OT: finding a designer (bit of a rant)
I''ve written my app already. It outputs valid xhtml and I need a stylesheet to drop over the top. How hard is it for people to understand that? It''s a small project, they''d have to do the main design/layout, and then a little custom styling for some specific elements which don''t appear on every page. That''s the point of CSS right? write once, use

Caller ID Names
Are the phones exposed to the internet (even using NAT)? If so there is a good chance these calls are not coming through your PBX but are coming in direct from someone, usually scammers. Polycom has a config option to disable accepting calls from unknown devices. No idea if Cisco has something similar.

Spam in Bugzilla
Hi! There is surge of spam bug reports with support phone numbers of various companies. I remember couple of such reports made ~ 2-3 weeks ago. I think will be good idea to block IP-addresses or their range, if Bugzilla support this, since a-mails are different. Eugene.

Boonex Dolphin PHP script is SCAM! Beware!
Boonex is a scam. I had to purchase their "Advanced" membership first to be able to contact anyone to ask questions or get help. Then after purchasing a license for $39 I posted on their forums and was dog piled by their staff and premium members who have been around so long they forgot how to be polite. I never got the software working because most hosts have restrictions for the .EXE

OT: RE: Spam to the list, plus the Nigerian Scam
...r hitting us, telling him we are interested. That would make > these guys stop spamming this list. The problem with this is a lot of spammers use false return addresses or impersonate real addresses. In these two cases the solution you suggest doesn't work. Granted, the "419" scammers usually have a proper return address so that they can get a response. What you should do in these cases (if you want to do something) is simultaneously report them to the FBI and to their ISP/email provider (eg. Hotmail), at which time their account will be summarily terminated, and if you're r...

Caller ID Names
Hi, In my dialplan I have the following line. same => n,Set(CALLERID(name)=Support) I am expecting this to always set the caller id name to 'Support' - however, we are getting calls come in as "Anonymous" with the number as something like "unknown at unknown" We're using Cisco 7945 phones - I possibly wonder if they are displaying this rather than asterisk

African IP addresses list
Hi all, I am trying to block all IP addresses from Africa due to a high rate of fraudulent orders coming from them. I have some found some websites that can generate a range of IP addresses. However, you would have to enter the ranges by country. I can use those perhaps but that would mean I would have to get the ranges for each country one by one. Has anyone here a list of addresses from

For some reason, I have been unable to find the answer to this online or in books...

How to deal with PayPal frauds?
I charge my customers through PayPal, but recently faced a fraud which previously had only heard about. Somebody registered a few accounts, paid online with paypal (as my service is only prepaid) and started making expensive long distance calls. In fact the IP registering the accounts was from Florida, and IPs making calls were from Africa. After about 20 minutes the first payment was reversed.

Privacy rights of an old user of this list
Dear subscribers of r-help, I would like to know your opinion about a privacy problem that I recently had after publishing to this list. Not a long time ago, I requested to the administrators of this list that they removed 2 or 3 old posts from mine. These posts were associating my name with an old company for which I worked a few years ago when you would look up my real name at google. I'm
