WINDOWS PC owners are advised to trash any e-mail messages claiming to provide a fix for flaws in Service Packs 1 and 2.
The messages are actually from hackers trying to lure unsuspecting users into following the download link.
Instead of fixing the ostensible flaw, the program on the other side installs malware onto the user's computer.
Trend Micro, a security solutions provider, is sounding the alarm on this practice.
Spam e-mail messages claiming to provide important updates for Windows users are unfortunately nothing new, says Microsoft spokesman Thomas Baumgaertner.
He warns users to install only security updates delivered directly from Microsoft itself.
The company releases security updates online every other Tuesday at update.microsoft.com, and in the event of an emergency.
"We never send software by mail," Baumgaertner says.
That means that any e-mail claiming to have an update as an attachment is a fake, no matter how persuasive it seems.
"We would never do any more than send a link that leads to our site," he says.
The safest bet is to set the computer to install the updates automatically, the Microsoft spokesman notes.
To check if the function is already on the computer, open the Windows Update function in the control panel. - Star, 22 April 2009

Gambarimasu!
Life is not easy but nothing is impossible...
I believe that i'll do good in the future...
Really hope so, therefore, i'll try my best to be me,
to do good in every aspects.
Eventhough nobody is perfect, we'll still have to pursue for perfection.
No excuse for things that you don't like but accept it.
Talk less, do more as actions speak louder than words.
Thank you for being so well with me my friends...
And i want to thank you my parents for being so supportive and good to me as i'm still growing to be a better man... I'll not let you guys down...
Believe me! I shouldn't say "believe" as the word hides a LIE in it... beLIEve...
So, trust me...
I also want to thank God every single day for making me breath his creation, air... In other words, thanking for giving me life... Thank you for blessing me with strength and health as i need to use them to go on my path...
I hope no matter what happens, i'll never give up.

now
This morning i went to school to attend their assembly. Still the same actually, students are still kinda naughty (i miss the good old days)... Everything feels the same except the principal...
I don't know, i just feel kinda awkard when she comes in and shake hand with us cuz we were never under her before, so i'm not used to it... I rather wanna see Mr. Wong's big smile than Robinette's super "european-slanged" english...
I don't really feel Columban when i get in there... But anyway, to me, she's really a good principal. I can see she puts a lot of effort in it, she's really focusing on being a good principal... I can feel that St Co is going to improve.. Hmph~ Go! Go! ST.CO! i perhaps... hahax
They were distributing insentives to the "high achievers" for both PMR and SPM holders for 2008... So i'm glad that i'm one of them. For the first time ever, i was published in newspaper for my results (though its not really satisfying actually, sigh~), and for the first time ever, i got any insentives from school because of my result. I've done bad in both UPSR and PMR i supposed, but somehow i was lucky to get into one of them who achieved 8As and above. I was lucky because for our year, plenty of them didn't score well, my school only has one straight A1s! That's why, i don't feel very happy about it. If i were to be in SMK Chung Hua, i can't even see my face in the newspaper page! The gap between the academics of our school and Chung Hua is huge i supposed... They are clever people. Well, different people have different lives, though it seems like an excuse to escape that i wasn't hardworking enough.
Anyway, i just hope that i will strive and be more hardworking in the future. We cannot change history but we can prevent the repetition of dark history... I don't want myself to get anymore bad results, therefore from this very now onwards, i have to work hard...
It's easy to be said than done. blablabla... Nah~ just leave me alone....
Well, i've found that my blog is kinda boring... still got long way to go...
But i wanna put some nice pictures for you guys instead of just boring article that kept on repeating...
To be honest, i don't really wanna put in too much effort in blogging cuz it takes a lot of time if you wanna make it good. Generally, if you wanna do good, you'll have to concentrate, focus, put yourself into it, then you'll generate something good. You must have a blazing desire you find out and improve on your mistakes, the determination that kept you on the track... This is the values that one must have in order to succeed in life.
Some people might find that blogging is their life, so they put their time and energy on it, some might feel that music is their life, some might think art is their life, this and that and etc.. One must find their own path, a way that you can walk yourself into brightness so that one day you can sit on a chair, speaking about your passed to those who are curious about your succession...
All the best my friends. We must be a successful person in the future! Therefore, everything starts NOW!

Pictures that i meant...
Sorry for posting this late, cuz you know, when you stay at home, you'll feel like~ bored... give all sorts of excuse to keep you from doing it... Well, that's me for this few weeks... Just wanna enjoy myself... xD
Being lazy is a threat... One kind of virus which everyone can be affected easily. Every second anyone will be possessed by this fatal virus... kinda scary hahax~
Well, then.. just let me upload this photos, excuse me for not labelling these photos...
Perhaps, it's kinda obvious that these photos were taken on the path from Sibu to Miri.
Please be noted that these photos aren't arranged chronologically(from daytime to sunset..), please forgive me.
However, please do enjoy these photos. Maybe in your perspective, these photos might be normal to you guys, but they are something that i want to treasure. Some of you might think like, "Nah, these kinda of photo also think that they are pretty 'meh'~?"
My friend, little things you forsaken might be a deep memory to you, by after some time when you realised it, it might be too late. So why hesitate? Treasure every moment every second that you're living. Being simply alive is a blessing from God, so we have to be grateful!
I really like the sky and clouds... I like sunrise and sunset, but i don't really know about night time, because i know the stars are beautiful but i don't know about constellation, i wonder how do they judge them since we can just link everything... o.O I sound like a fool... i know~
