  1. Re:One wonders what the internal policies are ... on NetGear Also Has Remote Access Wide Open · · Score: 2, Insightful

    they are normally there for the company to protect them selfs.

    Stupid user messes up the router.

    They phone tech support "i can't get onto my routers access page, i changed and lost the password"...

    "two seconds sir, prove this is your ip"

    they run some tests to check its whos on the phone..

    "there you go sir, your new password is ******, you may now change the settings again"....

    You ever tried to talk to a noob thru flashing the firmware on their router over the phone?

  2. Re:No. on Microsoft Changes Tune Again On SP2 Installs · · Score: 0

    Oh they know about them alright, the problem is they appear 100x over, and how do they know which one of these was the orginial.

    Plus a normal user will go "shit, i have a priate copy, must go to the shop and buy new copy now".....

    Just what m$ want.

  4. That sux on Overcoming MAPS Reverse-Lookup Oppression? · · Score: 0

    That indeed sux.

    But appart from changing isp, im not sure what else you can do :(.

    Im not to hot on the whole issue, but could some kinda mail forwarding work? Im guessing it wouldn't but its just a suggestion.

    Good luck with it all.

  9. Re:look and feel? on Microsoft, Sony Announce iPod Competitors · · Score: 1, Insightful

    The look and Feel of the Ipod is what makes it so popular, its now a item of STATUS and not of use to some. Why do you think the adverts dont actually play much music? Why do you think the posters only show its "looks" and not its audio propities...?

  10. Less $$ = More problems? on Microsoft, Sony Announce iPod Competitors · · Score: 0

    Ipods are over priced peices of shi%. but thats not hte point, the point is that everything in this area is over priced atm. We need someone to produce a "low" cost version, it might not last as long, but we wont care, for when it dies we will have one 10x the size. Plus this is m$ meaning it wont work on apple / linux ?

    FP, money making ffs! No one wil buy that, I HOPE!

  13. It might mean better looking games but... on Gaming Beauty Is Only Pixel Deep · · Score: 1, Interesting

    It wont mean the games will play better, feel better and act better. it wont make games any more interesting no matter how manytimes they rewrite that same story line.... We need games that explore new ideas, not better graphics. Hell im still playing wc3!

  17. Re:Cool and all on Make A Hole - And Sustain It Indefinitely · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Firstly, i would guess that the inside of this structure is PERFECTLY round. I mean, so 100% perfect, something which we cannot create atm. Which will then be used some how. (like creating ROUND m&ms?). Still, no one know what it all means?

  18. Was it a big joke / mistake? on Sasser Author Under Arrest, Say German Police · · Score: 1

    Anyone else get the feeling that this worm, was either a test, or a big mistake, someone wrote it (most prob this guy) and not beliving that it would work (like T33kid with blaster) set it free, or set it free in a closed network, not relising the effect that it would have? Still, just shows the problems with the world today.

  19. Re:Not an issue for OS X users on Spyware Becoming Worst Tech Support Problem · · Score: 1
