Instead of a painstakingly handcrafted blog, which took way too much time, it will be over on TypePad, where I can concentrate on the writing and not on the RSS. There won't be a BugBlog Plus (at least for awhile), but there will still be a Bug of the Day. Any longer-form writing or reviews (if I get around to them) will still be here. http://bugblog.typepad.com/ Thu, 03 Jul 2008 22:42:00 GMT http://www.bjkresearch.com/bugblog/bb0711.cfm#1110 As if AOL doesn't have enough problems, another one of their ActiveX controls has a security problem.

Because there are still bugs to stomp out. http://www.bjkresearch.com/bugblog/bb0711.cfm#1104 Sun, 04 Nov 2007 23:30:00 GMT http://www.bjkresearch.com/bugblog/index.cfm For those of you wondering, I've had to put the BugBlog on hiatus. In addition to running my business, I've taken on a day job. That means activities that barely make any money, such as the BugBlog, have had to fall by the wayside. I hope to reorganize my schedule so that I can at least start up the BugBlog again soon -- because the bugs aren't going away. http://wwq.bjkresearch.com/bugblog/index.cfm Thu, 03 Oct 2007 23:30:00 GMT http://www.bjkresearch.com/bugblog/bb0708.cfm#0808 A number of bugs in Mac OS X 10.3.9 and 10.4 CoreAudio were patched in the Apple Security Update 2007-007.
