  1. Re:The list, for those who don't care about pictur on Best Free Open Source Software For Windows · · Score: 1

    Also as ClamWin as no on-access scanning, I wouldn't recommend it to your average Windows luserrs. I think their was an opensource on-access scanner for Windows which uses clamav-virus-information, but don't remember the name. But the clamav-virus-information isn't as good for desktop-machines as most other offerings. It's however prettty good for mailservers. I'd recommend to any mailserver admin.

  2. Re:lolz on Goodbye Apple, Hello Music Production On Ubuntu · · Score: 0

    Actually, no1 really cares about the desktop anymore, an example:

    http://www.itworld.com/open-source/72634/whats-linux-desktop-mean-when-we-dont-know-what-desktop-anymore

    So maybe it'll never happen, you could also say, it has already happend for many, which is true.

  3. Use Linux-VServer/OpenVZ or LXC on Entropy Problems For Linux In the Cloud · · Score: 2, Informative

    Those just use process-namespaces and the same kernel and you are done with it.

  4. Re:Much as we hate TPM here on /. on Bootkit Bypasses TrueCrypt Encryption · · Score: 1

    Hardly effective, you could still install a keylogger on on the keyboard or record the sounds the person is typing on the keyboard.

  5. Re:Do I need to prepare? on Bootkit Bypasses TrueCrypt Encryption · · Score: 1

    Some one will just move your disk to an other machine and replace the true-crypt software with one that doesn't do any checking...

    If you stored something in TPM you might have a chance, but if your computer brakes, you'll probably also loose the content of the disk (backups can prevent huge problems with that ofcourse).

  6. Re:Just another day at the office? on CentOS Administrator Reappears · · Score: 1

    My guess is the CentOS-folk have routine meetings, but he is usually not present, now he was.

  7. Re:So what? on Windows 7 vs. Windows XP On a Netbook · · Score: 1

    I noticed the hardware of the netbook they used in the article is also a bit more beefy then 'the original netbooks', especially RAM.

  8. Re:I don't get it... on Stopping Spam Before It Hits the Mail Server · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Many have found, if your outside the US, blocking US is much more effective then blocking China and Russia.

  9. Re:I/O is random? What have you been smoking? on Are RAID Controllers the Next Data Center Bottleneck? · · Score: 1

    Hmm, maybe I don't even want to know the pricetag on that

  10. Re:DNSSEC on Network Solutions Suffers Massive Data Breach · · Score: 1

    > But with DNSSEC, I believe we'd all be stuck with one per TLD.

    Why do you think it's different as they way it's handled now ?

  11. Re:DNSSEC on Network Solutions Suffers Massive Data Breach · · Score: 2, Funny

    Good thing they are going to handle the root signing process for DNSSEC as we can all see, they know what they are doing.

  12. Re:Summary? on Why OpenBSD's Release Process Works · · Score: 1

    If I'm right, their are definitly people ('senior developers') Theo does put trust in to atleast tell him to have an other look.

  13. Re:Nice test for the open source community on Firefox 3.5's First Vulnerability "Self-Inflicted" · · Score: 1

    I wasn't all that serious.

  14. Re:I had this idea on New Binary Diffing Algorithm Announced By Google · · Score: 1

    What is cool about this text is, you could claim it for anything and still look smart. ;-)

  15. Re:Rsync on New Binary Diffing Algorithm Announced By Google · · Score: 1

    Rsync is usefull when you don't know anything about the data, if you actually know something about, their is a better way to do it.

  16. Re:Nice test for the open source community on Firefox 3.5's First Vulnerability "Self-Inflicted" · · Score: 1

    I have some doubts about that.

  17. Re:OOh on Windows 7 Clean Install Only In Europe · · Score: 2, Informative

    I can imagine something else, if your profile is on D: (like all the other data) you don't loose the HKEY_CURRENT_USER so a lot of settings should be preserved.

  18. Re:I don't know... on YouTube Phasing Out Support For IE6 · · Score: 1

    Actually IE5.5 is the least buggy IE, IE6 is probably the worst, it's very unpredictable in how it will render/break webpages.

  19. Re:Market share on YouTube Phasing Out Support For IE6 · · Score: 1

    A chair ?

    That would be ironic.

  20. Re:Appliances are the way to go! on Outlook Inertia the Main Factor Holding Business From Google Apps · · Score: 1

    Only if Yahoo would sell it, because Yahoo bought it some time ago. And buying Yahoo wasn't something Google was allowed to do.

  21. Re:Too much in too little time on Outlook Inertia the Main Factor Holding Business From Google Apps · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I think this is, because a lot of their services are offered free and they are looking for more profitable businessmodels. Advertisments is their only really profit machine at this point.

  22. Re:good... on Korean DDoS Bots To Self-Destruct · · Score: 1

    No, no, no, I mean in Asia most software is pirated, if I'm not mistaken, so it's not a sale for Microsoft in that case.

  23. Re:Really that bad of a thing? on Korean DDoS Bots To Self-Destruct · · Score: 1

    That's why the system should be setup to make regular backups of the home-directory of the user :-)

  24. Re:Are you crazy? on RAID Trust Issues — Windows Or a Cheap Controller? · · Score: 1

    rsync has patches for inuse files.

    Mainframes have 3 levels of virtualization, why do you run all these programs in the same memory space ?
