This problem seems universal regardless of the hardware you have. Nope. This problem does not affect my work computer (Athlon 64 3000/3com 3c905 NIC/Realtek Audio). It might be because I have a halfway decent NIC that handles some of the network load itself.
The 6500 is a $70,000 switch with a $10 Compact Flash memory card which is too small to hold anything but the copy of IOS it's shipped with. Fortunately, Compact Flash memory cards with enough space (16MB) to hold new IOS releases are available for only around $399.99 from Cisco.

So let me get this straight. The internet can survive multiple nuclear strikes, but not some hillbilly with a gun on Ohio?;)
"...when the theory is proven false or exceedingly unlikely via new data they merely form the now known data with the same premise..." So what major part of the theory of evolution has been proven false or exceedingly unlikely?
I noticed that too. Gore and Kerry both seemed to give the feeling that they were talking down to you when they spoke. Clinton and Bush both gave the feeling that they were talking to/with you when they spoke.
My Dad was a radio DJ for many years in the 60's through the 70's, and he said they played the music from records. A brand new record with a high quality turntable will produce almost no clicks or pops, so as long as they didn't play the records too much, clicks wouldn't be noticeable over the air. A record would only be good for a relatively small number of plays (30 maybe?) after which they would be tossed out (or at least not played over the air any more). In order to get a few more plays out of the records, he said he would often "float" the record. Floating a record meant spreading a thin layer of rubbing alcohol around the track you were playing. The needle would "float" over the layer of alcohol and reduce the number of clicks/pops. I actually tried it a couple of years ago when transferring some of my vinyl records over to digital and it helped.
3. The likelihood the kiosk in question ran windows is high given the compromise. Because other operating systems are so much more resistant to attackers with physical access, right?
...compare it to a clean vinyl record at least... Stop buying into the myth that vinyl is superior to CD. CD's have more dynamic range, and a higher frequency response than vinyl. If you want the distortion...err...I mean "warmth" that vinyl gives you, you can always insert it into your digital recordings using any half-decent digital sound editor.
...but will at least accept criticism from the vinyl camp. You shouldn't. The vinyl camp's argument is a product of nostalgia-driven emotion.
I can only assume the 3rd party applications you're speaking of would be the websites that are running on IIS. No. I'm talking about dlls and executables which run inside of application pools. Examples would things like jakarta, servelet exec, perl or php. I fail to see how these third party applications misbehaving are the fault of IIS.
MS didn't make IIS more stable, they gave more process isolation capability and the ability for a watcher process to orphan a thread and start a new one when one did become unstable. So you're saying that Microsoft's is supposed to make third party applications more stable via IIS?
"Well, I'd say IIS6 hangs just as much as 5, but with the application pool controls you have more options for IIS to restart itself automatically.
No. With application pools, you restart the application pool instead of IIS.
"Not really a "solution" to the problem"
Of course it's not a solution. But then what you described is not the purpose of application pools in IIS.
I remember very well IIS5 being taken down completely by misbehaving apps, which in turn would take down every single website hosted on the server. Since I've moved these apps to IIS6 and segregated them into Application pools the "problem apps" no longer affect other apps or sites on the system, much less take down IIS.
After suffering for years with crappy apps on IIS5, and moving them over to IIS6, I laugh at anyone who claims IIS6 is not more stable than IIS5.
We recently installed a massive blade center/SAN and converted all of our servers over to ESX. It has allowed us all but eliminate the dreaded "single purpose Windows server", because testing is so much easier and faster.
I'll take plain text (ok XML) Actually, IIS's configuration is stored in XML, and you can edit it by hand instead of using the GUI if you really want to.
"We would still have massive IT infrastructures, it just would have happened slightly later at the hands of some other company. Perhaps Apple or maybe some other completely different company that didn't make it because Microsoft showed up."
And because that same idiots would be operating that IT infrastructure, the exact same problems would occur.
Slashdot Mirror
The statement "relies on ignorance and short sightedness of the unwashed masses" paints a much broader stroke than what you are talking about.

And in typical slashdot fashion, anti-windows advocate gets the the +2 mod, despite being proven completely wrong by two separate posters.

Then I don't believe you.
Google shows no reference of IIS 5.1 ever being available Windows 2000. Feel free to point me to some reference that shows otherwise though.
5.0 (which shipped initially with 2000) couldn't, but 5.1 (a later upgrade) could
IIS 5.0 has always supported virtual hosts. IIS 5.1 comes with Windows XP and was never released for Windows 2000.
Give me a break.

I remember IIS5 hanging from time to time, but IIS6 is MUCH better in that regard.
