  • Repair work – Edit

    I’ve finally found out what went wrong with transfering the podcast over.  A redirect on the page told iTunes to point to an invalid feed.  In order to fix this I’ve have to resubmit the podcast to iTunes and ask that the old link be removed.  How irritating.  But I’ve learned lessons from this that…

  • iTunes Woes

    I honestly don’t know what is going on with iTunes.  It worked yesterday and now it has decided not to work and is claiming my feed is invalid when nothing has changed.  All I can do is apologise.  The episodes are still there and I hope that everything will be sorted out in the next…

  • Episode 8 – Chrome

    Mark McKinnon was so kind as to do an interview for us today.  Mark is the writer/author (what the correct terminology there?) of the software Drive Prophet.  He talks to us about his software and what he hopes it will add to forensic investigations.  He was a great person to have on the show, excited…

  • iTunes Issues

    So, now that I’ve changed everything I’ve noticed that iTunes points to the wrong podcast feed still.  I’ve submitted the changes to iTunes but I don’t know when these changes will filter through.  In the mean while its best to listen on here or download the mp3. ***UPDATE*** The issue with iTunes has now been…

  • Small change

    You may or may not have noticed but the Forensic 4cast website has changed address ever so slightly.  I have done this so that I can add new features to the site that I couldn’t readily do with the old address. Also, look at for a new episode later/tomorrow with guest Mark McKinnon, author of…

  • Downtime

    You may have noticed that we experienced a little downtime today.  The reason for this is because I’d like to do some things to the website that require a change to the web address, things such as a forum.  Sorry if this caused any inconvenience. I have also created new email accounts, in future if…

  • Episode 7 – Pants

    Hooray! (I hear you cry).  Yes you are quite correct to cheer my friend as the latest episode is now available. This week Simon and Lee discuss the Private Investigator law (again?), the RIAA, Blackhat, and Lloyds TSB password policies. I know you’ll be riveted throughout the episode. (I’ve fixed the player now, apparently there…

  • Still Here

    Contrary to popular demand opinion neither Simon or I are dead.  We tried recording something last week but Skype was being EXTREMELY unreliable.  We’ve since joined up with voxalot and set up SIP accounts so the process should be a lot smoother now. I’m glad to tell you that we’ll be doing a new episode…

  • Sick

    Simon was allowed a week off, now I have to concede and say sorry to everyone.  Last week our kids were sick and, inevitably it was passed on to myself. Oh joy! I spent a night camped out in the bathroom, scared to move more than a few feet away, if at all. But don’t…

  • Episode 6 – Virtual Vigilanteeism

    I am please to announce that episode 6 is available for your listening pleasure. In this episode we discuss virtual vigilanteeism.  Is it a blessing or a curse when these vigilantes get involved? We would really like to hear about your first hand experiences of the laws requiring forensic investigators to be registered private investigators,…
