I'm aware of the real reason they don't want to comply... it creates more work for them. But, if it has the side of effect of benefiting me, great. They blocked port 80 because it was easier than tracking down vulnerable/infected web servers, and that upset me. I'm just taking the good with the bad.
The Wi-Fi at payphones has potential, plus they just lowered the Verizon DSL price while increasing the download speed, AND they're standing up for their customers privacy rights. Now, if they'd just unblock port 80...
Anyone see this new Microsoft robot crawling their websites? It's apparently legitimate, or at least acknowledged by Microsoft. Competition for Google?
After I played Tetris for a while, I just couldn't stop thinking about the block shapes and the combinations I could use to create complete lines. I haven't played in a while, but I can still clearly picture a game in my head.
Depending on your needs, they have standard virtual hosting packages, as well as bigger "bulk hosting" packages (host/resell a bunch of different sites on your own). They also have virtual servers and full server offerings. Support is great and always very fast, and I find the prices very reasonable. There is also a fairly active user community forum for trading tips and such.
I need PHP, MySQL, the ability to configure my server somewhat (htpasswd, htaccess), raw log files, SSH, FTP, crontab, decent bandwidth (~10 GB), POP accounts, around 300 MB disk space (I host the bulk of my images/videos elsewhere)... and I wouldn't mind paying what I pay for DSL every month (~$50)
They have PHP, MySQL,.htaccess and.htpasswd support, access to raw log files (as well as the control panel generated stats), ssh access (if you ask for it), ftp cron, and bandwidth and diskspace based on the package you get.
I've been there over a year now and am very happy.
Grub isn't a heavy cpu users. Right now, on my Athlon (~2400+), it's using between 0-2% of the CPU at any given time. Grub is mainly interested in your excess bandwidth.
Well, if you're getting into "What if"'s, she could could also email someone outside the company anything from inside the firewall. Or setup a file sharing client like Kazaa and share things on local and network drives.
If you wanted to forbid the client from working, network admins could block port 3136 (I think it is), which would prohibit communication with the central server.
My understanding is that grub does not just crawl away randomly, rather it's given a list of things to crawl by the central server. So, assuming it hasn't crawled your intranet before, and you don't give it a local site to crawl, it shouldn't normally find them. But, like I said, they're open to suggestions, so if you have some, offer them.
If it becomes a problem, I imagine ISPs will declare it a commercial bandwidth usage, and order users to stop or move to a business class plan for more money.
You can always put an entry in your robots.txt to block it.
Actually, the robots.txt issue is one they're still working on. Right now it doesn't check the file very often, which upsets some webmasters.
They're open to suggestions, so maybe you could suggest a list of blacklisted IP's/hostnames. I suggested they look into supporting gzip compressed web pages, and they said they'd look into it.
PayPal is also X.com. Once upon a time, X.com was a person-to-person payment service like PayPal, but they merged back in 2000. Yeah, it does seem a little suspicious at first, but it seems it is legit (as legit as PayPal is anyway).
Not really. I'm American and I learned it as "surprise." Google seems to indicate most people use ise (7,470,000) rather than ize (46,600). A true "Americanized" word like realize shows 8,270,000 vs realise at 1,530,000.

Amazing how much difference a year and a different battlefield can make. Now there are actual embedded reporters on (or near) the front lines.
While I'm with you on the tab menu (it took me many many uses to re-memorize it), I like the new tab opening my home page (Google.com). I always wished it would do that before, and it started doing it, and I was happy. But I don't see any reason this option couldn't be in the "tabbed browsing" prefs.
It lets me glace at things pretty quickly to get an idea of what may be wrong, and saves me the step of loading it into a full blown editor. Plus, I can select only part of a document and just view that particular source.
I also like the http header viewer add-on mentioned in the article. I used to have to visit a website and use that to view headers.
They weren't. They were real CD's. They brought a big box of them, but not too many were my taste. I ended up with one by Erykah Badu, so I gave that to a friend.
All it takes is a big enough bounty for one student to cave and access it/report it for violations. They'll have a local IP address, access as a student, and be difficult extremely difficult to predict ahead of time. Plus, being college students, the bounty probably wouldn't need to be too big... maybe a pizza.
Actually, the RIAA bought me pizza once. They came to a class I had in 1997-98 (Legal Issues in Computing) to discuss music piracy with some college students. At the time, I wasn't very familiar with the concept, but, uh, shortly after, I became very well acquainted. They even gave us some free CDs!
Before you do this, I suggest you move all of the actual spam to a spam folder if you haven't already. This will make this process easier.
Completely exit Mozilla. Go to your profile directory, and look for a file called training.dat. Delete it (or rename it to something else). Start Mozilla Mail again. Re-flag all of the real spam as spam (select all the spam messages, and hit the junk button). Then, go through and find some good messages (not all of them), and flag them as not spam. The less aggressive you want it to be, the more of your legit messages you should mark as not spam. You can test it by using the "Run Junk Mail Controls of Folder" on good message and seeing how many false positives are marked. Flag these as not spam.
This process has worked pretty well for rebuilding an effective spam filter for me. If you mess up, it's not hard to do again.

Yes, that seems to be the primary reason, but Mozillazine mentions "a few security fixes" too.
Mozilla 1.3.1 (bugfix update for 1.3) was released this week, too.

I wonder what broadband ISPs think of Grub.

I setup a mirror, too... In my bathroom. It's one of the new flat screen models.
Just look at The President's Analyst from 1967.
