Vista Default Browser Issue

I was having issues getting Flock to be my default browser in Vista.  Flock, which is an awesome browser based on the Firefox browser, was set as my default browser within Vista.  However, when clicking on links and whatnot in emails, IMs and RSS feeds on Trillian, etc, the websites were opening in Internet Explorer (IE7).  This is not good.

I tried going to default programs, removing IE7 from being the default for everything, setting Flock as the default for everything, setting Flock as the default for .url and many more.

After scouring the depths of the internet for more than 30 minutes, I found a really simple solution.

Press the Windows+R key (or go to Start -> Run) and enter the following:

flock.exe -silent -setDefaultBrowser

or for Firefox users:

firefox.exe -silent -setDefaultBrowser

You may or may not have to specify the path to the executable.  You can find this by right-clicking the shortcut for the browser and going to properties.  Copy the Target field completely and paste that into the Run dialog.  For example:

“C:\Program Files (x86)\Flock\flock\flock.exe”  -silent -setDefaultBrowser

Notice how I kept the quotes and there’s a space between the last quote and -silent.

Hopefully this will help some of you out there having the same issue!

A Letter to Russian Spammers

Dear Russian Spammers,

Maybe you don't quite get it, but I don't speak Russian.  I cannot read Russian either. Even if I could, I wouldn't order your diet pills, sex toys, buildings, beer dispensers, and other weird products you try to sell me through email.  If you are going to send me spams, at least send me spams I can read and understand. Hell, they don't even have to make sense, like this one:

A dwarf, an albino, several dead bodies, the pope, and Chevy Chase are all involved. But now his memory has been systematically erased by a town determined to put an end to Freddy once and for all. Lost and stranded, they are set upon by a bizarre family of psychotics. Based on the debut novel by Chuck Palanhiuk. that is, except for the bloodthirsty zombies that have completely inhabited the island.

 See, at least that is somewhat funny and entertaining. So to all you Russian spammers out there, please please please stop sending me Russian spam. If you're going to flood my inbox with your crap, at least make it English.

Thank you.
