"Reported Attack Site" displayed by Firefox

As one ‘developer’ of a site that has been labelled by Firefox’s latest rigid updated version of 3, I think this is unfair as this is commonly of no fault of the site developer/webhost.

We have all been great fans of Firefox for many years now, but I’m very disappointed with their automatic display of this warning. It just scares people off (useful) websites
unnecessarily that have potentially become infected through no fault of their own.

Other browsers don’t show this degree of ’sensitivity’ (nor, insensitivity!!!) that this latest FF 3 3 update does; it simply is too much caution!

I don't know, but personally I think leave the security issues with the host, leave out the inconvenience from the users. We urge FF to disable this damaging and reckless feature.

To manually disable this:

Go to Tools > Options > uncheck "Tell me if the site I'm visiting is a suspected attack site"

Suspected attack site??? Come on! I rest my case...

Sitemap online collaboration tool

Came across a useful online site map creator called WriteMaps Site Tool (http://writemaps.com) , which provides shared online collaboration among users. Cool! Simple, straightforward...

XAMPP or WAMP (WampServer) ?

I've been using XAMPP ever since and have followed it's development from one release to the next. Have experienced first-hand the bugs, errors, and fixes of 'em all. And presently, the latest version seems to work fine for me.

Am trying out WAMPServer and hopefully will find anything more useful or more convenient than XAMPP or other one-packaged installers.

Browsing through forums, can't find anything concrete on the pros and cons of one over the other. User preferences seem to be thing here :D

Background check (WAMP vs XAMPP) forum links:

• http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/showthread.php?t=119408
• http://www.dynamicdrive.com/forums/showthread.php?t=35923

Anyway, will post if anything comes up!

Keep AMP'ing everyone!

Chat module for Drupal

Tried chat rooms and chat box modules, but somehow they don't provide the instant messenger look and feel desired. Functions a bit more like forums.

Further search and the ajax-based phpfreechat module for drupal takes the trophy.
