That's totally idiotic. The user should have a choice of what sites to store their password. Yahoo in this case is making a bad assumption, that the the user is too stupid to know when it's safe to store passwords. Firefox should treat the users needs first, and just ignore the attribute (just like Opera does)
"wouldn't storing usernames and passwords for secure websites be a bad idea?" No, because you have the choice of not storing the password at all (duh). Opera works with all sites
Sounds reasonable. Except who's going to write the extensions? Extensions are currently written by unpaid voluteers and now these extensions would be replacing signficant functionality from the browser
Instead of doing yet another new theme, how about fixing stuff that should be working, like: * password manager should work for all sites (it doesn't work in yahoo, or any online bank sites, for instance) * download manager does not keep paused downloads across sessions * memory usage (need I say more)
There seems to be a very cool bug in Second Life, rendering of clothes is sometimes delayed becuase of over worked servers, this resulted in Rosedale breifly being shown naked in the press conference
The guy sent an appology because he didn't want to be charged, not because he was sorry. Maybe if you read about the murder of this guy (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/mersey side/4730559.stm) you can imagine what the family had to go through.
In my experience so-called "special" web sites made for mobile phones work much worse than the normal ones and besides that Opera mini can display just about any site perfectly (the only difference from viewing on a PC is that you will have to do a lot more paging)
If what you say is true then about 90% of all shared host web sites are at risk. Presumably now that it is a public fact that cPanel is crawling with security holes the black hats will be actively looking for the exploits.
Most of the rules are just about the Aero eye candy and do nothing for usabilty. If you look at rule 5 you will see that they still have the idiotic confirmation dialog boxes that only have a limited range of answers (ok, cancel, retry, yes, no). What happens if none of these answers are appropiate to the dialog question? This is a flaw, that you can't specify the button text in message dialogs that has been in most frameworks since day one.
Well, if Hizbollah is using civilians as a shield then the strategy has failed, because Isreal has shown no restraint whatsover in bombing those locations.
You're right it *is* a zero day exploit. There have been quite a lot of them reciently, but they haven't done much damage because they depend on the user to navigate to a malicious web site with IE and activeX switched on. What would really be a lot of fun is a Blaster-type zero day worm. (If you remember blaster only required the user to connect to the internet to be infected)
No, if you scroll down to the bottom of the page you will see they have a picture of a dog with the words "great site award". this proves without any doubt that it is actually a top quality web site.

Maybe you can survive, but that's all you're doing. You're not going to have a fun time in 120+ (and I mean without AC, in Vagas everyone has AC)

I see the tagging feature is working quite well
I read in another artical that they were the size of bananas. They really need to standardise on which vegitables to compair monster teeth size.

What other types of whale are there? I can't imagine what a "land whale" would look like.

Okay, that answers one question, but now I want to know what the Textile Services Association was doing in airport security

Does it mimic the non-recognition of Linux style linefeeds too? That would be very handy on a Linux box.
Are you suggesting that taking anabolic steroids can increase your performance in a Halo2 death match?
