Heck, a lot of people don't even separate the "web browser" as something that is distinct. They think of the web as the Internet, their monitor as their computer, their case as their hard drive, etc.
That's why is so important to advertize the BROWSER.
This kind of analisis do exist but searching for bugs like that on the linux kernel will give just bogus result. That's because 1 and 2 are made by gcc for the most common bugs, the compiler gives you warnings and the kernel (at least last time I compiled it) have just a few of them and they look like ordinary pieces of code, not bugs. Techinique 3, while usable in limited cases is very hard in a big hightly optimized piece of code, like the kernel.
So, if they used something like that on the linux kernel, they problably found just some weird code, not bugs.
Straining the silicon may have no impact on it's strenght and may still be benefical (strainig stell can make it much more strong, at least). But this have nothing to do with the computer strenght that is limited bu the board not by the microprocessor's chip.
Return on investment, not TCO, is a better measurement of value. Businesses that think they can cost-cut their way to success are generally doomed anyway.
Return over investiment is a completely different metric that can be aplied on busness plans, not in maintaning or comparing structures. Of course big RoI, and not low TCO is what companies want, but TCO is used for calculating RoI and the smaller it is for equivalent structures, the highter is RoI (is everything else is equal).
Well, software been used in a misssion critical must be auditted, it been closed or open.
Besides that, it's also hard to trust a company (remenber that a free software developer doesn't need to know how uses his software, but a closed software company does know) and problems with free software tend to be detected faster.
And if it's not enogh, at least free software is easyer to audit (because you have the source) and don't let you with buggy software because you can correct the bugs you foud. People that need this kind of security generaly can afford correcting software.
Good on Lycos for finally having the balls to stand up to these guys. The spammers have been stealing bandwidth off all of us for far too long now.
Good, now we will begin to spend that bandwidth in a much more usefull way...
But when/if longhorn comes out with the new version of IE hopefully they would fix the major issues such as popup blocking control, Better support for the standards, and stronger security settings.
Yes, but when Ms comes with longhorn, most of the people will not upgrade. They will need to wait until the PCs are renewed to have all users using the new IE. It takes a long time (and this time, this will take much more time than last time).
Firefox still have a lot of time to grow. Ms lost it's time (again, but, now there is no other company to destroy).
Well, you are missing a part of it. First, the money (at least some of it) adquired on the carbon marketing may be used for developing clean tecnologies. This will prevent the developping coutries from polluting much more.
Also, normally, developping countries tend to improve their ecological legislation while they develop, due to external and internal pressure. This happens now, without the need of an agreement.
So, there is not such thing as a harmfull kyoto.
I don't know about India, but I can tell you that in Brazil, eletronic voting machines have been working well since 98. All the error, the article says it increased in US have decreased here and all the paper related frauds (there are lots of things you can do with paper voting) vanished.
Brazilian voting machine is much simpler than indian (and the US tries), they have just a normal screen and a numeric keyboard. People memorizes (or wrrites down) the number of the candidate and input it into the keyborad (had no problem with noliterate people, and they (everybody) surely vote here).
Also, the machines were buit by the government and verifyed by professors and partyes. As I said, it works better than paper.
The software world seems to think that, if I use Windows, and it turns out Microsoft stole code, I am personally liable.
Well, US laws can be very amazing. It seems to be true, not for copyrights, but for patent infrigiments. It looks like that if someone sell you a product that infringes a patent and you uses it, you are liable in US.
Well, in 1971, Brazil was rulled by a militar dictatorship (that, by the way, wouldn't happen wothout CIA's help). By that time, Brazil had interest on ICBMs and nuclear weappons.
Today, Brazil is a democracy (where, by the way, the most votated candidate don't loose) and nuclear weapons are against constitution and there is no effort directed into ICBMs, just satellite launches.
Well, first, Argentina doesn't have the same advantages as Brasil (Your north extreme is a bit away from the Equator). Second, Brasil and Argentina have a space colaboration program (recently signed). I don't know exactly what it says, but has something to do with developping satelites toghether. So, it's good also for Argentina.
Actualy, the firefox interface itself is written in XUL, just like any other application you can run on it. That means, you can display almost anything in a "normal" window. The only interface limitation (I think) is the absence of a "canvas" object, but this is very litte restritive, due tho the large amount of available objects to use.
Processing stuf on the machine, however, is a bit more complicated. Fireforx, nowadays, accept any kind of javascript that doesn't access the local discs (for security reasons). Anything different must be installed locally with a XPI script. Javascript is not very powerfull, and installing a XPI script from the web needs a big amount of trust, but, with this, you can run any program you want.
Fist one, don't you think that returning the average temperature of your local city at the expensivness of modifying almost every other temperature on the planet is going to restore your climate. This is true also for the North Africa that you cite, they will probably have even worse problems than they have now, not became a greenbelt. Second, thne natural emissions of CO2 are very smaller than human emissions (unless if you consider all the carbon that cicles in biomass), not bigger. And natural emissions are compensate by natural landing of carbon (that generates coal, oil...) on the long run.
Gret, and since this methane is generated by sequestring carbon from the atmosfere into plants, it can be again burned into the atmosfere.
It's not a new way of using solar power, just an ancient one that is not very used because of the small amount of energy that can be gathered this way.
Well, home users also need to find elements in large arry (don't need to crack PGP codes yet, I think) and this need will be as big as fast home computers can do that.
It's very problable that QC will need liquid helium (or maybe liquid nitrogen) for a long long time. But maybe they can be built small. And with little improvements, it can be very easy to keep liquid helium at home (like it is today to keep liquid hidrogen). That said, maybe people will have QC at home.
Well, I ges you don't want to hold a BALL of plutonium (unless it's to litte to small to break your toes).
Now seriously, there is a way to generate antimatter from anything else than energy (from now it has been generated from cinetic energy)? there is the possibility of a antimatter power plant or just antimatter craft fuel?
How do I "contact you for a private discussion"? I have traid to design infrmation management down on disk and memory management on a OS once. It has lots of problems. The worse are like this NAME and PERSON_NAME stuff, that no system can certanly link but must be linked in order to communicate different (not necessary relational)databases. I could start designing the OS, but a computer with it was unable to comunicate.
So, if you have some ideas, I am very interested in listening. But don't you think this will "lead the tecnology race". An OS like this is surely very new and interesting but widely adoption is very unlikely (think about all the X subistitutes).
The fotons must not be altered. This means neither stored on a computer's memory nor the signal amplified (the latter is the greatest problem to spread QC).
This means tha, yes, you need another routing scheme. But it's not something very troublemaker, you need to tell the router where it must send the package before sending it (like telephony) and it must be routed whitout been read (what some experimental optical routers alread do).
Yes, a man in the middle atack can aways be used as a denial of sevice. This is because in order to make a men in the middle atack, you must be able to stop (intecept and modify) comunication between the two peers.

Unzip and run, like the Firefox zip builds, unless policies prohibit running executables not signed by IT.
They can still firewall everityng but IE.

New trafic sensors tend to be magnetic, but there are plenty of old weight sensors out there.

That is not the case. The vunerability counting is right. Take Outlook as an example... It has just one , single, all code long bug.
How lucky are you!
I could never forget about a windows install, neither run upgrades that easly.

I just use EMACS...
