Worms that spread over UDP (like Blaster) could spread using spoofed packets since they don't require two-way communication. That would probably force a lot of ISPs to install egress filters.
IIRC, Slammer DID spoof. Fortunately, it was easy for the backbone carriers to drop the port it used, as it wasn't port 80 or any other critical port.
The proxy I use (adzap w/ squid) doesn't block the popups, but it blocks the page that would load in the popped-up window. This can reduce total popups if the popup also has more popup code within it, as that code will never load.
Now that Mozilla has popup blocking, I don't need that part of adzap anymore, but adzaps banner blocking is great, too.
Another option would be a opaque proxy and to provide a mini application that sets it up.
Most browsers will accept a URL to a "proxy.js" in the proxy config options, so the user doesn't have to type in all the hostname/ports for ftp, http, https,...
eg http://proxy.isp.net/proxy.pac
Inside that goes something like this:
function FindProxyForURL(url, host) {
return "PROXY proxy.isp.net:3128";
}
Misses: Once Upon a Time in Mexico was horrible, especially compared to its predecessors (El Mariachi & Desperado). Additionally, I felt cheated Selma Hayek was only briefly present as a memory, though she had primary billing.
Haunted Mansion was extremely boring. A complete waste of Eddie Murphy's talents. "Wow, those knockers are huge" in reference to the door knockers was the only apparent attempt at humor in the first hour.
Twice as bright would be nice. This can actually be acheived without increasing the bulb's wattage by using 3 LCDs or DLPs or whatever instead of 1. I believe some mid-range LCD bigscreens do use 3 chips, but with DLP, that is currently very expensive (probably mostly due to TI's monopoly on DLP), but if LCOS takes off, perhaps it will be cheaper.
It *is* censorship (but not illegal censorship, just like censorship in Communist China isn't illegal, because you "agree" to the "terms" by living there).
That'd have to be an extremely thick book! I shot 2 3" phone books (stacked together on the ground) with a.22lr from an 18" barrel and it went completely through the first and 1/3 into the second.
A.223Rem/5.56 Nato has more than 10X the power of a "high velocity".22lr, and I've seen them nearly penetrate 1" thick Aluminum blocks, using standard FMJ ammo.
I've seen some people post links to sites through Internet Archive's new (beta) cache. ISTM that would be an excellent way to post all links on Slashdot, assuming the IA doesn't mind.
It's like being thrilled by quantumn mechanics. Sure it's neat, but unless you are a researcher it's not going to be used in anything you buy, build, or are likely to use.
So this means you don't use CD's or DVD's?

Oooo, it will make already small computer chips smaller. Whoopie. The size of a computing device is currently limited by the size of the battery, power supply, or human interface device.
Smaller chips=shorter paths=higher MHz possibilities. Why do you think they keep shrinking processes? It's not to make your PC 0.1% smaller.

With a port 80 worm, you can't block it easily.

The log files from squid or whatever are so huge that many admins send them to /dev/null
His probation has already been completed.
Hero (Ying xiong) (8.1) was released this year in the U.S., and was incredible. I believe it is on DVD now.
Also, I found Intolerable Cruelty hilarious.
Runaway Jury was a very good legal thriller.

So are you supposed to do? Kill yourself?
:p
I take it you haven't seen Three Kings.
read your own article... sperm competition means the sperm competing for the egg(s), not men fighting each other.
As George Costanza said,
"Isn't it enough that we have to have sex with them?!?!"
Interesting...
could also explain why women often do better as real estate agents.
Survival of the fittest? (emotionally, mentally, whatever)
Not that I think "Social Darwinism" is good policy myself.
So, are they planning to maintain their "shoot on sight" rules a la Ruby Ridge?
Too bad then that there's no karma bonuses on ++funny

You've never been to Denver, have you?

That reminds me of this:
"I wanted to be a doctor, but then I found out that
medicine is biology
biology is chemistry
chemistry is physics
physics is math
and I hate math!"
In addition to WhiteBox, there is another RHEL knockoff in the works: cAos -- Community Linux
Yeah, they should change it to 'Stupid Managers' and 'Workers'. :p

Or were you just trolling?
Yes, their RBL server, bl.spamcop.net, can't be found since Monday for me and many other people.
There have been some posts on the mailing lists about it, but no real responses.
It does relative to the observer.
