  1. Re:Other Serverless clients - Open Source? on Trillian 3.0 Released · · Score: 1

    I can't think of any off-hand but if you are simply looking to getting around the firewall, consider Your Freedom its a java (eww) based tunneler that gets you around firewalls without any trouble.

  2. Re:Security Diversion on Google Desktop Search Under Fire · · Score: 1

    Honestly, it'd be almost simpler to download a copy of Cain (a popular cracker/password stealer) and steal passwords and so on than it would be to use Google's Desktop Search. Perhaps its just that people are afraid google will become too powerful, first web sites, then toolbars, then email, then to your desktop. Its obviously scaring people. Also the way that it integrates the Desktop Search into google.com is somewhat ominous (even though it redirects to a locally served page) Google would be smart to re-release it with tighter controls on what users can search what. Otherwise its far more efficient than Window's search application, both in speed and results. gg google.
