I used all versions of Photoshop up through 7.0,, now I use the Gimp exclusively. Not that there is anything wrong with Photoshop, I just became tired of paying a premium to use it. If you are old school and don't need a bunch of fancy plug-ins to accomplish an objective; for the serious photographer Gimp is the perfect fit.
Sure I can. We are generally alerted to the potential presence of malware on a system via a Snort alert. The help desk ran a boot scan of the system using a popular antivirus package updated with the latest defs and found nothing. I obtained the system and did a bit level copy of the hd. I then used some open source forensics tools (essentially the same tools that are the meat and potatoes of popular commercial forensics tools like encase) to examine the contents of the disk. I was able to locate the malware and pinpoint the original install date, details are too lengthy to go into in this forum. I generally submit anything I find to the two malware sites just to see what they come up with, especially if I find malware in a place heretofore unknown. Sometimes for fun I also run it on a test system so I can compare what happens on my system to what is reported by the two malware sites. Interestingly and often enough, there differences.
I've performed a forensic analysis on numerous Windows machines and have discovered rootkits that have lived on machines undetected for up to two years even though they were up to date on patches and AntiVirus defs. In fact one of the rootkits was unknown until I discovered it and sent a copy to threatexpert and virustotal.
but the obstacles are immense. Egos are massive and competition is fierce, so asking researchers to admit a mistake or give the competition a short cut is a tall order.
Yeah, the Governator's wife has been busted a couple of times, and Will Smith's wife admitted she texts while driving, if they don't obey they law who will? Cause we all know everyone looks to celebrities to lead the way! (tongue in cheek)
You want search privacy? Try using Ixquick.com - great results that rival Google and ultimate privacy as it is located in a country that actually respects privacy and has no Patriot Act.
Instead of trying to get the information removed and perform a cover-up like the shady Bush Cheney administration, why not blog about your mistake, how it happened, what you learned from it and how you have grown since then. If you blog this information on a prominent blogging site, it will be easily found as well and then problem solved.
$34 to see if your password can survive a dictionary attack? Hell pay me $20 and I'll gladly save you some money and provide you with a password guaranteed to be unbreakable by brute force. I'll even sign an NDA to ensure I don't disclose it to anyone but rest assured even I won't be able to remember it!
I personally hope they don't find the Higgs boson as Dr. Hawking has predicted, as that will be far more interesting than if they do in my opinion.
"I'd put the chance we will find the Higgs boson or something similar to it at pretty close to 100 per cent. From a physicist's standpoint, if you don't find that it's almost more interesting, because it means we got it wrong and there is other stuff going on we don't understand." - Paul Jackson
a clear indicator that the coolness, thus the use of a site, has or is reaching its peak. Sounds like the officers want to get some sweet IPO action going to cash in before Facebook goes the way of all the other flash-in-the-pan popular sites which have preceded it. Facebook is sooooooo uncooool now that my grandma and every stupid marketing firm is on it!
a big pant-load of results based on guessing what the analyzed data means.
For example, I usually skip commercials. Sometimes when I am multi-tasking thus only half-watching I forget to skip the commercials, but I am not watching them either. And so on...
One thing I know for sure, I picked the wrong business, weathermen and marketing analysis experts amount to the same thing; getting paid for guessing with no repercussions for being wrong. A perfect job!

that based on experience, retailers that propose setting up an ecommerce site should forgo all "canned" shopping carts and fork over the minimal money it will cost to have one custom written to fit your business.
If you are attempting to launch a business without the initial funds to spend around $1000 on a custom shopping cart, with the expectation of spending more money down the road adding custom features tailored to your business if proved successful, then you are not ready to start your business.
Actually, NoScript only does part of the job, google-analytics.com, coremetrics.com, any many other ad/tracking entities sneak around NoScript on many sites, including/.
Install the RequestPolicy add-on and browse/. again, you will see what I mean.
What I think you mean is that one should not use any encryption algorithm or package which is not open for peer review. That is true, but however that is not the case for TrueCrypt. The code and algorithms are completely open for peer review, thus it is far better than any closed source option and I for one say you should use it. So what if it is technically not distributed under an OpenSource license? All that means is you can't personally give it away, you must point any prospective users to the package. As for commercial considerations, they must license it; so what is wrong with that?

In 30 years AI 'is likely to eliminate almost all of today's decently paying jobs.' A bold statement and likely FUD.

Why did you link to the plagiarist's site instead of the original CNET article from which the text was copied verbatim.
/.'ers who modded this story up.
Oh I know - it was submitted anonymously by the site owner.
Shame on the

haha good one, though you risk being modded offtopic like I was, seems some /.'ers don't get the Mc references as well as the rest of society.

Not really, email templates are essentially how MoveOn.org works and they are very effective.
