It was going the same for me. This was after placing the phone on DFU mode during the upgrade process and restarting the phone several times. What really helped was after doing a full backup, clicking on the Restore button in iTunes. Plan on taking up about 1+ hours depending on the number and size of installed applications. After that, I notice it start slowing down after certain apps fail and taking me back to the SpringBoard. A reset brings it back.
This won't make your phone as responsive as a 3Gs or when it had 3.1 code, but it worked better for me. Unfortunately, moving to 4.0 code is necessary to get security updates for iOS. YMMV and all that but hope this helps.
Just recently had to edit the Host file. (Local DNS file).
Could not save it because of UAC, and didn't get a UAC prompt either, had to give up and disable UAC first.
You need to elevate the privilege of your editor. If you're using Notepad, right-click and select "Run as administrator". It now has the rights to edit and save the Hosts file.
What's interesting is that under this elevated privilege, you won't be able to drag-and-drop a file from lower privilege level processes (e.g. Windows Explorer).
2) An error within the interaction of Flash Player and certain browsers can be exploited to leak key presses to a Flash Player applet.
The vulnerability affects versions 7.0.69.0 and prior on Linux and Solaris. It does not affect Flash Player 9.
So while everyone is susceptible to code execution, key logging only affects the older versions running under Linux and Solaris. Not everyone's YouTube passwords are getting sniffed.
I don't know what he calls a majority, but the NT loader (used by Windows NT, 2K, XP, 2003) can boot Linux. It's just that Microsoft is being a pain about it. You have to first dd the first 512 bytes of your partition, save those to a file, and create an entry in boot.ini which points to that file.
An easier way is to use BootPart to automate the whole process.
It will even add an entry in boot.ini.
From the site:
BOOTPART creates a 512 byte file which contains an image of the boot sector that loads the boot sector of the partition. After, this file is declared in C:\BOOT.INI (a text file used by the Windows NT boot menu).
Yet Microsoft feels the command prompt should die and it seems (at least from my point of view) that it's included only grudgingly in the OS.
That's starting to change with Windows Server 2003. They have included a whole bunch of tools to help admins administer their box. Check out this knowledgebase article on the new tools for Active Directory alone. Here's another one for printing. There's even a howto on managing users, groups, and computers using only these tools. You may not be able to do everything on the CLI, but adding a dozen users won't be as painful.
CLI and GUI have their place. I like the speed of CLI and I can add an hour to my laptop's battery life by not starting X. But most of the time, I like the eye candy. Debating between CLI and GUI is the same as VI and Emacs. There's no clear winner. To each their own. And why not have both?
Just an FYI here, the iLO can now allow the access of removable media. From the QuickSpecs:
Allows a local client CDROM to be connected to a remote host server as a USB device, removing the need to visit the host server to insert and use a CDROM device. (iLO Advanced Feature)
Of course, you'll need to get the activation key to get the "Advanced Features" but you'll need it to support the graphical mode anyway.
It's not just a better system. You also need some PR to get people to try them. People will not switch desktops on the promise that they are better. They must feel that the benefit of a new system outweighs the cost of keeping the old.
And is this a problem with BK2CVS or CVS in general? It looks like someone was able to masquerade as davem and make changes to exit.c. According to McVoy in this message, the change was caught because BK perfoms a checksum of the kernel.bkbits.net and the internal BitMover CVS trees and compares them. Does this mean that people using just CVS would not catch this?
Hopefully more information comes out as to how this happened and how widespread this is.
Try TightVNC. They have it optimized for low bandwidth with different levels of compression. It may look a bit fuzzy but it's faster than regular VNC. It even has automatic tunneling thru SSH. It's already used in Mandrake. Dunno about other distros.

As much as we hate advertising on the web, there is definitely something to be said for ads as a window into history.
It's definitely a window into history. 10 years ago you could use ordinary batteries in your cell phones. You don't see these ads anymore.
It would be wonderful for Time-Life to do the same as Popular Science.
LIFE did it through Google Books also. They have it from 1936 to 1972. Check out the one they did on Apollo 11.

Like AOL was bad for the Internet?... Oh wait!
Actually, they have Writely as their collaborative online word processor. It was announced in March 2006.
How about rounding both the top and bottom corners. This would separate it from the other content.
Unless all contributors agree to re-license their work. IANAL, but I think this allows future versions to be closed.
And Back to the Future had a transportable version 20 years ago.

If you're running Win2k3 Server, have you tried to use the console switch on the client?

Samba. With these developments, I wouldn't be suprised if Microsoft goes after Samba for reverse engineering the protocol.
