Select Default Web Interface
Although you can use any POP/IMAP compatible email client with MyRealBox, many users prefer to use a web browser interface. MyRealBox provides two web "skins" or interfaces.

Re: Anti-terrorism legislation
In its first of several expected major regulatory
responses to terrorism, Congress today enacted and the President
will sign imminently the Uniting and Strengthening America by
Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct
Terrorism ("USA PATRIOT") Act of 2001 ("Act"). The Act takes
effect immediately when signed by the President. Provisions
likely to have a significant impact on colleges and universities
are summarized below, organized by the institutional office or
function primarily affected. If particular issues of
interpretation arise, institutions should consult their legal
counsel.
REGISTRAR; FOREIGN STUDENT OFFICE
_ Privacy of student records. Amends the Family Educational
Rights and Privacy Act ("FERPA") to permit educational
institutions to disclose education records to federal law
enforcement officials without student consent in some
circumstances:
_ By certifying that "specific and articulable facts" support
the request, a U.S. Assistant Attorney General or a higher-ranking
official may obtain a court order that requires an
educational institution to turn over education records
considered relevant to a terrorism investigation.
_ Institutions do not violate FERPA by responding to such an
order without student consent..HOGAN &HARTSON L.L..
Memorandum to Sheldon Steinbach and Terry Hartle
October 25, 2001
Page 2
_ The institution need not make a record of the disclosure,
as FERPA ordinarily requires. (The U.S. Attorney General,
after consulting the Secretary of Education, is to issue
guidelines -- directed at law enforcement agencies, not
educational institutions -- on retention, dissemination,
and use of the disclosed records.)
_ A college or university "shall not be liable to any person"
for good faith disclosure of education records in response
to such an order.
_ Does not explicitly amend FERPA's "health or safety
emergency" exception. The precise interplay of that
exception and the Act's provisions is subject to
interpretation.
_ Access to NCES survey information. Permits federal law
enforcement officials to collect student information from the
National Center for Education Statistics.
_ Monitoring of foreign students. Calls for full
implementation, and expansion to all foreign students (other
than those who hold immigrant visas), of existing law -- not
enforced to date by the federal government to the extent of
its authority -- that permits federal agencies to collect
from colleges and universities information (name and address;
visa classification and issuance or extension date; full-time
enrollment status; and disciplinary action resulting from
criminal conviction) about such students. Existing law
exempts from FERPA such disclosures. New INS information
requests to colleges and universities are likely.
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY OFFICIALS
As providers of communication services, including telephones,
computers, and Internet access, colleges and universities will be
affected by Title II of the Act, Enhanced Surveillance Procedures.
Many Title II provisions will "sunset," i.e., cease to have effect
unless renewed by Congress, on December 31, 2005..HOGAN &HARTSON L.L..
Memorandum to Sheldon Steinbach and Terry Hartle
October 25, 2001
Page 3
_ Voluntary disclosure of electronic communications or records.
Amends the criminal code pertinent to voluntary disclosure of
information by providers of electronic communication service.
_ A provider may disclose to law enforcement officials
contents of an electronic communication, if the provider
reasonably believes that an emergency involving immediate
danger of death or serious physical injury requires
disclosure without delay.
_ A provider may disclose information about a "customer" or
"subscriber" (which for a college or university may include
faculty, staff, students, and possibly others) in some
circumstances, including to a government entity, if the
provider reasonably believes that an emergency involving
immediate danger of death or serious injury justifies
disclosure.
_ Required disclosure of electronic communications or records.
Expands the scope of technology-related information law
enforcement officials may obtain through warrants, subpoenas,
and court orders:
_ Permits government officials to seek stored voice-mail
messages without wiretap authorization.
_ Adds categories of customer information that electronic
communication service providers must disclose in response
to an administrative subpoena, including subscribers' local
and long distance telephone connection records; records of
session times and durations; length of service and types of
service; telephone or instrument number or other subscriber
number or identity, including any temporarily assigned
network address; and means and source of payment (including
credit card or bank account number).
_ Electronic surveillance. Expands the government's ability to
obtain, and the scope and reach of, court orders for some
electronic surveillance devices. For example:.HOGAN &HARTSON L.L..
Memorandum to Sheldon Steinbach and Terry Hartle
October 25, 2001
Page 4
_ Internet addresses. To cover the Internet, expands
existing law enforcement surveillance authority. A so-called
"pen register" or "trap and trace" device may
lawfully be used to obtain dialing, routing, addressing or
signaling information transmitted by wire or electronic
communication, if such information does not include
communication content. Unclear is whether law enforcement
agencies will now be permitted to use such devices to
obtain a record of URLs a user has visited. Although the
statute authorizes collection of "addressing" information,
a record of URLs might be considered "content."
_ Internet surveillance. Authorizes the government to
install certain devices, such as "Carnivore," to track
Internet use. "Carnivore" was the controversial program
sponsored by the FBI that enabled government criminal
investigators to intercept and collect information on the
Internet. The Act as passed, unlike earlier versions,
imposes on service providers no new obligation to furnish
facilities or technical assistance to aid law enforcement
in this regard, and authorizes compensation for reasonable
expenditures incurred in providing such aid.
_ "Computer trespassers". In some circumstances authorizes
providers to permit law enforcement officials and persons
acting for them to intercept without a warrant communications
of "computer trespassers" (persons who access protected
computers without authorization). A person who has an
"existing contractual relationship with the owner or operator
of the computer for access to all or part of the protected
computer" is not a "computer trespasser."
