I was searching for the XXXX and NNNN stuff all over (altavista, google, msdn, dejanews). Thanks for posting the request, I now know why all these useless lines are showing up in my logs.
I have noticed that Altavista and Google just don't seem to keep up any more. I guess the internet became too big for them. A few years ago I liked using Altavista.
then at least I would know that it didn't apply to any of my servers. Instead, I have to read through a few paragraphs of crap before it gets to the "IIS security flaw" line.
have you actually watched free to air recently. It is really bad and most ads just insult your intelligence.
I would complain to yahoo - except I had to cancel my account when they would not agree to the Nader privacy letter.
I like NPR and the ABC (in Australia) - I guess I am in the minority here though.
I would expect them to tell the bank first. If the bank denied it, and continued to advertise they had a hack proof system, yes - tell the whole world so that my bank will fix it. I would then get my money out of there quickly and demand answers from the bank over their misleading conduct.
It is better for this information to be in the public under the world's eyes, than kept secret for crackers to exploit.
After all, if you go to the relevant web sites, they claim to use the best encryption protection available. If this is the case, what are they worried about? Why would they care about this person's presentation. According to their own web site, the presentation must be wrong and their customer's have nothing to worry about.
This has highlighted some false claims made by a company in marketing. Does this mean that next time someone claims their software is secure, it is illegal to prove it is not?
What about consumer protection laws - this is misleading conduct on the behalf of the companies involved.
We have all done or seen the experiment with fruit flys in biology class. Eventually the fruit flys over populate the container and die in their own pollution.
It is the same argument. However, many governments have regulated guns - it is just a matter of time before it happens.
I can't imagine keeping a software safe for all the offensive software and keeping a log of when I take it out and put it back in. That would be hard to regulate. FBI checks would also be hard to manage on ftp sites. Perhaps we can have software shows that get around the regulations.
This is quite common. If someone leaves a piece of "valuable" property at your place under your care. You are obliged to take reasonable care of it. You should be able to charge rent for the sq ft it occupies in your apartment. In some cases, you might be safe to guard it and insure it. You might even consider adding on some dog food and insurance costs to the storage bill.
How many people love playing with new hardware and consistently swap bits between their various machines. I think we will need to call them up at least 5 times a month - depending on how may toys we buy.
If that doesn't waist their time enough, we should take them to small claims if their hold times become too long at a peak time.
We could all arrange a time to do some group upgrades and all call in for the new install number. That would be fun.
Is there some web design rule that you must have an employment page full of jobs? To me, if just fired a bunch of people and you can't afford to hire, don't advertise that you have jobs!
... and Telstra knows this and counts on you not fighting it.
There is always the small claims court. You may not win - but imagine the personal satisfaction of dragging some Telstra rep down to the local magistrates court and sit through you explaining all the technical stuff to court:)
I have a similar problem. If I knew where to put the screw driver, I would do that. Are there any web sites telling me how to do the Bell Atlantic part myself. I know where the Telco cupboard is - what else do I need?

Way before Gore invented the internet, I had to buy a telephone number back in Australia. The company wanted the number and the person was able to negotiate a fair price for agreeing to transfer it. I see the conclusion of the judge perfectly reasonable.
If the internet casino is illegal, how can they enforce payment of debts? What can stop someone playing the site, losing the money, then complaining to VISA card that the site was illegal and you didn't know. That way you can get your money back. That would soon shut them down. The only people who would honour the contracts are the winners.
They fixed it ... but here is what it looked like

It is about time we (the people) started saying that.

They would need to get a court order to do the audit. Unless your silly government gave them extra powers.
