Cumulus Support

I use in all my Windows desktops no-ip.com access and MSWindows Remote Desktop or thighVNC with no compliments to report. :) In the course of my business, I've used them all. PCanywhere (worked well over modems in the the 90's :) ), VNC, RDP, Teamviewer and Logmein. I reckon Teamviewer is the best ...

That's awesome. Could you please post some details on how you accomplished this?

Personally I don't like it.

Hello from an ex Napier dweller

I coughed up $25AUD which IIRC converted to around 15 pounds :s Anymore and my Missues would've had a heart attack lol. Anyhow, I'll be trying to leave another small deposit in the future.
Great weather site you have there btw, very well done.

I would just get hold of an old windows box, they a dime a dozen (or free even). Once it's all set up you can hide

it somewhere and just use remote desktop to "remote" into it.

Me too, though once I did win a chook raffle at a pub. Then I got drunk and forgot to collect it lol.

This. Totally free and offers pretty good protection. IMHO and from my day job experience anything else is a waste of money and resources.

It's just that I'm lazy and normally don't know what day of the week it is

Is it possible to get Cumulus to automatically add a timestamp to the user entered conditions field?
Thanks Bob of Canberra.

uncle_bob

I recommend removing all third party antivirus and firewall programs and just use Microsoft Security Essentials and the built in Windows firewall. And try not to run any services that aren't required.

My only problem with it is the font's a bit small for my old eyes so I have to put glasses on to read it lol.

uncle_bob

I never do. But I was curious about Cumulus LA, so I tracked it down (it's in the Help file BTW) and read it. Should I now go back and change my vote?

uncle_bob

They look very similar. Anyone know for sure?
Cheers UB

(wasn't sure if I should've put this post in the La Crosse or Fine Offset sub forum so I stuck it here, please move if incorrect)

That sounds more than reasonable (a steal even). The beauty of going down this path is you can change ISP's till the cows come home and your website is safe.

Here's the before trend graph...

And here's the after..

I think the results are pretty good, with a lot tighter grouping and a lot less "scatters".
