An antivirus is like an IPS. Reactive. It can only catch what it knows. The current lot of viruses is good enough that you should just format and reinstall if your OS is infected.
Exactly the same thing that you do with a rootkit infected Unix system.
Also, the security of a system depends on the administrator. You are administering your friends system. Slight difference.
Not everyone can read or write or comprehend English. The people currently in power comprehend English, but that was not the case a few hundred years ago, and it will not be the case a few hundred years later.
Remember that the bulk of the worlds population lies outside the English speaking countries.
Even ISPs can just toss in a few DNSBLs and start blocking. Works very well, and if anyone complains about false positives, ask them to pay extra for the unfiltered mail.
Clamav rocks for me on the mail side. Postfix, Amavisd-new, Clamav, SpamAssassin combine to form a very efficient virus and spam filtering/classifying system.
Wrong. Regardless of who it is, it is necessary to shut them down. You may be getting your bandwidth free, the rest of us have to pay for it, and we would rather not.
NATs are not an answer. NATs are problems. The above is a detailed analysis of the good, the bad and the ugly of NATs. I recommend actually reading all of that article.
We replied, but you were unable to understand our responses. You need time to evolve to the next higher stage of intelligence. We will wait until you achieve sufficient intelligence for communication to succeed.
If there is a rumour floating around that bank ATMs will give out money only if you have the correct fingerprint, a lot of people are going to lose their fingers before the crooks understand that this will not work.
There are specially printed versions of most books for sale in South Asia only (India and neighbouring countries). These are typically for about 1/10th to 1/4th of the cost of the US version.
If you ask the publishers nicely, they may print low priced versions for your region as well.
If you have a specific list of books, let me know in reply to this and I'll quote pricing here for you. Shipping is about 50 INR/kg (that is just over a dollar) depending on the distance to you.

NAT is broken, because it puts state in the network instead of the endpoints. That is one of the important reasons, but not the only one.
Oook!

Oh, and did you turn off the RPC services?
Bleh. Out here, the standard response time is next working day for such things.

Markets going up do not add money to the company. Companies can only tap this market by issuing more shares.

One virtual desktop per application. Not lots of Windows on one desktop.
Works far better for me. I have a crappy onboard video card, but wmaker works for me.
Virtual desktops make switching between applications trivial (or even application windows, if I need more of those).
I have accounts in four banks, for various different reasons. I need a key generator from each bank for this to work.
Not very usable, particularly when the number of keys gets larger.
Work, banks, other stuff....
Clamav rocks for me on the mail side. Postfix, Amavisd-new, Clamav, SpamAssassin combine to form a very efficient virus and spam filtering/classifying system.
Get them here:
Postfix
Amavisd-New
Clam antivirus
SpamAssassin at CPAN
You would be particularly interested in header_checks, mime_header_checks and body_checks for Postfix.

The only Authoritative Guide is the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. The only question is if it lists the Wikipedia as authoriative or not.
At the cost of the rest of the nine amendments?
You still do.
OO 2.0 includes a DB like application. And as for including MySQL, I wonder which of the two is worse, MySQL or Access.
TeX, and/or LaTeX rock for equations.
http://www.infrastructures.org says it so much better :).
Enjoy.
Yeah, but there was no rumour going around that all you needed was the persons finger to withdraw all his/her cash, was there?
You don't need biometrics, just the rumour is dangerous.
Or IE is just not in your target market.

And HTTP communication is secure for what reasons exactly? About the only worse protocol than HTTP is FTP.
