...who to go after? Yes they can snaffle your IP and contact your ISP, but thats surely where the stinky stuff hits the fan, surely anyself respecting ISP would tell them to reproduce with themselves and read the data protection, because I'm pretty its illegal to hand over the details of the user, especially as they are suing straight off and not even trying to press criminal charges, where there might be some merit to ignoring the DPA.
No, but TV on the net is terrible because we don't all have UBER connections in the UK, atleast when it comes to streaming. (However BT IS excellent for That 70's Show)
It costs about £25 ($43) for 512 down 256 up per month and Tv license is about £55 ($96) a year.
As for other things such as TV cards you still need a license, though its much easier to get away without a license with a TV card rather than telly.

According to that article he's ordered to pay 1million dollars ti the mpaa, so i doubt he's come out better off like some have been suggesting.
On a side note you'll notice that ATM my site is on a M$ machine, however its running apache, as a vague sort of redemption, as my linux box HDD gave up, not surprising really being an old PII with a 2 gig HDD
Well, no one really, its the person using the exploits, they can use that as an excuse, yes they can, no I don't care what you say Mr M$, its not like you use that argument of flaws in IE and Windows all the time is it?
And no single sign on system? What like? M$ passport? You're asking everyone to trust in that, and everyone is saying no, maybe its something people don't want, you know, a monopoly.
Its just another publicity stunt giving facts and figures from unreal situations. Seen this? And more precisely this? . Maybe this is true, if you're server is working on an intranet that has no communications with anything from outside, be it CD's, flash sticks etc. Otherwise it'll get infected, and damned fast too.
What I know about servers is little, and linux even less, but i tried M$ server 2003 as I thought it would be easier for me to set up, well yes true, keeping it up however was pointless, a linux box however is much nicer, I don't know anything in linux (I struggle to remember how to change the root password at times) but KDE suffices for a simple webserver and doesn't nearly explode every 5 mins as it auto updates its self with virii or crashes due to dodgy CGI support or similar.
So as ever, rather than M$ delivering, they merely having to make it look like they can, or make it look like others can't.
Will the game be released on a different OS (Macintosh, Linux, etc.), or on other video game consoles?
Guild Wars is being developed on and will initially be released for the PC. We are aware that there is an interest in having the game available on other operating systems or other platforms, and we will continue to evaluate these possibilities as we get closer to release.
If Guild Wars rewards playing skill, I'll play it. Somehow, though, I think my character's damage, or chance to dodge an arrow or a sword, is going to be based on invisible dice rolling and not my actions
You might want to play it first, yes there is invis dice rolling, yes it depends how high oyu're skills are, point is though you're capped on skills, as soon as you hit level 20, bang, no more point to improve you're skills in, ex now only earns you points with which you can buy skill/actions (Of which you can only use 8 at any given point) and pointless that let you rearrange any attributes you currently have.
As for clicking on someone and attacking you can do that, however people who are actively using there skills will own you all the time, they'll be tripping you, hexing you, cripling you. You'll be lamely tring to hurt them in the most basic way. You'll need to use all you're skills, and how you use them depends enitrely on ou're role, you may be a warrior, so trying to d more damage, necromancer, raising minions and stealing health, monk, healing, smiting undead for lots of damage, protection spells, elementalist, magic damage like tradition wizard, mesmor, hexing, enchanting, and breaking them to, ranger, well bows, training an animal to use it battle, setting traps.
And thats not even mention team composition and the fact you have a primary and secondary class....
"this average person often has no idea how to fix the computer when it breaks, and no idea even how to perform the most basic maintenance on it to prevent such breakage. It's also vulnerable to hackers, phishing schemes, and hosts of other plagues.
With a car, for instance, this exposure to complexity is a necessary state of affairs. With inevitably increasing bandwidth, this is definitely not a necessary state of affairs for computers, and the time of the personal computer as we know it will soon be at an end, I think.
Most users have no desire to be the system administrators of their machines, and would gladly turn that task over to someone else for a nominal fee."
No they wouldn't hand it over to someone to do it for a fee when they know the likes of me will do it expecting nothing in return, even though I know its often good for £10 or a small bottle of whiskey.
Nerds us are the reason this won't work. Hell I've even started installing tight VNC on every computer I build for people know so I don't een have to bother to go around to them to fix (And for 2 people clean out there comp twice a week over vnc).
Might seem i have alot of time on my hands but all that whiskey and money is great for college students.

Oh Crap! I can't, damn those Militants! Damn them and there clear speech! Damn them!
Also more secure because it gets more fixes (Not because it needs more because it was badly made to start with.) /p?
...this is a dupe, or atleast really old mirror, I read this in the newspaper a few months ago.

Then again thats what happens when you feel you need to make a browser that complies with most websites and not standards.
Gates had this to say "The error was not ours, Ra Ra Ra".
He then went on to add "Microsoft would never make such a move, its underhanded, dirty, and is counter-productive creating a monopolistic market."Bill had to leave soon after when someone mentioned Wine and M$ update.

When Are they going to blame them?
When will they bother to fix this?Place bets NOW
is itA: Hackers, right away
B: Hackers, from the Open Source community, when they make something better than them (Eg Someone failing asleep on there keyboard)C: Themselves (Odds at 1 to 10^67^687^3945^Pi for this)

Well if you bothered to look at the FAQ you'd see

>I quote the poster (emphasis mine): Hell I've even started installing tight VNC on every computer
Which part of "TightVNC" don't you understand?Ah good, looked like people were suffering from mass stupidity because I put a space in TightVNC where there shouldn't be.

Anyone for "I survived 1/1/2005" underwear?
...when did spyware take control of you're computer? Yes some malware makes pop ups but so do websites (Well for IE anyway).
Maybe this might be usefull when it covers software that has a detrimental effect on the system without the owner/operators request.
