Dec 5	comment	ESET warns: Skype attempting to communicate with unknown remote computer I need to look more deeply; but I understand that a user can elect to be a supernode by changing the config of their skype client. see chris.pirillo.com/are-you-a-skype-supernode
Dec 5	comment	ESET warns: Skype attempting to communicate with unknown remote computer I saw the nmap output. MySQL? SIP? some strange things there but in principle you could run a supernode with other services running.
Dec 5	comment	ESET warns: Skype attempting to communicate with unknown remote computer interested in the results of this. Although, given the choice of conspiracy or cockup, it's probably a poor quality supernode.
Dec 5	comment	ESET warns: Skype attempting to communicate with unknown remote computer VMWare ESXi runs on a cut down Linux kernel - it definitely does not run "on Windows" -- although, the open ports and so on looks very suspicious to me.

Dec 4	comment	Storing account credentials for spouse/loved one? I'm not up to speed with Norwegian law - but your scenario probably needs joint Wills in both territories (if you own substantial assets in both countries). Whilst writing this I was thinking about "How do I leave digital assets (like Kindle books) to my son?" -> that's quite a problem because I'm not sure if digital assets can be reclaimed by a third party - even if they are left to someone in their estate. I imagine that test cases will come soon where large amounts of digital assets are being reclaimed off SaaS providers...
