Viruses don't disable rootkits, they install them. Rootkits are replacement system programs/libraries to hide the intruder presence/activity on your computer
I don't know much about international law but I would guess child porn is illegal in every country worldwide. So why blocking the sites if you have a chance to forward the info to the local police to bring down the site.
Perhaps you don't even know the word's definition.
A "conservative" is someone who wants things to stay the way they are which means his decisions depend on the laws/morals/... a few decades ago.
I just hope we lose SG-1 BEFORE it goes downhill and everyone remembers it for what it was until now and not for the bad last season nobody really liked like so many other shows.
Isn't it ironic how the same democracy that gets installed in Afghanistan and Iraq by the Bush Administration fails miserably in almost all countries using it for a long period of time. It isn't only the U.S. that has the problem you describe, at least here in Germany we suffer from the 2-party-system as well. They are named different than the U.S. ones but basically both do the same when elected and everyone in the general population with the smallest bit of a brain sees how the system fails miserably yet nobody changes anything because we all live too well to risk a real revolution and realize anything short of a totally new system of Government won't change anything.
Then why is it that my Linux Desktop, using Open Source Software almost exclusively (Opera being the exception) doesn't have one single Java App or Library in the whole dependency tree of all the apps I use? After all there are lots of C, C++, Perl, Python and Ruby apps and libs.
Why is it that anytime someone asks for an example of a decent Java App the Java Fanboys come up with either Eclipse (doesn't count, only useful with Java) or Azureus?
Why is it I have to install old versions of the Java Runtime to run certain InstallAnywhere Installers (like Borland Together, needs 1.3.1, didn't run with 1.4.2 runtime, needed it because a University Software Engineering Course insisted on it). Never had that problem with Perl or Python.
Sure, you may have caught lots of PHBs with all that hype around Java but how much of it really pays off in the real world?
Who the hell came up with the idea that we, the Open Source community, want everyone using Open Source even at the price of all Open Source Software looking and behaving exactly like MS Software?
He probably is one of the majority of Open Source followers thinking Mono will be sued by MS some time in the future and all the effort put into it will be wasted.
The problem of sending 10 billion identical emails is basically parallizable to 10 billion pcs without a problem, timing isn't important, only small amounts of data must be transfered to and from a controlling central host,...
DDOS attacks require timing accuracy of a few seconds, better isn't necessary if you have a lot more capacity than needed (which is no problem if you don't pay for it).
Most legal applications for clusters, grid computing,... are much more difficult since either each step of the algorithm depends on the previous one and can't be executed before that one is finished or you have real time constraints or huge amounts of data which don't allow you to use hosts far away or with low bandwidth.
You can't migrate single threads per definition. You have to have a duplicate of the whole adress space of the process running the thread (of course you can optimize by copy-on-write but you can do that when forking processes as well) and since a thread+adress space makes a new process it isn't really a thread by any known definition but another process.
I don't know about which part of networking you are talking but sockets in Java are about as complicated as the concept can be implemented. Most other high-level languages I know do it a lot more intuitive and e.g. Perl or Python run on at least as many different platforms as Java does.
Windows XP or earlier can't open RAR files natively as far as I'm aware
It can't open ANY archive format natively unless you count the broken implementation of zip that causes the Explorer to use 99% CPU time for a LONG time when confronted with a broken zip file (read: when opening a folder containing such a file).
You know you have to use the matching kernel module to get cpufreq to work with your processor?
I use it for approximately 2 years now on an AMD CPU laptop (Athlon XP 1600+) and I don't believe your newer CPU isn't supported while mine has all the features you claim yours hasn't.

But AFAIK VMware's is not.
That might be more the fault of Yahoo looking like a random ad-host and less the fault of grandma or mom and dad.

Works in Opera too although here it simply changes the Zoom Factor (size of everything, not just font-size).
Actually it is a bad idea as customers are more likely to save those names in a file to copy&paste them if they are totally unreadable.

AFAIK Gentoo works fine on PowerPC so if all the software you need compiles on PPC you could use the exact same steps to get it working on Mac mini.

I suspected I wasn't the only one. Might have something to do with me not using gnome nor kde (but using linux as primary OS).
This is why most smart people don't write open source software in Java nor in Mono.
You could simply emulate the Console on the PC. That doesn't get rid of the poor interface design of console games though.
The problems are different.

They should have used something that could be abbrevated as "IP".
It is a great way for BOFH to annoy their users.
A smartphone is just a PDA, it just has the phone functionality added.
