[00:00] <DuoMaxwel> norton internet security is a system hog
[00:00] <TwisTbanG> oh ya...
[00:00] <TwisTbanG> But its good
[00:00] <DuoMaxwel> meh
[00:00] <DuoMaxwel> i havent run an antivirus in 4 years
[00:00] <TwisTbanG> I dont have it
[00:00] <DuoMaxwel> and my computer is virus-free
[00:03] <Jumpie> dude i have bit defender
[00:03] <Jumpie> its way less footprint
[00:03] <Jumpie> always found stuff
[00:04] <TwisTbanG> All I have is AVG, Ad-Aware SE, and reg-cleaner
[00:05] <TwisTbanG> nice little program to clean out my whole registry

[00:06] <Ghostwolf> always found stuff?
[00:07] <Ghostwolf> how often do you get viruses exactly Jumpie
[00:08] <Jumpie> i mean wheen there's stuff
[00:08] <Jumpie> spyware, etc
[00:08] <Jumpie> rarely Ghostwolf
[00:09] <Jumpie> its been from my wife clicking stuff mainly :)
[00:09] <Jumpie> also....we loaded one of her old harddrives as a secondary
[00:09] <Jumpie> and it immediately detectesd some mp3 with virii
[00:09] <Jumpie> probably she got from kazaa or somethin
[00:09] <Ghostwolf> mp3 with viruses?
[00:09] <TwisTbanG> pornography creates spyware
[00:09] <Ghostwolf> that's not even possible is it?
[00:10] <Ghostwolf> http://www.f-secure.com/hoaxes/mp3vir.shtml
[00:10] <Jumpie> Ghostwolf of course
[00:10] <Ghostwolf> I dunno... I'd kind of trust f-secure
[00:10] <Jumpie> i can embed a virus in a jpg
[00:11] <Ghostwolf> in a jpg yes cause there's meta data
[00:11] <Jumpie> alot of those p2p apps have planted mp3s
[00:11] <Ghostwolf> but id3 tags are no meta-data
[00:11] <Jumpie> as soon as the mp3 was copied to my hard drive from hers to my main
[00:11] <Jumpie> it detected it and cleaned it
[00:11] <Jumpie> it was a trojan
[00:11] <Jumpie> norton is just WAY WAY too system demanding
[00:11] <Jumpie> and it hooks too much soemtimes causing problems, and doesnt uninstall grace
[00:11] <Jumpie> plus BD is $20
[00:27] <TwisTbanG> soooo
[00:34] <Jumpie> TwisTbanG u good with any vb stuff
[00:34] <TwisTbanG> What does vb mean ? (probablly not LOL)
[00:37] <Jumpie> um..visual basic
[00:37] <Jumpie> lol
[00:37] <TwisTbanG> nope
[00:37] <TwisTbanG> All I do is play.
[00:49] <Jumpie> anyone a vb programmer here?
[00:50] <Jumpie> tryin to items.add a line of text and then a variable from a loop to combo b
[00:51] <Ghostwolf> wtf
[00:51] <Ghostwolf> my computer is randomly rebooting
[00:51] <Jumpie> h4x
[00:52] <Ghostwolf> I blame microsoft cause it was their bloody ie7 security update that chan
[00:52] <Jumpie> reollback
[00:58] <soma> lol

