The school may ignore you but you forgot one thing, go up a level. Maybe the school board will listen. If they won't keep going up. The thing is you have to work with the system. If you try going against it you are going to get slammed for it.
As for businesses, what about all the exploits they don't fix or check for because their software is "good enough"?
Approach the business saying you provide a service. If they say thanks but no thanks move along and take salacious glee in the fact that they may get comeuppance one day.
I have noticed majority of the time in Windows, the software that says it needs to reboot usually doesn't need to to be installed. Uninstalls are a little more often especially with services due to file locking and the file can't be removed.
Windows has the option to restart the machine if it BSODs and it also has the option of putting the BSOD information into a file first before rebooting as well as send an administrative message. However it appears that it doesn't have anything to shut down the machine completely

Yep their non contributors but they can use seniority as an excuse to axe their employees first.

Unless your job directly brings in money from a client you are considered a non contributor.
I have the R3000 which isn't exactly a small laptop as well. I am not a huge guy but I am not small either. For me though was the resolution. I wanted higher than 1024x768 which is your typical laptop resolution but the only thing like that was the A21 which was a bit out of my price range. This was a bit large for my taste but it was easy to get used to. I would rather it be a little cooler than smaller as the exhaust on it can get quite... warm in certain spots.
Problem is that I and my wife don't want the Tories in power with their homophobic stance. But it is time for the Liberals to take a timeout. They have been in power for too long. We would rather vote for the Green Party. But that would be a wasted vote you say? So is voting for the Tories.
You are right, it is based off of the SID not off a password. The SID isn't a password but the numerical representative of the account. If the accounts are workstation based then the SID will be different from one workstation to another. However if you are using a Domain account the User SID will be the same when you logon to different workstations.
The key to the issue is the trusted authority. Since the original workstation was the trusted Authority that created the cert in the first place, you should be able to import the exported backup private certs on the same workstation, however since you tried to import on another workstation, since the second workstation does not trust the original it fails. The solution in this case is to set up a Certificate Authority that all trusted certificates will be issued from that the workstations will trust.
The scary thing is that the EFS cert is put into the CAPI store with no security other than the user's credentials. This means that anyone who can logon with the user's account would be able to access any encrypted files. This is due to MS trying to keep EFS transparent to the user which i s a leftover from their Pre Security Initiative days. I wouldn't be surprised if somewhere down the road a user will need either a PIN, biometric device, smartcard or a token to access the encrypted data as well as logging on with their user account
Chances are his computer was not part of a domain as the Domain admins should be able to decrypt the files. Plus if it was set up properly, the local admin would be able to as well.
You don't need to be part of a domain, you can set up EFS with a workstation in a workgroup.
It also isn't associated with your password, it's associated with your account. This means that the EFS cert is stored in the user's CAPI store with no security checks other than the user's logon password. This means anyone who logs on with the user's account by whatever means will be able to access their files.
EFS in a domain is better as the Domain Administrators group has the ability to decrypt any EFS data encrypted by any user in the domain so if the user account gets blown away it can be recovered later.
I just wish that I could get the crappy audio sync issue with the ATI TV Wonder working with my SB Audigy 2. I was using the onboard NForce sound because of this until it started futzing and the sound dropped off a huge amount, also some games, i.e The Sims2 were starting to sound bad and distorted even with levels dropped. At that point I went back to my SB and the audio is out of sync by at least half a second.
I figured out why NewFoundland is half hour ahead. I did some work for about 10 days in St John's. If you ask for something to get done by 10 it usually is done at 10:30.
This isn't an insult at Newfies but a humorous look at the easygoing attitude of them. I have been to NewFoundland and Labrador several times and always loved it and looked forward every time I was there
Bear with me. Ignoring where the person lives, lets say Joe Public goes out and buys an ipod and has to pay a levy of x amount of dollars. Now this levy was more or less agreed upon by the RIAA to cover the cost that piracy is having upon their poor antiquated method of distrbuting the latest fluff they call music. Now Joe Public decides to share his wealth of music on a p2p app and gets caught by the RIAA and the threaten to sue him for (pinkie to mouth) a bajillion dollars.
Now since he paid the levy up front shouldn't that be his get out of court free card?
But even more interesting, shouldn't the maximum that they could sue anyone else for piracy who hasn't bought a blank cd or mp3 player be the maximum levy placed on any of such goods?
Just a thought.. and probably completely out to lunch but thought it would be funny if that was the case.
The end result is that you aren't even sure that the whole movie isn't just the insane fantasies of a privileged nutcase.
Then you got the point of the book (well at least I think). I read it. Twice. The first time for the gory bits and the second to actually read it and that was when I realized what you brought up. There are some truly gory parts and those were the reason why it got banned in Canada but the best parts are his description of his favourite bands. He devotes chapters to Whitney Houston and Phil Collins and I think Wham.
I love how my post got modded as flamebait. I was serious. If Apple actually released a version of OSX for X86 I wouldn't think twice about getting rid of Windows.
I would love to run OSX but I am not about to go and buy a whole new machine just to run a different OS. And this is probably why linux will have a better chance at knocking some of MS usershare over to it than Apple.

They're kids, chances are they didn't look up anything. They probably figured "hey let's see if this works".

Sad I know.
in about two months when there are maybe 10 people in the audience. It's a lot nicer to watch a movie when there is barely anyone there.
If I had a big screen, I probably would wait until it came out on DVD. Then again looking at how long it too for Ep 4,5, and 6 to come out....

The only thing I wish GPG or Windows Privacy Tray had was ability to work with S/MIME.

Another option is Windows Privacy Tray which is based off of GnuPG.

That's the real culture shock of moving to Cali. That they all look like everyone else.

Oh yes forgot about that. I got humour out of his description of going to a U2 concert and thinking that him and Bono were the same type of person.
What is funny is that he was the 80's version of a metrosexual.

Definitely a good read.
That's fine. Run the app as administrator using runas in a batch file but the user doesn't need admin priviledges.
