I cleared out my PM box but it says you've chosen to not receive P M's.

Please do, Kris. You have my personal e-mail? I thought you did

Yup, I am no longer the administrator of these or any internet.com forums. Layoffs came down the pike this morning and I was one of them. So I want to thank everybody for all the help you gave to me...

The majority of spam isn't sent out by the people that want it sent. The majority of it comes from zombie machines who aren't even aware they're being used for that purpose. Spammers control huge...

The best way to deal with it is to use emails such as hotmail, which have a setting that only allows emails from your contacts to reach your inbox. All the other free emails I'm aware of allow spam...

The strongest monopolies always revolve around things that cannot be done without, and the Internet as an entity is not yet one of those.

That's precisely correct. It's just capitalism traveling a different avenue. There's no logic in demonizing it simply because it's a different avenue; a different medium. If you want to speak out...

It's a ridiculous notion that E commerce is somehow destroying this world. All it's doing is providing a more convenient means for people to shop and work. If you want to look for business that's...

As long as they stay cut off from the rest of the world, I don't particularly care. The problem is they start lashing out at the rest of the world, and we're usually at the top of the list.

Surprisingly enough, it actually works quite well. I'm using windows seven voice control right now. It's dictating this post as well.

I'm not sure. I mean every time you include a new character set you increase the possibilities exponentially. Just for argument's sake, we'll say the first character set contains five characters, as...

It's fraud. Have your legal department handle it. First a cease and desist letter, then whatever legal action is required. It's becoming more and more common, online content theft, but this is the...

That works for me. I'll propose it.

I'm fighting for it, Kris, believe me.

Give Avira a try, Kris. I've used both and not only is it a MUCH smaller footprint than MSSE but better detection rate.

Kaspersky usually starts out fine on any machine I've had it on but over time it starts really messing with and dragging out the boot process. Big footprint compared to Avira, which I use now. But...

Actually that's true. I ran a machine with no AV for eight years just by disabling JavaScript, using a hardwired firewall, being careful and occasionally using online scans.

Also surfing with a...

I still rate Kaspersky's detection quite highly, even though I'm no longer using it. Zone alarm I have no experience with.

That was a hack of the old software, it went when we upgraded the forum. We couldn't go on using a 5 yr old version that was no longer supported by vB.

If the community at large wants chit chat...

MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL!

thank you John. There are Java script items attempting to run, they format the RSS feeds. Outside of that I don't think there's any JavaScript running without a user event being involved, such as...

Yeah we had many requests not to display it on the home page so I complied.

SAINTS BE PRAISED! What an epic failure that was.

Yeah I forgot about that. I'll need clearance but we'll see if I can add it.

Maybe, but far too late to do anything about it now. It's no longer even owned by the same corporation that bought it from JP. All of it was before my time.
