Take them to someplace like Maine that has a large moose population (a lot of large Bullwinkles), hogtie them, douse them with She-Moose In Heat, and let the fun begin.
Bullwinkle: *sniff sniff* Rocky: What's that smell?!? Bullwinkle:SHE-MOOSE, and she's in HEAT!! Bullwinkle:Hey Rocky, watch me pull a V1agr@ out of my hat! Hubba hubba, and don't wait up for me!
Well, since my 'blind supposition-fu' is not as strong as you, I can only go by my own experience.
Since everyone (yes, everyone) I know that uses Firefox also installed (or installed by me at their request) and uses NoScript. So all of your eye rolling makes no positive impression on me whatsoever.
As for your supposition- No. You're dead wrong on this one...Try again, you need the practice.
Windows and secure/security in the same sentance? You're funny! Whether it be Computer/Network security, or physical security, Windows are security's biggest nightmare-a weak point in any bulwark.
Also, thanks for the clarification. What this means to me is that I can go into the settings in IE 7 on my wife's PC (WinXP Pro SP2...so far I cannot get her to switch to Linux) and discourage this crap.
Anymore, just connecting to the internet is like fighting the Borg...they always adapt to the frequencies and continue to try to assimilate all.
Well, then I'll back off of you some, job burnout is a difficult problem to deal with in any field.
I've had my moments where I was ready to 'nuke the planet from orbit to be sure' myself.
I don't know the answer, but hard drugs and vodka only worked long enough for me to end up working in a convience store, so I don't have the answers for sure.
My apologies for 'breakin bad' on you.
But try to remember the satisfaction the 'greybeards' get by introducing n00bs to the tech...it gets passed on, and somewhat lessens the "sick of retards that need to be fed everything with a spoon..." effect if the knowledge is freely passed around.(more greybeards will exist to spread the load)
Or maybe being 'old as dirt' has quenched the flame of youth's ardor...I don't know for sure.
I tried both link's test button and got no response whatever.
IMHO, this must be something related to running Windows, as my Kubuntu 7.04 Feisty w/ Firefox 2.0.04 (with NoScript, Adblock, Adblock Filterset, and Flashblock) just does not act on this.
I guess I need to install some version of Windows to experience this...I feel deprived and left out!
Does this work with Firefox w/ NoScript on Windows?
From past experience, I have no doubts that it works with any version of IE on any Windows platform.
"Why does stupid shit like this keep getting posted to the front page?"
Usually it's because n00bs are born every day...that is the effect of life going on.
Remember, you were a n00b at one time. Did you get help from greybeards when you were a n00b? If you did, then back off the unhelpful attitude!
Elitist wannabe asshats like you are a dime a dozen, and no help to the community at large...either get over your attitude, or crawl back in your hole/mom's basement.
to use a fscked up analogy...if it were all your way all we would have in our Armed Forces would be Generals and Admirals....there would be no NCO's or privates, Airmaen, or Seamen.
To use the typical/. car analogy, I suppose you still drive one of these: "Running by February, 1893 and ready for road trials by September, 1893 the car built by Charles and Frank Duryea, brothers, was the first gasoline powered car in America. The first run on public roads was made on September 21, 1893 in Springfield, MA. They had purchased a used horse drawn buggy for $70 and installed a 4 HP, single cylinder gasoline engine. The car (buggy) had a friction transmission, spray carburetor and low tension ignition." from:(http://www.ausbcomp.com/~bbott/cars/carhist. htm) and eschew all others.
Back ontopic...all you had to do is either not post, or suggest he stick with RAID 5,6 or 10, and suggest he google for them to make a decision.
And yes, I do not apologise for calling you an asshat...if the shoe fits....! (yes, I love mixing metaphors!- so sue me!)
"Imagine if you as a human fell into a giant toilet. There would be nothing you could do to get out of it, and you would eventually die unless someone rescued you."
