the windowsxp built in firewall is actually better than zonealarm, norton internet security, and the mcafee thing by where it sits in relation to winsock. a: not as hostile with blocking/constant popups with applications (ie: do you wanna allow this? 43 thousand times) b: less issues with trying to install/uninstall some of this crap (norton internet security is seriously one of the most harrowing uninstall processes i've ever seen) c: more user intuitive (simple dial

Did I mention that he was in a fighting stance when he did it??? In a legal document such as dealing with this. Do NOT put that in there, word it as being an "aggressive stance".

the level of elitism in the mac scene is far higher than on windows. if you aren't making pro level graphics that wow EVERYONE you wouldn't even be considered on the top end sites for kaleidascope etc. while on windows a far lower standard is accepted and therefore the general arena is far more saturated with for lack of a better term... crap

there are plenty of phpnuke skin sites, best bet is to figure out who the author is and get ahold of them. alot of sites use phpnuke for their content management.. and by alot i mean thousands upon thousands going and blaming the sites for using it is kinda like blaming users on sites who don't know about wincust etc. using ripped wb skins, they just didn't know. i'd rather see the community react is a more mature way than the typical "american" response of shoot first then

the only reason this is all going on is the situation over in iraq is not something that people like at all its in the best interest to make up nice happy stories about some down home 19 year old blonde girl who gets "rescued" from a "hostile" location. "The true heros, the guys that saved her, refused to release their names." Spec ops was bored. Spec ops went on a preplanned "rescue mission" Active spec ops don't give out their names. Ever.
