The lead character in Genesis II is named Dylan Hunt. So is the one in Planet Earth, which seems to be the same script with a different cast (apart from Majel of course). Good ol' Gene Recycleberry;-)
Arrgh!!! For heavens sake, if shipping 1100 machines to VA Tech could actually push back delivery for at least 10 times as many (I bet more like 40 times) for about a month, we'ld be in for a long wait. People, please grow some brains.
Their code is not "being exploited", it still does exactly what they intended. It sends "back" an attachment they think contains a virus. I don't know what bad reason(s) they have, but like I said, there is no good one.
The fact that they simply couldn't imagine that the From: header could be forged (yeah, right, where have they been the last years, this was hardly the first virus to do so, let alone single assholes doing it by hand) doesn't excuse that. Let's assume for a moment that the header isn't false.
The virus scanner finds something suspicious - OK. Blocking or reporting it to the user - OK. Reporting it to the original sender - OK. Sending him back the attachment - what for? Isn't the name of the attachment together with the email headers enough to identify the infected file?
So why send the file back? Punitive mailbombing? Childish, and when only sending it once also inefective. To test wether the sender has working virus detection? To make sure he gets infected again? To generate traffic because you have shares in ISPs or backbone providers?
There is no good reason to send sombody something you think is harmful. If you write software that does it - even if a third party has to activate that "feature" - you sure as hell have the intent to do that.
As for calling it terrorism, tell it to Ashcroft. Interesting that Ashcroft mentioned computer viruses in conection with "power grids, power generation".
Well, it's close to being the same music. But the difference becomes larger with time - the quality of the recording on the tape degrades each time you play it and over time. Unless you damage the CD (or it damages itself), the music on it stays the same for AFAIK decades. So you probably never have to re-buy a CD, while it was quite common that you had to re-buy a record or tape if you played it often.
Well, what exactly is the original of a product that only exists in a digital form - like an iTMS song or an eBook, and unlike e.g. the pits on a CD - and how can you sell that and only that? The problem with laws is that they are written with words, and those words have to be followed, not the intentions or the spirit.
I wasn't talking about people who wanted to go from New Brunswick to Sacramento, I was talking about people going from NY to LA. And they would pay much more than double the price.

No, its from 1st of October. Damned mixed date formats.

I was actually going for this, which you probably never even considered watching ;-)

No problem if you don't use your ethernet as 10BASE-T.
... make that dshuhdshuhdshuh-sound when he lifts the trucks with it?
Rule 4 for story submissions: don't post anything about inventions not made in America (non-francophone Canada counts with reluctance) ;-)
Using the LZW algorithm for text analysis / author identification.
Mrmm, I don't remember the Wall of Cheese Graters from 1984 ...

Diesel cars with particle filters are the answer to 4.) They actually make the air cleaner.
And the fact that the G5 is 64bit means you can have a DVD's worth of data in RAM. Eat this, Gelsinger ;-)

Since many even return the offending atachment - they are knowingly spreading the virus. Which makes them terrorists.

You can'ta fool me! There ain't no Sanity Clause!
Only a couple of back injuries due to hard landing.
Four times faster than on his P4.
That's 200 MPH (almost completely) horizontal speed without rapid deceleration vs. 15 MPH vertical with a thud.
Yes, re-entry with a capsule is completly safe.

When a cooling system fails, you have other problems than some bit-errors.