The easiest (but most time consuming) way that I know of to strip out any DRM, Watermarks, extra info, etc. from music files to to just convert them to a different lossless format. ie: convert DRM'ed MP3's to WAVE files, then you can convert them back to MP3's.
Without taking the time to think it all of the way through, this is just the first example that popped into my head- there are probably better and/or quicker ways, but you get the idea.
Besides, having seen some of the keyboards I've been exposed to in different jobs....how do they get through all of that crap to get fingerprints?
Forensic lab tech1: 'We've got the results analysed... Forensic lab tech2 '...and it's definately Mountain Dew, Cum Stains, Red Bull, and... Forensic lab tech1:...no shit, cheezy poof powder! Oh! Fingerprints?...Uhmmm... Forensic lab tech2:....it could be anywhere from one demented asshole, to three million high-turnover, disgruntled employees!?! Forensic lab tech1: 'Basically, we need more data to pin this down...' Forensic lab tech2: 'Ah, yeah...Hmmm?...which server had that pr0n directory on it? Forensic lab tech1: 'Sounds like a plan...you grab the Mountain Dew, and I'll grab the cheezy poofs!
As the only male in my family in 3 generatins that has hair past 30, I'm just waiting for the TurtleWax Buff-it Years!
Early 20's get a vasectomy...grow Jack Elam Eyebrows (they need trimmed more than any other hair) Early 30's start braiding my nose hairs. Early 40's start trimming the hairs sprouting out of my ear canals! WTF? What did you say? Early 50's....Damn, I'm only 49...I'm afraid of my 50's!!!!Shit!..Nevermind, it got caught in my asshairs-guess I'll have to braid them too. Where's that mirror?
That's it in a nutshell. Very concise and to the point. However...as good as your advice is, I get the impression that he is needing more.
The rest of this is not a direct reply to your post, but in the hopes he actually reads this.
Okay Cliff, I can't give you specific books or classes to take to help you, mainly because what you are asking help for is difficult to define, much less give specific info to help you without actually being in your shoes.
Two things I learned in college that have helped me to no end. (I went to school to become a Veterinary Technician...kind of like a RN in human medicine- trying to remember the river rat in Ethiopia that is a common carrier of an internal parasite's particular scientific name!!?! How will that help me to try to remember that in Oklahoma?)
1. No matter how good you are in your field, ya' can't remeber it all, but if you know where to look for the reference/info/documentation, then that is good enough as long as you have a good grasp on what needs to be available on recall, and what can be looked up as needed.
How does this relate?
Get your PHB a reference library (simple FAQ on Corp. net, Linux for Dummies, etc.-use what fits) that's easy and quick for him/her to reference.
2.One of the most difficult subjects I had was Anesthesiology (put 'em under for surgery). Our finals were a blank sheet of paper with one problem: "I am a layman, explain everything you know about anesthesia to me so I understand it." Theory was that if you actually know the subject, you can explain to a layman on one page, if you didn't know the subject, then you would have to turn the page over, even some asking for more paper to explain.
On that note, practice on friends, tolerant family, cow-orkers, etc. and try to get constructive critics to give you specifics. If their eyes glaze over during your explaination, then you need to study/practice more.
I wish that I could give you the magic wand effect and point you to the perfect tutorial, but this is all I can give you.
Thanks in advance for your patience Beefysworld, wasn't trying to trash you- you were spot on.

Good one.
My own solution:

Using the TV as a 'babysitter' to keep em quit and outta yer hair
Leaving them unattended for long periods of time, left to their own devices, advice (or their peers), and curiousoty.
This is just a couple of them...there are many more.

Thanks for the reply.
Was the NoScript extension running?
Thanks for the info! :-)
:-(
I can't convince my wife to switch to *nix/BSD, she is used to WinXP and IE 7 from work, and doesn't want to change.
I might be able to sneak Firefox in on her with some creative registry hacks, and some install/configure obfustications. We'll see.
