    "Thing is, that does sound crazy to me. It sounds compulsive and anal retentive"

    What a good AV and firewall whats wrong with that (something I would install on any system i worked on) maybe some of the other stuff is a little overboard but geez

    "You know what I do? I install a modern operating system and pretty much leave it alone."

    Yeap sorry don't consider this good enough you are just running on luck I have seen unpatched Win 98 and Win Xp systems with no firewall or AV that had been online not be infected with anything yet this was not the norm

    "not engaging in high-risk behavior"

    Your best bet along with at least a good AV software and a third party firewall or set up win 7 + firewall for outbound connections too.

  3. Save Page as on 'Eraser' Law Will Let California Kids Scrub Online Past · · Score: 1

    While perhaps good in concept, once something is put online there is a good chance somebody will save a copy, even if protections are put in place against saving. Enough Said

    Hooray for Laserdisc

  5. Re:Yahoo Had already screwed up on Users Revolt Over Yahoo Groups Update · · Score: 1

    Hmm that reminds me of TUBEing site that YOU might can help me remember. They made certain changes that made users unhappy and had a similar attitude. Now only if i could remember what this site was and I also forgot the name of the company that owns it. Maybe i need to google it although i might have to LOAD MORE (like a 100 times) to find out what it was Hmmmm.

  6. Yahoo Had already screwed up on Users Revolt Over Yahoo Groups Update · · Score: 1

    Yahoo already screwed up their groups a long time ago. Hmm Could it be that they are trying to get rid of them... Like they already have did with some other parts of the old web

  7. How are they tracking these books on Amazon Forbids Crossing State Lines With Rented Textbooks · · Score: 1

    If these are textbooks how are they tracking them gps, rfid, ip address when rented (the most stupid way of all) or is this just some stupid rule that can be easily gotten around (Take the books where needed than later ship them back from the original state)
