This is a blog I never thought I'd write - not because I think it's wrong or incorrect or silly. No, it's because I so wanted to believe that I would NEVER AGAIN see the day when one can rightly and postiively conclude that running Internet Explorer is UNSAFE in ANY configuration.

Although there are several online documentations of this behavior, most with suggested recommendations for a “fix”, the question still crops up every now and then. Since I had already written one such documentation for my team’s internal consumption, and since I find myself re-writing the same answers ever so frequently, I have decided to blog my documentation

For as long as I care to remember, the following behavior has ALWAYS been true in a Windows name resolution behavior:
Regardless of the configuration (P-node, B-node, H-node, whatever), the Hosts file is ALWAYS consulted first before a lookup request is sent to a DNS server.

Anywhoooo.... I've come to talk "Isolation", not to dis it. I just ranted so you don't get the wrong impression that I believe that "Isolation" is the next best invention since microwavable lunch :). I think anything that improves security is a good idea, but I take exception to the "this is gonna solve all our problems now" mentality that is now surrounding "User Isolation"

So, I subscribed my kids to the new Disney Toon Town online service. In case you are wondering what that is, here's a blurb:
"Toontown is the massively multiplayer Internet game that lets you live the life of a Toon. Create your own Toon character, furnish your estate, play games with friends, and explore amazing lands. The best part is it's always growing, always changing, and as wild as your imagination!"
OK, so it's an online community for Kids to play Kids-theme games. It's all about Kids.

We made a deal with our son - Lanre. Lanre is one of those indescribable kids every family prays to have. He is indescribable because I'm his dad, and there is no known adjective in the entire English dictionary can describe how much I think of him - well, I could try, but that would appear self-serving, grandiose and vain.