_ Computer hacking. Increases penalties for certain computer
hacking crimes, including accessing and transmitting
destructive programs, such as viruses, to computers. If loss
exceeds $5000 -- for example, if the hacker damaged
university equipment -- the hacker may be sued..HOGAN &HARTSON L.L..
Memorandum to Sheldon Steinbach and Terry Hartle
October 25, 2001
Page 5
CAMPUS OFFICIALS WHO PROCESS SUBPOENAS AND WARRANTS
As noted above:
_ Court order for education records. Amends FERPA to permit
disclosure without student consent, pursuant to a court
order, of education records law enforcement officials
consider relevant to a terrorism investigation.
_ Required disclosure of communications or records. Expands
the scope of technology-related information law enforcement
officials may obtain pursuant to warrants, subpoenas, and
court orders.
_ Electronic surveillance. Amends the criminal code regarding
law enforcement agency use of certain electronic surveillance
devices.
Also:
_ Wiretapping. Expands law enforcement agency authority to
intercept wire, oral, and electronic communications that
relate to terrorism and computer fraud and abuse.
_ Business records. Amends the Foreign Intelligence
Surveillance Act of 1978 ("FISA") to permit the FBI to seize,
with a court order, certain business records pursuant to a
terrorism or intelligence investigation. Prohibits any
person from disclosing (other than to persons necessary to
produce the records) that the FBI sought or obtained records
under FISA.
_ Search warrants. Permits courts in some circumstances to
issue a nationwide search warrant.
RESEARCH ADMINISTRATORS; ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH AND SAFETY OFFICE
_ Biological agents and toxins. Punishes by fine and/or up to
10 years' imprisonment knowing possession of a biological
agent, toxin or delivery system of a type or in a quantity
not "reasonably justified" by a research or other "peaceful
purpose.".HOGAN &HARTSON L.L..
Memorandum to Sheldon Steinbach and Terry Hartle
October 25, 2001
Page 6
_ "Select agents". Makes it a crime for nationals of countries
determined to support terrorism, persons indicted for or
convicted of serious crimes, and certain others to possess or
transport a "select agent" (including, for example, anthrax
and other agents identified in Department of Health and Human
Services regulations).
_ Other legislative proposals, notably concerning bio-terrorism,
are currently pending in Congress.
the only problem with this tool is that then Admins. (or home users) Must download and apply difficult and problematic patches. Loading a rpm is simpler and its worth can be accertained. How many of MS's Patches/ Service packs made a bad situation worse. (Winnt SP 6). If you had to open a hole there is less chance of home user and admins on broadband networks replicating Virii/worms/exploits like we have seen in the past couple months.
But then again i am only assumeing I know anything.
Actually, I tend to look alot more favorable at Applicants that have attended schools that DO teach CS majors how to work in teams. We also pay them More.
I attend University of Phoenix. ALL of our projects are team Based. We are required to spend at least five hours a week working with each other to occmplish a task. I was very leary of the Idea (I am very independant) But I have finnally learned How to work in a team. I suggest the school to anyone who is trying to further themselves.
I think that maybe starting off a little bit Slower is a more sustainable plan. Unfortunatly alot of the people in my generation look to the generation before us As the ones that were the ultimate in selfish... "there parents gave them the moon, and they didn't care". Few people realize hoe much the space program has benifited us. How many times do we watch the news and wonder "GEE how can they forcast the weather like that", Or use our GPS units and wonder WOW how did that happen?.... I think that having a space station is great But lets show BIG corp's that there IS MONEY in space (if nothing more than/.'s running fron katz) And make it sustainable. A GREAT fiction novel was written about this possibility. http://www.panix.com/~dgh/Flynn_FIRESTAR.html
I know that it is More than 1k but I have an all in one system I dual boot win2k for work/games and run redhate for redhat. It rocks for both
p3-800 256 mg ram dvd. Even my newbie sys admin was able to figure out the redhat install with an existing win2k install.
first they kick arbtotron out so they have no valid basis for ad rates. Then they start up their own "ratings"company now they charge for for internet ads.. What a good buisness model how do I invest............
As a colo. resident Who has a few drivers license problems already. Colo. Should not be trusted. The state already requires Insurance for every vehicle Owned in the state. (wheather it runs or not) they require the insurance companies to submit a list of policys each month to verify. The local police deptartments have access to this list and can pull you over for just being on the list of "uninsured". A person with license plates from a states that does not require insurance is almast a sure thing that you will be pulled over. The state is already encodeing ALot more that just your DL # in the mag stripes on back. Bars and liquer stores have Mag readers to verify your Age. But accoding the the MVR "the mag stripe is just there for future use".
As someone who has been doing alot of reasearch into the goverment latley. This is just another example of the leaders NOT listening to their own Science. Same as With the WAR on Drugs.
hate to support dell but...
All of my gaming buddies are envious. of my inspiron 8000. It runs circles around most of there machines where it counts. I agree the benchmarks put my 3d a little lowere than theres BUT i kick there but for speed, refresh and net play.

As a colo. resident Who has a few drivers license problems already. Colo. Should not be trusted. The state already requires Insurance for every vehicle Owned in the state. (wheather it runs or not) they require the insurance companies to submit a list of policys each month to verify. The local police deptartments have access to this list and can pull you over for just being on the list of "uninsured". A person with license plates from a states that does not require insurance is almast a sure thing that you will be pulled over. The state is already encodeing ALot more that just your DL # in the mag stripes on back. Bars and liquer stores have Mag readers to verify your Age. But accoding the the MVR "the mag stripe is just there for future use".
As someone who has been doing alot of reasearch into the goverment latley. This is just another example of the leaders NOT listening to their own Science. Same as With the WAR on Drugs.
