I really hope you are joking. I have had a bad item on my credit for 5 years and have fought for 5 years to get it removed. So far I have managed to get it off of two credit reports, but not the third. I guess instead of having a job my employer should have refused to hire me and I could stand at a red light asking you for a dollar? Even though I have never made a late payment in the past 10+ years to anyone? Even though I have managed to save twice as much money in a savings account as my yearly salary?
I agree 100% and am sure they will understand. If they don't then they weren't worth helping in the first place. I have been a tech since 94 and have had to cut off lots of friends and family from support. Now days I charge everybody something (at least 35$/hour). I'd love to help everyone but I have a life to live. In return I always make sure people who help me get something out of it.
Getting viruses and spyware do not call for a complete reinstall unless you can do it or have someone who can. I work for a large PC in home repair company and I do over 10 virus and spyware cleanups a week. Very rarely do I ever have to reinstall systems. To clean viruses I charge $85-$127.50 depending on how long it takes ($85 an hour). A reinstall and getting all apps reinstalled and working usually starts at 3 hours or $255.
I agree with you for people like me and you who can reinstall our machines and don't get viruses. But for my customers with kids who usually have 5 viruses and over 100 spyware apps installed each cleanup, it doesn't make sense. They are just going to reinfect themselves and need protection.
The real problem is Norton and McAfee are crap. They are bloated and get easily corrupted. Very often someones machine is locking up or running super slow and just a reinstall of Norton fixes it. For my customers who don't surf the web other than a couple of sites and email I tell them don't use it.
I think the strangest thing he has done was annoiting himself with cooking oil all over his body.
Of course then there is that time when he put a cloak on the Spirit of Justice statue because it has a bare breast. Any man scared of a breast needs serious mental health attention unless of course he prefers penis.
Lastly the silly songs he makes his staff sing each day show signs of complete lunacy.

The fact that he can run our justice department really diminishes my hope that America will continue to be a great country. Lets get all those whack jobs out of the white house in November.
They didn't phase out coins they just switched to the new dollar coins. You can get rolls of them at banks. I never wanted an EZ-Tag monitoring me. Just because your paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.
If you are downloading from 100 servers it doesn't matter if all of them have saturated their connections. With that many downloads you should still have an aggregate of 1.54Mb/s regardless.
100/1.54 = 15.4Kb/s per connection. So if all one hundered were 56k modems it would still be way faster than 1.54Mb/s combined.
Since you are going to be downloading from large sites it is safe to assume 90% will have at least 15Kb/s of bandwidth.
Yes AC I know there is more than one OpenSSH hole but lets go back and count all bugs ever found in IE so we can be fair. I was refering to the fact that he knew of one hole (ok lets say three this year) and we are talking about six on one occasion.
Since you can't analyze the patches yourself I think this point is moot. I mean wouldn't they insert nasty code in a update rather than tell you what it is. If you update using non opensource patches then you are already giving the carte blanche IMO.
While I agree with you on giving people choices I disagree with the comparison of OpenSSH. You said it yourself, six holes in Windows/IE (today) and the hole in SSH. 100's of vulnerablities vs. one is not a very good comparison.
I used to argue the other side of this but not anymore. If someone is paying you to work you shouldn't be logging into your criminal empire from their machine. I guess you lose your privacy for being such a moron.
The point here isn't that the FBI logged the passwords it is that they used them to hack their computers and steal evidence. This is the same blackmail these guys were using against companies. The FBI became a criminal to catch one which I think is very wrong.
Only if they used the credit card on someone elses (their companies) computer while that person was paying them to do something else (a job). Yeah in that case I think you might have a point. At home you do have complete privacy, these guys were fools for hacking from someone elses computer. If they got a connection and used ssh from their own pc/laptop they wouldn't be in trouble right now.
It could actually help. If it takes a normal plane 20 hours to get from Sydney to London and this one 2 that is 18 less hours in the air per flight. Of course that all depends on the exhaust ratio of the two planes.
Bad example. IMHO it is an example of an asshole who deserves what he gets. Maybe if someone else poses a good example I will understand.
As for war demos. or protesting Cheney, people shouldn't do things in public they don't want everyone to know about. This is something I accepted a long time ago.
Well since you posted with your nick and not AC hopefully no one reads this you know and later gets mad and points it out to your wife!
Not that you said you did this but it does show how you think. This is a very greedy way to look at life. If your wife isn't enough for you, be a man and leave her. Find a woman who will let you be a ho or enjoy the single life. If you are running around I hope your wife is getting her fill of pleasure in return.

Its bigger than that, I typed windows xp and "windows xp crack" was suggested.

Why drink bourbon when you have pure ethanol? =P

Sorry but according to my dictionary faith is: Belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence.

I found a page with google that looks to have windows 1.01 and QNX links.
I think you can get three of them from this link - http://toastytech.com/guis/indexlinks.html
This was a good post and I agree completely. Next time divide your post into paragraphs so more people will take time to read it.

You just repeated the parent. His answer was, no plurals do not use an apostrophe.
I'm sure some people raised there hands. Now if those people found a hole some would share it with the rest of us. Get it yet?
Oh and I work on my own car and go through source code in my spare time so your points don't work much on me. I don't trust M$ nor mechanics.
BTW a friend works at Jiffy Lube and always has interesting stories on how the boss makes him take suckers to the cleaners.

Yeah but the real question is - How many times does a rat need to pee before he finishes of six cups of coffee?
Yeah yeah I know sex cups of coffee worth of caffeine bleh bleh.
