Bailey!

So I switched blog engines, and I never bothered transferring a bunch of posts that were outdated, or were just links to my Picasa photo site.  Which is just Google Plus now.

It took a little investigating, but I found the cause. Windows Server 2008 introduced a new feature, called "Global Query Block list", which prevents some arbitrary machine from registering the DNS name of WPAD. This is a good security feature, as it prevents someone from just joining your network, and setting himsel
