Posted on 28 June 2006 by a1291762

I have a wireless AP/router that I connect to (WRT54G v2 running DD-WRT v23 SP1). Recently my MacBook Pro has been disconnecting from the wireless network. If I sleep/wake or even just select the entry in the airport menu it … Continue reading →

Supernatural disappointed me

Posted on 28 June 2006 by a1291762

Hacking my Bank (revisited)

Posted on 5 June 2006 by a1291762

I found a way to bypass the onscreen keyboard at my online bank. However both the AJAX and PHP versions I came up with had problems. The AJAX one doesn’t work from a web server. The PHP one works nicely … Continue reading →

Something is stealing my CPU

Posted on 1 June 2006 by a1291762
