Will you renew your NOD32

If you are online a lot, you do need to have a reliable and robust anti-virus and anti spyware program that protects your computer from all the malicious attacks. However, not all security software are created the same, some just slow down the computer so much, it’s a pain in the butt.

Our current security software has expired and we haven’t not decided to renew or to get a new software. I don’t like the fact that the current software is so intrusive and slow down the computer considerably. Anyone has experience using NOD32? Will you proceed with NOD32 renewals without hesitant when it expires?

Moving blog content to a new host

If you were here visiting my blog yesterday and you saw the whole blog disappeared, that’s because I was migrating the content of the whole blog to a new host. It takes a few hours for it to propagate. The transfer did go on smoothly, though I forgot to backup the widgets, now have to put them back in.

Will continue to migrate the other blogs to a different host in the coming week. It’s not that difficult to migrate a wordpress blog to a new host. One service provider actually charge $99.90 for the task, what a rip off! Anyone wants to change host? I can do the migration for $29.90. :-)

Hosting goes where the offer is better

The hosting for this blog and several other blogs is up for renewal next month. Have been looking to take advantage of better introductory offer at other companies. My current host is alright except for this annoying high loading issues that have not been tackled for the past two months.

Have no idea why the “overloading” issues won’t go away even though I have done everything the support staffs suggested. I believe the blogs do not really have very high traffic to justify over loading the server. But, it’s part of the small prints that when your blog(s) used up 25% of the resources, you will get that dragged “high loading” default page.
