Excellent point. I know http://www.kvirc.net/ has their source freely available, but the is no mention if it's GPL or whatever. I get QT free for linux and Mac (GPL) but Windoze has a 1500 dollar price tag on it? This makes me wonder if I should work more with GTK. I can now see why GNOME and KDE are going different directions.
Excellent choice ! But I would go with slax.(smaller in size)and now that usb drives are getting big, 1 gig plus. You can carry all you would need. Better yet 1 of those tiny usb hard drives. Pricey but full of space for a full system.
Since the can spam act of 2003 http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/conline/pubs/buspubs/canspa m.htm/ It bans false or misleading header information. Your email's "From," "To," and routing information ? including the originating domain name and email address ? must be accurate and identify the person who initiated the email.
I know that not all spammers follow the rules, but you would be surprized at how many do. Many of the emails I get will bounce back to me when I bounce them. So far I have had none bounce back to me. The best part is my spam count is way down. What I believe is that this guy who did the server shutdown found out that if the spammers find a dead end they just take you off the list. They have too because it's pounding them with their own crap. As for the spammers that don't follow the rules. Then all the email that would of gone to his server ended up bouncing to all the net.
I find it was very good also. I look for any windoze open source I can find and burn copies. This was done very well for a windows user to look at, view and install.
First of all, hence the name "codeconfused". This alone should say it all:)) Second great line "blast away like drunks with diarrhea" You must be under the influence that I'm running the mail server. The account I bounce is a yahoo email and all the email I bounce comes from so called legit places. example:staples.com etc.... I never bounce some poor yahoo/aol/hotmail memember. I have had that happen to me at my yahoo addy. If I can't be sure that the email gets back to the real source....then It just gets dumped. Bouncing emails from sites I visit once and then get flooded with specials they're having, I say bounce um and let them think the email addy is dead. Now if sites get bounced, they will give up because it will just clog there system. So bouncing works in the right situations. BTW I keep a yahoo email just for places like AIM who will also sell the email address. And yes I know they eat babies.....I have prove of it !!!!
Adds to the problem? If spam gets bounced then spammers will slowly get the word out and you're off their list. Yeah some people will get bombed, like I have when people bounce it and I'm the lucky one to get it. But it's worth the hassle every once and a great while. Better than getting it from spammers all the time Right ?
I've been doing this with kmail. My spam has decreased. It has the bounce option in it. Another plus on it is it doesn't load html files unless I read the code first. Helpful for all those phishing scams. I use kmail as my main email reader.
How is bouncing email back to spammers ( done with Kmail ) any worse then what Lycos was doing? I don't see it as fighting fire with fire, It's more like dumping the garbage they dumped on my lawn and putting back on their lawn.
Hack in and place your resume....you'll get hired or goto jail. But the good news if you goto jail someone will hire you.

No...then bounce the hell out of them.....then they bounce the hell outta me....who wins????? nobody knows

Here's a link to some http://osswin.sourceforge.net/#cdwriting/ I haven't tried any so I can't tell you how they work.

They have the lastest blender 2.3.5 on there. That's up to date. So's gimp and others
Thanks for the link :D I make and burn out plenty of cd's for my poor windoze users. Trying to get them as hooked on open source as I am *laffs*

I go to nut houses's and see how the sane people live. Then I come home and make jewelry...true story !! Really
Mac OS X Hints was a real help when getting Midnight Commander ported over. Now I'm working on KVirc. KVirc is a bit trickier to port.
