We were leaders among our peers with the McAfee Secure (was Scan Alert Hacker Safe) and now we again show how much you mean to us! We are proud to announce our Extended Validation SSL certificate. Originally planned for banking institutions, the EV SSL cert turns your internet browser bar green and shows our company name as well as the signing authority who performed the verification that we are an established Corporation. We are serious about taking care of you with great parts as well as taking every measure possible to protect your personal information.

As of 4pm Wednesday Oct 1st, we have changed our DNS records on file with our domain registrar. In the bad old days of the internet, this change would take days to traverse. Now, it will traverse in a matter of hours. It could still be a couple days as some servers will hold on to their DNS cache for too long. That’s ok: we have set up the transition such that orders submitted via either the new or old site update the new site’s database with your order information, so no one will be lost. The only notice of the change should be this message!

Thanks,
-Chris

We’ve been cranking through the website updates over the holiday break. We’re taking the 2nd off to focus on more code, but we’ll get shipping again on Thursday. Apologies if you have an unanswered e-mail; we’ll get back on it now that the holidays are past.

Thanks!

We’ve been working all hours getting the new management system to work. We’re starting to use proper tools for running the site, which will make updates and adding new products easier. Unfortunately, there is a nearly infinite amount of work going on in the background to build up the infrastructure of what you see in the presentation. So it looks like "nothing at all" is going on, when there is actually a flurry of code writing. :)

Part of the purpose of installing WP and using it was to make site updates easy for our staff. WP comes with TinyMCe installed as standard; however it kinda sucks as if you try to do ANYTHING outside of its parameters, it ruins your html code. So if you want to put in a <DIV ID="blah">, it would convert it to <P ID="blah">, which may or may not behave properly.

I looked around and found this plug-in: http://plugins.baptiste.us/plugins/xinha4wp/

- when in index and click to “show more type of topic, reset the session variables
- Add hacker safe logo to header
- migrate static pages to WP; move from sidebar to top menu as perm links
- set up redirects for old static pages

Apologies for the inconvenience: we allowed our “SSL Security Certificate” to lapse. It expired this week and it is now paid up again.

The certificate issued by the independent authority who validates our domain had just expired. While the encryption is the same, paying independent authorities for the certificate helps authenticate we are who we say we are. In other words, there never was a problem with security of information and everything is up to date and should be fine now without any warnings in your web browser.
