  1. This is already happening in my country on Vonage Says VoIP Traffic Blocked By Providers · · Score: 3, Interesting

    The mail ISP in my country, a former monopolist (and almost sole ISP) is tring this stunt. However, there are alot of unaware people falling for their 'great service'. But basically they are giving private IPs, and NATiing all their traffic on that service to one public IP, so VOIP cannot work on that service. And of course the package they offer with VOIP capabilties are much higer priced than the other service. And yes, they are also the main telephone company. They have very little compeition in land lines.

    You do realise that this was a 6 month old bug, don't you?

    I have to aggree to you on that. I personally think we need to allow nature to choose it's path more. We are very much altering the ways things should go...natural selection, etc. Just my $0.02

    What about an IDE HDD in a external drive case (USB)? That's what I use, but I don't have much to spend.

  6. Re:Spam activity after Ebay on Some Ways To Avoid Spam On Gmail · · Score: 1

    I don't normally post on Slashdot, but I just had to confirm this. I have a gmail account to, but when I signed up for an eBay account (last month) on an address of my own domain (not my gmail address), I started getting alot more smap too. The worse part is these additional spam got started getting though my Mozilla junk mail filters.

  7. Re:Screw machine learning... on Incorporating Machine Learning into Firefox 2.0? · · Score: 1

    Ahh, forgive my ignorance...yes it just regexes the bookmark titles/urls .... I though that's what you meant, as I myself have had this help me numerous times before. That would be a very cool feature, an actual search of all bookmarked pages. My bad for the misunderstanding.

  8. Re:Screw machine learning... on Incorporating Machine Learning into Firefox 2.0? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Just wanted to let you know that Netscape 6.1 has searchable bookmarks, at least the one I have installed searches my bookmarks.
