as most are not under attack from zero day malware and viri.
this is the second comment that claims that average users are not under attack from zero day threats... I cannot understand how you can back that up. Zero day threats would be my biggest concern.
The point of the phishing site is to obtain a users credentials, OTP included. OTP's provide another means for authenticating the user to the bank, not the Website to the User.
How is open source a better solution when your only source of troubleshooting is Google?
Google as a troubleshooting resource, is better than 95% of closed source support resources.
Once you learn how to use Google you will understand this.
So you are essentially trusting Steve Gibson and his website with you passwords, rather get a utility that generates random passwords locally.
I have a spare tin foil hat here if you like?
They could also block the dns requests upstream. Plus as far as I can remember a client would only try a limited amount of times before trying another root server. Oh and only DNS servers configured to do recursive queries would normally query a root server.
I wonder if this will also make Network Solutions think twice about registering a domain every time a whois search is done on their site so that you can not register that domain at any other registrar?
This is exactly what the Tippingpoint zero day initiative is for. To give credit and a bit money to researchers who spend time and effort to discover vulnerabilities in software.
Sure these researches should get money/credit, but what if they become greedy or irresponsible?
The OpenBSD bug is not as severe, but when they have a chance to make OpenBSD a little bit more secure, why not take it, especially when their focus is on security.
OpenBSD's argument is that a patch would not make it more secure... so your point is moot.

Don't know how you searched but I searched for "South Africa" and the comments that came up certainly are not grammatical fixes. Makes me proud to be a South African!
"On top of that, once I find what I'm looking for, I'm either going to bookmark it or forget about it. I'm not going to search on the same keyword/phrase every time I want to visit a website."
thats what I and I suspect many others do...unless? I need to get outside today..
These tests were done on RC version of the service pack. All Microsoft have to do now is change/add code that will make the performance suck again and release it in the final SP3 for XP.

This is hilarious, they are writing a patch for a patch that has not been released yet!!!!
Tell your wife to get a job and then you can go fishing.

because the cost of moving 35000+ employees out weighs the benefits of moving to Nevada.
Prior to 911 the masses were not too concerned about commercial jets flying into buildings. Think proactive security.
My 2Gig Kingston memory stick also went through the wash twice. Still using it now without problems.

New features that SP1 provide include:
