VMware vSphere Client running slow?

Even with my fairly powerful PC (Quad Core i7, 8GB RAM) vSphere can still be a bit sluggish.

I found disabling Aero helped.

Right click VMware vSphere shortcut > Properties > Compatibility Tab > Settings >
Put a tick in the "Disable desktop composition" tickbox.

Now Hotmail also supports full time always on HTTPS/TLS

Log into Hotmail>Options>More Options>Account details (password, aliases, time zone)

Under the "Other Options" Section click on "Connect with HTTPS"

Then click on the radio button "Use HTTPS automatically

Click Save



Using HTTPS will help keep your account secure from hackers-especially if you commonly use public computers or unsecure wireless connections.

Know when your Facebook session is being hijacked by Firesheep with Blacksheep.

Download Blacksheep


BlackSheep(firefox add on) drops a ‘fake’ session ID onto the wire and then monitors traffic to see if it gets hijacked then notifies the user.
This is an OK work around for the moment until facebook and the rest get their act together and enables TLS/SSL on ALL its traffic.
