With iSkoot, You Can Now Make and Receive FREE Phone Calls with Any Cell Phone Through Skype
from the article (aka RTFA)
Making outbound calls is a little more complicated. After registering the cellphone number with iSkoot, the user creates and sends a text message to the e-mail address dial@iskoot.com. The text message can contain either a phone number, a Skype speed-dial number, or a screen name for someone in the user's Skype ''buddy list."
he wants a browser he gets a browser. i wasn't aware that people who were willing to hack their PSP had moral problems with using a ripped browser rather than a homebrew browser.
open proxies are harder to find. you can't simply click "next next finish" and be good to go. if you think using your ISP's proxy is anonymous you're very naive.
Installing XP SP2 (which includes IE SP2) has resolved a tonne of browser problems for me and a lot of windoze techs that I know. No I don't mean spyware/adware, I simply mean corrupted browsers that won't display forms properly, or have DLL problems etc.
I can sneak a quick PC game at work here and there, that can't be said about console games, I don't have a TV, and an XBOX would look a bit out of place in my office.
you do realize that LOCAL can mean public.. yes if you're on 192.168.0.0/16 its a private IP, but if your on a cable modem with no router you would be allowing anyone on your subnet ping you.. If you can't ping a client from your server it's your own fault. You can fully control the XP2 firewall using group policy to disable it when it is truly LOCAL
I believe he's actually referring to a Windows 98 bug that has been fixed for over 5 years now.
Oddly searching for "windows 98 reboot bug" brought up way too many irrelevant references.. who would have guessed that windows, reboot, and bug would be on the same page?
hey wow, i attracted a Troll! Ignorant people act like these terms are hidden, and written in small print. They are actually displayed quite prominently in a link on blockbuster.com
After 7 days beyond the due date, Blockbuster will automatically convert the rental to a purchase on the 8th day and will charge the member the selling price for the item in effect at the time of the rental, minus the rental fee paid. Member then has 30 days to return the product and receive a credit for the selling price charged, less a $1.25 restocking fee.
You don't HAVE to buy it. If you take the movie back they will refund the purchase, and charge you a small "restocking fee". You don't have to pay any late fees, and you don't HAVE to buy the movie. You simply have to pay a restocking fee. Granted its still a 'fee', its one heck of a lot cheaper than late fees.

everyone keeps making smart assed comments about how people buy bikes for how loud they are. the fact of the matter is that loud pipes save lives. if people can hear you coming they at least know that a motorbike is in the area.
It's quite common for random processes (like coin tosses) to get unlikely results here and there, like runs of six heads in a row. Over a very long time, it evens out, but it's hard for us to envision that. "We often interpret and impose patterns on random processes," he says, adding that this might be expected in the case of music, which evokes strong emotions. Paul Kocher, president of Cryptography Research, puts it another way: "Our brains aren't wired to understand randomness."
Which explains why so many people insist on losing money at casinos. Especially roulette. Yes I know its a long quote, for a short comment.. but what can a guy do?
unless the oil industry funds a green energy. they have to be looking for an out at some point. oil is not renewable, and they have a lot of money to throw at new forms of energy to fill their pocketbooks
I was not saying that the virus would evolve to self infect, I am more worried about the virus that attacks a known vulnerability, and then cannot be cleaned, or killed.
The problem with this is that it does not solve the warez problem that the ASP was designed to do. If you can run it in an "offline" mode, then you can download a copy and fill your offline cache and not pay for the software.
One of them works in your laptop as you are driving down an unknown road in the middle of no where, and one works when you are sitting at your desk. You are comparing apples to oranges.

Try "The Suffering". It looks better, has a better story, is scarier, and the lighting doesn't suck.
Lastly, how many people can you think of running pirated WindozeXP that were so impressed with the product that they bought it?
No one.. but I know plenty of people that priated it and then were cut off by SP1 and SP2 so they went out and bought it.

or on the flip side, how about when they put as much money into making a CD that they do into making a DVD

I agree.. I think parent just likes sharing files and is unhappy with today's results being given to him by his/her favorite torrent site
Back when I was single I wished that there were warnings like:
WARNING PERSON IS USING PICTURE FROM 3 YEARS AGO AND HAS SINCE BECOME ADDICTED TO CHOCOLATE CAKE
or
WARNING PERSON HAS NOT BEEN SCREENED FOR EXCESSIVE BODY ODOR
and finally
WARNING PERSON HAS AN IQ BELOW 50 AND LOVES TALKING ABOUT THEMSELF

I wonder how long until the first virus based on this code is released?
