    No but it can stop the use of SSN's that belong to dead people ! Or even people that are working 8 jobs in different corners of the countries.

    The thing is lots of people use dead peoples SSN and when they use none dead peoples SSN they use ones from id theft circles. So if the ID has been stolen they can track where it is used. Maybe take down the little fish who can lead us to the big fish.

    Around here they don't close them , instead they take government money to stay open. There goes my taxes towards paying for illegals to have healthcare when I myself can barely afford the insurance rates for medical !

    Oh what I wouldn't do for mod points right now to mod you up !

    They wonder why the line between the rich and middle class is growing , but the line between the middle class and poor is shrinking, the illegal's are taxing our medical system the worst. I see this daily , my state hands out free care like condoms at the free clinic.

    I have personally seen a business owner , not even american , not even legal ! Getting free care , then walking out of the hospital and getting into a new Hummer H2 , with the name of the resteraunt s he owns on the side , yet he has no valid license to show for free care and no social security number !

    The system is broke and since politico's have these people working for their friends and family they want to give amnesty. I think illegals are no more legal then the dope slinger carrying a unlicensed gun on the street. While 1 can result in death , they are both illegal and should be dealt with to the letter of the law. It's time we started to take care of our people in this country and get us back to where our forefathers intended on us being, the top.

    The illegals should be sent out of this country , they make the people who have come here legally ask why they bothered.

    I guess the politco's won't be happy until we become a 3rd world nation and the other nations surpass us.

    Please ! my wife works in a hopsital they caught one of the cleaning people stealing money , they watched her for a week. Every day she would western union the money to her family in Brazil. And on pay day she sent 1/2 of her checks there. You really think that the money stays in the US ? If so I have some land in Florida for sale, it's right on the everglades and has lots of green plants around!

  9. Re:Why must Sun on First OpenOffice Virus, Not In the Wild · · Score: 0

    It still does something you don't want it to ! What if it ran a simple wget command with uname as input? downloaded a nice little app to your tmp , maybe execute a bug for escalated privaledges and starts chowning your box ?

    Your tmp is read and write but not execute right ? Or your home directory ? Plenty of things it could do. hook a script to an alias , so when you type a simple command like ls it starts up a nice spam engine.

    Lots of creative uses for the execution of a script.

    The problem is Forbes is a business magazine (shill ?). To them everything not being bought at full price is stealing.

    Allofmp3 operates under Russian laws and operates by the letter of the law. We should not be trying to influence the worlds by having them follow our laws.

    The RIAA is pissed because it can't collect from the agency over there. It is not Allofmp3's problem it is the RIAA's problem. Deal with it like a normal company would , don't buy try and buy the people to fight your battle with my tax money ! Use your own damn money.

    With today's global economy, we outsource all these tech jobs, why can't we outsource other things over the internet as well ? Or is this global economy only so business can make more money off the little guys.

    Indeed it is difficult to not have the UN involved but it has to be done. ITU has to take control because they are not forced by corporate intrestes rather interworking standards. So if they do take it over it would likely become a better system. So long as the UN keeps thier mits out of the money pot it would run well.

    I know it is part of the UN but it can also be pushed out to its own organization under no ones umbrella which is what is actually needed.
