Ximian Connector comes to mind. As was already stated, Outlook Web is another (free) option, which is what I use when I'm forced to use Outlook for meetings (which I admit isn't often).
Also, in response to some of the other replies, a couple points. First, I know that it's the obvious answer to use Mozilla. Do you really think someone wasn't going to say it though? Second, like the parent, people complain "I need Outlook for work!" which is totally valid. However, in a corporate setting where you are required to use Outlook, I'd honestly hope your IT departmant as a server-side virus scanner running so these viruses and worms never even make it into your inbox. I'm talking about home users, who may not have decent antivirus software installed, etc. (which was why I said OE specifically).
Funny you mention that...I was playing a crappy online game they other day, and someone said something along the lines of "Well, I'm off to smoke a blunt" and one of the others in the room freaked out because they said "blunt." Apparently speaking of drugs was totally offensive to them.
I'm confused...which is it? 192Kbps or VBR? And if it's VBR, what quality?
I'm somewhat disapointed that out-of-print stuff isn't available through here though. They distribute albums on Epitaph Records, but none of the albums no longer produced are available. I think this would be a great way to let people get ahold of those old albums they can't buy any more, since it involves 0 cost for the label to provide the mp3s.
Emusic on the other hand offers at least some of the out of print albums in DRM-free mp3 form. Unfortunately, I tried their service once and found the quality of mp3s sorely lacking...one album I downloaded crackled audibly through the whole thing.
...was ballsy to walk up to the guy's house with a video camera and talk to the guy. Mike could have easily become pretty pissed off that someone was threatening to expose his scam.
I've wanted to get SnapStream's software for quite a while now, but unfortunately it seems that Leadtek the manufacturer of my tuner card (a Winfast 2000 XP) refuses to work with SnapStream to resolve compatability issues. The WinFast software is horribly buggy and generally poorly designed, so I'm frustrated, to say the least.
Once I have the money I'm going to buy one of the SnapStream bundles and get rid of this card for good. My recommendation is don't buy Leadtek.
The abstract doesn't say that they are trying to patent a virtual desktop switcher. They are trying to patent a way of displaying all virtual desktops to the user, as scaled down versions.
For example, if you are running 4 virtual desktops, and you indicate you want to see all your desktops, your screen would be seperated into 4 sections, each displaying a smaller version of each desktop complete with the apps that are running on them.
This is NOT the same thing as the Gnome/KDE applets that let you click to change desktops...
I've always hated how my second monitor becomes unusable during gameplay. I'd like nothing more than to be able to throw my TV app up on the second monitor so I could watch TV while waiting to respawn in Wolf: ET.
Disturbing as this is, a friend that has a blog has been getting referrer spam to candidates' webpages of all things.
If you're unfamiliar with the term, referrer spamming is when fake HTTP Referrer headers are used to make referrers show up in webserver logs so the webmasters think they are linked to by that site.
He was getting only porn spamming up until about a month ago, when the presidental candidate pages started showing up.
You're missing the point. Yes, you don't need to run Q3A at 300fps, but if this new card will run it that fast, then when the next generation of games come out that will make your current card bog down to 15fps, the new one will be able to play it.

I forgot to mention, the Sager was around $600US less than the Alienware.
A friend of mine recently bought a Sager 5680 and it's a beautiful desktop replacement. Not only does it run circles around every other one of our friends' desktops, but it was considerably cheaper than the equivalent Alienware. The truly amazing thing was that we found a picture of an Alienware in an issue of Maxim when they did a laptop comparison, and it was exactly the same machine as the Sager! (From what I understand, they use the same manufacturer.) The sole advantage to an Alienware is the ability to swap out video cards, something pretty much exclusive to them I believe.
Not only do we have a higher ratio of broadband users, but there are no restrictive service contracts, etc here. I remember back when I played Q3A online a lot, some of my friends down south were forced into 1 year contracts to be able to get DSL at home. I have cable, and I can cancel it any time I want, and it only costs about $45CDN/month, which is think is a pretty good deal.
I just can't wait for Rogers to follow Sympatico and up our upload caps by 50%!
Some Canadian registrars, such as Internic.ca offer a service called Privacy.ca that hides your registration information, so random people can't look up your info.
If it becomes a federal crime to lie in domain records, something similar could be implemented to protect those who want to remain (somewhat) anonymous.
Google whacked, but did not link to definitions for both your Googlefactors.
Perhaps one is misspelled; use the links above to check. However, Google does not link to every definition at dictionary.com. Sorry, but without that link you may not add to The Whack Stack.
I agree. My roommate bought this game, and we've had a blast playing it (although they made some poor choices for rules, such as how you have to get out of the "Emergency Room").
What version and what OS? I've had no problems whatsoever with Firebird in Windows or Gentoo, but in Debian it (and Mozilla) don't display all pages properly. At least once a day, Slashdot screws up and I have to reload the page a few times to get it to display properly.
Thats not 100% true...at least in my case, when I mouse over a link that is trying to use that vulnerability I get the fake URL and a non-displayable character "box", but you are partially right because the rest of the URL (from the @ on) does not show.
That's not a fair comparison. The competitors only had an hour to build. With Lego CAD software you can make much more complex models, but the fact that they came up with such interesting ideas off the tops of their heads and actually implemented them in such a short time is pretty impressive in my books.

Don't use Outlook/OE.
There are tons of other options out there that aren't vulnerable, such as Mozilla and Thunderbird.
Hahaha!

Because the DMCA says it's illegal for you to break the DVD encryption to copy it.

"...terminally crashy Gentoo."?
I ran gentoo as my regular desktop for months until I got sick having to reboot to play games, but never had it crash.

With a maximum speed of 10 feet/min, I don't think it would be avoiding any rockslides, period.

If you'd cared to look at the post you'd see that it was never modded down. The poster has super low karma, so he posts at -1.
