In the UK, it is a certain percentage of the total work - I think 10%. It states that this applies to individual poems, when they appear in a collection in a book, so I guess DeCSS would be a "poem", and the linux kernel would be an "enclyclopaedia".
DeCSS is a tool which is allegedly used to assist in copying DVDs. There is nothing you could argue that Trillian is assisting in copying, as far as I am aware.
Every time you receive a spam, you place an order for whatever it is using fake details. Then the spammers won't be able to tell the real orders from the fake ones.
There are two types of spam this won't work for - premium rate phone calls, and stock pumping scams.
Yes, the European Declartion of Human Rights has a bit about freedom of speech.
It also has a bit about the right to privacy and peacful enjoyment of your property.
I'm not trying to prevent these spammers from telling everyone about their penis enlargement pills. I'm trying to prevent them from using *my* computer equipment and *my* bandwidth to do it, at *my* expense.
They are at perfect liberty to take out banner ads, keyword ads, adverts in the papers / TV and so on, and pay the appropriate rate for them.
Mandrake wasn't around in 1993. At that time, the GNU project was still a collection of tools that you could use on other unix operating systems. Linus had just started writing his kernel for it.
By downloading it, you are making a copy, possibly without the permission of the copyright holder. If it isn't covered by fair use, then it is unlawful.
If however, you made a copy lawfully (eg you back up your CD to your computer in mp3/ogg format) and happen to store it in your kazaa shared folder, I don't think you are doing anything wrong. They copy you made is covered by fair use and as you are not the one making the unauthorised copies. I can't see what you are doing wrong.
This defence was tried in RIAA v NYCFashionGirl, but it was rejected due to evidence from the RIAA that it they had been downloaded from Napster rather than on lack of legal merit.
There is already a viable alternative to Office 2003. It is called Office XP.
Unless Microsoft can come up with something better than the competition (previous versions plus Star Office etc), then people aren't going to buy it.
Something that doesn't allow people to share documents with people that use these alternative systems isn't going to get much business.
Slashdot Mirror
If the find matching fragments that go something like
/*some code*/
#include
int main(void)
{
return 0;
}
ie the sort of stuff you learn on your first day of c programming,
then that probably isn't a violation of the sys5 copyright.
Santa Cruz Operation
That is where the company they bought it from (now Tarrantella) is based.

or the MS style
"Please do not make illegal copies of this disk"
The issue is that anyone can go to the court with an IP address and date/time, say that they were infringing their copyright and get their address.
It may have nothing to do with copyright, they might just want to stalk them.
A Canon S750 for my writing requirements.
Oh wait, you mean one of those things?
Switch your site to .uk

Does that not mean verified cryptographic signatures such as PGP/GPG or whatever MS uses?
Filling in a web form with your details doesn't really count, as there is plausable deniability that you did it.
The fact that prices are quoted in US$ is a giveaway.
The use of american rather than english words also helps
Another idea is this ...
Spam the spammers

In the UK, Natwest bank (owned by the Royal Bank of Scotland) is already using Windows NT 4 to power their ATMs.
You do frequently have to wait for the machine to reboot before you can use it, and you sometimes see strange error messages on the screen.
I'm not aware of any reports of it giving out the wrong amount of cash though.

I'll probably get modded down as a troll for this, but my favourite mouse is from Microsoft - an optical wheel mouse.
They are much better at making mice than at making operating systemts.

The problem with a Trade Secret case would be that if it is already published on their web site, it can hardly be called a trade secret.
Yes they can. They own the trademark to "Compact Disk" and "CD", and they only license it to people who comply with the red book standard.
