Securita, I’m starting (finally)

Well, I’ve been delayed by one thing or another for quite some time. Anyway, I’m starting to gather my thoughts, and the various emails and conversations I’ve had with people over the project for quite some time. Just to review, Securita is a project to create a content filter for Mozilla.

Spyware Blaster Supports Mozilla

Spyware Blaster has been updated to version 3.0. This popular Internet Explorer tool blocks most Spyware ActiveX components and Cookies. New to version 3.0 is support for Mozilla. Since there’s no ActiveX support, it blocks some cookies. Perhaps in the future it will protect against malicous XPI’s.

Happy Birthday Website

It’s 1 year ago I turned this from a static never updated page into a rather rapidly updated blog style website!

Also in search of project management software.
Any insight/suggestions welcome.

I guess someone agrees with me

I mentioned this first a few days ago on the Mozilla Marketing mailing list, drawing a few +/- [...]

NVU 0.2 Out

It’s out and available for download.
As expected, awesome work on behalf of Daniel Glazman. I decided once again to take it for a spin. I normally hand code all my pages, but sometimes, especially when working quick on web apps, I like to just draft quick temporary HTML pages for working, and make [...]
