  1. Re:DRM and copy protection schemes on Thwarting New JavaScript Malware Obfuscation · · Score: 1

    SpiderMonkey is the Mozilla's C's JavaScript engine - they got one in Java, called Rhino and one in JavaScript that I don't remember its naming.

    SpiderMonkey is used on the Firefox browser, so a millions of people got it handy.

    It's fairly easy to make a graphical interface to allow any end user to copy or save the data to a file.

    Everywhere you have to update your techniques when new malwares appear.
    The better your heuristic, the less you have to update.

  2. Re:Is this OS independent? on Password Vulnerability In Firefox 2.0.0.5 · · Score: 1

    No if you've more than one login for that site, so it won't auto-complete.

    Test it... save two logins and try the exploit.

  3. Re:Firefox no longer safe? on Holes Remain Open in Firefox Password Manager · · Score: 1

    The exploit doesn't work if you've more than one password for that site.

  4. Re:humanity vs capitalism on Brazil Voids Merck Patent On AIDS Drug · · Score: 1

    I wouldn't mind a country putting us on the list of international pirates if we're helping to save lifes.

    The price of that drug was so high that would broke the anti-aids campaign here, so it was really needed to lower the cost.

    The people here tried hard for a year and got no results, so arriving to this decision.

    And by the way, only one YouTube video was blocked for a *** judge, only two ISP applied that decision (so I live in Brazil and I haven't got blocked) and for only one day before revoking that stupid and arbitrary decision.

  5. Re:56k Modems? on Skype Founders Develop Media Streaming Tech · · Score: 1

    Well... I could tell you if it'd run on Linux.

    But they say you need at least 1Gb to run it.

    Guy, it's a TV, you wouldn't use it if you had only 56k.
    No way.

  6. Re:I wonder on Sun Is Giving Away Solaris 10 DVDs · · Score: 1

    Any fold should use https and check the certificate validity before sending sensitive data over the web:
    https://www2.sun.de/dc/forms/reg_us_2211_391.jsp

    if you're running Firefox you will quickly see it's not a pishing.

  7. Re:Mantel doesn't address issues on MS/Novell on Hubert Mantel Returns to Novell · · Score: 0

    I am a Linux heavy user.
    I contribute a lot for OpenSource projects (well... I'm not a great guy but I do the best as I can).

    I hate M$ and so on...

    But I think this deal has more good than bad points.

    In my humble opinion, GPL3 is worse than this deal. The troubles they're going to have because of it are GPL3 troubles.

    I think Novell/M$ are going to help the users of both products. We should look out there and see the most people won't use Linux.
    Maybe because they don't know, or they are dumb (or even worse).

    We could kill Novell but use the good part of this deal for the rest of us.

    No, I don't use M$, neither I use SuSE in the day by day.

  8. Re:Never believe anything without a second source on Firefox Zero-Day Code Execution Hoax? · · Score: 1

    Well...

    I don't think it's a hoax, it has another meaning to me.

    It's clearly just a FUD.

  9. What a great guy! on Analyzing 20,000 MySpace Passwords · · Score: 1

    He have "found" 20,000 passwords and wanted to help the people to choose better ones?

    I envy him.
    I wanted to be a guy like him.

    He's my idol.

  10. Re:What's virtualisation for? on VMware, XenSource Join Forces For Linux · · Score: 1

    Virtualization is for "running windows on linux", "running linux on windows", "running macosx os freebsd" and so on.

    You may use another operating system without having to reboot the computer, without having to leave your desktop
    and with a performance that makes it to be as near as possible the performance of the system outside guest OS.

    The joint is for making hardware virtualization working better on Linux and for VMWare and Xen solutions to interoperate.

  11. Re:Is it compatible with extensions and plugins? on SeaMonkey 1.0 Released · · Score: 1

    Users said it works: Mnenhy and MIDF, also Tagzilla, infoRSS, DeleteDuplicates, Enigmail (except the GTK2-Linux-Compiler-Issue), JSLIB, Flashblock 1.3.3 http://flashblock.mozdev.org/installation2.html>, LCARStrek, adblock, RadialContext, extuninstall. extuninstallapi, gdirections-0.9.9-fx+mz+tb, ie_view-1.2.7-fx+mz, jslib_lite-0.1.234-fx+mz+tb, tabx, timestatus, undoclosetab-20040617-fx+mz...

    Most extensions works, but some don't. It's better to uninstall them and go installing one by one latter ;).