[01:52] <divxdude> anyone good with non-auto firewall setup? i'm usging Ghostwall fro x64 but
[01:53] <divxdude> why must firefox always use a different port how can i make it just use a
[01:53] <divxdude> ports*
[01:56] <et_> hey
[01:56] <et_> what os you on
[01:56] <divxdude> x64
[01:56] <et_> hmm
[01:56] <divxdude> xp
[01:56] <et_> i dont think they got it going on 64 atm
[01:57] <et_> why run 64bit os
[01:57] <et_> thats like asking for probs
[01:57] <et_> since it isnt mainstream yet
[01:57] <divxdude> got a dual core setup
[01:57] <et_> so
[01:57] <et_> that dont mean run a 64bit os
[01:57] <et_> or are you just running xp
[01:58] <divxdude> i got alot of work into this ... its xp.x64
[01:58] <et_> ohh
[01:58] <et_> i was hoping you said xp cuz i really love this fw made by jetico
[01:59] <divxdude> jetico ay
[01:59] <et_> yeah
[01:59] <et_> very nice stuff they got
[01:59] <divxdude> is it applicatuion based?
[01:59] <et_> well check em out
[01:59] <et_> maybe they geared up since i last looked
[01:59] <et_> but they are win base
[01:59] <divxdude> i triedt komodo and outpost really didnt like em
[02:00] <et_> so i havent looked in a while
[02:00] <et_> man back in the day the only other wall i really liked besides jetico was tiny
[02:00] <divxdude> zonalarm abandoned the x64 version
[02:00] <et_> pfft
[02:00] <et_> i dont like that crap
[02:00] <et_> za is stinky
[02:00] <et_> lol
[02:01] <et_> it doesnt really grant you full power
[02:01] <et_> and it wont stop like some win process
[02:01] <et_> like jetico asks even if you want win time server to connect
[02:01] <et_> and any little thing almost
[02:01] <divxdude> by aplication name tho right?
[02:01] <et_> it aks
[02:01] <et_> very bitchy
[02:02] <et_> and hash
[02:02] <et_> so if you update a proggie
[02:02] <et_> the rule changes
[02:02] <et_> cuz hash changed
[02:02] <divxdude> jetico works for xp.x64?
[02:02] <et_> also good for if someone tries to inject
[02:02] <et_> etc...
[02:02] <et_> i dont know
[02:02] <et_> check the site
[02:03] <divxdude> k
[02:03] <et_> http://www.jetico.com/
[02:03] <et_> most is freeware
[02:03] <et_> so they are preety cool
[02:04] <yoda-work> is there a way to download a whole directory off a webserver? I can acces
[02:04] <et_> maybe a web spider
[02:04] <et_> lol
[02:04] <yoda-work> there has to be a more legit way to do it..
[02:04] <et_> i used to have a cool one
[02:04] <et_> it would dl the whole site
[02:04] <et_> everything
[02:04] <et_> links
[02:05] <et_> and where the links went
[02:05] <yoda-work> thankgod I'm not you ;p
[02:05] <et_> etc...
[02:05] <et_> but you could set how far it would go with links
[02:05] <yoda-work> heh eye
[02:05] <et_> i would set it like to maybe 2
[02:05] <et_> was a neat tool
[02:05] <et_> i forgot what it was called
[02:05] * Osc changes topic to 'General Help. JUST ASK! NO Illegal/Bots/Scripts/Politics/Medical/Ho
[02:06] <et_> it still would take the same time as doing it manualy
[02:06] <et_> just it was automated
[02:07] <et_> so you really dont need the software
[02:07] <et_> just do it manualy
[02:08] <yoda-work> it takes forever...

