Asked for it my butt.:D Just use a decent proxy (Proxomitron for proxy and JD5000 filters for it) and you can leave javascript enabled in browser while disabling the nasty aspects of javascript that serve up the ad's and or spyware.

That should say? You aren't safe unless you use Proxo+JD5000. Hehehe
Doesn't get my interest going as I played CS to death a few years ago and got tired of it. Especially when other mods such as TFC (TeamFortress Classic) are much more fun and encourage more teamwork IMHO then any CS game.
Funny - last I looked the selection of Gamecube titles was VERY FAT (as in hundreds of titles) to say the least, especially with all the titles coming out this year.
Due to the fact that in team games such as TeamFortrss Classic, *ANY* clans you find in the popular TFC leagues such as STA for example will NOT have snipers as part of their team. They are useless and will get killed quickly enough by a skilled offensive team. Why do you think hardly any clans use snipers on their teams?
Not only does it kill all the popups/popunders and FLASH ADS AS WELL but you can also filter cookies, filter javascript nasties, and do so much more with the JD5000 Filters.
I've been using Proxo+JD5000 for the last 2 years now and I've never used anything else. Best of all it's FREE!
Whats ironic is that the makers of this "so called controller" never bothered to make one for the Gamecube. Ah well no big loss, it'll just end up in the heap like all the other 50 billion fitness gimmicks over the last few decades that are designed, not to work, but to steal your money.
Nothing new here but braindead media outlets speculating on everything from Nintendo's dog dieing to Peach getting pregnant with Bowser's child along with Nintendo dieing. All misinformation and lies.
And, even a lot of the broadband cable and DSL providers offer dialup access as well! For example Sasktel (DSL) and Access Communications (Cable) offers dialup services. And you can even get what I call "Poor man's DSL", DSL at 128K in Saskatchewan for $23.99 a month, pretty damn cheap.
Seems funny how you got broadband in a rural area like that yet no dialup? But, you do make a good point that for some people, especially if they live out in the sticks and like country living, dialup is the only option many people may have, even if it's only a small ma and pop ISP in a small hicktown or whatnot.
This is good news actually because it will give more business to the little and medium sized ISP's in Northern America for dialup access. It might even be good for cable companies to, because as an example here in Saskatchewan, both Sasktel and Access Cable offer dialup internet access along with their broadband offerings.
And, when I lived in British Columbia for several years there was LOTS of small to medium ISP's who had good service and tech support for dialup, and had offices you could actually drive to!

LOL! I laugh at thee. Obviousely this guy never spent the last 4-7 years in the Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2 and Mysteries of the Sith Zone.com lobbies where you could find a LOT of
A) Idiots B) Morons C) Spammers D) Hackers E) Cheaters F) A hoarde of sysops
Although F has changed recently since the Starwars lobbies are mostly dead anyway. Spend some time in the CD-ROM game lobbies for practically any game and you will see that the zone lobbies "are not all happy happy joy joy".
I don't believe any of this. Simply because when the Sony PSP does come out in the States it will be around $200-400, compared to a GBA or GBA SP which is MUCH cheaper and has a *HUGE* software library spanning the original Gameboy, Gameboy Color and Gameboy Advance titles.
Nokia N-Gage is a joke, no serious gamer buys this unless they like wasting money. Intel's standard portable platform isn't going to mean much of anything to a gamer at any rate.
No, Nintendo will still dominate the handheld market, especially once the NEXT generation of their handheld comes out with equal to or slightly better N64 quality graphics and gameplay.
It's simple folks. It means those UK people must be even MORE unlucky then Americans with PS2's that break down every 6-12 months and need to be replaced.
Nintendo's next gen system to the Gamecube has already been confirmed on the net from NOJ's president as to be backwards compatible with Gamecube games. THAT there will be a big selling point right there.
DVD playing I could care less about, from what I've heard the ps2 can't even play most dvd's with decent quality or without problems. Considering that DVD players are now almost as common place as VCR's, there IS NO POINT To putting it into a game console other then to hike the price up and make the system more complicated.
2) A game like GTA that involves every kind of crime imaginable does NOT make a system. I'd find myself bored playing a game like GTA where all you do is drive around, commit crimes and god knows what else. Plus the makers of GTA are in a lot of hot water now anyway.:D
Hey it's better then rehashes of Final Fantasy with poor gameplay, music and often graphics. Final Fantasy peaked with Final Fantasy 3, MAYBE even 7. Everything after that including FF10 and 10-2 is just overhyped garbage with polygon women to get horny teens drooling on screen.
And to be honest I am definetly not tired of Mario and Zelda. Especially Zelda series since I had some of the damn best gameplay experiences on Link To the Past, Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask and Wind Waker.
Honestly I don't think morons realize there are a lot of mature and teen games that you WOULDNT want kids playing, not unless you like giving your kids nightmares from horror games or nudity/porn games. Morons would not be happy until Mario was a pimp and pimping Peach out to Bowser, then they'd still complain..Idiots.
The sony handheld will be out if I recall correctly in 2005 in Japan, probably 2006 or even 2007 in USA, by that time Nintendo will have the next generation handheld out again, likely supporting N64 power to play 64 bit games and who knows maybe even STILL be backwards compatible with GBA/GBC/GB games.
Plus, as was mentioned here in another comment, Sony just loves to overhype their products, the PSX especially comes to mind, so does the PS2.
And Nintendo will NOT go the way of Sega. The problem with Sega was their were nowhere near as big as Nintendo, didn't have nearly as much money, and they tried to get the Dreamcast going good in the market, and it was a nice machine too, but ultimately it failed.
SO Nintendo will NOT be going down. Listen to the facts for once and not to moronic reporters who think they are psyhic and can predict Nintendo horror stories.

Easy enough to do. Get Proxomitron (www.proxomitron.info) and JD5000 filters for Proxomitron (www.jd5000.net) and kiss those ads and popups goodbye.
Those floating ad's for the most part are flash ad's anyway, so the JD5000 filters for disabling and or toggling on/off flash content help's a lot.
Asked for it my butt. :D Just use a decent proxy (Proxomitron for proxy and JD5000 filters for it) and you can leave javascript enabled in browser while disabling the nasty aspects of javascript that serve up the ad's and or spyware.
GET THE JD5000.net Filters for Proxomitron (www.jd5000.net). It puts the original Proxomitron filters to shame!
It was owned because I saw this. :D

The guy was caught doing 157KM/H in a 50KM/H zone and killed someone. He should have gotten LONGER in jail instead of just 18 months.

You also forgot to mention the JD5000.net Proxomitron Filters! which is so damn good it even amazes me to this day how powerful it is.

It's too hard for analysts to do resarch, they might learn something and excersize their brain cells if there's any left. :D
1) A GTA type game IS coming out for the GBA.
:D
2) A game like GTA that involves every kind of crime imaginable does NOT make a system. I'd find myself bored playing a game like GTA where all you do is drive around, commit crimes and god knows what else. Plus the makers of GTA are in a lot of hot water now anyway.
