Someone mentioned this in another discussion a few weeks ago, but I think it bears repeating for those who run Windoze and might have missed or dismissed it. Popup Killer works quite well. Though it does occasionally miss a popup or close a window I actually wanted open (depending on the settings,) its benefits outweigh its drawbacks IMHO.
It's not even just pr0n sites that are bad (though they're probably the worst.) wwf.com is pretty bad for popups.
Yes, I know it's fake.
Stop me if you've heard this one...

That reminds me....
What do you call 100,000 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean?
The difference is you can stop being a hillbilly by taking a bath, getting rid of the old POS pickup truck, stop sleeping with relatives (and your shotgun), moving out of your trailer and into a house, etc.
"Nigger" is a term that narrow minded people apply to other people who happen to be black.
Furthermore, there is no known link between blacks and banjos.
I think articles on Slashdot should be posted with Google cache links. Can the Slashdot Effect hamper the Almighty Google???

"The fear factor of Doom"
I dunno... UT scared the hell outta me the other night. Someone made a custom CTF map (Project-X is the name) with a 'skaarjlord' lurking about in it. I turned around to see what was hitting me from behind and all I saw was an outline and these glowing red eyes. My reaction was literally, "OMG WTF is that!!!" Then it wasted me.
Last thing I expected in a CTF map. I think we need more things we don't expect.
Of course. It makes no sense to learn a little bit and use a stable OS.
The time you take to learn a little bit about Linux will amount to far less time you'll waste with system crashes, forced product "activation," virii and who knows what else.
Off-topic, but you've got no email addy listed How are you running Windows Media Player under wine? What version? What documentation? I've never gotten Media Player to run badly under wine. Got a good URL for that?

You're absolutely correct... but I'd love for the DOJ to have ideas like that.
if they refuse to disclose their method for gathering their evidence, it should be declared inadmissible.
But then again, IANAL.
Popup Killer is freeware. It is neither crippled, nor nagware. They take donations from those who wish to donate.

Pardon my ignorance, but why do we all "need" to start using devfs?
What are the advantages?
Got a link?
Count me as well (and probably whoever modded you up)

What the hell is a player hater?
Sorry, I don't speak jive.

I wasn't aware that Diana Ross had anything against Microsoft.

Old Billy Gates would just have a heyday with that one, wouldn't he?
He already claims that Linux is a virus.
Hell I love Debian.
However that doesn't make your post any less funny.
"for every 100 windows/solaris users i know, there is one linux user"
Yes of course. That explains why we're all worried about Sun's monopoly.
Furthermore, if Linux came pre-installed and someone wanted to install Windows (God knows why) they'd have to use what?
FDISK!!!!
Of course.

I always knew M$ had a lot of nerve, but OMG.
Someone should quote her in M$'s antitrust proceedings.
(Vivek is a woman's name, right?)
So submit it. It's very interesting.
Vibrate mode works well... except that I jumped three feet the first time my phone did it.
You are sick, as are the idiots that mod you up.

Apology accepted, Captain Gates.
