Music in the Harrisburg area

August 9, 2007 · Leave a Comment

In the Harrisburg area, there are some great bands. Probably the most followed rock band is THE LUV GODS featuring Shea Quinn, who also made his mark with the Sharks as far back as the 80’s. They do mostly covers but the musicians in this band are excellent long time professionals. You can visit their rather humorous website at theluvgods.com

 Another favorite of mine is CRUISE CONTROL featuring the song stylings of Erin Cruise. This band does an eclectic mix but the further you go into the night the more pumping the rhythms get. They are a great dance band. You can see them at http://www.cruisecontrolband.com/home.htm 

Check these two bands for their schedules.

Also watch for the building of a brand new Museum in Central Pa that will archive and celebrate Pennsylvania Music and the Pa broadcast scheme from the early days to present. It is coming soon. You can see a preview of things to come at pmmbh.org

Spyware- hijacks drive me nuts!

August 2, 2007 · 3 Comments

I am having trouble with spyware/malware or anywhere that allows my computer to be accessed with the following web addresses. These are not legit websites nor do they have anything to do with good surfing. These are bad people here. If anyone knows how to get rid of the is hijack beyond the hijack this, spybot, adaware and mcafee total secure virus protection and firewall, I would definately appreciate it.

The sites that pop up against my will are:

searchportal.information.com

kolmic.com

 These are definately bad places to be sent too. Help if you can. I have read many blogs and articles about Google having a deal with them in their adwords dealings. I am not sure that is how they are getting onto my computer. I have also restricted those sites in internet security files and included them on my hosts file.

If I make progress, I will write that here.
