  2. Re:And what if not? on EU Fines Microsoft $1.3 Billion · · Score: 1

    Well it wont happen because MS won't really notice the money being taken, it happens over a period of time and come out mainly from sale's tax. pennies!

  3. Re: PC World Tests Final Version of Vista SP1 on "Vista Capable" Lawsuit Is Now a Class Action · · Score: 1

    What makes you think it was swaping all the time? the noise of the hard drive! well i'd put that down to microsoft mischief not the OS doing something that it has too. SP1 is more likely designed to remove this as now they've collected everything they need to know about you and your software/hardware.

  4. Re:Just so I've got this right.. on "Vista Capable" Lawsuit Is Now a Class Action · · Score: 1

    I'm willing to bet that how he managed to get rid of her is somehow related to filesystems.

  8. Re:That summary needs fixing. on Largest Hacking Scam in Canadian History · · Score: 3, Insightful

    slight correction: The hackers collaborated online to attack and take control of as many as one million MS Windows computers around the world that were not up to date with patches and didn't have users with common sense.

  9. Re:if you can't patent maths on Courts May Revisit Software Patents · · Score: 1

    programming for 25 years and I can't understand this programming and Math relation? It reminds me of a Chinese student that remarked on my studies "you must be good at Math"?? what okay it was 8086 assembly but all you got to know is how to count.. this simple fact is key to almost everything, unless I'm developing something that needs advanced Mathematics then no I don't need to have anything else but basic ability to count from 1 to 10. I've even developed 3D environments for simulation of mechenical devices without the need for anything other than basic Math. Programming is not Mathematics.

  14. IPv4 ~ IPv6 eqiv on Four Root DNS Servers Go IPv6 On February 4th · · Score: 0

    every ipv4 address has an ipv6 address already so no need to worry about anything, ipv4 works with ipv6 and ipv6 works with ipv4....

  15. Re:MD5 lookup as defence on Domains May Disappear After Search · · Score: 1, Informative

    No... all domains that are registered have an existing MD5 sum... now if you lookup a MD5 encoded domain it gets tested against existing MD5/all domains in the registrar, if you have a match then the domain has already been registered if no match the domain is free to be registered.. another thing to note is the whois owners also dont know what you looked up so they can be out of the frame also!

  16. MD5 lookup as defence on Domains May Disappear After Search · · Score: 5, Interesting

    perhaps whois should provide Md5 lookup for a domain instead so people cant snoop at the domain being queried.. so instead of for example whois: somedomain.tld its whois: a79f888f1c2dc50c6b354c0d816f5bf5 simple and effective.
