    but a pseudonym has some reputation, you cannot spam with your slashdot nickname without getting bad karma. anonymous posting is another thing, of course.

    is it possible to run prism (xul+js) with a newer xulrunner, so new html5 and other stuff works? the functionality of prism is pretty much finished, but it needs to use a newer gecko.

    I imagine the website may run on a privileged level, because the option should point to a .xul file which can do a lot more than a webpage.
    sorry, it seems hard to google for "firefox --chrome", all i get are pages comparing firefox and (google) chrome.

  22. Re:Computer fraud? on Advertising Network Caught History Stealing · · Score: 0

    no.
    If you run a virus, it was your intend to execute it.
    But if the virus does not do whatever it advertised to do, but destroys all your files, its not your fault.

    if an ad scans your history instead of just displaying an ad, its not your fault. You accepted the ad, but the history-scanning is a trojan horse behaviour of the ad.

    no problem. the next step is, the custom roms just fake theres no data connection. or intercept the ads with transparent fake-ads.

    you cannot win there. just look at the companies fighting piracy.
