AND - Here is a copy of the original article on this blog:

IMPORTANT-N.VIRUS-Try Windows Live OneCare for 3 months-GRATUIT !

English:

If you go to the link below, you can install free of charge, for 3 months, the defence you may need to combat the threat in the next article on the Blog-"Chez mr le marquis" - Since the threat is actual, but MAY explode on the 1st April 09, you can be protected! If you wish to keep the defence after 3 months? That's up to you!

NOTE: It is a long procedure, but not as long as re-installing your PC (if that will be possible)!
You can change the language, if required, on the page.
Français:
Je viens de faire une analyse complète et gratuite de mon PC avec le scanner de sécurité Windows Live OneCare. Ce site permet de rechercher les virus et les logiciels espions puis de les supprimer, d'améliorer les performances du PC et de supprimer tous les éléments qui encombrent inutilement son disque dur. Pour l'essayer, allez sur loe lien en bas.
La possibilité d'un attaque est très élevé a ce moment, mais vous serez défende pendant les 3 mois de gratuite. Apres..? C'est a vous de décider!
La procédure est longue, mais moins courte que de rechercher et ré-installer les données sur votre PC actuellement!
Vous pouvez changer la langue, si vous voulez, sur la page!

One of London's 'Commons' Carrying on with my little series about London, a City but also very much a collection of villages which I enjoyed living in, working in, getting married in, and finally "'leavin'", I just wanted to touch on those places which London has so many of......'The Commons' - rather akin to Public Parks, but immense in size and in every 'village'.... A bit of their history is here: http://www.graftingardeners.co.uk/history-londons-commons/ and some are used by the well known  London Buses. Some are criss-crossed by main roads, some have public golf courses, some have tennis courts, both in concrete and in grass.... The special thing about these 'Commons' is their size....They are immense. In pure ground value they must be worth billions of billions of pounds sterling, and yet there is rarely any attack made on their status. It is rather astounding! Just for the record, there is another, ...
