IP PHONES

Skunks, I hereby introduce to you the latest communications trend for business. As compared to analogue or rather the traditional land line communication the IP Phone systems are working perfectly well for business with no much hustle. Currently in the market we have the Cisco IP phones and Yealink IP phones as the major competitors among st others. Yealink far outweighs Cisco in cost and performance, in that it doesn't have the annual licensing and the headsets are advanced giving a greater output to the users. Diamond Systems Limited leads the pack in installation of IP Phones and we have done it in companies, micro-finance institutions and other business premises. For detail on installation get to me at james.mwangi(a)dskenya.com or Call +254 788 185005. -- James Mutuma Mwangi Diamond Systems Limited P. O.

Wordpress Website Hacked: Strange PDF Files/Links
by Samuel Waithaka 09 Jul '15

09 Jul '15

Hello people, I could use some help with Wordpress. When I do a *site:mysite.com <http://mysite.com> keyword* search on Google, I'm getting hacked PDF links. Here's an example: *Search:* site:example.com prescription *Results:* example.com/add/tadalafil-prescription.pdf example.com/.../finasteride-online-prescription.pdf example.com/add/viagra-canada-prescription.pdf etc... and they are many; over 10 pages of results. However, all these links are broken. What I'm wondering is: 1. What's the likely Wordpress vulnerability that allowed this? 2. Could this be 'staged links' or the PDF files might actually have been there? -- Samuel Waithaka Cell: +254 720 317929 | +254 770 451280 http://twitter.com/samwaithaka

Way to go selling your website Andrew. I have come learn and,appreciate skunks like payment for advertising. But since we are here now, your site works well on mobile/IE (but I don't trust my Lumia) You just have to pimp it up a little: 1. Get a shopping cart plugin that adds options and variety such as size and color. 2. Replace the words billing address with delivery address, order id with order number 3. Advise the owner on a photo shoot. In Nairobi is a dime a dozen doe that quality or a dime a piece for better quality 4. Over 1000 retail websites in Kenya, maybe 10 sustain themselves, get a good marketer to help.

Tough new rules force all Internet users to list their gadgets
by Steve Muchai 02 Jul '15

02 Jul '15

Apologies for cross-posting but look at this: http://www.nation.co.ke/news/CA-WiFi-Internet-Rules-Cybercrime/-/1056/27711… What are they going to do, create one huge captive portal and redirect all WiFi traffic to it? Or force everyone running an access point to implement one? OK, so what if the bad guy's not using wifi? Let's say he's on 3G or LTE. Heck, he could even be on dialup to escape attention. This only sounds like another hot-air, not well thought out proclamation that well, serves to let us know someone reported to work on a particular day. I'm just going to grab the popcorn and watch this one. Hopefully it's going to be a very short one. (PS: does dialup still exist in +254? I think I'll visit my former $dayjob(s) where we used to provide this and see) Regards, Steve

OT -Using US electronics in Kenya
by Claude D'souza 26 Jun '15

26 Jun '15

Hi, I have a friend who just relocated to Kenya and he carried his household electronics with him. While stuff like her laptop, external drive and tablet are fine charging from the mains with only an adapter enabling the connection, she is very afraid for her microwave, blender and iron. Google speaks of getting a converter but also talks of horror stories of fried equipment whilst using them. Has anyone on list faced/conquered a similar situation? -- Claude A.

Also, transformers consume power (they are not 100% efficient!) so your electricity bill will be higher! (about 10%) Example: microwave, 1500W input, used 1 hour per day = 30x1500/1000 = 45kWh (units) of power per month. When used with a transformer, will be about 50kWh - ie 5 more units on your bill On 26/06/2015, Claude D'souza <claudedsouza1(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Steve, shukran sana....have offices near them so I'll go in person.

Hey, anyone among here who is associated with or manages the above mentioned subject I have a bone to pick with them. 1. All their events I have registered for, there is always a change of venue on the last minute. How incredible. 2. Handling of user privacy is in the least professional. You register for their event, next thing you know you are being spammed with numerous promotional and unwarranted emails. Whoever they are, they are bad at it. Meh. Regards.
