  1. Don't want to say anything... on Borrowing ROMs · · Score: 2, Funny
    ...but I prefer downloading current ps2 games off the overnet p2p network. Legal or not.

    [Actually I don't own a playstation, police go away, hey that's my computer you're taking out of the door. Crap.]

  2. Re:What is it with media players? on New Way To Grade Decay of Computer Installations · · Score: 1
    A better way to get rid of them on Win 2000/XP:

    Run Group Policy [%SystemRoot%\system32\gpedit.msc] > Administrative Templates > System > Logon:

    Enable "Don't process run once list"
    Enable "Don't process legacy run list"
    Put everything that you do need in "Run these programs at start-up"

    You'll need administrative rights, big surprise!

  3. Re:Mozilla+Junkbuster! ? on iVillage Renounces Pop-up Advertising · · Score: 1
    True, but since mozilla 1.0 my JB doesn't seem to work well with mozilla, it gets tangled up and sends messed up document-relative requests. Say you go from google to cnn>click on world, it requests www.google.com/WORLD. (Yeah, tried using single thread)

    At least for lame xp users such as myself (half the time, please don't hurt me) I'd recommend opera+adsubtract. No ads whatsoever, no wrongly blocked content and no work trying to figure out JB's posix implementation (and just why in the world it keeps on blocking the NY Times image). It's commercial, but you know the drill.

    Hell, I didn't even know they have ads on slashdot.
