That would be my concern as well, when it comes to my signature, no two signatures are ever exactly alike, I always mess up somewhere along the way. I can imagine myself being locked out because I can't get my picture right.
However, if the picture password system is programmed to allow for slight deviations from the original, then maybe I won't have to be an accomplished artist to be able to correctly draw my passpic.
I think, for now, I'll stick with text passwords, they may be weaker, but I can remember patterns on the keyboard better than remember how I drew something.
I just wanted to try out how likely it would be for me to accidentally open a.doc.exe file, immediately after renaming a.exe file to.doc.exe, AVG was onto it. Since we use AVG on our computer shop systems, I'm reasonably sure that with having that Antivirus and Thunderbird, this sort of scam won't get far with us. Well, that and the fact that we are always in close communication with the BBB to begin with, so if we get a strange email from them, we can always ask them if they sent one.
It might actually work once it is developed more, and is implimented properly. Of course, even though it sounds like a good idea, once it is put to use, it might not be all that great. Another fear that I might have about a Mozilla desktop environment is that it might end up being really resource heavy like I find KDE to be.
I would probably give it a try, and then form an opinion from it. If it doesn't work too well, I would still be happy with the stand-alone brower and email applications that Mozilla makes.
There is no reason why spiders should even need to have to be able to interperet natural language processing. If she was really so concerned about the content of her site being indexed and archived by spiders, she should have done a quick search and learned about the robots.txt file.
It's probably been said before, but it's my opinion that it's her responsibility to protect her content if she's so concerned about it, it should not be the responsibility of the Internet Archive to try and parse her incoherent "contract" (which, since it resides at the bottom of the page, will be read last by the spider, after it has already archived all of the page before it) in order to know whether or not it's allowed to archive the page.
The way I see it, if you have a public webpage that doesn't require a login or subscription to access... or even a robots.txt file, then naturally your page will be indexed and archived.
At least I don't have to worry about such a vulnerability.
I stopped using RealPlayer at version 7, I refuse to upgrade to any higher version. I used to use Real for virtually all my media, but now I only use RP7 for occasionally playing the RealAudio files that I kept.
Your productions suck! and why shouldn't we alert others on the poor quality of your movies? Maybe this will encourage you to put more creative thought processes into the making of movies rather than slapping a bunch of eye-candy special effects together and hyping it way up.
They want reliable and limitless energy, but they don't want transmission lines and generating plants to exist in their area. Sorry, but you guys can't have it both ways, either you allow transmission lines, substations, generating plants, etc. to be built, or reduce your fscking energy consumption. Okay?

That's exactly what happened to Senator Joe McCarthy.
Yeah, I know about McCarthy, I thought the only thing that stopped him was that he died in 1957, but I'm most likely wrong.
Eventually, however, he started accusing people in the military of being Communist. And relatively important people. The military had good lawyers, and that was the beginning of the end for old Joe.
So yeah, that's the precedent I'm using in my example.:D
Okay, maybe there is hope after all, but McCarthy was merely a communist-hunting senator, and not the president of a multi-billion dollar organization. The only thing bigger is Microsoft.
Hmmm, two big evil corporations going against each other with their army of lawyers... I'd pay to see that.

Actually I jaw a normal vending machine with a nice piece of technology to fix that. It was called "goldeneye", but aside from the bad Bond reference was pretty cool. It used a camera to record the drop. Pretty simple really, it just turns the screw until it drops then stops. They claimed 100% accuracy which is of course imposible, if nothing else the flourescent light will burn out.
With some of the machines I've dealt with, sometimes I'd wish that the other GoldenEye existed so I could use it against them. That'll teach it to take my dollar and not give me anything.

And here I was just about to mention that, and to think I read the Onion's "article" just last night.

Then again, that's just the way I see it.
I wonder why that is, and since I hardly ever drink beer, I've never really observed the bubbles to see such a thing myself.

My old man used to say "The more commercials for a movie, the worse it will be." How very true.

My firewall sure is showing a lot of Ping attempts, thankfully they've all been blocked, just like the probes from the original worm.

Ah, so You're the one who drew just enough power to overload the grid.

That looks like the transformer that exploded in my city about six years ago, I remember seeing that footage before.
Except that the DMCA probably won't apply to the RIAA since they're virtually above the law.
I'm glad that I'm not on the list (yet), either that or the list on Tech TV is just a sample of the actual hit list, to which I'm on.
Back in line, program!

True, but it takes skill and knowlege of computers to get the thing to actually work.
