It never ceases to amaze me what some of the SPAM that I get suggests. I had one this morning just come from 'Ukrainian Folk Instruments Sales' wanting someone to handle transfers of money for a 5% commission. They class the job as a 'Financial Manager', but looking at the job description it looks like it is little more than a money laundering system. It is much harder to trace money if different ammounts come in and go out. Particularly when there is an un-related middle-man in the middle. Doing a tiny bit of research suggests that this activity is being used by phishers who send those dodgy emails from banks to process the money.
Last night I was trying to use my printer and it was not working. Typing its IP address into the browser did not work. Pinging the printer did not work. Nether did a restart. Looking at the back I realised that the light next to the ethernet port was not on, so I went downstars to look at the switch. There was one plug not fully inserted into the switch. As soon as it was pushed in everything started working. Simple cable issue.
