Recent versions of Putty can connect via proxies. Using that, SSH connections may be possible even if there is a restrictive firewall. I used this several times.
I am pretty sure that Habeas is against filtering mails marked with their headers. The only reason, why Habeas makes money is, because their customers pay for a higher probability to get their mails through.
If some percentage of mail servers block mails, because they contain the Habeas mark, there is no reason for a customer to pay for maybe even a higher danger of beeing blocked than without.
As I already mentioned, I did not want to pretend that the whitelist and the copyright issues are the same. I just wanted to make clear Habeas' attitude against filtering.
Sure. I just wanted to make clear HABEAS' attitude against spam filtering.
There's nothing to stop you filtering based on the header's existence.
My interpretation is, that you may not check against the exact headers. Because for this, you must have a copy of the headers for your spam checker. This may (IANAL) be a copyright infringement. It probably is possible, however, to check for some part of it, not containing the haiku (^X-Habeas-SWE.*)
Sounds like a phone book, with no creative expressive content. Hence, no copyright.
I am sure, this varies from country to country - I am from Germany. IIRC, some years ago, a company took the german phone books and put them on a CD (after typing them in in China). A court ruled this as illegal.
No, I'm not. Of course, the whitelist and the headers are not the same, but this does not invalidate my point. You may not be allowed to use the Headers for filtering. _In addition_ Habeas wants to prevent people from filtering. So they won't give you a license to use their mark for filtering. The "HABEAS INDIVIDUAL LICENSING AGREEMENT" does not cover filtering, but only _sending_ marked mail.
Note that using the Habeas Headers to filter out such mail may be a copyright infringement, too.
See also the following Paragraph of the "HABEAS WHITELIST LICENSING AGREEMENT":
Use of the Habeas Whitelist, or the data contained in the Habeas Whitelist, for the purpose of blocking, rejecting, or otherwise failing to deliver email coming from IP addresses listed on the Habeas Whitelist is expressly prohibited.
I really like Map 24. They don't show images embedded in a HTML page, but they have a Java applet (optionally full screen, rubberband zoom into arbitrary reagions, measure distances,...) with really cool navigation features. Finding directions is not as good, however. Try it out.
Unfortunately they only have map data for western Europe. That's not a limitation, for me, but it probably is for americans:-)
I investigated a little bit, how secure MSCHAPv2 really is. I found a detailed analysis on this topic from the same people that did the MSCHAPv1 analysis and discovered those security holes. It seems that MSCHAPv2 really is better than v1:
Microsoft has improved PPTP to correct the major security weaknesses described in [SM98]. However, the fundamental weakness of the authentication and encryption protocol is that it is only as secure as the password chosen by the user.
So, what does that mean for the average user? Does this make the MSCHAPv2 authentication mechanism less secure than other password based protocols - let's say ssh?
Surely this "2" has happend on a weekend, right?

Actually, it is :-)
You can package the SUN JDKs yourself very easily with j2se-package. Works very well for me. It has not been updated yet for 1.5, however.

No need to be offensive.

In the comment you replied to, I was not talking about the white list, but only about the warrant mark.

Of course. But without agreeing to the license you cannot use their whitelist.
So - in analogy - downloading MP3s from the net and just playing them for me would also be legal?
I don't think so.

That's today. It will point to this article, tomorrow.