[06:21] <cactus2> hi all
[06:22] <cactus2> I have a problem with firefox: I maybe have update firefox and now I have
[06:22] <phisher1> on behalf of everyone, hello
[06:22] <phisher1> each tab has its own x button
[06:23] <Kasc1990> I cut my hand and it's not scabbed over at all because the skin was left i
[06:23] <pixil> Is the skin puffy and red?
[06:24] <pixil> (around the wound)
[06:24] <Ghostwolf> cactus2: if you get really stuck delete C:\Documents and Settings\<use
[06:24] <Ghostwolf> this will force firefox to a default configuration
[06:24] <Kasc1990> slighty red close to the cut, is puffy swollen? then is so it isnt puffy
[06:24] <Ghostwolf> loosing all custom placements
[06:24] <cactus2> uhmm
[06:25] <Kasc1990> pixil, shall I take a picture
[06:25] <pixil> Kasc1990: Might be a minor infection. I would dab some peroxide on it, then
[06:25] <cactus2> uhm
[06:25] <cactus2> <Ghostwolf>: what I'll loose?
[06:26] <cactus2> the addons also?
[06:26] <Kasc1990> I doubt my parents have peroxide, or neosporin,
[06:26] <cactus2> and the preferites also?
[06:26] <deww> Kasc1990: what about alcohol
[06:26] <Ghostwolf> no
[06:27] <Ghostwolf> just custom settings
[06:27] <Kasc1990> I don't think so deww
[06:27] <cactus2> ok
[06:27] <Ghostwolf> like theme settings, etc
[06:27] <Ghostwolf> just rename it if unsure
[06:30] <cactus2> ok
[06:30] <cactus2> thanks
[06:30] <cactus2> :)
[06:34] <cactus2> ghostwolf
[06:34] <cactus2> I have tried but the problem ther is still
[06:35] <Ghostwolf> fire it up in safe mode then... that'll disable everything temporarily
[06:36] <Ghostwolf> http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode
[06:36] <cactus2> uhm ok
[06:38] <ebbtepid> how great would be the performance hit when getting a 2MB Cache instead of
[06:40] <Ghostwolf> depends on what you're doing... but usually noticable
[06:42] <ebbtepid> how noticeable?
[06:42] <ebbtepid> for a 2.0ghz 2gig ram
[06:42] <ebbtepid> duo core notebook
[06:42] <Ghostwolf> noticable
[06:42] <ebbtepid> like.. i should pay another $200 noticable?
[06:43] <Ghostwolf> depends on what you're doing
[06:43] <ebbtepid> graphic design
[06:43] <deww> most users won't notice the difference
[06:43] <ebbtepid> and many apps open at once
[06:43] <Ghostwolf> you won't notice much with those
[06:44] <ebbtepid> so when would i notice? for gaming?
[06:44] <Ghostwolf> anything with lots of repeating data
[06:45] <Ghostwolf> gaming, probably mathamatics (haven't checked), running sql
[06:49] <cactus2> ghostwolf
[06:49] <cactus2> how is possible that
[06:49] <Ghostwolf> is what?
[06:49] <cactus2> if I use the option: continue in safe mode
[06:49] <cactus2> it works
[06:50] <cactus2> while if I use to correct the error and to reboot firefox it doesn't work
[06:50] <cactus2> ?
[06:50] <cactus2> *works
[06:50] <Ghostwolf> so it's probably a plugin causing it
[06:50] <Ghostwolf> start disabling plugins 1 by 1
[06:50] <cactus2> ok
[06:52] <pixil> Those UFOs still circling Texas?
[06:52] <pixil> :o
[06:52] <Jumpie> haha
[06:52] <cactus2> ok
[06:52] <cactus2> thanks
[06:52] <pixil> It was an anal probe I tell ya!
[06:52] <Jumpie> i think its funny how the military is like 'ya um thats 2 airliners...and if
[06:52] <Jumpie> RIGHT
[06:52] <cactus2> it was skype plug in
[06:52] <cactus2> :)
[06:52] <cactus2> thank you very much
[06:52] <pixil> Jumpie: Par for the course...
[06:52] <Jumpie> how idiotic do they think people are
[06:52] <Ghostwolf> pixil: it's texus... probably random buck shot falling down...
[06:53] <pixil> Ghostwolf: Obviously you didn't hear much about it. :-)
[06:53] <Ghostwolf> the lake erie thing?
[06:53] <pixil> Uhm, no
[06:53] <Ghostwolf> no that's wrong area I guess
[06:53] <Ghostwolf> so tell me about it
[06:53] <pixil> That would be far north of Texas. :-)
[06:53] <pixil> Well, I actually thought I was starting the discussion in #helpchat. :-/

[07:22] <xxl3w> When I'm in system information on XP and I'm looking at startup program under

