  1. Re:I like the computational challenge solution bet on Microsoft, Yahoo Investigate Spam Solution · · Score: 1

    not if users can set certain servers as no-challenge, that way the recieving machine simply asks the mailserve "did you send this?"

  2. Re:smokescreen on Microsoft, Yahoo Investigate Spam Solution · · Score: 2, Interesting

    if a system like that was imlemented then it would also make paypal obsolete entirely, it would be trivial to include a "big stamp" that could be set to $x.yz in order to pay for things

  3. Re:$ per bug! on Mario Monti Fines Microsoft 100 Million? · · Score: 1

    That's what, about a dollar per security hole in MS products?

    that would bankrupt them

  4. Re:There is a bad joke here someplace... on Learning (And Harvesting) from Extremophiles · · Score: 3, Funny

    those are pedophiles

  5. Re:Invitrogen on Learning (And Harvesting) from Extremophiles · · Score: 5, Insightful

    did they patent a METHOD for harvesting polymerase enzyme or just the harvesting, if they patented a method then good for them, the invent something and should make money off it, if they patened all forms of extraction then they can burn in hell

    I have to thank you for linking that program,

    it is MATRIX like in the movie, meant to aid in the control of every aspect of our lives /tinfoil hat

  9. Re:won't work on Digital Camera Image Verification · · Score: 2, Insightful

    all it would take would be for someone to tear apart the camera and replace the image sensor with a USB cable so that the camera would sign the image going onto the card, then put the card into a different camera, unless the camera also wrote it's serial number to part of the image in a way that could not be hacked (yea right) this verification would be useless if someone really wanted to fake a digital image

    Best...troll...ever.

  11. Re:I don't hate you... on A Look at Microsoft's Regulatory Problems · · Score: 1

    Windows is just as capable as linux when it comes to avoiding viruses... you can either disconnect it from the internet or install linux, either of which will secure windows...

    but seriously i keep my machine clean and i download alot of stuff, just gotta know who you are DLing from and practice good computing(NOT RELY ON A VIRUS SCANNER) all a virus scanner does is makes you think you are safe... i actually don't have one installed ( i use the symantec web based scan periodically to make sure i'm not infected) and i don't use either IE or Outlook(express), as those are two of the biggest ways for viruses to infect windows

    it's free as in warez

  15. Re:Another problem this causes: on Anti-Virus Companies: Tenacious Spammers · · Score: 1

    let's see.... the ISP gives you an IP, that IP connects to the mail server and tries to send a virus.... are saying that the mail server can't tell who you are? Hell i can't even send(but can get) email when i am off campus so the mail server certainly IS aware of your IP address

  17. Re:Another problem this causes: on Anti-Virus Companies: Tenacious Spammers · · Score: 1

    actually the provider DOES KNOW if a virus was sent and by whom, an outgoing intercept such as the one described would not be fooled because the user connects directly to the isp mail server to send or sends the mail directly if running a mailserver, you can lie about where a message came from but not who you are

  18. Re:Didn't anyone see "THE NET" ? :) on Anti-Virus Companies: Tenacious Spammers · · Score: 1

    when you say "They probably control all of the media" do you mean security software companies or Jews? /troll

  19. Re:Another problem this causes: on Anti-Virus Companies: Tenacious Spammers · · Score: 1

    actually this seems like a very responsible thing to do, disabling it during an outbreak would be better, but knowing that 1337h4x0r@region.rr.com tried to send you a virus would be nice if you wanted to prosecute him/her for it (assuming the virus is not a mass mailer virus which sends itself)

    trashing -> smashing;

    bolt cutters -> bolt action rifles

  21. Re:I've gotten AV email... on Anti-Virus Companies: Tenacious Spammers · · Score: 1

    You just can't prevent against people receiving an EXE in email and running it! actually you can filter email attachments fairly easily to deny any executable code... or even better deny any unrecognized attachments and have the scanner look through attached zip archives for executable code

    I read it as referring to a bouncer, like in a club, that throws you out if you don't belong

  23. Re:Draft an RFC? on Anti-Virus Companies: Tenacious Spammers · · Score: 1

    labeling win32/ before every virus and worm name would be pointless... just leave it off and add a foo/ if the virus targeted a different platform or only a portion of the platform, such as 9x/ NTXP/ linux/ bsd/ nix/...

  24. Re:Actual Cost of a Virus / SCO on What's The Actual Cost of A Virus? · · Score: 1

    Why not set the mail filter to nuke and "your computer sent an infected message"

  25. Re:Does it really matter though? on DNS Root Servers Outside US Surpass Those Inside · · Score: 1

    that is because any domain is capable of creating subdomains, yours could be personalwebsite.null and later you could give a friend friend.personalwebsite.null and (s)he could give out friendofafriend.friend.personalwebsite.null thus every domain needs an AUP in order to curb abuse
