Comcast & Computers....UGH
Start of boring computer-related rant.....
Had to spend and hour this morning dealing with a notification from Comcast that they've blocked port 25 because they believe some computer in our house has been infected with a bot that is sending out spam. Very possible since a few days ago our office computer went belly-up and my husband and son took it on themselves to fix it--for which I was grateful and impressed as well.
Everyone in this house uses web-based email except for me. I use Apple Mail. So I was the only one impacted when Comcast started blocking port 25. It meant that I couldn't send out any email unless I used web-based email. For some reason I've never grown to like web-based email.
I finally was able to reroute my outbound email through another port. But it was annoying to have to deal with this without my breakfast and morning coffee.
/end of boring computer-related rant
So now I need to browse the INTERNETZ for some SPN meta, glee, and/or fanfic.
