Shit man, I didn't write the app so I have no control over the fact that it doesn't run securely. Giving the user group access to the program folder for the scanner app is a way around it.
All is does it potentially unsecure that particular app.
I don't use systemworks or turbotax here. For your scanner, I'd try giving the Users group rights to the program directory and then have it update the children folders.
Also, make sure you're letting the company know that you don't like that their product was writen assuming an insecure machine. It's the developers fault, not MS.
Take palm for example. It's a real bitch to get set up to run as a user. The software for a blackberry, which does all the same things, and more, has no problem being installed by an admin and then running as a user.
Tons of software? Not sure on that one. Only app I know that can't be made to run as user is Quickbooks. The rest just usually need an ini file (that developers put into the system root) or need write access to the particular program directory.
My network has everyone run as User, even the developers. All the tools and programs run just fine with a tweak here or there.

Better watch out, a drum circle will be forming soon.;)
Killing people may anger god(s), but I'm not sure that morality is why it is illegal (the state has reserved the right of murder to itself for instance).
Murder deprives the person of their life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. It is also positive for any group to shun those who harm the group.
There may be some moral overlap, but it's not the reason.
Not to mention that any increase in hardware and bandwidth spending will be covered in the tuition costs for the students.
Hahahahahaha.... Oh, man, you're killing me. Haven't worked at public institution before have ya? Your tuition dollars amount to jack shit as far as the operating budget of the University.
Private school, maybe, but even there infrastructrure upgrades aren't part of the allocation pool until they become hopelessly out of date or affect academic services.
Well if you really had a good solar generation system, you could use that to make hydrogren fuel and then move that around the country.
Unfortunately, we're no where near that point. I live in the SW and have a roof section that gets all day, year round sun. I thought it was a perfect place to put up some solar cells, until I priced it out. The system would take longer than I plan to live there to simply break even.
Yes, but I doubt that Apache/IIS and Firefox/IE is a good analogy. Apache and IIS both (supposedly) are being configured by people who know what they're doing; and the majority of IIS problems are when the person didn't set it up correctly.
Firefox and IE are both predominantly run by people who have no clue what the hell they're doing. Firefox isn't bug free and once a large enough percentage of the market is there, the leeches will start writing to it.
Most of the new viruses and spyware apps don't have to rely on a flaw to exploit anyway. They go straight to the user. Hell, if you can get people to download a file, unzip it (with a password) and then run the contents, nothing is safe.
Now that firefox has some traction, it's on the radar of the asshats that target IE for their spyware and shit. If firefox is still spyware free in 12 months, it'll mean something. Otherwise, it'll probably have some massive pullback.
The iPod is not a competitor of Microsoft, but of the people that bought into wmv.
Did Microsoft even have a web search offering that was up against Google?
No amount of call monitoring will change the fact that the pay and stress of the position preclude the presence of anyone who knows what they hell they're doing.
So what? Serv-U is part of trojan packages, so if you review the list (that is actually part of the process) and don't know what it is, you should quarantine it. If you intentionally installed it, you know what it is and add to the ignore list.
Yea, it's a shame. He's on the Ballot in 48 states and is out polling Nader, but I asked around the office yesterday and no one had heard of him (Badnarik).
Where do you shop that they swipe your Drivers License? Never had to do that anywhere I've ever been. Time to try a different grocery store. If you're confusing the DL for a shopping club card, that card ain't linked to anything but bogus information. If you're nice the cute cashier will usually give you a card without even making you lie on a form.

They didn't hire anyone. The University built it out for them at their cost.
Accuweather does.
Why would anyone pay for accuweather's data if they can get the (probably) superior data from the NWS?
They're also based in the same state that has elected this blight on Congress.

Well, I just got done with a download from etree and it was in the FLAC format.
Awesome man! Much thanks!

No shit buddy! I don't think it's even supposed to be done with figurines. Maybe some new scam to get more money out of the basement dwellers.

Fuck consesnus. How about scientific evidence. We could actually have an intelligent debate on that. (probably not on /. but still...)
Throughout history lots of VERY wrong ideas have been held by this scientific consesus.

Except that you're chilling yourself. There is nothing illegal in what you're doing. Don't point it at planes or helecopters and you'll be fine.
Everyone needs to stop freaking themselves out.
They were selling stolen software on the X-Box. This makes it criminal rather than civil. Once you start selling stuff illegally, things change.
If you could show someone selling illegal copies of your software, you also could get law enforcement to step in.
Exactly, Apple releases a new version that fixes the things they half-assed in the prior version of X and they expect you to pay $129.
Games aren't free. If Jimmy the 10 year old has $54.99 to buy the latest kill spree, then the parents have already failed.
That's the biggest strike against Lotus. It makes Exchange look like a work of fucking art by comparison.

Nah, that whole commerce clause has been blown to hell. If you buy parts for your rocket from another state they'll decide they can regulate you.
