Site Design Update
Today we launched version 2 of our website. Based on your feedback we made the changes that you feel are important.
The menu was changed for easier navigation. Some of the graphics were changed as were some of the CSS properties.
We hope you enjoy the new site even better. Please do not hesitate to send us your suggestions how we can improve
our service to you. Comments can be emailed to webmaster@laimbock.com.
Some background on this website: it runs on Red Hat Linux,
Apache, MySQL
and PHP, also known as LAMP, the leading web technology
in the world. Almost 70% of the world's websites run on Apache. Due to it's stability, features, security, flexibility
and last but not least Open Source nature, the free Apache webserver is the primary choice of any business that wants to
offer information on the World Wide Web.
This website not only runs exclusively on Open Source software. It was also made exclusively with Open Source software.
The HTML and PHP code of this website were written using the excellent
Bluefish and Screem
editors. Graphics were made using another excellent Open Source tool: Gimp.
If you would like to discuss these tools or the possibility of having your website designed by us then please give us
a call or send an email to sales@laimbock.com.

Anti-spam & anti-virus solutions
Worms will cost European ISPs and broadband providers an estimated €282 million in 2004. The amount of SPAM is rising to extreme
levels. Microsoft is offering big money rewards for information leading to creators of viruses. And this week new information surfaced
that simply surfing with Microsoft's Internet Explorer to a website driven by Microsoft's IIS may get your computer infected with
malicious code (a Trojan horse) and steal your sensitive data like credit card details and passwords. In an unprecedented move CERT
recommends that Explorer users consider other browsers that are not affected by the attack, such as Mozilla, Mozilla Firefox, Netscape
and Opera. Obviously an efficient and secure anti-spam & anti-virus strategy and operational solution are important requirements nowadays.
We can help you secure your network and control your communications with our anti-spam & anti-virus services. Our service is fully
transparent and can be easily integrated into your existing network (and easily removed should you wish so). Alternatively we can implement
our anti-spam & anti-virus solutions directly in your network. On both accounts we easily realize an anti-spam effectiveness of more than 90%
meaning that we "catch" at least 90% of the SPAM destined for your email addresses. Our anti-virus solution catches 99% of all viruses as
long as the virus signature is known. Our combined anti-spam & anti-virus services and solutions will allow you to once again be in control
of your corporate communications.
If you would like to discuss our anti-spam & anti-virus services and solutions then please give us a call or send an email
