I don't see how this can be called a virus. The last time I remember a virus uses some type of exploit either with a system process or 3rd party application which is granted administration privilages without the user knowning.
If this so called virus comes up asking with a password to me it's nothing more than a simple little script made by an amature.
You can do this with Applescript as well.
Last time I checked a trojan does not replicate itself. A virus does but this is by far not a virus more like a pitiful excuse for one at least.
Well at least we know Windows is not going to pass this test so if they begin banning unsecure operating systems they got my vote at least on this one.
"in the way the currently available version of the ICH7-M Southbridge communicates with Microsoft's ACPI driver,"
"The specific piece which Intel and Microsoft now say is responsible for the power drain is Windows' Advanced Configuration and Power Management Interface (ACPI) driver, which is a software component provided through the operating system."
Seems like a driver issue to me so before you go on insulting people maybe try reading the entire article. Does not seem to be the southbridge at fault but how the ACPI microsoft driver talks to it.
But this is a undergoing investigation so I will refrain from any such comments like yours.
No offense while I am not a intel supporter or a mac zealot I find it quite funny that every time there is a problem with Intel everyone begins to bash them simply because of a list of problems. No problem simply do a recall. It's quite obvious to me that the Yonah chips where rushed because of Apple. Plus it states XP driver. Nothing related to Apple because they don't use "XP drivers". Or maybe these flaws are intentional so that Windows runs poorly on them. But I seriously doubt they would sacrifice there marketshare just for that. Also AMD has it's own flaws as well, instead of keeping your eye on one thing why not both? From what I read in another/. comment which gave a link to the AMD Duron with a list of 124 flaws. But correct me if I am wrong.
Nothing is ever perfect and for you AMD lovers your chip is not perfect either. So live with it.
I am pretty sure when you bought a piece of software you just never had to upgrade it right?
Well we do put chemicals into our soil either if it's to kill weed or some to grow grass my only guess is that after years of exposure to such chemicals is what makes them very resistant to antibiotics wether it be in a direct or indirect way.
I just don't like seeing the FCC earn a profit from selling such a spectrum. I do agree that there should be regulations on the spectrum but who ever gave them the right to "claim" that spectrum as there own property?
So your saying I need to stick something in my ear just so I can enjoy a flight I have already paid for...hmm interesting. Why not stick it up your ass let's see if that reduces cabin noise without having to be a prissy little bitch because you want to use your damn cellphone on a plane and bugging the shit out of everyone. If people do not respect others there would be problems and in your case your will be the first one to fly out simply because you think your something special.
I do not understand why I have to pay about 599 round trip ticket from Atlanta to Sacremento while having some guy or woman talking on there phone during the entire flight. It seems rather childish that you someone like you should ruin the ride for others because you feel the need to talk. Why not just use a laptop with a internet connection to send email instead? You know it's good every once and a while to let go of the phone even if you are conducting business it's nice to not have that phone ring till you reach your destination and gives you some time to relax or catch up on some work on your laptop. People should show some respect to those around them before even thinking to start talking out loud over the phone.
While where at it auctioning shit that's not even our's for a high price. I will like to auction the radio waves coming from my microwave starting bid is $6,000. Anyone interested please contact me at/dev/null.
Please check out my other items such as radiowaves from my cellphone for sale and my remote control toy hovercraft operating in the elite mhz of 25!
I am verified and please remember to bid with confidence. kthxbye.
I know this is an off topic question but I remember hearing that the macbook pro uses some type of NAND flash to boot up instead of using the HD. Now if what people say that NAND flash dies after certain read/writes then that would mean a limited amount of restarts as well. Correct me if I am wrong though.
Pfft I never understood why you guys go and buy a antenna when a paperclip with a copper wire surrounding it does just as fine. Let's not forget it's portable/light weight and universal.
Basically as long as I can see clearly what I have on my TV it's fine with me. Anyway I kind of like the way the government is spending it's money you know. Trying to get everyone using broadband now giving us vouchers for tv's. Because cartoons and football are just soooo much important than a education these days...
FEMA has me fucked over for a good 3 months after Wilma.
Louisiana destroyed because giving tv vouchers was just more important than giving the city better levee's or donate some of that money to the red cross.
You used our tax dollars for "your" war.
I wonder what's next really.
So let me guess we are going to have a 50ft thick cable floating from earth where these solar panels are located in space, god might trip over it emagine the consequences for that.
How do they or anyone of us know it's going to be expected on that date? Nobody can predict an outbreak because there is never a set time for one. If the virus author can change the date he would. Like they say always expect the unexpected and what was expected is deemed to be better or worse than it was intended to be.
Ever heard of private registration? Some companies provide it and instead of showing your information they show the information of the company which who you bought the domain from and if they need to contact you it's through a simple interface on there site.
Not only is this completely unnecessary but let me get one thing straight. We do not have the right to abuse our power as citizens but the government has the power to go beyond it's boundaries and watch our every move? What is this bull. There is no point in monitoring someone's progress in car. In order to solve a problem you need to find the root cause of it. If you want us traveling at a slow 50-mph then there should be no cars in the united states which can go beyond that limit. So why do we still see GTO's, Porsche and other cars which are never designed to go just at 50MPH. Your wasting money on this crap. Also GPS cannot work where it does not get a signal. So in some states this would simply be useless. For then you come up with another thing out of your @@@ which is less reliable than the other. Good Job. Keep screwing us over.
I bet they actually mean't it would be harder for you to press the brake pedal so you can just fall off the bridge and die. Then they make a great example of you. God Bless America.

Where the hell is "stability"? With all the new toys they added to Vista I sure as hell hope it's at least stable when it comes out.
Agreed. Also kick his little @ss down the stairs to get his own milk.
But then they make a story on fox news of "my parents are abusive because they don't let me play xbox".

Don't worry I will be there to catch that laptop, because you shall never see it again.

It's just a matter of respect, this is not a issue of rights but a issue on being corteous about those around you.

There is already a game that kills people. It's called "The World"

Could this be why coca cola in other countries tastes fresher/better than in the U.S?

There messing with us. It's Microsoft's job to give us shit. They been doing it for years now.
