(In response to a select group of *******s and their self righteous reaction to us going out of business)
I would like to say something to...

Liking it so far. Been running it since the release. Very quick and low load. Was Vista the Windows ME of the current iteration of Microsoft's OSes?

Kill this thread! Kill it with fire! No, really, kill it...it serves no ongoing purpose, IMO. We (the posters) got everything off of our chests, I hope.

It really did work very well. Maybe a bit over the top with the "Norton Insight" tool that's included. LiveUpdate has always been a pain in the ass, but the update times and frequencies are...

Tried out Norton Security Suite. Looked good, light-weight, user-friendly. Would have bought it, but then I remembered that my ISP (Charter Communications) offers a Security Suite that is included...

Update:

Unbelievable! I have, and have had a WRT54G LinkSys router for a long time, but I could never get it to work under Vista. I uninstalled ZoneAlarm, shut down my computer, reset my modem...

Here's what I've got for you...

Nothing terribly suspicious to my amateur eye. Scheduler and PolicyAgent are functions within Vista that I've looked into. Can those processes be safely killed...

I've exhausted my knowledge trying to fix this one...

Here's the situation.

I went to GRC.com to do a port scan to make sure everything is ship shape with my firewall and security. GRC's scan...

Not very friendly reviews from what I have seen. You sure? I would try this http://security.symantec.com/sscv6/WelcomePage.asp instead. Don't download it...just do the security check online...

Dual boot Vista Home Premium (it works fine for me, dammit!) and (K)Ubuntu on my machine. My daughter's has (Ed)Ubuntu on it as a primary and a disconnected HDD with XP SP3 ready to go just in case....

That's exactly the problem. Immature users clicking before thinking. I personally detest websites like Myspace, facebook, and the 'social networking' type things...they are just breeding grounds...

This article http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/7725492.stm may explain that.

EDIT: Whoops...beaten to the punch, but still...that news sets a great precedent.

Poker at my house next Wednesday. We'll sit at my dining room table. You'll see my money and I'll see yours. I won't ask you for a login or a password or a CC#. I will, however, ask you to BYOB. ...

"Hacking is supposed to be about intellectual exploration, so resetting the password of someone’s Yahoo mailbox no matter if it’s the Pope, requires no more than two brain cells put into action."

pencil?

Using it right now. I'm impressed so far.

For a database solution Neg, have you looked into http://ww2.pervasive.com/Database/Products/Pages/PSQLOverview.aspx? May be too small for your needs, but the architecture is solid...

Two words: TIME STUDY.

We use them where I work to determine budgeted hours per department. (I work in a manufacturing plant where I am the lead in a particular department). Basically, you...

You're killing me here, Nihil, but I'll speak to that.

Here's the overall speech...we were learning. We learned, and we understand all of it now. Notice the lack of "script kiddie" type...

Still going to shill for ZoneAlarm Security Suite...sure it isn't free, but it works like a charm.

While most of us are aware of these keylogging devices, it's good to bring them up now and again to remind the newer users of computers about the seemingly innocuous or forgotten threats faced by the...

XP SP3 has been causing a lot of headaches for a lot of users from what I've heard, especially when it comes to 3rd party firewall/AV type applications. Try uninstalling your Checkpoint software,...

Not funny or amusing at all. It's one thing to poke fun at someone for whatever reason...it's completely another thing to maliciously (they knew what they were doing) attempt to cause harm (induce...

Indeed, nihil, TI was a huge issue before SP1, and MS has streamlined it some for the service pack. But it still runs, and it still chews up resources like crazy. I had forgotten about clearing the...

Trusted Installer.

For the members that don't know, Vista runs a background program called TrustedInstaller.exe in the background shortly after boot, and occasionally thereafter. From what I...
