    when some kid downloads music on the net he is in the wrong but he is not trying to say the song anywhere in all its forms belong to him..

    Of course, this never takes into account backup media and the whole backup infrastructure (anyone price decent commercial backup software recently?).

    What is the *real* advantage of multi-core CPU compared to traditionnal SMP systems?

  9. Re:Call to worm developers!! on Yet Another Critical Windows Flaw · · Score: 1

    no!
    the worm may have a time limit as Blaster was set up to begin DOS'ing from a specified date.

    Here the worm business model :

    1) infect local computer by the Messenger flaw
    2) try to infect remote computers by the same flaw
    3) redo step 2 until a specified date
    4) disable internet connection (and suicide)
    5) ???
    6) PROFIT!!

  10. Call to worm developers!! on Yet Another Critical Windows Flaw · · Score: 2, Funny

    This time, please do something really useful, not only doing such silly thing as DOS'ing windowsupdate

    You can for instance, delete necessary files for Internet connection... in this case Microsoft will be in a *real* shit if nobody can connect the internet to download patches!
    They'll maybe have to send MILLIONS of CD by mail!

    Therefore, people will be *really* annoyed and may think it's time to switch to another more reliable OS.

  23. excertp : on Microsoft Patents 'Phone-Home' Failure Reporting · · Score: 2, Funny

    Despite the best efforts of software developers, software programs inevitably fail at one time or another. One type of failure is a crash. A crash occurs while a program module is running and results in the suspension of operation of the program module. Crashes are frustrating to users and, in some cases, may cause the user to lose work.
