  1. Re:Nice...but not necessary on Using Email Networks as P2P Spam Filters · · Score: 1

    Does the junk filter in Thunderbird also work on imap accounts? Or is it for pop3 only?

    The first thing I enter in the filter list for Adblock is this adblock filterset.

    Ah. Your memory must be good then. I find that even when I can find things easily in Windows XP, if I describe how I find them to others who aren't as computer savvy, they are confused at what to click to get there, even when it seems like it should be easy to get there to me.

    How do you help people in Windows if you don't use it yourself or have a box running Windows nearby to help you in giving the user on the phone "click-by-click" instructions? "Tell me exactly where to click" is fun when you only use Linux and the user asking is using Windows.

    By downloading the show.

    Were they 7200 RPM drives or 5400 RPM Maxtor drives?

  7. Re:Why no CHROOT? on New Mozilla Firefox 1.0.3 Exploit · · Score: 1

    How do you chroot something that you only launch non-root? I thought chroot required someone to run something as root to do it.

    Couldn't x86_64 (amd64?) run a 32 bit version of firefox and then use the 32 bit flash plugin in linux?

  9. Re:BSOD on Longhorn: Fewer BSODs, More RSODs · · Score: 2, Interesting

    What if you've seen blue screens in Windows on a machine that previously was able to run Linux for weeks or even months at a time without ever locking up? If the hardware were really the culprit, wouldn't linux also be affected and crash just like Windows does?

  10. Re:I see BSOD's a lot. on Longhorn: Fewer BSODs, More RSODs · · Score: 1

    I am curious... Did that same computer also freeze or cause kernel panics when Linux was run on it?

  11. Re:Reduced Complexity... Huh? on Symantec Launches Anti-Spyware Beta · · Score: 1

    Are Linux and Mac OS X not major targets for spyware simply because they aren't as popular or as widely in use as Windows?