[07:23] <Ghostwolf> bizinichi: seems to be
[07:23] <Ghostwolf> I can't grab it
[07:24] <bizinichi> xxl3w, you mean: C:\Documents and Settings\$username\Start Menu\Programs\
[07:24] <bizinichi> is that what you're talking about xxl3w?
[07:24] <Ghostwolf> xxl3w: 2 second google: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutoria
[07:25] <xxl3w> no, that's the "common startup" place
[07:30] <bizinichi> HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shel
[07:30] <bizinichi> HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User
[07:31] <bizinichi> theres a key there that tells it to go to your username's startup folder
[07:31] <bizinichi> for startup
[07:46] <xxl3w> ok, this guy's computer has about 1000+ things in the "Startup" location
[07:46] <xxl3w> and they're just random files, like a recent pdf he's opened
[07:46] <bizinichi> do they open up pdfs when he boots his computer?
[07:46] <bizinichi> wierd
[07:46] <xxl3w> they're not in msconfig or anything
[07:46] <xxl3w> no
[07:46] <xxl3w> it just takes a LONG load time
[07:46] <bizinichi> do they actually lead to a file?
[07:47] <xxl3w> yea
[07:47] <bizinichi> maybe explorer is searching for the nonexistant pdfs and takiung a long t
[07:47] <bizinichi> oh they exist
[07:47] <xxl3w> i'm wondering where the config is to get it out
[07:47] <xxl3w> heh
[07:49] <xxl3w> most of them are dll files
[07:49] <xxl3w> and i just looked again. they don't have a path on them
[07:49] <xxl3w> they just have the filename
[07:49] <xxl3w> so i bet that's why it's so slo
[07:51] <bizinichi> well if they dont have a path on them
[07:51] <bizinichi> theyre using the PATH variable, ie c:\windows or c:\windows\system32\
[07:51] <bizinichi> or what have you=, other common PATHs
[07:53] <xxl3w> so is the "Startup" location the user's startup folder?
[07:56] <xxl3w> i just thought about it
[07:56] <xxl3w> he has IE 6 installed. that could be the problem

[09:52] <Andre66> how can I find out when a host TTL will expire?
[09:53] <pixil> That doesn't make sense.
[09:53] <pixil> Hosts don't have TTLs.
[09:53] <pixil> Packets have TTLs.
[09:53] <Andre66> okay so all the hosts within the zone expire at the same time?
[09:54] <pixil> No. All the packets do.
[09:54] <phisher1> All DNS records have a TTL property, specifying the amount of time other D
[09:54] <pixil> Yeah, I guess there's a whole range of things you COULD be talking about.
[09:55] <pixil> Andre66: What are you trying to accomplish or figure out? :-)
[09:55] <Andre66> I would like to know when a host such as mail.testing.com will expire from

[09:56] <phisher1> if using dig of course..

[09:56] <Andre66> I got a authority section result of 9774

[09:57] <onslaugt> I'm having a weird issue. I have users in a WAN site connected via IPSec t
[09:57] <phisher1> yes
[09:58] <Andre66> shouldn't it say the host I entered instead of saying just .com ?
[09:58] <phisher1> depends on your query

[09:59] <Life^> onslaugt: I've seen that a bunch for many reasons. One of which is that IIS
[09:59] <Life^> also is it just OWA or is it everything?
[09:59] <Life^> and lastly have you checked dns?
[09:59] <phisher1> actually, tbh not sure what that is, since that looks like a root server r
[10:00] <Life^> It's like 50% a dns issue. Where what happens on a wan is alot of times they
[10:00] <Life^> unless you appended the appropriate dns suffix

[10:15] <d--> ya awhile back and tried diff brands
[10:15] <Pacino88> anybody experienced with crystal reports?
[10:15] <d--> it wasnt used much but its a pioneer dvr110d i think
[10:15] <phisher1> welp, ask may be right
[10:16] <d--> kinda wierd it would die so quick maybe 30-40 cds in the 2yrs or about that i t
[10:16] <Pacino88> maybe dust in laser?
[10:17] <Pacino88> tbh if my cd burner died i wouldnt give a fuck
[10:17] <Pacino88> i would get a new one with dvd burner and better speed for 20 bucks
[10:17] <d--> ha i guess
[10:17] <Pacino88> but thats me

[13:04] <rhelic> MrSock: you're not, XP is a desktop OS
[13:04] <MrSock> is there a learning edition or a home server or something?

[13:04] <pixil> That might be what I'm thinking of.

