Posted by Master of the Universe on Aug 1, 2008
Did you know there was software that can run behind the scenes of your computer and log all of the keystrokes you type? It is known as the keylogger and it quietly just makes a record of all the keys you type and then later an attacker invades your computer and grabs the information. The idea is that the attacker can get this information and then another process can figure out if any information in it is of value such as passwords and credit card numbers. This includes the keylogger with the ability to record an email you created that you thought was confidential but in reality it can be sold to a third party if it contains valuable information.

History Of Stamp Collecting
Posted by Master of the Universe on Jul 28, 2008
United States began issuing stamps at certain post offices in 1845 but it wasn’t until two years later before the first official stamp was issued. It wasn’t long after this that stamp collecting began. At first it was a hobby taken up by children. Adults never showed that much interest in it. However, when these children grew older they carried this passion for stamp collection into their adult years. In the late 1800’s people began really studying the postage stamps. They would publish results of their studies on these stamps after researching everything from production findings to possible printing flaws by certain plates. Establishments began to open up specifically geared towards the number of stamp collectors that were growing daily. This is when stamp collecting truly took off and is still going strong today.
