  1. Re:A router can be a firewall too on The Setup Behind Microsoft.com · · Score: 0

    IIS is a web server, thus those are web server logs
    Read.
  2. A router can be a firewall too on The Setup Behind Microsoft.com · · Score: 0, Redundant
    From TFA:

    At this point we still don't use firewalls for MS.COM sites[...] 1. We don't handle HBI data so we don't have the need for external logging capabilities. If we did handle HBI, we'd have firewalls.
    Can someone explain this please? HBI?

    2. [...] Just IIS logs are a challenge without trying to parse another ~650GB of firewall logs.
    That's a non-argument. I use iptables without the LOG target; why would i want to log packets before dropping them? This would make no sense to me. If i want a NIDS, i'll install a NIDS.

    2. Router ACLs are in place to block unnecessary ports
    Wait a minute, ACLs you say?! Isn't this *exactly* what firewalls are for? Blocking/allowing IP ranges and incoming connections on certain ports...
  3. Re:Rehash on Opera Files EU Complaint Against Microsoft · · Score: 1

    Actually, you've probably come across a website that runs .NET many times by now. Just like you've seen websites that use PHP or RoR. I prefer the LAMP stack and its variants, but if some admin/programmer decides to use ASP.NET, C#.NET or whatever.NET for a website then that's fine with me (as long as I'm not involved in the project ;). The important thing is that W3C standards are implemented, and that goes for any server-side scripting tool.

    But ofcourse MSFT is still trying to make the web theirs, thank Google they're not very succesful at it as of lately.

  4. VGA is obsoleted by SVGA on Spike VGAs Confuse, Gamecock Apologizes · · Score: 2, Funny

    Am I the only one who got confused because VGA means "Video Graphics Array"? Never mind "gamecock", somehow I'm not inclined to learn what that is.

  5. Re:Basic Encryption? on Privacy Breach In Canadian Passport Application Site · · Score: 1

    I've already done something similar so sue me! Prior art will invalidate your patent.

  6. Original page on Don't Let Your Boss Catch You Reading This · · Score: 1

    This article was copied from Reuters, here's the original page: http://www.reuters.com/article/technologyNews/idUS L2067072120070829

  7. Atleast 1 of them is plugged already on The Java Popup you Can't Stop · · Score: 1

    On my Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.6 with NoScript set to allow that website, the JavaScript version throws this exception:

    uncaught exception: java.security.PrivilegedActionException: java.security.PrivilegedActionException: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException

    The Java version works, but can still be beaten by going into a virtual console (or logging in from remote) and killing the java_vm process (which may crash firefox-bin too, bummer).

  8. Already done on Firefox Lite And Old PCs Could Crush IE · · Score: 1

    I'm sorry but this has already been done, it includes tabs (as "pages") and bookmarks, but it's much lighter then Mozilla Firefox: K-Meleon

    But I wouldn't recommend running Windows on old PC's, especially when they're connected to the Internet. Build Epiphany with XULRunner, it's a pretty good browser IMHO.
