That would be true....if clamav used the OpenAntivirus defs...but they don't. I forget offhand where they do get them from nowadays, but it contained Sobig.E the day after it came out (and, of course, you could run the sigtool and generate your own in the interm.)
Well, you see, that's the thing. If you're looking, as the submitter stated, for something with a) exchange functionality, that uses b) exchange messaging protocols, and c) exchange clients, then, dammit, use exchange.
If, on the other hand, you're looking for an open source groupware manager, with email, contacts, scheduling, public/private folder/message board, all server side for person-portability, then we'll talk about such things.
But if, as this guy is, you're looking for 'exchange, only free' then the response will be 'TANSTAAFL.'
Oh yeah, I guess I don't know anything about Exchange. I should have known that migration from a Microsoft product to something better couldn't go off without a hitch.
Maybe it would, but not in this case, where you advocate upgrading a MAIL SERVER product to a DATABASE product.
I believe the justification behind IR camera is that you're radiating, and they're just picking it up; xray or radar is different, as they're actively 'scanning' you by sending out a signal, then interpreting the results. Therefore, because they are, in some way, breeching your premesis, they're doing a defacto 'search.'
In other words, if they can hear you're stereo from the street, they can bust you. But they can't point a laser microphone at your window without appropriate warrants.
Ah, the datalink. There's a serial port thingy you can get, that will produce the flashes. I believe it was originally marketed as the 'notebook adaptor,' as an LCD can't produce the flashes either, but they note that you also need it under NT/2000/XP for the reasons you cite.
The truth of it is, if you have a 'cost center' you should dump it right away; if it's costing you money, with nothing to show for it, lose it.
If you have an 'infrastructure' center, or a 'indirect revenue center,' on the other hand, nurture it, love it. The toilets in your building aren't actively making you money, but for damn sure you need to keep them there. Same with IT. IT doesn't make you a profit, but it enables the other revenue centers to do so.
Indeed that's the norm, since most Windows developers use Microsoft's compilers that ship with Visual Studio and other x86 environments like Linux are dominated by gcc development.
So if the average x86/windows developer is going to be using VS, why didn't apple compile with VS on x86?
The usual custom is to provide these middle-level managers with a larger-than-usual desk and comfortable chair near a window, but not give them any staff or duties to perform. Thereafer, they idle away the years, waiting for the time they reach the firm's mandatory retirement age.
They do serve a purpose, however.
When visitors are shuffled off on members of the "window tribe" it is a sign that the visitors, and whatever proposition they may have brought with them, are not considered important.

There is a term, I forget the Japanese spelling, but the translation is 'the beside the window tribe.' It refers to one who is given and office, with a window, where the individual will then sit, quietly, until retirement, looking out the window, never again given anything useful or important to do.
Aye, but that's the point. When you buy a Floyd album, or Dream Theatre, you're getting an album full of gold. Sure, one or two tracks might not turn your crank, but you still know they're not fill.
When you buy Madonna, chances are you're buying it because of that sticker on the front saying 'Includes the hit single *insert name here*!' and the rest of the album IS fill; sounds nothing like the popular track, yadda yadda yadda.
They've been dumbing down the games in general. I remember playing Payday years ago, and when I bought it again recently, half of the gameplay was simply excised. Suck.
Full House is another classic I remember from my youth.
Actually, the XBOX in general is good for co-op play. Both Halo and Brute Force, for example, support honest-to-goodness co-op play, through the exact same campaigns that the single-play goes through.
Yes, but saying 'they're in some other spam resource already' is rather disingenious.
At that point, it becomes 'reject ALL MAIL for one hour, on the theory that if it's brand new spam, it'll be in RAZOR in an hour.'
Well, shit. Here's an idea. Have a function in mail servers so that they each have a public/private key. When you connect to a mail server, you give it your public key. It can then check that public key against a public database of 'known good' servers.
If the recieving server thinks that the sending server is lying about/forging/copying the public key it needs only encrypt something with it, send it to the server. The sending server can then decrypt it with the private key, re-encrypt it with the public key of the recieving server, again, gleaned from the online database, and send it back, where the receving server decrypts it with it's on private key, and compares it to what it sent out. If it matches, obviously, both servers are who they claim they are.
The processing time for doing the crypts/decrypts is made up for by the lack of processing time spamming.
The public database works on a rating system. Pick a level of comfort, and start rejecting mail from servers that a) don't give you a public key to check against, or b) start to accumulate lots of negative comments about spamming.
Oh, and at that point, you can probably throw in a neat little system whereby you can encrypt something with the private key of the server, throw it into all outgoing mail, then a server that gets a mail from you can decrypt it, so it knows it came from you. This will prevent forged from addresses in spams which wind up getting completely non-offending mail servers in trouble.
No fuss, no muss. Remember, you heard it here first, as to the best of my knowledge, I've never heard this system suggested in this way, for e-mail.

Especially since, as he points out, the next version of the *app* fixed the problem.

Interesting. I didn't know that Oracle offered this product.
I don't feel like downloading a PDF on my (sadly dial-up) home connection, but I'll be taking a look to find the underlying technology.
Maybe it would, but not in this case, where you advocate upgrading a MAIL SERVER product to a DATABASE product.
Mayhaps you meant upgrading SQL Server to Oracle?
Where do they get the scratch to keep the company going? Takes a lot of money to pay people to do nothing...just ask Eidos about Ion Storm...
There's a difference between doing something in public, and being searched, and being in your house, and being searched.
Cops can't come and shine a flashlight through the window of your house, but they can shine one into your car, if they stopped you on a public road.
TFA says you need a 'dollop' of solder between the two pins.
You don't, supposedly, need a mod chip, though.
I'm pulling this out of my ass, but it seems pretty reasonable.
X-ray goes through things; they put an emitter on one side of you, a reciever on the other side, and they watch where things don't penetrate.
Backscatter puts the reciever beside the transmitter, and the watch what bounces.
Put the two together, and you get the best of both worlds.
So as long as you're not exposed for, oh, ten minutes at a time, you'll probably be fine.

And it was rather disturbing; it was nothing graphic, but it was vicious, in it's own way, and it fit the story and the context perfectly.
Ah, but if you watch the opening video, you get to watch Christie go skinny dipping.
Conker Xbox, by the way, "Live and Uncut" is a remake of the N64 with new stuff thrown in, then an Xbox Live version of the multiplayer stuff.
Besides, most slashdotting occurs as either a) incorrectly set up connections to databases or b) bandwidth exceeded.
Aye.

And what percent of people do you think bought the original DOOM and cared that it had LAN support?
It all has to start somewhere.
Ah, found it. It's 'Madogiwa Zoku.'
They do serve a purpose, however.
