Galeon has been my browser of choice for many months. I think I started using it at about v0.9, give or take a month or so.
I love it, can't live without it, but... it's got a problem. It's slowing down.
My hardware hasn't changed (dual p3-500) other than bumping ram from 256M to 512M, but with each new galeon release it's turned from lightning to treacle. Opening a new window takes *seconds*. Opening a number of new windows at the same time is painful.
So... what's up with that? Will I expect better from galeon2, or will it just slow down further, forcing me to change camps - I certainly don't want to buy new processors because an application drifted towards bloatware!!
In addition to apache code patches there is a module mod_blowchunks, and also a perl handler (also named blowchunks) that will nullify the attempts.
Plus, some proxying firewalls (raptor happens to be one) will prohibit the dangerous requests from being passed through to apache. For that matter, a patched apache with a mod_proxy redirect to the original webserver will protect, but pass through the original server's ident string.
Just looking at an advertised daemon version identifier is never enough to tell if it is vulnerable.
I got a bunch from "Domain Registry of America". If I'd not already shredded and recycled them I would type in some of the text.
From memory, though, it looks like a bill. First glance and it looks very much like the bills that NSI pumped out a couple of years ago.
If, however, you read the first paragraph it says (perhaps even in bold) something to the effect of "this is not a bill", and then "you are free to register through any registrar, this is an easy method for you to choose us. check our details and decide for yourself".
My first reaction was fury, but after READING THE FIRST PARAGRAPH I had calmed down over it.

Microsoft may not be actually writing itself a cheque, but this could be the start of some great 'creative' accounting, if put in the right (wrong) hands.

When asked if the new and cheaper solution would be offered to the State of California as an alternative to its outstanding, yet controversial, $95 contract, Ellison said the state of course has the option. Oracle has said repeatedly that it is willing to renegotiate the deal.
As for Oracle's recent threat of a profit warning for its fourth-quarter, Ellison said Oracle was in its quiet period but would not issue a profit warning.
At $95, I'd say there's no real need to renegotiate.
That's a good point. I could (with effort, and perhaps some self-hypnotism) start to type n-e-t-c-a-t instead of t-e-l-n-e-t. After all, it's only taken me a year to start typing h-o-s-t instead of n-s-l-o-o-k-u-p:-)
Ssh - I use for connecting to other machines. Telnet - I use for testing webservers, mail servers, news servers, testing whether ssh servers are alive and what version they're running, etc etc.
Just because the telnet DAEMON is undesirable doesn't mean the client is so too.

Actually, I think they only caused traffic patterns to change when they actually stole the computers, not when they decided to as the original article would seem to indicate.

Laugh. It's a joke.

Uhhhhhh. Wireless. Would that be shared 11mbps across the festival? Swap audio? yeah, right.
Who owns your primary IP range, though?
UUNet or your backup provider?

Not me. I reckon it's 1.00000 earthins (diameter), or 1.00000 earthons (circumference).

Easy.
1. collect underpants
2. wait
3. travel to mars!!

All of them.
The phrase you're looking for is 'percussive maintenance' :-0
try setting $http_proxy (lowercase) instead.
Quoting the article:

I use telnet more often than I use ssh.
Ssh - I use for connecting to other machines.
Telnet - I use for testing webservers, mail servers, news servers, testing whether ssh servers are alive and what version they're running, etc etc.

$300 is more like 20 times (or more) what you'd pay for a domain if you avoid verisign
The best microprocessor, quite obviously is alancoxonachip.
It's probably his favourite as well.
No wait. That's just the ringing in *my* ears you're hearing.
If you have arctic 3 spread like butter then it's on too thick, and not able to perform as well as it should....
I'd consider reapplying with the suggested amount (which is, to paraphrase, put some on, rub it about, remove *all* excess).
