June 14, 2001 Favorite TSS Moment

The Screen Savers are conducting a poll to Vote for Your Favorite Screen Savers Moment. Currently, the introduction of Jessica and Megan is in the lead, but I'm rooting for Patrick smashing stuff. That was the theme of last year's winning segment, Patrick Maims the Billy Bass Fish (click the video highlight link), and it's always fun when Patrick channels Gallagher.

Yay! TSS finally featured the results of Steve Gibson's investigations into the recent DDoS attacks (see my post for 6/8/2001 below) against his site. It was good to hear a follow-up and find out that the attacks have pretty much ended. His ShieldsUp program is a wonderful free service to Internet users, and it appears that he has been able to resume that feature of his site at grc.com.

In the segment where Yoshi upgrades the producer's wife's computer, take a close look at his hands. The scrapes across his knuckles are the mark of someone who wrangles PC hardware. I recognized them from my own experience wrestling with PC parts.
