i work closely with some major studios, and get to hear them gripe from time to time about how titles get leaked and domain names get reg'd before they have a chance to reg 'em. why do you think so many movie websites have a 'movie' at the end?
look around, there are getting to be fewer and fewer that just have the title of the movie in the domain name.
if you have that many httpd requests that it's bogging down your disk subsystem, wtf are you doing running netscape or any web browser on that machine for that matter? i mean, i can see having to use IE occasionally if you're talking about an NT machine, but hard-core servers (such as the ones where the disk is being maxxed out by the httpd) really shouldn't be running something that eats up as much resources as a web browser (well, maybe lynx, but definitely not netscape)...
just my 2 cents...

what i've noticed is that it's not drivers or anything else that keeps the scsi cards in the machines i work on from coming up fast, it's waiting for the hard drives to spin up... that's why it's so much faster when you do a soft boot as opposed to a hard boot... just fyi;)

you probably can, you just can't call 'em Ewoks without permission.
my word isn't gospel and shouldn't be taken as legal advice (IANAL).

you think you're the first one with that idea?

your conversion formula is wrong.
tf=tc*1.8 + 32
not that it really makes that much of a difference... 932 vs. 957.6.

actually, you can change your shell in win9x (dunno about NT)... take a look at litestep...
i'm not saying there's a _lot_ of choice, but it is actually possible.
