Aivars Kalvans has submitted two great patches on bugzilla. One of them cuts 250 kb of malloc'ing for each tab you open in gnome-terminal. This will save me at least 5 MB on my desktop. It is still pretty messy (it was 500 kb per tab before his patch), and much worse than konsole (which takes 50 kb per tab).
P.S. This guy is a cousin of Ali G. Don't know what that ought to signify:)
It's just a proof that brain study passion is something hereditar:
Ali G: Is the brain's memory any good? C. Everett Koop: The brain's memory is perfect. Ali G: Then how come I can't remember me pin number? C. Everett Koop: Well... Ali G: I think it's got like a "4" in it... C. Everett Koop: I can give you a quick answer and say you're stupid. Ali G: Well, that's obviously not the real reason. C. Everett Koop: Well, it's the beginning of truth.
The problem is, the end users who will visit these types of sites
not quite... there are some cases in which a compromised web site can serve as a 'launch pad' for malware. There are "some" cases like this and not "a lot" because the vast majority of attacks are done by script kiddies who have no fsking idea what and how they are doing it.
I had one server compromised because of a web application vulnerability... and after finishing to diagnose, fix, patch and check I could only say: "Thanks God it wasn't someone who knew what and how to... [all my nightmares here]"
especially in IE (the same users who will open e-mails for free Vioxx or Rolex watches)
While I agree with what you say, I can't stop myself to ask: "How can you delete an email which might be full of malware without seeing it?". (I'm sure some might say it can be done... I even did it under OE by shift selecting the previous and next message, deleting all of them, undeleting the others) But the idea is that no potential malware should be executed automatically.
Users shouldn't be made responsible for design flaws or implementation faults.

Do not run Gnome at all. Now get me that bounty!!!
that's 15,496 words in fact.
I just took a look on the announcement and although it is dated on February 1st there seems to be no real news here.
Same old features are announced that I have in Beta 0.92.0.12.
So will we have announcements like this every time a software reaches 1.0 version?
... about Poland!!!
C'mon guys!!! How can a FP be redundant???
Is that U2's upgrade? Is it for the next black iPod?
It's mentioned in TFA that it uses the same vulnerability, hence you can follow the steps recomended by phpBB devs and upgrade to 2.0.11.
Source of the virus is available here and for the phpBB it's just regular update.
