    Doesn't sound like it was a fun process, I'll take your word for it. Its worked fine for me, blocked everything that's been sent at it. Good firewalls really are a pain in the ar$e to find I've found, I've settled with this one (after trying ZA/Outpost/Kerio/Jetico/AdAware).

    Good luck on finding one you like, Dan.

    Well, switched back to Mcafee, it does it's job for now, with my router's NAT set to paranoid levels, and my hardware firewall filtering stuff again.
    If openSuSE wasn't being such a b*tch, i'd use that instead of winblows all the time.

    YE GET A VIRUS OR trojan,THIS WILL SAVE YE ARSE

    NOTE I BACK UP MY REGISTRY EVERY DAY...


    ANOTHER PROGRAM I USE TO BACK MY REGISTRY,
    and it works great..
    windows registry back up sucks

    ERUNT - The Emergency Recovery Utility NT
    =========================================

    Registry Backup and Restore for Windows NT/2000/2003/XP


    http://www.larshederer.homepage.t-online.de/erunt/

    read this
    http://www.larshederer.homepage.t-online.de/erunt/erunt.txt

    EXAMPLE
    In Windows NT and 2000, the registry is never backed up
    automatically, and in XP it is backed up only as part of the bloated
    and resource hogging System Restore program which cannot even be used
    for a "restore" should a corrupted registry prevent Windows from
    booting. It has also become impossible to copy the necessary files,
    now called "hives" and usually named DEFAULT, SAM, SECURITY, SOFTWARE,
    SYSTEM in the SYSTEM32\CONFIG folder, to another location because they
    are all in use by the OS. And though the registry in an NT-based
    Windows is less likely to become corrupted than in other versions, it
    can still happen, and for these cases NT is simply missing an option
    for easy registry backup and restore as there is in Windows 9x/Me, to
    get the system up and running again in no time.

    French space agency to publish UFO archive online
    Posted by l33tdawg on Sunday, December 31, 2006 - 08:26 AM (Reads: 128)
    Source: Reuters
    http://today.reuters.com/news/artic...NCE-UFO.xml&WTmodLoc=TechNewsHome_C1_[Feed]-9


    The French space agency is to publish its archive of UFO sightings and other phenomena online, but will keep the names of those who reported them off the site to protect them from pestering by space fanatics. Jacques Arnould, an official at the National Space Studies Center (CNES), said the French database of around 1,600 incidents would go live in late January or mid-February. He said the CNES had been collecting statements and documents for almost 30 years to archive and study them. "Often they are made to the Gendarmerie, which provides an official witness statement ... and some come from airline pilots," he said by telephone.

    i've been using Mcafee for some years, in 8.0 they made it much leaner so it's much more forgiving on slower computers, though as usual they're expiring 8.0 for 9.0 or 10.0 now. I used to swear by BlackIce but got sick of all the endless intrusions/flashing icon claiming intrusions in the end; so much so that i gave up caring if they were real intrusions and canned it and went to Mcafee. Could never be doing with ZoneAlarm and i watched Norton bugger my dad's and brothers' PC's. Mcafee sorted both those out.

    For Linux i just use ClamAV.

    Happy New Year all..

    I, being a geek, am partial to anime wallpapers. There's always something interesting, hot, or just plain cool in anime.

    I even share a few between my PC and my PSP. A couple Ghost in the Shell and Outlaw Star ones keep me happy most of the year.

    Bitch: Tomorrow is school. My brain has withdrawn to the point where it needs rehab before math.

    I love anime because its not restricted by "reality" hollywood tries way to hard to bring realisim into a fictional world and kills half its adaptations by doing so,and game devs are slowly cuddling up the idea realisim is as good a idea as graphics first....

    Power Technology
    trex279 writes "The Wartsila-Sulzer RTA96-C turbocharged two-stroke diesel engine is the world's most powerful diesel engine built to date. Each cylinder displaces a whopping 111,143 cubic inches (1,820 liters, equivalent to a cube 4 feet on a side) and produces 7,780 horsepower. The engine is about the size of a small building." The engine is intended for use in container ships.
