It's actually quite a bit easier to do than that. Just disable usbstor.sys with GPO. done.
Keyboards still work. Mice still work. Just mass storage devices.
And whoever said you can't prevent execute on windows systems is ignorant. You've been able to deny "Read & Execute" via NTFS permissions since NT 3. Note: Read is a seperate right. Since you have to be able to read it to exectute it, it's just included in the permission description. Semantics.
Here's something that may help you understand it. It's not that complicated. In reading the doc it will talk about share permissions and individual permissions, group permissions, and NTFS permissions all seperately, and what wins in what scenario, and will talk about scenarios that no administrator that is worth his salt would ever implement. When done correctly it's actually very simple. However it does have the flexibility to be as complex as one needs it to be.

So there.
Actually Gv can only be catalyzed by Au. Once Am is formed however, it can exchange particles with Reservium (Rv) at the quantum level. These virtual particles although observable, are technically not really there, but yet present at the same time. The value of these particles to Am is increasingly meaningless in the fourth dimension. Am and Rv have a symbiotic relationship which eventually is mutually destructive, once critical mess is achieved.
*So, Sony invented LiIon which druggies bust apart to make Ice, And Japan invented methamphetamines for their Kamikaze pilots, (well actually years before that, but it became useful in WW2). So, they basically single handedly invented tweakers.
THANKS JAPAN!! Now, I understand why all the white folks in anime have such huge eyes, and are talking a thousand miles an hour at unnatural decible levels.
*conspiracy theorists disregard this post.
Well, a drug company would definitely not fund research of this kind if it meant a drop in sales of their cancer treatment drugs, in favor of the cancer cure drug. Drug companies are not interested in curing people. If they were, we'd have a cure for Aids, Addiction, the common cold, etc.
Why would a company sell you a relatively non toxic drug that cures your cancer in three months, when they can put you on interferon for two 6 month rounds of treatment. Even though the two 6 months of treatment make you lose your hair, all your body fat, make you suceptible to other diseases, and make you nauseous the entire time, with a complete lack of energy?
That would be like an oil company selling you a car that runs on water for cheaper than ford sells the petrol cars..
Actually the term "kerf" is indirectly drawn from saw [i]blade[/i] manufactueres, wherin they termed the width of a blade the kerf. Mills originally called the material lost to blade width Kerf Loss which eventually just got shortened to Kerf. [br][br] The material generated of course, being saw dust. Now days, mountains of saw dust are turned into presto logs and fire starters, for as much of a return as the wood itself in some cases, sometimes more, depending on the wood, so kerf loss is a thing of the past(unless your a carpenter).[br][br] Anyway, I digress, technically the term is directly applicable to the chip industry since their blades have a kerf of their own. No borrowing necessary.
This is friggin hilarious, Half the people here think this is MS's first attempt at finding bugs and exploits in vista. The other half think it's a conspiracy theory to find and create a database of known hackers.
1. The NSA needs no help finding hackers... The really good ones.... WORK FOR THEM. And if they don't they probably will some day. At some point, due to the purely sickening salaries they get paid to work for them. The difference between black and white, is about high-5 figures in most cases. Sometimes 6.
2. MS has multiple security firms populated with heavies that have been testing this thing since alpha. If you think otherwise, you are ignorant. Software giants (all of them) pay extremely large amounts of cash for documented exploits, sometimes in paper bags. When they are not doing that, they are paying huge contract maintenance fees, and when they are not doing that, they are paying disgusting salaries. A lot of the time it's all at once. They pay the Salaried guys to find the bulk of the security flaws, then they pay a contract company to make them look like idiots, then they hire the real heavies to make the contractors look stupid. All of this to guys that shop at thinkgeek, and live off of caffeine, and coined terms like l337! and PwNT!. Only after all of this do they open it up to the general hacking community for a possible raping. MS is no exception. They are just being more public about it than others because they have been so heavily critisized in the past for being lax on security. They are in the spotlight, so they have to be.
They do that to prepare for the "take your best shot" invitation.

Moon's Bulge Explained
·
· Score: 3, Interesting
In ancient Arab and Sumerian religions, the moon was a Male god, and was considered the King of gods. You can see the crescent moon on much of the period coins etc. Harran was the literal city of the moon god and was named after him. Long before Muslims undertook Haaj to Mecca, it was a center for a religion of this type. The Kabah actually pre-existed Islam.
In Babylon there were two distinct versions of this polytheism one in which the moon god was a man, and the other in which it was a woman. The Male versions of the moon God when by many different names, Sin(pronounced seen), Allah, Haran, Aksum, Yerah... Probably many others. In Egypt, Greece, and later, Rome it was always a woman, because by that time, it had been determined to be a smaller body than the sun, although closer. Since it was smaller, it could obviously not be male...
