fortunately it has a vb compiler and the restriction on resultion in NT doesn't work if you use API calls. hooray for the only 1024x768 res in the room.

i program in VB (although im learning C++), but i would be embarrased if anybody thought i was godly because of it (see my sig for some stuff i wrote in vb).
ARGH! I made a website for my mums boss last year. He was such an arsehole. He was convinced that computers were easy to use, programming is easy and all that crap. What topped it off, is despite computers being so easy, the only way he knew of opening outlook was to open internet explorer and click on the envelope at the top.
i hate people.
how come i get reduundant, for something original (all of that stuff cant have been said already, surely?), and your already at 2 for adding onto what i said, with more of the same?

why not have the root DNS servers block pornographic sites, and redirect them to a "dirty bastard, we've logged your IP - expect a visit from mr pig" website - it could propagate to the whole internet within 48 hours. i know we are talking individual sites/virtual serverts, so block the entire site if they host kiddie porn. if its tripod or whatever, just tip them off to remove the sites or they'l get blocked too.
obv people could use IP addresses, but people could go through a web proxy using this method. i bet most paedo's wouldn't even know what an IP is anyway.
1) blocking them is quicker 2) if theyre hosted outside the country, especially in a country with no laws on child porn (or countries that the laws aren't enforced
good point - if me and my g/f wanted to make a few quid from some sicko's, we could film ourselves having sex, and act a bit like its a rape - we're both overage and the act is perfectly legal. If i was a sicko who fantasized about rape, and my girlfriend didn't mind, we could role play - you cant have sex with kids legally, at all, ever.
we're not that odd, so we dont do that. well we're both odd, but we still dont
when freeserve depreciated one of their dial-up numbers, all attempts to access port 80 were forwarded to their http server on a page which explained how to change the number, and what to. - they blocked all other connections i think.
pain in the arse, but it could be useful if the same kind of thing was implemented if you were showing characteristics of running a worm, to redirect you to their free online virus scanner (or somebody elses). that way, you cant infect anybody else, but you can still use the online vius scanner to remove virus's (using an OCX).
this will carry on working, while nearly all worms are for windows. i imagine most people with other os's wouldn't get hit, not because of higher security neccessarily, but because they wouldn't spread well in a world where 90%+ boxes are windows, and even then, the less than 10% of boxes isn't one OS - there's mac, linux, free/open/net bsd, solaris, etc.
how much are keycard and keycard readers (and a few keycard writers for the IT dept?
get yours in the morning using your simple ID card and give it in at night to prevent some smart arse taking it home, buying a writer and copying someone elses.

no - one of the principles of capitalism and free trade are that you dont get bullied by the big evil gorilla and that startups have a chance

no wonder you posted anonymous coward - youre talking bollocks

my point was, windows XP pro doesn't come with exim (new verson of nmap does banner grabbing).
ARGH! i hate mods - me (the pairent) was OT, and you are all +5 funny and whatnot!
you missed out the age old 1)2)???3)profit 'joke'
but this is a common good, not for the interests of a single company and its share holders.
you could think of it the other way round - they are providing dns information for kp sites.
not that im blaming anyone other than the sicko's themselves (or their ISP's, if they keep hosting it)

'profit' was implied, as windows has such an amazing TCO - dont you look at the ads from OSDN
port linux to it
port bochs86 to it
run windown on it
play the windows version at an astonishingly bad fps/resolution
shit, your right, im still 17. i honestly forgot.
it was a hypothetical scenario though.
just pretend im 18, ok?
one thing ive never understood: why is it 16 to have sex, 18 to look at a naked woman?

we're not that odd, so we dont do that. well we're both odd, but we still dont
this means some sick bastard is checking these child porn sites - what a nice job for a paedo.
would the people in the job be suspected?
why would anybody want to post anti-popular-software (amongst /. readers) to slashdot, when slashdot accounts are free.
you should buy it because its good (definately worth it). if you dont want to - live with the small text ads at the top.
so you dont donate to open source projects then, and you only use free software because its free(loader), not because its free(dom)?
they do smaller text-only ads now.
if you buy opera, it goes away, forever/
also, you can read RSS feeds on a pane (i use it for slashdot and the register). there's integrated mail and the tabz system is great.
i couldn't live without opera anymore.
