Those torrents have very few seeders and leechers - even on meta-engines like isohunt there are only 12 seeders/leechers in total. Can hardly blame that for your lack of sales.

Why don't they just link directly to the original source?
So I use the "forgot your password" flow everytime. The genius thing about that is that it asks me stuff I'd already entered on the retailer's purchase form. There's no additional info required
For me it always asks additional information such as date of birth, that you wouldn't have entered at the retailer's form

While I agree Windows 7 is a leap forward from XP, I think Intel are going to struggle to get people to see Nehalem as the same category for upgrades. The Nehalem processors (and the associated required DDR3 RAM) are significantly more expensive than the Core2Duo processors, without providing any noticeable benefit for the vast majority of users. Unless you are a gamer or into heavy video/photo editing, the current Core2Duo generation is more than sufficient to outperform your needs.
Ironically Windows 7, by running better than Vista on lower system requirements, will actually hurt Nehalem sales, by breaking the "software bloat"-"hardware upgrade" cycle
Flashblock will not save you from this vulnerability. Flashblock only blocks flash objects in your internet browser (firefox/seamonkey.) This attack uses flash objects embedded in pdf documents which are handled by Adobe Reader.
Now, who decided it was a good idea to allow pdf documents to have flash embedded in them?
On a default install on Windows, Firefox also makes itself the default browser without asking. Very annoying, particularly as I use Seamonkey as my main browser.
These 'step by step instructions' consist merely of "Install wine" and then "install Microsoft Office from the CD"
Blatant blogspam, not worthy of a place on the \. front page
Of course, since you won't be sharing the files with anyone, it doesn't matter that they contain personal information, does it? Watermarking has always been a far better way of discouraging file-sharing than encumbering files with unwieldy and crippling DRM that restricts your ability to play the files when and where you choose.

I'm sure noone else cares, and I'm too late to get modded up, but the new hotmail interface won't load with Seamonkey either - on any OS.
Spoof the User Agent to Firefox on WinXP and it works fine.
I've contacted both the hotmail support team, and the Seamonkey devs, to no avail.
Oh, and for those who are saying they don't care, it's just bells and whistles etc - the new interface is much much better than the old one, it's not just about eye-candy, it really increases productivity and usability by looking and feeling more like a standalone email client.
No, the best solution is to not use a so-called "free email client" at all, and get a real email account with a real ISP. There is no such thing as a free lunch, you always end up paying for it in one way or another. The difference is that with a so-called "free" email account, you have no control over the way you pay, and you might -- no: will -- eventually end up being fucked over. Dude, that's so 90s. Nobody uses ISP email anymore - do you really want to change email addresses each time you change ISPs?
Their silly browser sniffing blocks out Seamonkey users, dumping us with "Live Mail Lite."
But if you spoof the UA to read Firefox, it works fine. I've tried raising this with the Hotmail team and the Seamonkey devs, to no avail.
Notice how they cloak the printer friendly version using some javascript wizardry.

That's the Xbox 360 version, dumbass. It doesn't come with the DRM we are talking about in this discussion
I'm an indie developer, and I see our games pirated all over the place

I for one, if I can't download it from a torrent site, then I won't buy it.
Hmm... so if you can download it from a torrent site, then you WILL buy it?

Really? MP3 and H264 aren't open standards?
No, they aren't. Hand in your geek card at the door.
Wow! What a simple way to view a txt file! Apple - It Just Works (TM)

Seamonkey came after Firefox, not the other way round. You're confusing it with Netscape.

Conflict of interest much?
