It's really not too hard, but there is a learning curve to understanding the "Drupal" way. We did make some changes to core Drupal code, but that was more us not yet grasping the best way to make changes.
What is the best way? Customizing Drupal through the use of modules. We wrote a few new modules for locations and maps and hacked a few others for groups and users.
We spent about 3 months customizing Drupal. However, the task was made more complex because we had to integrate it with our existing JSP site and existing database.
Here are just a few references pointing out the real percentage of computers infected with spyware: 80% 8 out of 10 88%
Or, just search it.
So, 5 years to admit to the problem as it was 3-ish years ago.
Every so often, I get to leave my protected existence in these United States and venture out to some of those "Third World" countries. I gotta tell ya, some of them are pretty nice. I would even go so far as to call Paris the Tulsa of France.

McVoy Strikes Back

· Score: 3, Insightful
However, McVoy says it took him five years to create an industrial strength version of BitKeeper, and he thinks Torvalds will find it difficult to create a full-fledged replacement.
Git's done. Linus thinks it needs some polish, but he calls it "Feature Complete". If Linux can do in weeks what McVoy took 5 years to do, just imagine how mature and innovative BitKeeper could be.
I've found that different devices show up on different USB ports. /dev/ttyUSB1 works for the Zire 72 and Tungsten E. /dev/ttyUSB0 works for the Tungsten T.
This is all with J-Pilot, which has always worked perfectly for me.
To be clear there are no Operating System APIs that IE uses that are not documented on MSDN as part of the platform SDK and available to other browsers and any other software that runs on Windows.
Neither did I. So, I went to their site and read a little. They appear to be right-wing pro-Bush conservatives. That's something I can't get on board with, but that doesn't make them "racists".
The workaround for firefox seems to be an edit to your compreg.dat.
For windows
c:\Documents and Settings\$USER\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\default.random\compr eg.dat
For UNIX
~/.mozilla/firefox/default.random/compreg.dat
Removing the line that references IDN makes the problem go away. Using Find, there was a single reference for the UNIX host and 2 for the Win32 host. Removing the lines and restarting the browser makes the attack fail regardless of the about:config/userprefs.js value.
Here's an example entry.
It's good that MS gives a lot of money to Washington, because they've screwed the state out of millions, maybe even billions, more. Please read this article for more details.
Democrats were only accused of doing this by the Republicans and only laptops (the easiest and most valuable hardware to steal) were taken, quickly from an office where they were plainly visible from the street.
Engaging in vandalism against Bush offices by teenagers is not quite as bad as tearing up valid registrations.
Criminally negligent op-ed pieces do not facts make.
Accusing a group of committing illegal activities with no evidence is a typical Republican tactic.
Press releases aimed at creating a non-existant scandal and failing are pretty weak as a source.
Finally, defrauding a company by making up fake voter registrations to earn more money in a $9 per hour job is not making people think they are registered when they are not.
According to the Center for Responsive Politics, which runs the Opensecrets.org Web site, during the 2004 election cycle the RNC paid ACS $1.2 million for software licenses and computer maintenance and slightly more than $1 million to ADCS for maintenance and "voter data."
Seems that the RNC is still using the "front company for Indian firms" and that they don't appear to care if the work is still being outsourced. Don't jump to any conclusions, there is no evidence that any work is still being outsourced, just evidence that they're using the same company that has outsource in the past.
In which case, a 3270 terminal isn't going to do them much good, is it?
Mainframes are powerful computers with powerful and modern OSes They're so modern, some have even been built this year. Do you really think the only way to access one is the same way they did in the 1950s?
...given that the Windows installer nowadays takes longer than most *nix installers, and *then* you have to download and install all of the service packs and patches. Then you have to...
You left out, download/install all of the drivers (at least for your network card). What new computer on which you are installing Windows is supported by the drivers that come with a 3 year old OS?
For me, installing XP on a new PC, I needed drivers for the motherboard (ide,agp) 2 reboots, video driver reboot, audio card (the provided ones did not work and I had to download newer ones for the maker of the audio chip and not the motherboard maker) reboot, and network card reboot. Network card last for obvious security reasons. Thank Bill for XP's fast reboot.
Republicans don't care about people outside the U.S. Have you not been paying attention?!:)
The above was meant to be humorous toward the parent poster and a slight slam against our conservative leadership, which, if I may make an intelligent argument here, suck.
No it isn't. Most Linux distros are full of the same creature feep as Windows, while the *BSDs are minimalist in comparison.
While true, the parent poster's comment is also still true: It is the same software. So, if you're running a server using the Mandrake Desktop, you've either gotta remove 95% of the packages installed or unplug the network cable. So, my point is this: We're all correct here. Now, let's go out, get a beer, and discuss important things like how we're going to get Mr. Bush out of office.
Idiots are not likely to keep up with updates and are much more likely to run random executable from email.
So, why were the incompetently configured Windows boxes the only ones thrown out. Incompent sysadmins/users are everywhere and I think it's a given that a relatively competent linux admin can keep their box secure easily.
So, throw out the data on idiots and only look at competent users running correctly configured systems and you'll find linux is attacked more.
But broken into less.
it only helps you narrow down your options
To the point the results give you what you want.
Morons that have Outlook set up to automatically download and execute attachments
Outlook may be able to be tricked or taken advantage of to execute attachements. It may be bubble gummy and impossible to get to work and look the way you want. Overall, it may just suck like nothing has sucked before. However, I'm pretty sure there is no setting labeled, "Automatically download and run any executable I receive via e-mail."

Read the Customizing and Developing links to learn all you need to know.
Drupal is very easy to customize. We turned it into a really cool location based community now complete with Google Maps. A place where you can share cool (or interesting, or weird) locations related to almost any interest.
Then, you can take them with you on your handheld.
I've now lived more of my life outside of Tulsa, but I still love it.

Prove it.
And, I think you know how.
It is important to point out that handheld sales do NOT include smartphones. Check out the caveats at the end of this article.
If you count Palm's Treo sales, they are neither losing to Microsoft, nor shrinking their sales.
Just an FYI.
I did not know that they were racist.
Neither did I. So, I went to their site and read a little. They appear to be right-wing pro-Bush conservatives. That's something I can't get on board with, but that doesn't make them "racists".
This one DID require me to restart the browser.
I have:
- The Receipt
- The Box
- The CD
- Credit Card Statement
- Tax form showing itemized deduction of said Crappy(tm) software
But, no product key.Yes, I agree, I should have to buy another copy. Absolutely!

About once every 5 years.

Re-installing because a new version of Slackware came out is not a crash!
Who's going to tell them now that they should upgrade their FireFox to the fixed version, because there was a problem?
Firefox.

Gentoo is a faster install than that!
is there a comprehensive list of vendors somewhere who provide linux drivers with their hardware?
Not a list of hardware providers supporting Linux, but of devices that are supported by linux can be found at LFriendly.
...setting up linux servers with your favorite webserver and hosting Anti-Bush websites.
Actually, I have to be honest with you, I don't care what your Anti-Bush website runs on. Just make the site, please.
Oh, and vote against him, too. That's key.
