  1. Re:Dont blame Gamespy! on Multi-vendor Game Server (GameSpy) DDoS Attack · · Score: 0

    But that would need support from old and new operating systems alike. Unless this protocol was bundled with the games it may be more trouble than it was worth.

  2. Re:Egress filtering on Multi-vendor Game Server (GameSpy) DDoS Attack · · Score: 0

    My isp support people when P2P apps dont work. They do this because if they blocked it their customer base would go down, and they know it.
    The same situation might apply here where their customer base may go down if their 'leet haxor' users found out they couldnt pretend to be microsoft.com.

  3. Re:Isn't this self-correcting? on Multi-vendor Game Server (GameSpy) DDoS Attack · · Score: 0

    The server will still return some data to the effect of 'no players' - albeit of a lesser size.

  4. Re:Funny, I discovered this almost a year ago on Multi-vendor Game Server (GameSpy) DDoS Attack · · Score: 0

    So.... you reported it a year ago and it has only become a 'mainstream security' issue this week. Interesting.

  5. Re:Man successfully dismembers his own member on Multi-vendor Game Server (GameSpy) DDoS Attack · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Beautifully off-topic

  6. Re:What did we always say.. on Multi-vendor Game Server (GameSpy) DDoS Attack · · Score: 0

    Pah, I didnt mean it to be inflammatory. Better luck next time me.

  7. What did we always say.. on Multi-vendor Game Server (GameSpy) DDoS Attack · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Good to see that an actual error was found with the program - It might make developers think twice before using their bloated propriatary, closed, middleware that is all but designed to lock out other browsers like all seeing eye.

  8. fantastic on Rosen Floats ISP Fee Idea -- Charge Everybody! · · Score: 1

    Wow. I can now feel really good that I pay the money-grabbing RIAA for just plain using the internet. I wonder who will be able to charge us through the backdoor next, Microsoft?

  9. Second time lucky! on Scaling Server Performance · · Score: 1

    It the images are not loading (reliably), the pages come out slow, but the generation time (bottom left) has never been over 3ms. Perhaps its a bandwidth problem they have.

  10. I hope googles model survives on Ask Jeeves Gives Up On Banner Ads · · Score: 1

    Paid ads that dont interrupt normal results (really). I hope thats the stance Jeeves takes.

  11. Something is up here... on Dow vs. Parody · · Score: 1

    If I posted this on my isp's webspace I would be the one to get in shit, not the ISP so forcing them to close down.

    Its another case of a big company killing off an enemy/rival who cannt fight back, and the world will be worse for it.

  12. 400,000 more *nix users on Microsoft Forced To Translate Office Into Nynorsk · · Score: 1

    Now that wouldnt be a bad thing would it?

  13. Darn... slashdotted while I was reading it. on Serial ATA, Here and Now · · Score: 1

    We are having major server problems at the moment. Something is up - we will fix this ;)

  14. WOW! My computer could talk to my fridge! on Single-Chip Linux Computer · · Score: 1

    Perhaps a new breed of WiFi 'hackers' will be born who instead of obtaining sensitive information from computers simply delete the firmware of every fridge in the neigbourhood.

  15. GTA Patch on Digital Rights Management on CD's This Christmas? · · Score: 1

    Thanks for the info. *heads off to download*

  16. Re:Making my life tougher Another Ripping Software on Digital Rights Management on CD's This Christmas? · · Score: 1

    Good tutorial for EAC: http://moocow.arakion.com/stuff/gffstandards.htm

  17. Re:DRM = Customer screwing.. on Digital Rights Management on CD's This Christmas? · · Score: 1

    GTA3 has copy protection on it. You cannt back it up without a 'good' cd burner and software which copys the cd EXACTLY

  18. Its as simple as this: on Digital Rights Management on CD's This Christmas? · · Score: 1

    An audio cd should be compatible with any and all hardware and software that it is designed to play them.
    If it does not, IT SHOULD NOT BE RELEASED.
