  1. Self Limiting? on Stealware: Kazaa et al Stealing Link Commissions · · Score: 4, Interesting

    One would think that the online stores would get wize to this:

    "Last week, Amazon cut off affiliate payments to Morpheus, one site that employs the shopping software, said an online executive. Coldwater Creek, an online clothing store, has also blocked Morpheus."

  2. More technical, but very useful.. on The Best of Windows Open Source Software? · · Score: 1

    Wget - wget.sunsite.dk I use it almost every day.

    Analog - www.analog.cx Web server log parser. An absolutely essential tool for a webmaster.

  3. Slashdot Editors: on Beware of Fake Monkey Automatons · · Score: 1

    Slashdot Editors = Room full of monkeys pounding on typewriters.

    Hope this is what they do to the bad ones :-)

  4. What if the Author reads /. on ChronoSpace · · Score: 1

    Talk about a dose of humble pie...

    My mom always said "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all."

    I hate it when my mom is right.

  5. Re:Our server has been compromised 8 times in a we on MS Exec: 'Our products just aren't engineered for security' · · Score: 1

    What ISAPI filters do you have loaded?
    IIS can be made *much* more secure by eliminating all of the ISAPI filters that you don't need. Look in the properties for the web server click the Master Properties Edit button. Find the Home Directory tab, click the Configuration button, and remove all application mappings other then ASP.DLL. Double check that the delete has propogated down to the default web site and your web site, and you should be much better.
    The asp.dll (IFAIK) doesn't have any remote exploits.
    The other suggestions of moving the WWWRoot are very helpful. Also make sure you are running URLScan. I wouldn't even turn on an IIS server without it. http://www.microsoft.com/Downloads/Release.asp?Rel easeID=33961

  6. WiFi? on New Small Form Factor PC Reviewed · · Score: 1

    What's the solution if you want 802.11b on a SFF system? Do you use the one PCI slot for a PCI-based WiFi card?

    Does no good for cases without a PCI slot. Are there any SFF mobo manufacturers looking at on-board wifi?

  7. Re:Programming Languages on 2002 ICFP Programming Contest · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I guess you can't do it in VB :-)
