Profiles are not required, they're optional.

New [a href=http://www.deltabravo.net/dc/dcboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=108]"Moms Without Custody" message board[/a]

As part of SPARC's ongoing committment to serving all non-custodial parents, we're proud to announce our new [a href=http://www.deltabravo.net/dc/dcboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=108]Moms Without Custody[/a] message board message board, intended specifically to help address the needs of non-custodial mothers.

This message board will be moderated by Jennifer Isham, MA, NCC, LCPC, CS, who was the National Director of Mothers Without Custody for 10 years, working with noncustodial mothers from across the country.

"Going through a divorce and becoming a noncustodial mom led me to a career in counseling. I'm a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC), National Certified Counselor (NCC), and Intuitive coach. I'm also a Reiki Master, crystal and energy therapist. Over the past 20 years, I've worked with individuals, couples, and families in various stages of disenchantment, challenge, curiosity, awareness, fear, interest excitement, and desire for change. Areas of interest include personal development across the lifespan, life transitions, including midlife transition, divorce and custody, grief and loss and end-of-life preparation, legacy building, sexuality, intuition and spirituality. I am a passionate advocate for helping clients realize their unique and personal voices.

A writer, speaker and popular class and workshop leader, I try to bring my love for creativity and innovation into all that I do. I have an interactive, co-creative, supportive teaching and coaching/counseling style."

Welcome to our new message board, moderator, and visitors!

You're welcome! :)

Seriously folks, if you're readng this and haven't switched to FireFox, Mozilla, or Opera yet, you're deliberately putting yourself at an almost 100% risk. Internet Explorer is simply unsafe at any speed. When your data disappears or your identity and credit card information are stolen, please remember- you were warned.

Get FireFox now: http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/

[ZDNet says users have 'few options' other than alternative browsers or platforms.]

THIS IS NOT A JOKE.........Please pass this along to other folks. Again, this is NOT a joke.

Another, very serious hole in Internet Explorer has been found. ZDNet is reporting that "numerous" corporate web servers are infecting visitors' PCs.

"The combination of two unpatched IE security holes and hacked corporate websites is apparently distributing malware via several high-credibility sites."

ZDNet says users have 'few options' other than alternative browsers or platforms.

ALSO...There's apparently ANOTHER newly discovered exploit in IE that can compromise an IE user's machine through an image on a web page. So any server that allows posting of graphics (eBay, many discussion forums, etc) can be "infected".  The only solution is to stop using IE and use another, less exploitable browser like Firefox, Mozilla, Opera, etc. An article on the graphics exploit is here:

 http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1617046,00.asp


A possible fix from Microsoft (yeah, right):

http://www.microsoft.com/security/incident/download_ject.mspx

I strongly suggest that people download and use the FireFox browser. It's free and doesn't have these security holes in them. Plus it has a built-in pop-up blocker, spam filter, and tabbed browsing (very nice).  

If you've read this far and decide to keep using Internet Explorer, don't complain when you get infected. You were warned.

You can download FireFox here for free: http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/


We strongly reccomend Spybot and AdAware. These two free apps will kill most spyware dead.

For Spybot:
http://www.safer-networking.org/index.php?page=mirrors - VERY high traffic here, so it may be slow right now.

For AdAware:
http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/

If those sites aren't working, you can always try "spybot download" and "adaware download" in Google.

Then, on top of THOSE you need to run a virus scanner. Try AVG, it's free and works as well or better than McAffe:

Good Luck. If you're using Internet Explorer, you'll need it.
