  You'll be a  LOOSER  as soon as you click anywhere on or in that email. It's a Phishing Scam. Report it as Spam. This same type of email spam has been arriving in your Gmail folder for quite some time. Google still hasn't figured out how to block it. Be careful and never click on something that promises to deliver anything for FREE.  There is no free lunch. Stay safe.

  It was nice to see a good turnout even though it's the day after Christmas. This is  our last show for 2022  and we covered the following, Weekly Security News Roundup, a review of the predictions made over the past two years and how accurate we were. We all made predictions for the upcoming year. The music outro was Barry Manilow's "It's just another New Year's Eve". We ended the show with an abbreviated Q&A session.

  Last night I did a presentation for the members of this  Chicago Club .  I last  remotely visited this club back in October  for Cyber Security Awareness Month. Last nights presentation was all about the many tools that are part of  Ccleaner . Most of those tools never get used by those that use  Ccleaner  only to clean junk from their systems. We also covered quite a few other topics via videos from my  YouTube channel . I spent a very enjoyable two plus hours doing the presentation and answering many questions along the way.
