I had been using Zonealarm’s free firewall software for quite some time now, and was notified today of a new version. I downloaded, upgraded, and reconnected to the internet once my computer restarted. There, to my surprise, was this flashy toolbar in My Firefox that I had not put there.

You may remember me mentioning a website I was building for someone to put his photography online. Finally, after some time we have pretty much everything worked out.
