[Year 12 IT Apps] Current Date calculation

Mon Apr 22 12:10:19 EST 2013

I attached a little Access DB:

Query View

Query Design View

The formula reads:

Age:
DateDiff("yyyy",[DOB],Now())+Int(Format(Now(),"mmdd")<Format([DOB],"mmdd"))

Good luck, Litsa

Good morning, 

Just looking for some help with Microsoft Access. I'm having trouble
calculating Age. I can't seem to find the correct expression to use the
systems current date to date away the date of Birth. 

Any help with this calculation would be great. 

Cheers

Hello all

Excellent episode of the Check Out (Ep 4 ABC Thurs 11 April 8pm) at iView
http://www.abc.net.au/iview/#/program/32372

about 17 minutes in.

Looking at how data mining is able to target us, how good it is getting, and
where the data comes from.

Regards

Hi Jackson.  

I'd guess the main technique would be phishing - the human is always the
quickest and easiest weak link in any technological security chain, and some
modern phishing can be VERY convincing (e.g. embedding attack code into a
legitimate webpage.)

Why Yahoo?  I'd say it was purely return on investment due to bulk targets.
Attack the sites with the maximum number of potential victims... the same
logic is used by virus/worm writers who attack Windows instead of Mac and
Linux (leading Mac users to crow smugly and erroneously about their
perceived invulnerability: it's just that the Mac userbase has not until
recently been big enough to justify good hacking time.)  

And maybe Yahoo's creaking old infrastructure is weak and more easily
breached?  Let's see what Marissa does about it.

Cheers

Mark

Oh wiser ones,

I'm not much of a security buff, so I'm interested: what are the various
methods spammers and crooks use to infiltrate our email addresses?

My guesses are brute-force / dictionary attacks (but I imagine yahoo et al.
block repeated guesses or use captcha), phishing, malware/Trojans (not sure
what these would do - capture keystrokes?).

And do http://www.seller-service.com/ (for example) know they are hosting
whatever resides at '/qlsnthcd/1tni5/gyqid3oo/x71m/1695jqh' or has it been
snuck on to their server (and again, how? SQL injection leading to access to
admin panel?)

Slightly off-topic, but loosely relevant to U4O2...and asking here means I
don't spend the rest of the afternoon Googling it :)

Aside: Why does it always seem to be Yahoo?

Thanks for anything that abates my curiousity,
