GMail Security Checklist
- nodata 16y agoIt's nice to see this list, but the sub-steps for each point should be integrated not external links. They also don't recommend not running as admin, which seems a glaring omission. I'd also like to plug Secunia PSI quickly (I don't work for them): Windows is so painful for updates: every piece of software has their own update mechanism. Some want to uninstall/reinstall. There is no one place to tell them all "go on, download your updates", then "go on, install them all then reboot once". PSI scans your computer then tells you what needs updating.
- sbierwagen 16y agoInteresting how odd it feels to use check boxes in an actual checklist, rather than in a form dialog.
- maw 16y agoWatch out for messages that ask for your username and/or password. Gmail will never ask for this information. While it's obvious what they're trying to say, this is oddly worded: of course it asks for your username and password when you log in.
- alanh 16y ago> Error saving checkmark: 404 (dismiss) Happens every time I check a checkmark. (Not that Google ever has a way to report bugs, except for tracking down and posting in a neglected Google Group)
- iuguy 16y agoIt's a little strange in how it's implemented, but I think this is a good off the shelf awareness campaign for anyone using google apps.
