When I went to my mom's elementary school to help her move stuff out at the end of the year, I used her computer for the internet. I wanted to pop on over to gmail because I was working on an interview for a job. I loaded IE and got presented with some log in screen. I then pulled out my jump drive, stuck it in, and loaded Portable Firefox. I got all the webaccess I wanted, no proxy, no login screen, and a browser I actually knew how to use.
It's good to know the safety of the kids in my mom's school district is thwarted by using something else than IE.
But as it clearly says that you are sharing your files at least at some level of onlineness, why would you want your firewall to interfere with what you wanted to serve?
And of course, if we actually go look to configure the firewall instead of trolling slashdot, we see that it's right in front of our big MS hating noses: http://dpm.resnet.tamu.edu/xpshare2.png
I had such high hopes for Voyager, and that was a let down (I've maybe seen 10 episodes). I had such high hopes for Enterprise, and I think I only watched the pilot.
So, in other words, you have never seen any of the latest two series (You've seen 6% of Voyager and less than 3% of Enterprise.) You have no real right to attempt to critique a show you have yet to watch. It just doesn't work that way.
I also don't believe you have any basis to be disappointed with the latest two series. Watch them, enjoy them, and don't make them have to live up to the greatness that was TNG and TOS. Those series are long gone, as is the original creator. The latter half of TNG followed in Gene's footsteps, while the latter series are unique creations in a right of their own. I earnestly think Enterprise should have the right to be finished (7 seasons.) After it is finished, then a hiatus can be taken.
(As a footnote, I have seen 94% of Voyager and 100% of enterprise)
I'd suggest carefully reading the DVD itself along with the case and any other material. If it says nothing about copy protection, or something like "This DVD smites computers" I'd immediately take it up with the studio that produced the DVD. Try to be nice, but at the same time exacting. If I were you, and there were no notices, or you can clearly prove that these DVD players were stand-alone devices, I'd take it to small claims court and get my $300 bucks back if they don't strike a reasonable deal.
Don't take no for an answer. Manufacturers should and are held responsible for damage to property under tort law.
I was pretty sure you could use BOTH the player and IE to buy songs. Besides, you have to have Windows Media Player to play the song anyway. Why not let the happy masses use their player to play songs and their browser to buy them? Some people like separation of tasks.
If you use FireFox or something else, that's your problem. Don't bitch, just use IE inside of Windows Media Player, and buy your music via the player just as a user of iTunes would.
Actually, that was just the marketing. NT is rumoured to stand for "NTen" the code name of the Intel i860 chup, the original target platform for Windows NT.
Oficially though, it's just 'NT' The letters according to Microsoft mean nothing, except what you wish to embelish upon it.
I'm not so sure about that... I've had many problems with Firefox. They block port 1080 for some obscure reason based on a really old trojan that has absolutely nothing to do with Firefox, yet to get around this block, you have to make an obscure config file edit. I had to use IE to access a friend's server.
There is also the bug where if you used.8 and upgraded to.9, clicking the "Add engines..." for the search toolbar does nothing. I had to manually go to the http://mycroft.mozdev.org/download.html site. It's not that bad for people who know what they are doing, but, when that feature is lacking, users can go straight back to IE and download their favourite toolbar and use it's dictionary, search, or whatever. (IE Does block popups now, along with things like, onmouseover and and a few other scripts)
Looks like I got beaten, but I already had typed up a reply in Notepad, and mine is better than that "Coward's" anyway as it tells you where to get it from.
I was rooting around in MS Office 2003 and I noticed that it has a category in it's installation setup under "Office Tools" in a little + thing entitled "Microsoft Office Document Imaging." Under this there are three options, "Scanning, OCR and Indexing Filters" "help" and "Microsoft Office Document Image writer." As I had to remove Office 2003 after installing SP2, (All of the programs crash when I try to pull down the font choosing form, so I figured uninstalling Office, reboot and install might fix things since that's what you must do with microsoft) I cannot vouch for how well it works... If you have Office 2003, you might wish to configure it so that this is installed and give it a whirl... Once you have it installed, it shows up in your Start Menu under "Programs->Microsoft Office 2003->Microsoft Office Tools->Microsoft Office Document Imaging." The help file reccomends that when scanning and wanting OCR, to use Black and White only, no colour. I wish you luck.
(As an aside, I finished my reinstall and installed SP1 for Office 2003, and it now hangs for about a minute or so when I attempt to expand the font list... I have a feeling I have too may fonts installed, probably from Photoshop and what not. I need a wish of luck myself...)
I love how they don't close their nobr causing a lack of linebreaks throughout the page (depending on the browser you use, as is not standard HTML, but an extension.)
Y'all should have a hub of your own now. Ask around campus. Some guy was talking with me over AIM a while back about how to set one up.
If not, set one up yourself. 14 TB of stuff on campus is nice to have.
Our IT department, called CIS, claims it is 'Virus' traffic that takes up the bulk of the bandwidth. I and another server on campus got shut down simply because we were sending out too much data at a time. Basically, if you sent a certain amount of packets over a certain port range (Which is totally uncontrollable, as clients normally choose any random port to connect to your 411 or port 80) you got firewalled off and stuck on a sort of LAN of your own.
I hate those damned viruses caused by clients requesting data from a server. Such a pain.

Still whats better than jamming out with your iPod while surfinf Facebook and getting drunk?
Posting on slashdot while drinking beer, listening to an iPod and 'sufinf' facebook.
Anyway, if I had the cash burning a hole in my pocket, I'd pass this one by.
A wise decision. It's not even endorsed by a superhero.
Ahh yes, I dated them in highschool.
Ahh, so you admit to being a pedophile (Red Spot Jr., 6 years) and a fetishist (Red Spot, >300 years.)
When are the record companies going to wake up and smell the profits?
Probably when they stop smelling ass due to the location of their heads.

Somehow, I don't like the sound of this. I have a feeling I'll be dead before the bases get to the other side of the map^H^H^H solar system.

Does the speed test test the ports that Direct Connect uses, or the ports that your web browser use?
