Having being diagnosed, and having surgery and chemotherapy for this (like Lance Armstrong et al), there is a worrying trend.
There is no known cause of this cancer scientifically proved, but after getting this cancer, and speaking 'hear say' to consultants, doctors. etc. one theory is that estrogen (oestrogen), the female hormone, is being dumped into the environment from products (baby products, nappies etc.). This chemical doesn't break down in nature - so drinking water, cows milk, fish, meat... all contain this bumped chemical up that would not otherwise be there.
Too see how bad it is, there are even scientific reports of fish changing sex in estrogen rich rivers - do a google on this.
This is not a subject to laugh at.
The only reasonable cause that the UK current dictatorship propose this will be due to them added another 'steath tax'. I beat my last penny there will be a tax introduced on media that is copied - and it will be sourced at purchase.
... you will get a new chip delivered every first Tuesday in 'snail mail' with instructions for removing the old chip and soldering and what not on how to install the new chip update due to 'important "critical" security updates".
The oil people (Bush included) will do whatever to keep their monoploy - oil runs the world finances, so to actually admit oil is running out will destroy their wealth overnight. These people will not do a thing to move to other alternatives, nor either spend R&S to source them.
...I think this is only relevant to IE and MS [again]. As to sending commands to a 'router' to turn on wireless (if I even had a router that had wireless) is pants unless the 'owner' of the router wasn't the person using it (i.e. an ISP package). The interface must be open to allow this to happen.
So, the problem is with MS (again) and 'harry home owner' type people that don't have a clue about anything, so just run with the flow [OK].
...how it's Microsoft that is making all the noises about open source. The open source community doesn't give two hoots, I expect, no matter what MS say.
Treat it as you would a bear trap. Say away from MS speak at all costs.
How the fuck can two people doing third party apps be *better* than the people that design the frigging OS? Sure, they might be more on the ball as coders, but no way does any company buy another one because they have better engineers with more knowledge of their own bloody product.
I am pretty sure that 'mf2lro8sw03ufvnsq034jfowr18f3cszc20vmw' is a registry key for 'My Documents'. It had to be encrypted for 2 reasons:
1) Only you and MS can open 'My Documents' 2) They haven't yet worked out how to really have spaces in file names lusers use. [cue: spinning hour glass]
What will happen here is once this starts to get a foothold, it will not stop advancing from the original 'reason'.
i.e. data retention under the guise 'terrorists' will slowly degrade into a state 'eye' of everything you do, and even slight regressions against the law you will be pulled up. Remember speed cameras? Now they are used to monitor road users/collect revenue, nothing to do with overspeeding much anymore.
The strange thing is, 'terrorists' would then move back to snail mail to correspond. Safe, unmonitored and secure (but a little slow).
Why should they? If a 'standard' is a standard, and a company that has major market share then changes it to deliberately break that standard to stop competition, that is criminal.
All cars run on petrol (the standard). MS make a cheap car using the standard petrol that is open. People buy it, and it becomes the market share. MS then change the car so that you have to use MS petrol to run the car - no other petrol works - all other petrol is useless.
But you forget - and so does a lot of people - that once-upon-a-time all this 'interoperability' was open - a standard of communicating between network nodes on all sorts of hardware and OSes.
Fair enough, at the time, there wasn't much around in the public arena/small businesses and very few networked nodes (computers) on the 'Internet' so MS bridged that gap.
But then once that happened, and MS started to have the major market share, they CHANGE the open protocols to only work on their OS/servers... locking all the others out, enabling them to tie-in/lockout and run a monopoly.
This is repeated throughout MS history.
So MS are criminal in their behaviour throughout the last 20 years, and will do anything to stop a 'non-MS' machine communicating with their own networks even if it all started and is/from open standards and protocols.

I am sure Microsoft have their own view on this, so bollocks to standards.
LOLOLOL. Brilliant.
Thank fuck for that - I thought I was deaf.

Oh Yea?
Yes, they missed a . on page 102, paragraph 14.

Was it Troy Tempest, Phones, or even Marina??

Welcome to Mad Max very soon.
Install GNU/Linux. All the worms and trojans would go too.

This is a 'remove' job by MS - no doubt about it.
So how do you do space walks then to fix things (etc.)? Silly comment...

I mean, they are the 'Happy Shopper' company of the PC World (pun intended).
You will need at least a 1GB NIC also to allow the worms/spam and trojans to be more efficient.
On a side note, does the spinning hourglass speed up (i.e. rotations, not time...) when it decides to bomb out?

Embrace, extend, extinguish.
...innovation from MS. Let the world rejoice!
