  1. Depends mainly on the image format.
  2. I'm going to call a meeting of all the other biologists and tell them AtomicMX isn't satisfied. Nobody leaves until they all agree on a definition. Anyone wanna come with?
  3. I like the way Dov is putting all that effort into "maybe yes", even though we don't know what the "yes" is yet. <3

    books to read

    "Voyage of the Beagle" is the essential companion to "Origin of Species".
  5. There's no such thing as "windows hardware" - it's all the same stuff . And don't forget XP can be crashed by hardware, never mind fail to run it. Mandrake supports a vast array of hardware (most hardware is fairly generic to be honest). You're best off looking at Mandrake's support resources for specifics instead of asking us.
  6. That would work (if you included code to reload the page after the prompt is cleared), but since the prompt is modal all you have to do for infinite pop-ups with my code is make the event "onFocus". It's less typing As soon as you clear the prompt, the trigger regains focus and voila! New prompt.
  7. If you want to make your own pop-up prompt, this is the code: <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> <!-- function myAlert() { alert("Your properly escaped message here") } // --> </script> ^-- Goes before your closing HEAD tag. on[Event]="myAlert()" ^-- as an attribute of the HTML element you want to trigger the alert. You can find the list of generic events here: http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Events/events.html#Events-eventgroupings-htmlevents You should only use an alert if you really really really have no alternative.
  8. JavaScript is an interpreted language developed by Netscape. It started life as "LiveWire", then was renamed "LiveScript", and eventually became known as "JavaScript" after being passed to the ECMA. Java is a compiled programming language that Sun Microsystems started developing in 1990.
  9. It was a modal prompt, which is the most basic dialogue that JavaScript can trigger. It was probably attached to an "onLoad", "onFocus" or "onMouseOver" event. Note that java and javascript have nothing to do with each other, despite the names.
  10. On its own, with no extra software, servers, databases etc (unless you count IIS, which is a pile of dog poo).
  11. That would be his own fault for not ripping the binary and mounting it as a drive.

    I specifically chose the phrase "something naughty" because it covers a wide range of things, right down to the very trivial.
  13. Medieval? That's c. 500-1450 AD. When were the mid-range planets discovered? I know the Dutch didn't invent the telescope until 1600, but we can see Mars and Venus with the naked eye. What about Mercury and Jupiter?

    I was assuming you realised that none of the information he could gather belongs to him (in a moral or indeed legal sense), so we can safely assume it is "something naughty".
  15. I don't think they had any plans to cremate the remains "properly" tbh.
  16. 98 can't use NTFS, that's why. It's a FAT32 operating system. Luckily though XP can read either file system.

    This isn't something that "happened to him", it's something he did. His objective was to illicitly collect information at the key-stroke level. He even describes deliberately taking measures to evade network security.
  18. Any half-decent router will come with all the software/firmware and instructions you need. Maplins and CCL have some good routers.
  19. If one accepts your definition of 'man made', then clearly the answer is "both".
  20. When I get around to installing it on Friday when the new connection goes in, it'll be using 256-bit encryption with no public keys. I don't have any problem with people getting a free wireless connection (like my next door neighbour for instance), but I'm not chancing network penetration.
  21. Pretty much yeah! I just bought a LAN/wireless router myself. If you get a wireless router you have the option of plugging your PCs in with the network cables, or using a USB wireless antenna.

    I can't think of any legitimate reason for a non-admin to use a keystroke logger. Oh, and sending the results over normal FTP would have been spectacularly easy to spot btw Crash, so don't resent the Unix server logs.
