I've had that with other service packs as well. To be honest, if I had the time, I would wipe the machine, re-install XP, add the service packs and then re-install the apps. If I had the time...
As far as I understand this, the team who are attempting to create this model are doing a good job. They are starting from a known point, 380,000 mill after the big bang, and working towards today. They are using current knowledge, then making assumptions, which they state, to make the problem workable in real time. So they run the simulation and, suprise suprise, it does not match what we can observe today. In which case they will go back to the drawing board and try again. Maybe in a few years time computers will have advanced enough that they can work with a much larger number of mass points, thus allowing them to refine the model even more. Nothing wrong with that, as far as I am concerned.
As an aside, have those scientists who are predicting global warming in 50 years done the same kind of work with their models? They can't seem to get their local (micro) forcasts to work too well but maybe their global (macro) forcasts work better.
Sorry, a quick look at wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AES tells me that it was developed by a couple of Belgians. Should have looked before I wrote.
Besides, AES was created in Europe, I think by the Danish, and is an open standard of encryption. This means that it has undergone a lot of peer reviews and is supposedly a lot stronger because of that process. Still, there is nothing to stop the Danes from restricting it Oops too late - it is already out there.
As an outside observer (I am British) who does not really understand your system, could somebody explain part of it to me. From what I have read so far, the November US elections will be tallyed in a number of States using a system that is known to be flawed. This flaw is of such magnitude that the result in each of those states is likely to be contested by one or the other of the parties involved (the looser). I know I would if I had invested millions in getting elected. Each query will result in a court case (where?) which will take time to resolve. Meanwhile, who runs your country? What effect would this kind of fiasco have on your stock market? Maybe I am not an outside observer after all, because what kind of effect would it have on _my_ stock market and my investments, such as they are!
Also some are held in Gitmo, deported back to their own country, where they are held for a short period then released because they are not guilty (or it cannot be proved) of anything. See the case the british citizens (residents of Dudley).
You are right - it could be a boon for business but the problem is, as usual, getting people to use it. Example - your *good* users set up a My Documents\Customer Name\Recent Postings etc. system and can usually find what they need very quickly. Lots of other users just dump it where convenient at the time. This is an educational problem, and one that will never go away, unless MS can come up with something really world (or user) beating. Keyword searching within documents will cover at lot of it but I think Nana searches will be difficult!

Perhaps they should have worked with the manufacturers of Outlook, to make sure that mail does not stay in the Outbox until you open up another item.
Probably not.

And politicians, don't forget them.
I like the one available now fromt the Register http://www.cashncarrion.co.uk/cnb/shop/cashncarrio n. There are 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those wo don't.

Thats already been done - it was used to launch the red stone that Shepard and Grissom used.

I agree with you - definately bloatware. But when has that stopped Microsoft?
