It does work, until you try to deploy it to a couple thousand users at the mail gateway level. Now the end users spend half as much time white listing people as they did deleting spam. You also have to worry about bounces. For instance, suppose I'm a spammer. I send a mail to: joe@abc.com and from: joe@def.com. You at abc.com bounce the message to joe@def.com, because it wasn't white listed. joe@def.com never sent it since it was a forged from address. 95% (guess) of the from addresses in spam are forged. You just helped in sending joe@def.com spam. What if joe@def.com is using the same system? He didn't white list you or the postmaster address from abc.com. Another bounce will occur on the def.com mail server, leaving the postmaster addresses on both abc.com and def.com with a lot of useless garbage. White listing alone isn't a solution, just part of it.

or
apple fruit
Hit the submit button after either for the amazing results. Imagine this, I put in the word orange and Google didn't psychically know that I was looking for fruit again!
I think that's a load of crap. They'd still have to worry about the server versions, and they will still make the other versions available. That and SCO is just blowing wind.
I love how Bill toots his own horn. Like almost everyone, I receive a lot of spam every day, much of it offering to help me get out of debt or get rich quick. It's ridiculous.
Hey Bill, pass me a billion and we can share the joke!
And it was great. We walked out in the morning, went up the street and got breakfast. Half way through breakfast we realized that we *probably* should have picked up our paychecks first. DOH! We all finished our breakfast, went back for our paychecks, and were met be a much friendlier management team that was all of a sudden very concerned about what we had to say. We kept our jobs and the main manager that was the problem lost hers. The whole experience was incredible.
MS did it on purpose for debugging purposes? Maybe a couple more tags like
<input type bluescreen>
<input type slow_machine_to_crawl>
<input type bsa_audit>
<input type flood_ISP>
exist and they just haven't been discovered yet.
I've found that going at it all it once is NOT the way to go when it comes to winning acceptance of open-source software in the workplace. Instead, get something small that's needed at work, sniffers are always a good one. When starting a new project, always include an open-source alternative. If you get just one thing setup and prove its worth, you'll see the resistance to open-source software drop. My company has gone from 0 Linux servers last year to 6 this year with more on the way. It may not be huge, but rarely does anything ever start off that big.
According to the DOCSIS 1.1 specification it is the responsibility of the cable modem itself to not pass other users traffic through, as cable internet is a shared medium like a hub. Some things will get through, though, since they are passed to a broadcast like DHCP, SSDP requests, and IGMP. I have Adelphia and can see these things coming in, as I should, but not other people's web traffic. Sounds to me that they posted something on BugTraq that is written up in a specification.
Check out Cablelabs for the DOCSIS 1.1 specification.
My company uses Websense for Internet Content Filtering and advertising is a blocked category. Where does this fall into the grand scheme of things? The money a large company can save in bandwidth from not downloading evey pop-up and banner ad can be potentially large.
Slashdot Mirror
Because if they made it work before Vista was available, every one would be screaming about anti-trust stuff.
Hopefully it's the beginning of a band wagon and many others follow suit.
There is a similar site at http://www.nooble.com/
Could this be the first phone number slashdotted?

Wait, why does it cost so much for a hard drive?
It was there, and now it's gone! As he walks in the room and his breath turns to frost, the boy utters this chilling phrase... "I see red posts"

According to #10 by Michael A. Lowry copying DVDs should be exempt. How does that relate to this case then?
