While that guy who uploaded it was a dick, I'd recommend at least trying to sell it on there, even if you only get pocket change... The other guy thought it might sell obviously.
Have you actually used Firefox 4 on a Mac? The usual excuses are simply invalid - you open FF4b10 with Google as home page with barely anything on screen - 230MB is now gone! Safari opening Apple's oh-so-blingy home page is only using 100MB. "Max Number of Pages Stored in Memory" simply doesn't apply.
This "this is not technically a memory leak" thing is irrelevant when user experience is concerned.
This next statement direct answer to both your statements. Webkit (Chrome and Safari) and Gecko (Firefox) work very differently. Firefox has sane disk cache limits (the default is 75MB), but instead opts to store much more in memory for the sake of speed.
There is no setting for Chrome nor Safari to change the disk cache, and in Chrome only a command line setting will change it. I've seen it balloon to 1GB.
So you see, for the sake of speed, something has to give. Firefox chose the route of RAM, probably following the philosophy that Linux users have that unused RAM is wasted RAM (hence Linux OS having the RAM cache full of files and regular users freak out. Since you are on a Mac, try running free in the command line and see your cache usage). Webkit I'm not sure why they do what they do, but considering the disk is currently much faster than any non-LAN network, it opts to use the disk.
So you see, there's very good reasons why these behaviors occur, and both have obvious advantages and disadvantages, all in the name of speed.
Click Edit for Mac/Linux or Tools for Windows, Configuration Mania, which should be under preferences.
Make sure Browser is highlighted on the top row, if not click it. Click Browser Cache on the Left Column. Press Disabled under Max Number of Pages Stored in Memory.
It keeps closed pages all in RAM, and decides based on your total RAM how much it will save. There are almost no leaks, just dumb decisions (developers) and judgments (users).
They probably are not going to really check. I bet it's going to require a save on the cloud for X popular game, which requires you to be on the PSN, which of course requires the latest update which may or may not kill any software mods.
Considering that your computer is near unusable after a certain amount of time when first turned on, yes they probably know it was never intended to be activated and/or was never sold.
That's definitely a fatal error with Windows and not Chrome. If you uninstall Chrome it offers to reassociate URL settings to your other browser. Windows XP has bugs with associations where this could happen.

But Canada is the icy dapper top-hat of USA!
What?

I'm babbling, I should get back to work now.

Well there's your problem, good sir.
The language you are looking for is Haskell, or maybe Scheme/Lisp.
factorial n = product [1..n]
Is an entire subroutine for factorials, for example.
I was about to retort with PRIVACY WARBLE, but then I wondered if visitor count would apply for Do-Not-Track.

A game isn't fun if I'm scrambling to read the manual every 5 minutes to make sure I'm doing something right.

But I love the blink tag! :(
I.E This means it's free to distribute and download, just gotta find a mirror for your OS.
(They are both good games, worth a look at least.)
Oops I accidentally the whole series.
The Ace Attorney and the spinoff Perfect Prosecutor doesn't count?
Considering that your computer is near unusable after a certain amount of time when first turned on, yes they probably know it was never intended to be activated and/or was never sold.
Furthermore, how can someone prove they removed Windows 7 from a computer they bought?
You don't activate it. When you turn on your computer for the first time it asks to activate it. It's that simple.

Mine works with DD-WRT (and is currently running it) but only the micro version, which doesn't have IPv6 due to the lack of space and RAM.
If you care:
Router Model Linksys WRT54Gv8 / GSv7
Firmware Version DD-WRT v24-sp2 (04/23/10) micro - build 14311

You don't. You know that preview button?
Yeah, use it.
Also, press the options button and change the text mode to plain old text.
Black handhelds are fingerprint magnets. They look ugly after much use. The white version mitigated this significantly.
World of Portal 4 Dead: smash zombies up using only gravity and well placed portals, and sell their remains for profit.
Sounds like something Valve and Blizzard would make.
*Updates chromium* Oh, wow it's very close to Firebug. I'm sorry carry on.
