup(‘somepage.html’)”>Text here<./a>
This does
away with the onClick event. I also noticed that you surounded the URL
with double quotes and at the same time surounded the function call with double
quotes. When you are doing a function call like your example it should be
single quotes within double quotes or double quotes within single quotes.

Q. I have developed a website for a
consulting business. What steps do you need to take to make sure that
copyrights are not infringed by using photos and graphics from other
sites?
A. Website items are like any other property. If you use any images or any
content for that matter from another website, you should get permission from the
owner first, before you use them for your site.

Q. Could you please tell me how to link one page to a specific point on
another page? Also, how do I link the top of one page to the bottom of the same
page?
A. If you want to link to a spot on a particular page you can
use the NAME ANCHOR. For instance if you had a long page and wanted to give the
user an easy way to get back to the top after reading the article you would
place this in the HTML near the top after the <.BODY> tag:
<.a
name=”top”>
At the end of the article you would place this code:
<.a
href=”#top”>TOP<./a>
That creates a link to the top of the page. If
you want a link to a certain area on another page it is done in a similar way.
On the page you want to link to you place the NAME ANCHOR in the spot on the
page you want to jump to:
<.a href=”jump”>Jump Here<./a>
On
the page you are coming from, the link would look like this:
<.a
href=”#jump”>Click here to Jump<./a>

Q. I’ve just started experimenting
with frames for a redesign to my website (hand coded and I’m self taught with
HTML!) I want to use an image behind links for the side frame on my
page. I just don’t know how to code a background image so that it will
remain “fixed” (I think that’s the right word) instead of tiling itself across
the page.

A. I think you’re looking for this CSS property:
background {
url(image.gif) no-repeat; }
You could also add “fixed” as another property,
which will hold the background in place (no scrolling). The “no-repeat” will add
the image just one time.

data. I am trying to figure out how to make that page open with the cursor
already located in box #1, instead of having to hit Tab 2 or 3 times. The
form is written in HTML, but I’m assuming that I will need to use Javascript to
accomplish this.

already located in box #1, instead of having to hit Tab 2 or 3 times. The

A. You could use the onLoad event in the body tag to place focus on the
first
box this way:
<.body
onLoad=”document.form_name.field_name.focus()”>
“form_name” would be the
name you gave your form in the form tag and “field_name” would be the name you
gave the first box in your “<,input>” tag.
If your form and field do
not have a name associated with them then you can use this format:
document.forms[0].elements[0].focus()
The above refers to the first form and
the first element in that form.

1903 Henry Ford Hired John and Horace Dodge
John F. and Horace E. Dodge started a manufacturing business in 1897 to
build bicycles. In 1901 they started to manufacture automobile parts, and
on this day in 1903 Henry Ford hired them to provide the chassis and running
gear for his cars. They went on to produce car bodies for both Ford and
Ransom Olds and in 1914 founded the Dodge Brothers Motor Car Company. By
1919 they were among the richest men in America, but didn’t get to enjoy their
fortunes for long, as they both died from influenza in 1920. After being
held for a while by a bank, their company was sold to the Chrysler Corporation
in 1928.
