I should have been more specific, I was thinking of activeX components in IE, they can be malicious, but need user acceptance to be used.
And yes, IE has other exploitable vulnerabilities. As said FF, IE and now Opera 10 have automatic updates to adress vulnerabilities where Opera 9.62 has a semi-automatic system.
I hope they include the bullet proof jacket as class I medical device. Suppose you are working in a caring center with Alzheimer patients armed with Class I medical devices. Or even as a visitor: "You, my son? Lyer,... boum, boum, boum"
I guess the day your 10 Mbps connection drops to 10 Kbps speeds, it will be within the service agreement. You can sue, but they don't want to hear about your problems as they provide you what you paid for.
The Fremen windtraps, if I remember right they tried to make a planet green again by catching and putting aside all the water of the planet. According to Lavoisier (rien ne se pert, rien ne se craie) this is not a good plan.
Focusing a 'low' power industrial laser 2 inches away is 'easy' (given ten years of experience). If I remember right: the electromagnetic field of a high power laser makes focusing impossible at some distance (>>2 inches). As for mirrors, I have an Ikea mirror that can reflect most of an unfocussed 1kW fased or unfased light beam without any problems.
yes, for most of us here on slashdot, this is incredibly brain dead, but in general, there is a problem with you if you blame the victim for a crime, no matter how foolish or stupid they acted
The poor victim thought she was helping stealing 20 million. Luckily it was about foreign monney, so no harm done.
Why is Cobol still alive and in demand? What's so good about it?
Because COBOL is an immortal, by the time you have reimplemented half the code-base, your puny newer language will be death or dying, supported by archaic packages and paradigmas, a memory of past ignorance.

I had to start up Outlook each time I wanted to edit text with images. With Opera 10 I don't have to.
Like in "IE what security holes?", the malware was designed to target IE, but it doesn't exploit any known IE vulnerability ... etc

I, for one, welcome our new Neanderthal overlords

US and other nations went into Afghanistan
No, no it is: Russia and other nations went into Afghanistan. The Russians where earlier. (being first is always difficult with those old countries)
Distance is the problem.

Ballmer's got nothing to fear. We all know who's responsible.
Developers.
I agree, had Vista not been late, only top computers could have run Vista.

By lack of plugins to try , Opera users waste their time 'promoting'.
I switched in 98, it had something to do with modem speed and use of tabs.
hardly gave them any time
Manufacturers had more than full year before the release date.
It always takes time: Microsoft got five years before release to get everything right.
Sometimes I care enough to use eulalyzer, sometimes I don't (I did not read the eulalyzer eula)

"In 2006 just 20% of Grand Centralâ(TM)s titles accounted for roughly 80% of its sales and an even larger share of its profits."
Impressive, years of hard work and focused marketing to make the pareto principle work.
