Have you checked out FlashMX Remoteing? It allows you to write thin client applications in Flash, and connect them to a remote ColdFusionMX server. Oh yah, and it communicates via HTTP
How many keys do you have for your office? Exactly one.... and a professional locksmith who's properly key'd all the locks so that each person has only one key but can only open the doors they need.
ummm 2 major? lets see.....
1) Apache: not written by them, not enabled by default, and according to the buzz on misc@obsd no one seems to be able to get the expoit to work.
2) OpenSSH: used by how many *nixs? So this isn't just an OpenBSD problem. As well, it's an exploit that's defeated by the -current version of OpenBSD.
hmmmmm, doesn't seem so bad to me
An old machine I bought from a local school district had a device in it called a 'Wobbler' which had a light sensor, a motion sensor, and a little piezo electric speaker which could be heard (loudly) from well down the hall. If you open the case or try to move it you set it off, and it's battery life was 48hrs of alarm.... I'd give up on stealing a pc before i carried that little thing around.
Does this mean we're going to have a/. article on how someone hacked linux onto a traffic control system?:)

I'd like to say this is uncommon, but after working at a computer store for almost 4 years I'd have to say this situation occurs every few days.
The problem is that so many people try to run scams where they buy a game, burn it and then try to exchange it as defective. Basicly the way it normally works is to exchange the game for one of the same title, if it fails to install and run properly on a demo machine. If it fails to work we would normally test the new copy to make sure it work before we send them off. If it does the same thing again, normally we'd allow an exchange for a differant title.
You seem like the kind of customer who drove me nuts while I was in sales (the ones who believes that there could never be a problem in your setup @ home, even though it works for me)
When was the last time you heard a report of a CodeRed exploit causeing death? or that MS knew of an exploit and tryed to cover it up and settle out of court rather than fixing the prob?
These are the reasons that software is differant than most other consumer products. Software for military, or other high threat systems already has guidelines to be followed. Microsoft's programs may be like that cheap vcr from walmart (it breaks often), but never kills anyone. So trying to compare it to Ford/Firestone is laughable.
Actually most os's have memory managment, which prevents tromping over other processes memory. As well the location that an operationing system allocates such memory will be differant everytime it is executed..... therefore it is virtually impossible to write a cookie cutter exploit (ala script kiddie) because unless you have full access tothe proccess table and memory you have no way of knowing where to overwrite. Sorry to burst your bubble.
You realize that this is not a keygen for product activation, but a simple app that spits out cd-keys that will let you install. Windows Product Activation works by taking the CD-Key from your copy of WinXP and 'unique' hardware key (based off your NIC/MB/HDD/etc), and generating a 3rd key which activates your copy of WinXP. This tool you posted is useless.
That sounds exactly like one of my favorite teachers in high school. His favorite saying was "50% of what I tell you are outright lies, and the other half just hasn't been proven wrong yet." His philosophy was too teach us how to question what we are taught and think for our selves.
No one is being forced to use the product, and if you don't want to pay for it (and have the intelligence to create it yourself), then actually build it yourself rather than pirating a copy.
Actually that is simply a choice of flash/no-flash. The software itself is designed for BeOS, and they sell a complete kit including a Sony Vaio notebook, which dual-boots BeOS and Win2k. Currently (as of the last time I read their site) they have software for BeOS only, but are working on a version for Linux, and MacOS.
Hmm I think you're missing part of your responsibility with Open Source Software. By recommmending to wait for a final release version you aren't contributing to the development process by helping to find bugs. Although most users can't program, most should be at least able to beta testing on their favorite free software
To your last question:
Q. Are there issues with power strips and Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS) systems?
A. No. Extensive testing has shown no problems associated with the use of power strips and UPS systems.
If you would have actually read the article you would realise that it is case 3..... Used to be able to type but can not anymore due to a RSI.
I can't believe how many people post w/out a clue of what the story is actually about
why would you care? If they send you a PGP encrypted message they have encrypted it with your public key, therefore you should have no problem reading it. The only problem is replying to it and still maintaining encryption
Acutally under Win2k all PCI devices share 1 IRQ by default
in my machine this means my video, sound nic, scsi card, and tv-tuner all use IRQ 11, eventhough i still have 4 open IRQs
While this sounds like a a good idea, how well would a CAD program, or any other modeling package, work saving a 3D wireframe model in ASCII, HMTL, PDF, or even Latex?
What really needs to be done is that any file format (whether it is proprietary on not) must be fully documented so other applications can open and modify them.
no matter how badly Outlook wants it to
And this has WHAT to do with Outlook? If Symantec is scanning EXEs inside of ZIP files, then you're still vulnerable.
Have you actually used an ipod, or are you simply repeating random crap that you've heard on /.
The ipod can play mp3s, aac, and apple lossless (if not more). Please know what you're talking about before you post random crap.

yes hijack microsofts dns, and get their signed as valid Microsoft code. Hmmm doesn't quite seem as simple.

all i can say to the comment 'You 36 year old bald headed fag', is if he's a fag, what's he doing dating Natalie Portman...

Mind if i ask how you got those keys active and configured? I have looked for a reasonablt tutorial or how-to and keep coming up with a blank

I'd be one to agree with you given't the domain name: xxx.lanl.gov
