We had a lesser, but similar situation at the company where I work. This guy applied for a programming job, and his entire coding experience consisted of writing spamming tools.
He'd openly, and seemingly without shame, listed all his spammer tools on his CV (resume for you over-the-pond types)
I desperately tried to get the guy doing the recruiting to hire him, just so I'd get an opportunity to beat the shit out of the filthy bastard.
Yeah, they do that on the terrestrial channels too. Bit of a stupid thing to do really - previously we'd tolerate the ads, but now they're so DAMN LOUD ALL THE TIME we hit the mute button.
Dude, it doesn't matter how many hoops you make people jump through, they'll still infect their machines because they are stupid
If you included some C source for a virus, included instructions on how to download and install GCC, and then instructions on how to compile and run the virus, people would still get infected
You'd just have to make sure you worded the email right - like saying it would download nude pictures of some female celebrity...
Riiiightt. SO, you think they'll set up a transponder to read your plates, AND a camera to take a picture of your car, AND set up a computer to compare the color of your car (in what lighting conditions?) to the color car the plate is registered to??
I fix my brother's computer, and he fixes my car (he's a bit of a genius with anything automotive).
Not as interesting as when I swapped a dead DIMM from my sister in law's machine though - I got a can of chocolate sperm from that (sis-in-law is an Ann Summers rep, wife was going to a hen party).

Do you write the technobabble for Star Trek?

It's completely different. Programming is NOT art.
And there speaks someone who knows absolutely fuck all about programming.

I get this - mozilla takes a good few seconds (5-10) to start up compared to IE. (Athlon 1800 @1.8GHz, 512Mb RAM)
I put up with this, because IE is a stinking piece of shit.

You don't live in the UK, do you?
