The world’s Top 10 Spammers!
Dr. Smile 21 August, 2008
(2) Comment The world’s top 10 spamming countries account for 55 per cent of the total global spam volume, says Secure Computing, a public company that provides enterprise security solution, in its Internet Threats Report.
Spam is the unwanted e-mail messages that you find in your mail box. It is primarily electronic junk mail sent to your e-mail account or even your cellphone.
Spammers are continuing to use pop culture and current events (US elections, Olympics, etc) to entice end users into responding or clicking on links whose sole purpose is to download malware.
The Secure Research report says that there was a 45 per cent increase in the average number of porn sites found daily since January 2008.
50 pre cent of all Web sites’ content is now in non-English languages, and this too is adding to the growing spam volume.

Hurry… its time for GDC registration
Dr. Smile 9 April, 2008
(1) Comment The legal deadline (30 July 2008) for GDC registration is fast approaching – so dental technicians must act now to ensure they are registered in time.
For dental technicians who have not yet registered, a ‘Registration Surgery’ will be available at the Dental Technology Show (9-10 May).
The GDC will be on hand at the GDC exhibition stand (E20 & E22) to check application forms, as well as offer advice and answer questions on the registration process.
Completed forms and accompanying documents can be submitted by colleagues for those who can’t make it themselves.
Dental nurses and technicians who would like to submit applications at the ‘Registration Surgery’ need to bring certified copies of all the relevant supporting documents, including proof of identity, as original documents will not be accepted on the day.
