It was much easier to prevent this when most calls traversed the relatively closed TDM networks, but with IP-based calling, there is no definitive way of determining who originated the call. With only an IP address and a SIP header, which can be manipulated with ease, it's technically difficult to lock this stuff down.
If you accept this statement, then don't be surprised when companies don't want to train people. If you were the manager for a dept and need to interview then fully train someone only to see that "improved" worker immediately take their skills elsewhere, forcing you to start the process over, what would you do? I'd bet you'd wait and look for those people that other companies trained first. It make business sense.
I'm not condoning corporations actions in this equation, but it is what it is.
I know as of last month that Sprint didn't even have any WP7 on their handset roadmap, so unless they are planning to sell them retail only, they aren't really interested in them.
Maybe instead of flying over the midwest, you stop by and see that wind mills are all over the place. I'm in Iowa and live 5 miles away from a nuclear plant.
That smoke you are seeing? It's coming from Appalachia.
If these are company blackberrys then you are probably screwing up by telling people to back up their contact information. Many times IT departments are informed first, so that kind of information can not be backed up, particularly in cases of sales personnel or anyone who could take those contacts/emails to a competitor
Yes, but one would hope that any company allowing said laptop to connect to their company VPN has local policies/software in order to minimize the infection risk. Yes, split tunneling is a larger security risk, but those risks can be mitigated.
This is true and I every time I set up of a VPN for someone I mention this. That said, for many people, they are likely VPN'd in order to access certain files while needing access to the internet. Browsing through most company VPN connections is painfully slow and inefficient.
One of the stipulations the U of Texas required before joining the Big12 conference was that TV money was NOT split equally. You only get TV money when you are on TV. And guess who is on TV the most? UT.
Why the comments as if Iowa was some backwards unwired wasteland? Working in eastern Iowa, we have a number of excellent datacenters that have just as much capacity as elsewhere. Inquire about a rack in Cedar Falls, Iowa and compare it to Equinix in Chicago. Not even in the same ballpark. But in Cedar Falls, I'm still on Internap as well as connections to MAE West. With a much lower cost of business than some metro areas, I'm surprised more people haven't located here.

Actually Google getting added to the S&P 500 might save it from such a crash. By being included, it is held by tons of S&P mutual funds. That combined with the realtively low number of shares available, I would expect Google shares to stay in the 250-350 range for quite some time.
Make that a third. My dad brought it home and it took me about 2 weeks to realize what a mistake he had made. What a horrible machine. Proprietary everything and having to reset the cartridges constantly.
Amen to all of the things you stated. Just getting up and staring out the window for about 2-3 minutes helps me considerably. I can clear my head and then get back to work. Unfortunately, I can't open the windows(stupid office buildings).
I am easily distracted by stuff that passes through my peripheral vision, so in the few jobs I've had in a cube, I was constantly looking up. I'm just not able to cope with it.
My first guess would be that all machines are set to take their Netbios setting from the DHCP server, which by default is on. Netbios is very chatty and useless, unless you have some 16bit network apps that need it. I would look there first.
Websense is like any other piece of enterprise software. It's only as good as the people configuring it. I've deployed it and it has its uses.
I sat down with management and discussed what they was off-limits and what was deemed ok and what was grey area.
Websense allows for a lot of configuration, but I imagine many companies just deploy it and leave it stock.
Macromedia Contribute is a pretty good CMS app. I've used it for a few of my small clients who need to do minor updates. The learning curve is pretty small.

The only problem with bt.etree.org is unless you are a Phish or Grateful Dead fan, the selection of music is very limited. I've looked many times and seen very little else.
Some of you really under estimate what will kill a PC. A company I used to work for bought another company and sent me to do a once over of their systems.
They had a covered dock area for loading and all the offices were ventilated from the warehouse. Diesel fumes from the trucks trickled in and made all the vents pitch black. And inside the PC, they were completely black. They had been running the same PCs for 5 years with no more problems than anyone else has.
Bottom line, unless there are liquids around, you will probably be fine with just cleaning it out every once in a while.
The density of it must be determined. If it's a solid rock then a bomb may divert it, but some asteroids look like swiss cheese. A nuclear bomb even detonated near it would blow it into a million smaller pieces which would then would cause it to rain large rocks.

I didn't miss anything. It was Sprint branded which means it's sold in Sprint retail only, not their MNVO resellers.

They don't work in cold locations. I've got 2 outside my garage that went thru this last winter and sub zero degree weather just fine.

Ever heard of buyer beware. If you aren't smart enough to have the car checked by someone else, you get what you deserve.
Hello and welcome to city hall. Courts dates to the left, marriages to the right. Be sure to get a list of days events on the table.
Says you. For $25/month I can either get Packet 8 or I can get Qwest. Only difference is where the packets go.

I'm assuming they run windows here. Put the proxy IP in and don't them give admin rights. Viola! No getting around the proxy.
