A trojan what?
We made a life-sized trojan also, but it got us kicked out of school.

Re:So, when...
Does the 'War on Trojanists', begin?

Re:Turn the tables
It is and always has been about money. Do you actually think government, states, hospitals, or any company cares if one is gay or straight? It boils down to money. It was believed that homosexual people were more likely to catch/pass on certain diseases. That is when the rules were set. Prove that this is not true and those rules may change. One has to prove that the lifestyle of people who are gay carries no higher risk then those that are straight. Prove that for all and this issue will go away.
Religion is a separate issue. There is supposed to be a separation of 'church' and state in the US. And church can be what ever your religion is. One can still get married and not have to go to a 'church' to make it happen.
Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit.
It’s all about religion. And control.
Religion forbids homosexuality because it robs them of fresh kids to indoctrinate and to swamp the other tribes with.
It’s about control, too: religion forbids homosexuality because gay men can have all the sex they want without having to contend with headaches nor birth control, and thus make compromises so the wife consents to be fucked. Someone who is not accustomed to make compromises because his sex partner is always willing will be harder to control.
“Certain diseases gay people have” is only a very recent phenomenon for which technology exists to address.
The same comment goes for masturbation: one can jerk-off any time he wants for instant sexual gratification. There is no need for someone else, and thus even less compromise than with homosexual intercourse.
Religion has had thousands of years to rot our brains; any society has a hard time to get rid of it.

Sorry to respond to my own post but
It just struck me that I wish the company that makes my favorite brand of condoms would change its name.

Don't forget the nematodes
The blogosphere has hit the mainstream, according to a new survey, which reveals that 80% of Americans know what a blog is, 50% regularly visit blogs, and 8% publish their own blog. The survey also reveals that more women than men are bloggers, with 20% of American women who have visited blogs having their own versus 14% of men.
And 2% of worms!
And I thought Trojans were supposed to prevent infections. Hah.

Free Trial
You can get a free trial here.
Oh, wait... -
Re:Oh, the naming process went terribly awry...
Yeah, nothing says protected more than trojan.
Hey, this would help all the shy buyers, buy a suit and get a years free supply of "ballons". -
the name makes sense...
...since it's already associated with protection...
-
different kinds
Why do I get the impression that if they had included the 'other' kind of Trojan, the outrage would have been much greater?
-
Seems obvious to me.
Of course it would delete your porn! Trojan wants you to go out and have real sex.

Re:Perfect Outsourcing Opportunity...
One must be careful nowadays. Often, these devices, were carriers of viruses - due to the boss-employee relationship, and the fact the term "sexual-harrassment" was far less known.
Due to spiraling cost inflation even high level executives now must share the few remaining devices.
If they need to share these devices, couldn't some engineer come up with some sort of intermediate security system? -
Interesting sort of weather.
Besides, isn't there similar technology for Dad himself?
Makes me doubt that'll happen. I think. -
Oh, the possibilities!
Imagine the targeted links they'll put on calendar entries for your mother's birthday, your quarterly performance review and a blind date...
I can't wait. -
Re:Naming & Mythology
Huh huh. Heh heh. You said Trojan . They like, go on wieners. Heh heh.

This is a Good Thing
First Trojan for WinCE? Good! Now I won't have all of these little Pocket PCs running around!

Re:Applies to more than MS
> It has DNA data that gets accessed upon insertion.
Dude, it hurts when you pee, too!? Man, if only I had used one of these...
Thats the LAST time I ever access someone else's DNA. Yep, just me and my computer from now on. -
I guess it all depends on the virus
Most chemists/pharmacies and even supermarkets these days will sell you protection from particularly nasty viruses. Cost is about a-dollar-a-pop, so to speak
;-)
Of course, at the rate these computer viruses are spreading, a-dollar-a-pop (ie per person per exposure) rapidly becomes a significant amount of cash.
Obviously a whole-lotta-poppin-goin-on. -
Innocent Until Proven Clueful
[...] their attorneys successfully argued that trojan programs found on their computers were to blame.
In all three cases, no one has suggested that the verdicts were anything other than correct.
I think it's going to be pretty easy to tell, within the law, whether the computer owner knew that a hack attack or illegal download was occurring on his/her computer. Most of the time, the court's answer will be "no".
If a remote-control Trojan is on the PC, then the prosecution would have to prove that:
* The computer's owner is 133t enough to hack into a remote system, but clueless enough to allow a Trojan free rein on his own.
* Or, the computer's owner in fact installed the Trojan program on his PC for the explicit purpose of throwing off investigators.
While the defense attorney needs only argue that his client is just an average Joe(anne), and wouldn't know what a Trojan was if he/she bought one at the drugstore. The defense attorney should be facing a receptive audience. Remember, in the US at least, he'll be facing a jury of 12 average citizens who know as little about how computers work as I do about brain surgery.
Or perhaps less. At least I know which box my brain is in. -
And we all know what happened to the Trojans
I almost spewed up my iced mocha latté when I read the opening paragraph of the article:
In ancient Troy stood the Palladium, a statue of the goddess Athena. Legend has it that the safety of the city depended on that icon's preservation.
Even someone with the most rudimentary liberal arts education knows what happened to Troy and the Trojans, right? No? Well, here are the relevant parts of Homer's Iliad and Vergil's Aeneid boiled down into one paragraph:
The Greeks went to war against the Trojans because one of their kings' wife, Helen, skipped town to hop in the sack with a Trojan prince. The war went on for about ten years or so with no clear victory in sight for either side. Finally, however, the Greek soldier Odysseus (a.k.a. Ulysses) hatched a clever plan--the Greeks would build a huge, wheeled wooden horse and offer it to the Trojans as a sign of surrender. Unbeknownst to the Trojans, however, Odysseus and a crack team of Greek soldiers would be holed up in the horse's body. Lo and behold, the Trojans accepted the horse and opened the gates to let it in. That night, Odysseus and his posse got down and started kicking some serious Trojan ass from inside the city. In fact, the shrine of Pallas Athena (the Palladium in question) was where the Trojan king Priam and his remaining family members took refuge. But it didn't matter; the Greeks came in and slaughtered them.
Three thousand-odd years later, the term "Trojan horse" has taken on a special meaning in tech jargon. Perhaps whichever marketing dweeb at Microsoft came up with the name "Palladium" for a security product should have paid more attention in that world literature class.
(As a side note, with this story in mind, using the brand name "Trojan" for security tool of a different sort is also ironic.)

Re:Learn from this.....
but using this stuff is like having sex with 4 condoms on
You know, stuff exists now that makes that really unnecessary...
