Somehow I doubt it. If every time a securty issue was found with a product people binned it then we wouldn't be running Linux, Windows, Firefox, IE, WiFI, etc...
SMTP is designed with delays in mind; it may take minutes or hours for a message to get to someone (or - even - days).
Tunneling via https would be more sensible and would allow us all to use P2P through firewalls, corporate blockages etc (assuming it was designed cleverly enough to hide the fact it's p2p traffic)

The EUCD trumps the copyright act 1988 for most of this stuff since we ratified it.
E.g. Article 5 Exceptions and limitations 1. Temporary acts of reproduction referred to in Article 2, which are transient or incidental [and] an integral and essential part of a technological process and whose sole purpose is to enable: (a) a transmission in a network between third parties by an intermediary, or (b) a lawful use of a work or other subject-matter to be made, and which have no independent economic significance, shall be exempted from the reproduction right provided for in Article 2."
Is this not a lawful use of a work (purchasing and downloading onto our computer) that has no independent economic significance (goods are already paid for and we aren't redistributing them).
We aren't working around any copy protection measures by using allofmp3, we aren't distributing.
Interesting. They (allofmp3) make a copy of the bits in Russia and then send them to you via the internet. You aren't creating the copy by them sending you their legal original to create the copy from.
This should be identical to them sticking them on a cd and physically sending that to you too - they make the legal copy for you.
Why is this any different to physically flying to Russia, buying a CD off the shelf for a much lower price than you pay in the US, then flying back with it?
I.e. if you are legally buying something in another country (as allofmp3 claim) and you are shipping it to your computer (via an internet, just as software etc is distributed), then how can this suddenly become magically illegal?
And when we have non-disruptive upgrade technology so that the (possibly daily) patches to the thousands of packages included with a system, then we'll start dancing in the streets. Naked.
All this extra exposure does is make more work for admins - yes, keeping on top of security updates is very important, but the current methodologies don't scale very well.
It would have a use if it's signals managed to reach us. For example we can use GPS even though the radio signals it puts out aren't under the UK.gov's control.

Actually - in the storage world - Dark Fibre is defined differently. And it's lit, not dark. Go figure.
Google "dark fibre" SAN.
So why put any text there? Sort of defeats the object... a bit like "This Page Intentionally Left Blank".

Surely you mean:

buy parts
make fake box
sell
profit!
Or better:
build a website in
Profit!

I get about half way through starting my reply before Windows crashes on me caus
Unfortunately it still crashes my Dell Axim X30. Just freezes and on reboot complains about memory corruption.
Remember - take a full backup first using Active Sink so that you can restore from a cold reset if needed. If it works on your unit - great!
And Windows is for real men?

Actually I'm in the UK, though because of DRM etc still subjected to US rules. Ho hum.

Nope, just the ones covered by their patents that can be upheld in a court.
Or... we'll stop using computers entirely because the illusion that it's all well written and put together carefully will be stripped away.

I live in Rural Britain. We need the FCC to enable much lower signals so that we can _finally_ get broadband.

I can't wait
Hurrah!
