The only reason I have one is because I won it from TacoBell. I can't even use some of the features because I don't have a PS3. None of my old PSP games will work on it (even the downloadable ones). None of my friends with a PS3 are interested in buying it from me at half MSRP...:(
That's a pretty good protocol given the recent development and marketing of products to help protect you from zombies. Zombie Max is ammunition by Hornady.

Again, we repeat, Hornady® Zombie Max ammunition is for use on ZOMBIES ONLY, and that's not a nickname, phrase or cute way of referring to anybody, place or thing.

I could care less who is doing the categorization. There are going to be mistakes. The important thing is being able to challenge the rating. Most of these content filtering products have URL category lookup and you can report sites that need further review.
I've been using a Network Documentation Tool (Netdot) for a while now. It is still in active development but certainly useful. It can easily be adapted to networks outside of academia. They implement feature requests pretty often too.

Some of this (about a third) worked for me in Firefox with the user agent switcher add on. The default user agent switcher doesn't include safari but you can import them from the following URL. http://techpatterns.com/forums/about304.html
I personally don't see this as fragmentation, just maturing. These last couple of updates are just finally getting around to the features that users really wanted from the beginning. FULL exchange support, tethering, hotspot, multitouch, etc. These are all features that users wanted from experiences with other phones but Android didn't have full support for.
The problem will be when you can't upgrade the OS because of hardware related reasons within 6 months. Someone who signs a 2 year contract expects that phone to last 1.5-2 years. You can't just go in and upgrade your phone and get the deal price because you haven't completed your contract. Some vendors let you trade in early. Or, if you purchase the phone outright for $500 with no contract, having to shell out another $500 6 months later to get features that should already be there would really suck. Fortunately, the hardware specs on the majority of these newer devices should last at least 2 years IMO.
I ended up purchasing these games all for $50. I had never heard of any of them prior to seeing this on SD. I've only downloaded/installed and played a little bit of World of Goo and doubt I'll have much time to download and play any of the others. I was originally going to offer less knowing that I only would be able to play one but I felt cheap knowing that this was also a fundraiser.
Hmm... after further reading on what SSH over DNS is, I'm not sure that I could block it... Have to dig into it more. Thanks for pointing this out to me. I've never seen this before.:)
Sure. Proxy intercepts DNS requests and forwards them to our Internal DNS servers. Firewall has a rule to block outbound DNS requests except those by our internal servers. The internal servers are only allowed outbound requests to our ISPs DNS servers.
In our company it's as simple as opening up a ticket. Submit your request as well as your reason and in almost 100% of the cases it gets approved and the proxy/firewall policy gets changed to permit whatever it was you wanted. It goes along the lines of deny all to start and then start allowing as things are needed. It's security 101.
Now, if you submit a ticket asking for request to some obvious non work related site (p2p, gambling, pr0n, etc.) its going to get blocked. Otherwise we are very reasonable. We've had requests come though to allow users to listen to their online media subscriptions (sirius) or Zune. Doesn't mean I'm going to allow users to start downloading music via torrent or emule.
I don't understand why people always try to "get around" these restrictions. If there is a legitimate business need, then get it approved. These preventions are put in place for a reason. The more open the network, the more risk. The more risk means more virus, trojans, botnets, data leakage, etc. IT then has to cleanup your mess.
Besides, SSH tunnels won't work on my network. I've got all protocols being intercepted by the proxy (including encrypted). Then an application firewall behind that to make sure the proxy is doing it's job. Social networking is blocked. End of story. And yes, management backs me.
Want to screw off at work? Get an smartphone and do it on your own device. Get a netbook with an aircard. I don't give a fsck what you do at work. It's not my job to make sure you're spending your time wisely. However, it is my job to protect our computers/network and I do that by blocking "risky" sites.
Any sysadmin who is in charge of said filtering is likely blocking all DNS servers at the firewall and only allowing their DNS servers to perform outbound requests. And/or intercepting DNS requests at the transparent proxy and forwarding them to their internal DNS servers which are authorized to perform outbound requests. Not to mention that you need admin privileges to change the DNS servers on your NIC. If you're thinking rogue DHCP server, they can be blocked rather easily using DHCP snooping on the switch.
Agreed. I've been running AV free (that is without av) for at least 2 years on my XP Pro home workstation. I periodically scan my system with ClamAV portable or similar and I've found no evidence of infection. I just practice safe computing. Running as a non admin account and safe surfing with Firefox. I'm not suggesting that others should do this, but it just goes to show that simple basic measures can remove most risk of virus/spyware infection.
Delaware has both a law that says you can and another law that says you can't. However, a federal court has upheld the right to record as long as one of the parties knows about it.
Oops. I meant to say: I've only been able to get this to work against Vista Ultimate SP2 and Windows Server 2008 SP2. I've not gotten this to work on Windows 7 RTM and Windows 2008 R2 RTM yet... and yes, I disable the firewalls to be sure.

I hope that Microsoft changes their product so Macs won't work with Exchange the same way that Apple changed iTunes to break compatibility with the Pre.
Instead call it e-zpark or whatever. After being in your parking spot for X amount of time, charge your account for it. That way, you don't pay for time not used and you also don't have to waste time feeding the meter. You also won't be dupped into feeding the meter when they're free (such as on the weekend or after hours). For spots with a time limit, they could increase the rate after you've reached the time limit and/or send you a txt message telling you that you're time was about up.
I personally use a Switched Port Analyzer (SPAN) port, port mirroring or monitor port. Different manufacturers call it different things but they all have the same purpose. It's been a LONG time since I've used a hub. Managed switches are far better because they don't degrade performance on the network and you can sniff all you want. In a home environment, it won't matter much, but you don't want to dumb down a multi-gigabit network in a corporate environment with a hub!
Snort can do a pretty darn good job at detecting this type of traffic unless it's encrypted. Emerging Threats keeps rulesets just for this purpose!
I've actually had to do this several times. I've "bought" new albums using the Zune marketplace. Then I went to try to burn it to a CD to listen to in the car, Zune wouldn't allow me to burn it. It said I didn't have the license and I had to buy it. When I went to my purchase history, it was right there in the list. I ended up just downloading via bittorrent and burning that way. Hopefully my marketplace purchase history will be valid in court if I ever get sued by the RIAA.

Nope, not for that reason. I am worried about you transferring company data to your home server though.
Exactly my thoughts and approach.

It doesn't, I have some web advertisements blocked using our corporate ProxySG from bluecoat.
Home users can use K9 free of charge. After all, it's all about protecting the kids!
