i think the internet is like the radio waves. they ACT like there is limited bandwidth, but really it's only because they choose to create a shortage so that price goes up.
CommandNotFound: i started to put all the ip addresses that send those requests into "Deny from" lines in my.htaccess. it was easy at first, but now it's grown to a couple hundred lines. is it just me or is this getting worse?
"What I've found is that HFNETCHK actually identifies truly critical patches, while Windows Update improperly identifies non-critical updates as being critical. For instance, it tells you that installing Internet Explorer 6.0 SP1 is critical (even when you're running a fully-patched IE 5.5SP2) or even worse, it tells you that a patch meant to improve functionality of using a non-IE default browser is critical."
hate to break this to you, but this is not an accident. they want you to update to IE6 because they want further control of your computer. ie6 contains "XP Technology" (i.e. limited DRM). for example, if you have a copy of Office installed that isn't properly licensed, it will kill your office process on startup. same reason they try to make you upgrade to Media Player 7.x

redundant? well Forest may stutter a bit, but he's not redundant. you mods are just plain insensitive.
eww...you pretend to be Forest Gimp? that's sick.
yeah, i couldn't refresh google either.
as long as they don't steal my ego or superego.
