  1. Re:Is it just me... on US Busts Military Network Hacker · · Score: 1
    They needed the Russians to give them access to their home computers to prove that the russians had been the ones threatening the other banks.

    To get this information the Russians accessed their own computers from the demonstration computers which had key logging software running on them. Then the FBI accessed the Russian computers in Russia to gain evidence that proved that the two Russians had been the ones demanding money.

    The only dirty part is that they illegaly accessed the Russians computers in Russia, without Russian permision which is in effect cracking/hacking? and used/are going to use this information as evidence against the two Russians

    Is it just me or did i type in Russian too many times...

  2. Re:100 Sites? on US Busts Military Network Hacker · · Score: 2, Informative
    The more you hack/crack?? into a set of networks more and more information will be stored about how you did it, presumably.
    Thus it should be easier to figure out where you are from after 100 than it is with 1.

    This is also true with reality attacks.
    eg. For recent news the Washington Sniper as he shot at more and more people more and more information can be gathered making it easier and easier to figure out who he is.

    Yes we would have, except it would be along the lines of Microsoft corrupts unfortuante African Children who dont know any better.

  4. Re:Flimsy on San Diego Company Owns E-Commerce · · Score: 1

    Although they would probably win a challenge against this kind of flimsy patent.

    They have to worry about losing to it as they gain no real benefit from slapping it down at the moment, as it would be non-trivial to have the war chest made irrelevant in a court case.

    (These kinds of challenges are decided by judges I believe)

    No judge is stupid enough to believe that because a bunch of small companies setlled that the patent is neccesarilly valid

    No, they are doing their best to imitate American laws after seeing how well the American Poly's got more power from their new laws

  7. Re:My solution - be nice on Fighting Telemarketers with Technology · · Score: 1

    I used to work at a telemarketing company and whenever people asked for your name the first thing you did was lie. There was even one guy who would put you a different accent and name for each call he made just for laughs. It is really funny listening to someone who speaks perfect english talking like someone who has just emigrated from overseas that has an incredibly strong accent.

  8. now is a great time to buy really on AOL-Time Warner's Money Pit · · Score: 1

    look at what was done by people in the 70~80's especially Sir James Goldsmith who made 500 million US off one deal alone by breaking up these synergized copanies to get at the real value. I won't be suprised if at some point in the future there is some kind of repeat of companies buying others for breakup value again and there is another wave of mass money making from doing nothing but spoting value where noone else does