Oh yeah, and saying that mythos regarding rebirth is related to the mentral cycle is like saying that my paying bills every thirty or so days is related the wife's cycle. That's simply rediculous, because if that was true, the fucking bills would come at a much better time of the month.
The moon is geologically dead. If there were volcanism on the moon it would have a carbon dioxide atmosphere, and it's surface would be much more interesting.. Like venus.
No, simply orbiting cannot cause oblateness, it has to spin on it's axis to create that effect. It's the lack of spin that confuses astronomers as to why the moon has the bulge at it's equator.There's not enough centrifugal force to cause the effect that we see.
Or.... buy another sound card and loop it to that instead.. You just have to set the recording device and playback devices to the appropriate sound cards.
Hey at least they get paid to troll. Unlike your last post.
Seriously, what was the point of your last post? You really think Microsoft PAYS people to post on what some schmuck in europe says as he elucidates on the differences between commercial and open source products? If they did pay someone to post something on slashdot, it would be a lot more product specific. que bono? NOBODY, this is a talking point, nothing more.
I'm not a Bill Gates fan, but this kind of shit is stupid. I can't stand the zealous views of some of you guys. Open Source/Linux is a religion to some of you guys. It's as if there is NO possible benefit to a commercial model. That Linux is the most secure OS out there. Well perhaps it is. But when I check my firewall logs, and investigate who's trying to root my mail servers, its always REDHAT boxes running some kind of bot. Bottom line is, no matter how fundamentally secure an OS is, there is no patch for a dumbshit admin. And with M$'s user base, their bound to have a few dumbshits in the crowd. And for some reason, still, I rarely see an Exchange open relay anymore.
Same with browsers. It really doen't matter how fucking secure a browser is. The moron on the other side of the keyboard can't be patched. If people spend all day downloading smileys and screensavers, looking for warez, and clicking on those popopups for free viagra, they will get hosed. Why? Because they want that free viagra, and no damn info bar is gonna stop them dammit. No damn, security dialogue with yes/no buttons stopped em, and they'll be damned if this yellow bar is. As long as security features can be disabled, morons with bad browsing habits will disable them. Open source or not. And they'll blame the browser, or the internet.
Give me IE 3, and I'll use it for my primary browser for 6 months without getting a trojan or spyware, guaranteed, it would look like crap, but it would work. Hell I'll even run it on a naked machine with NO security patches or AV software. I won't advertise it of course. but it can be done. The point is, the best security tool in the world is behind your eyes. Open source has it place, and so does commercial software. No zealotry is necessary, in fact, it's counter productive.
Come over here bobo, and give me some of that sweet monkey lovin'! Afterward, we can fling poo at eachother, and eat ants all night in the moonlight. Ahh yes, romance is in the air, my sweet.
This is rediculous. Thin film batteries are just around the corner, with a solid state electrolyte, they retain no memory, charge extremely fast, are cheap, high capacity, cannot break and leak chemicals, gas, or boil, and are paper thin to boot.
A fuel-cell powered cell phone would be the perfect example of "because we can" technology. Completely pointless, with little or no practicality, doesn't really advance anything, but it's cool as hell.
Hate to "burst your bubble," but methane only comprises about 7 percent of human flatus. 21 percent is hydrogen, so you'd do better to power a normal hydrogen fuel cell with it. The big daddy gas in flatus is nitrogen, because we swallow so much air, and is mostly responsible for the "pull my finger" variety of farts. Cows produce much more methane than people do because of their more efficient digestive system, most of the nitrogen and oxygen gets absorbed, leaving mostly methane and hydrogen.
I agree. However it has to be distributed via P2P networks or some other such arrangement. It could even be distributed by the app itself, asking upon install if the user is willing to be a distro point. Also if it is willing to be house a portion of the db. Kind of like the "supernode" concept. Completely distributed. Either that, or force those options, so that no single client can attract more attention from the spammers than any other.
However, I don't think it should simply send "opt out" emails, but other attacks on the spammers as well, activating with the screen saver of said computers. No more Mr. Nice antispam. The problem with spamnuker@home would be that on large networks it could interfere with the network connection of people who were not part of the project. This would be strictly for people on home networks, and admins would need policies in place that forbade the use of it, but that would be as simple as the seti@home stuff to prevent.
The problem would be getting the word out without having standard marketing abilities, like a web site to download from, etc. There are simply too many low skilled computer users that could never benefit from it because they have no idea how to safely use a p2p system. It would be a slow growth. But once the network was large enough, it would be crushing force to spammers.
