Added updated .dat file from McAfee to a keydrive, so it can be moved to c:\program files\common files\mcafee\engine. If machine is stuck in "no taskbar" mode, that is because svchost.exe has already been quarantined. If you right-click on the mini-taskbar, you can open taskmanager, then open a command shell by creating a new task, then typing "cmd" (sans quotes) in the popup prompt. Once you have a command window, you can xcopy the .dat file. Reboot the pc.

Copy the file svchost.exe out of this zip file to a key drive. You can then copy it to c:\windows\system32. Reboot and you should be OK.

If you are on xp sp2 or greater, you should be able to tab-complete paths for your xcopy command. THis means you start typing, then hit the "Tab" key on your keyboard, to help autocomplete the path/filename you are looking for. if you don't have tab, remember to put your path for c:\program files\... in quotes, since windows can't execute a command that has a space in it without them being wrapped in " ".

If you don't know xcopy, here is a fast man page.

read the source code of course

oh and using Flash 8 is not exactly revolutionary, well it is if you developed the Flash binary however using it doesnt really count, buying Adobe shares seems like a good move

I use YouSendIt, which purportedly allows users to send 1 GB files (I've never sent something this large, so I can't personally verify this). You don't even need to sign in to use the site. Uploads are pretty slow, but I've found the service to be useful.

(Disclaimer: I'm not affiliated with the site.)

Well, if I can't email directly, I can Email them a link to the file which is stored on a separate server and let them get it from there anonymously. Actually, I can input a fake email address with this service and just paste the link that's generated to SEVEN other people.

I've said it before, I'll say it again. There's ALWAYS a way around some security measure, and as usual, it's been around for some time now. Anything in the DMCA covering pre-existing services that only now happen to circumvent distribution/content-protection?

Man, email attachments of big files is so 90's... nowadays there is YouSendIt, give it a try. I use it quite a lot so share big files with friends, I hate sending files through any messenger service (msn, yahoo, etc etc), yousendit is simpler.

get it

Here's a yousendit.com mirror for when the other host no longer works.

Back when the GeForce 6800 was launched, during the launch presentation, one of the features that was supposed to become available was using the GPU to assist encoding video. As far as I know, this has yet to materialize.

how about http://www.yousendit.com/ it does 1GB files. And you don't need an email address or a password or need to sign up!

Actually, there are a few, depending on the size of the files you want to send, and how persistant you want the storage to be. You Send It is one I use (1 gigabyte files, good for 1 week). PutFile is another one - smaller file sizes (I think 60 megs for the free service), but the videos stay there longer.

http://www.yousendit.com/ does that if you like. Means leaving your email program though, but I find it a good way to send large files to people who only know how to email and surf

It's clearly true in every market I can think of, and also follows from general economic principles. The number of farms is going down; the number of phone companies is going down; the number of computer manufacturers is going down; the number of cable companies is going down; number of retailers is going down; etc.

How about the number of social networking sites? The number of portable MP3 players (okay, so Apple seems to have sewn up that market recently)? The number of blogging software products? The number of biotech firms? The number of private sellers on E-bay? The number of hybrid-drive cars (though most are made by existing manufacturers)? The number of temporary-file-storage sites, a la YouSendIt.com? The number of airlines (I can't remember whether that's going up or down right now; it fluctuates every 5 years or so)? The number of microcredit lenders operating in the third world? The number of firms in China?

What you see is consolidation, the process where all the also-rans in a mature industry drop out or get swallowed up by the market leader. But consolidation applies only to mature industries, where the market is saturated and most consumers are satisfied with the existing level of product quality. All around them, new companies get spun off to take advantage of new markets and new technologies. Sometimes even mature industries get eaten up from the bottom, like how U.S. Steel and Bethlehem Steel got replaced by Nucor and other minimills.

If it looks like the economy is settling down to a steady state, it's because you're looking at the stable portions of the economy. There are areas of the U.S. economy that are growing at 1000% or more (eg. IPods). There are areas where every Tom, Dick, and Jane has started their own business and they all hope to strike it rich (eg. social networking). There are undoubtably areas that could support the next Netscape, Google, or Microsoft, but if I could give you an example I'd be out there working on it instead of writing on Slashdot. ;-)

Steve Jobs's gift has been the ability to spot those areas. If it had just been the Apple 2, I'd chalk it down to luck, but he subsequently got lucky on the Macintosh, Pixar, the IMac, ITunes, the IPod, and now the Mac Mini. And I suspect that his decision to drop out of college had a lot to do with this, as it forced him to go out and search for opportunities. Most people get tunnel vision and only see what's right in front of them. If you want to make money, you've got to see what other people don't.

When I say competence is a commodity, I mean, for example, that if you design a better PC, every other PC manufacturer can duplicate anything better about that PC in the course of a few months.

So don't design a better PC. Let all the other competent people in that industry design one. Put your talents to work in an industry where competence isn't a commodity.

Go design an IDE for Ocaml or Haskell. Write some AJAX apps that do stuff people think can't be done over the web. Build a mobile computing device that lets you browse the web and doesn't have a screen the size of a postage stap. Write a programming language that can adapt and work around its own bugs instead of crashing and burning.

Anyway, the free market system rewards, more than anything else, not competence or excellence but size. The bigger your company, the better. This is basic economics, although not a part that libertarian idealogues like to emphasize.

And less basic economics then suggests ways that smaller companies routinely and reliably beat big companies. I recommend The Innovator's Dilemma and

Looks good -- can I trust them not to sell my and the recipient's addresses? Have you used them?
