The only thing interesting about this anonymous coward post is that he spends time turning the FUD-guns on Groklaw. Could it be that someone doesn't like a site that explains things and cuts though the smoke-screen?
"Both sides have merit! Pay no attention to that site pulling back the curtain! SCO is intelligent and wealthy! Buy Windows 2003! Try the grape kool-aid!"
The referer header is extremely useful for detecting problems like other sites deep-linking to graphics. (Either for fraud or off-loading bandwidth.) Detecting that the sudden spike in access is being refered from Slashdot is useful for finding something to hide behind before the server explodes.
I hope you don't mind if some administrators consider whether or not to lock out people who don't provide valid headers.
My peeve is against those who use spreadsheets as spreadsheets, without understanding the limitations of their models.
As soon as spreadsheets came in, we got Savings and Loan disasters, junk bonds, leveraged buyouts, etc, from people who could do wonderful calculations by themselves without anyone telling them that their numbers and models were really really stupid. I doubt we've learned our lesson yet. (Enron, Worldcom,..)
"Make the numbers look better!" "Should I use a different font?"
For proper effect, you then need a slow aerial zoom-out of a line of waiting telegram messengers. A long line of messengers. A very long line of messengers. A very very.. well, you get the idea.
According to the stories in Gamespot,
Ananova,
and Breaking
News the 40 million plus selling virtual pet is coming back. The
Tamagotchi Plus will have a few changes this time around: better screen,
more animation sequences, five times more capacity. The big add-on is
wireless. Now Tamagotchi will interact will each other and be able to
exchange gifts, make friends, have eating contests, or get married and
create offspring. (No word on Tamagotchi sex or divorce yet.) Bandai
will even have machines in a fast food chain to allow downloading new
accessories. (Japan only at first, of course.)
Since they IR network and transfer data objects, I'm working on an infectious Tamagotchi plague. It's for the children's sake.
They basically say their business model is to crapflood the patent office and see who the can fuck.
They're pr0n spammers. They're experts at crapflooding. And in relation to my current sig, I think it's obvious that they just look at the pr0n and don't actually get any.
I had hopes that SPEWS was listing their 66.28.153.14 IP, but it's a level 0 listing. The Wayback machine only has the one copy of their site. Loads and loads of references on news.admin.net-abuse.* that peg them as spammers back to 2001.
Oddly enough, I couldn't find any records of an incorporation under Ideaflood Inc, but I'm not sure how good the sites I was checking are. I wanted to get a list of their directors. (Gee, maybe a dodgy Nevada corporation, what a shock!)
Doesn't Word also save a GUID in the file that contains the MAC of the network card of the computer where it was created/edited? Something juicy could probably be done with that, but it would take a lot more work.
After you buy from a sidewalk vendor, you notice that you bought something with slightly name, like "X-Boks". Still, I'm pretty happy with my Roleks watch.
I must have missed the terraforming in Bush's Mars promises. I think we have some time before the crews are ready to roll in which to look for life. However, in case any Martians object, we'd put the plans on display. (I suggest Grover's Mill, New Jersey, where they're sure to see it.)

Maybe all the pro-SCO posts keep coming from anonymous cowards at IP address 216.250.128.12?
I hope you don't mind if some administrators consider whether or not to lock out people who don't provide valid headers.
So even they didn't believe in using Outlook for storing contacts and phone numbers?

Hmm... I wonder if you could do a virtual processor chip in Excel? (Start with 8 bit.) A bunch of registers, a state machine, 64k table of "ram".
So now he's frying for his crimes?
Fast boat, plane tickets, new passports...

And I believe the courts finally agreed after a long long patent fight.

The spammer may not own it any more, but after he's had his big fat greasy behind on the seats, it'll never be clean again.
If the spammer was Rodona Garst or Laura Betterly, I foresee a problem. Besides, even when possible, they'd have to be Hell's own air fresheners.

Yeah, I'm looking. I think there's prior art for that too.

Ah, bonus! Looks what's running in near them:
Pr0n spammers. Oh yeah, I'm sure they have a huge R&D department.Ideaflood can have this one too, which has probably "existed" longer than their patent.
archive.org agrees with you. (Just don't click on the links of the link. You were warned!)

Four packets of crisps? You'll spoil your supper!

What do you get with the commercial version of Qt? If you ship a product to customers, do they need a commercial version too?
And they're not even trying to use ActiveX! Serious sites like booble.com at least make a token effort as do some of the Slashdot ads.
