You can get P2P to work with the firewall, you need a bit of knowledge though.
E.g. for napster; go the firewall dialog and hit settings, change to the services tab and hit 'add', enter the port number to open.
It's not obvious how to get here, and you have to know the port number, obviously.
For Napster, you are told this in the Napster config (on the 'sharing' tab), but you still have to know where to look.

Working in an old tin can 300 kilometers above the Earth is serious business, but even so the occupants of the Mir space station have shared a few lighthearted moments during the ship's 15-year life.
The fun times were not all inspired by the videos and bottles of brandy sent up to help the cosmonauts and astronauts unwind after a day of grind aboard the station, which was to be dumped into the Pacific Ocean on Friday morning.
Between experiments, the crew played jokes on newcomers and even on unsuspecting people back on Earth.
One favorite prank was tapping on the station's window to knock off space dust. With the sun's rays brightly illuminating the particles of dust and no background to judge their size, the cosmonauts easily tricked newcomers into believing that nothing less than UFOs were slowly passing by.
Cosmonaut Sergei Krikalyov managed to chat to a truck driver on a road in South Africa as he flew hundreds of kilometers overhead in 1992.
Krikalyov sneaked an amateur radio onboard Mir and used it to establish a link with the truck driver, who was heading to Kimberley.
The unsuspecting driver thought it was one of his colleagues driving on a nearby road and called Krikalyov a prankster when the cosmonaut said was he was heading for America via India and China.
Despite Krikalyov's efforts to explain that he was actually talking from high above, the South African refused to believe the cosmonaut. The driver rogered "See you in Kapstadt," as he signed off.
Such pranks, however, were arguably dwarfed by a joke that cosmonaut Alexei Leonov pulled on a crewmate in a two-man spacecraft that was a predecessor to Mir.
Leonov's comrade accidentally locked himself in a compartment. He spent several minutes banging on the locked door and shouting, only to hear Leonov finally murmur: "Who's there?" recalls Russian space agency spokesman Vyacheslav Mikhailichenko.
When the Mir crew ran out of alcohol reserves, they would often go on "treasure-seeking" expeditions for more, tearing down interior panels to find bottles hidden by previous crews, said Alexander Poleshchuk, who spent six months on board Mir in 1993.
"Sometimes we would bump into a bottle of cognac. What a joy it was," Poleshchuk said in a recent interview with Komsomolskaya Pravda.
But unlike cosmonauts -- who for luck urinate on the back tire of the bus that takes them to the launch pad -- the officials who command them from Mission Control near Moscow prefer to remain "serious" and "concentrated," said Viktor Blagov, Mir's deputy control chief.
"No, we don't do anything like that on our control panels," Blagov added, laughing.
First Carmody took the original anonymous version of the DeCSS C-code and gzip'ed it (a standard UNIX program for making files smaller). Suppose we call the resulting number k. By Dirichlet's theorem on primes in arithmetic progression, we know that for each fixed integer b relatively prime to k, there are infinitely many primes ak+b.
For technical reasons, if we choose a to be a power of 256 larger than b, the resulting number can still be unzipped to get the original file. This means there are infinitely many prime numbers which yield the same code. These include: k*256^2+2083 and k*256^211+99. At the time these were found they both were large enough to fit on the list of largest known primes (because of the method of proof).
I think they had to. If they had bought it out then that would just legitimise it, and the clones would have more defense or an expectation of being bought as well.
The RIAA will kill Napster, and be able to use the decision as a precedent in their fight against the clones.
In the meantime they can start their own online music services running under their own rules.
BO2K only installs itself as a service (daemon) not as a device driver.
But you need admin rights for both so there's no reason why it couldn't.
You need to be an admin to install the sound card device driver, so you can just install the DRM-bypassing, audio-ripping device driver at the same time.
You're right, NT security isn't going to help at all.

But 3 months!

Outlook isn't a fault. Outlook just makes it easier to run attachments then other mail programs, that's all.
If a bunch of microsoft employees receive something which looks like notepad.exe in a vaguely plausible sounding message "This is the new version of notepad for Whistler, please test it" then someone is going going to run it, whether they just click the link or have to manually extract and uudecode and unzip it.
The hackers only needed one gullible person...
Any e-mail software can receive executables, any person can run the executable without checking it. That's why there is software around to check for malicious code, and it didn't work.

Whether or not the design of Outlook is good, outlook was working as designed at the time.
The AV software on the other hand wasn't. Or wasn't being used properly.

The right to shutdown the machine is assignable on a user and group basis.
See "local security policy" under admin tools.
By default though, non-admin user's do have the rights to shutdown (on professional, at least)
It's an ugly looking thing.
Pranks Show Lighter Side of Mir

Wheels were incremental - e.g. dragging, rolling on logs, wheels fixed to thing being dragged. Fire wasn't an innovation - it occurs naturally.
First Carmody took the original anonymous version of the DeCSS C-code and gzip'ed it (a standard UNIX program for making files smaller). Suppose we call the resulting number k. By Dirichlet's theorem on primes in arithmetic progression, we know that for each fixed integer b relatively prime to k, there are infinitely many primes ak+b.

At the time these were found they both were large enough to fit on the list of largest known primes (because of the method of proof).
Then 1 has 3 factors. 1, 1 and 1. Therefore it isn't prime.

So now they have no recourse against the government at all
Except for the democratic process of elections,of course.
Is this a 5 minute argument or the full half hour?
Because your eyes would be too near the monitor.
If they don't make money on the hardware then they shouldn't have a problem with clones. They can still control the software.
The moon is going somewhere. It's getting further away from the earth by nearly 4 cm per year.