[16:26] <MrPockets> i wouldn't put anything AOL 10 feet near my box...
[16:26] <john-john> you have to buy an additional service with skype though right

[16:39] <MrPockets> it'll spark when you reconnect ground also..
[16:39] <MrPockets> but its no biggie.
[16:40] <Star_Fire> you might touch something grounded when you're disconnecting the positive

[18:06] <Medikit> how much is too much to spend on an engagement ring :p
[18:06] <drakonan> so what happens if i hook an 8 ohm speaker two a 4 ohm stable amp, would i
[18:06] <RDMutt> erm
[18:06] <drakonan> my amp has the protect light on and i can't figure out why
[18:06] <RDMutt> impedance difference
[18:06] <drakonan> to i meant, not two
[18:07] <drakonan> it would just output only half the power right, would break anything would
[18:07] <RDMutt> no
[18:07] <RDMutt> that's wattage you're thinking of
[18:07] <RDMutt> impedence is resistance, your amp can't put out that much power
[18:07] <drakonan> i didn't think that these speakers (dual voice coil) would be hooked to be
[18:08] <drakonan> and i hooked it to my 2 ohm stable ampl thinking it was 2 ohms, but it was
[18:08] <RDMutt> it shouldn't break anything. I'd be worried if you had an 8 ohm amp and 2 oh
[18:09] <drakonan> that's what i thought, i've got it hooked to my computer for testing and i
[18:09] <Sebboh> ... How does that not overheat the amp? I've never understood impedance.
[18:09] <drakonan> phono to rca's, 4 ohms to each 2 ohm stable channel
[18:09] <drakonan> less power is going to them sebboh
[18:09] <drakonan> less ohms means more power
[18:09] <drakonan> e/r=i
[18:10] <drakonan> v over ohms equals current
[18:10] <drakonan> volts
[18:10] <Sebboh> Devices pull power.. It isn't pushed to them. that's how you blow a fuse b
[18:10] <drakonan> but every time i hook the rca up the light goes red on the amp
[18:11] <drakonan> fuses are good
[18:11] <RDMutt> sebboh; I don't understand impedance either. I'm a sophomore in highschool,
[18:11] <RDMutt> I know the gist... that's about it
[18:12] <Sebboh> Fuses.. are.. Good. Hm. omg, I just remembered, I put a 65 amp fuse in a 5

[18:36] <predata> just hoping it's worth the AU$180 i just spent on it heh.
[18:37] <RDMutt> oh if you have 5.1 it should be worth it
[18:37] <krisp> should be fine, but you should also know that spdif doesnt have enough bandwi
[18:37] <krisp> so from the pc you're better off using the 3 analog channels
[18:37] <krisp> unless you are playing dvds
[18:39] <predata> the new soundcard uses the spdif for DTS Live encoding... I figure this mea
[18:40] <krisp> dont know, but it might
[18:40] <krisp> for that price probably :)

[19:12] <Avi-Vahl> looks right
[19:12] <Avi-Vahl> :/
[19:12] <Avi-Vahl> should resolve to 127.0.0.1
[19:12] <deww> it should
[19:13] <perverted> does anyone know what part of the world produces the largest squids ?

[19:17] <deww> your nameserver, 10.0.0.38, doesn't have a record for "localhost"
[19:17] <Avi-Vahl> why does it go to my router to check for localhost?
[19:17] <Avi-Vahl> Should it?
[19:18] <Avi-Vahl> it should automatically resolve to 127.0.0.1, according to the hosts file,
[19:18] <Avi-Vahl> :/
[19:18] <deww> it should because thats what your nameserver is set to

[19:18] <deww> :P
[19:18] <Avi-Vahl> I thought hosts file is first
[19:18] <Avi-Vahl> :/
[19:20] <deww> maybe back i nthe old days before dns servers :)
[19:20] <Avi-Vahl> using hosts file should eliminate the call to the dns server :/

[19:22] <Avi-Vahl> eliminating a request to the DNS server
[19:22] <Avi-Vahl> so it should eliminate
[19:22] <Avi-Vahl> why doesn't it automatically resolve to 127.0.0.1 :-(
[19:23] <Ghostwolf> I haven't been reading... what's the problem?
[19:24] <Avi-Vahl> [05:16] <Avi-Vahl> http://pastebin.ca/856865
[19:24] <Avi-Vahl> when I do nslookup for localhost
[19:24] <Avi-Vahl> it won't resolve to 127.0.0.1
[19:24] <Avi-Vahl> :
[19:24] <Avi-Vahl> :/
[19:24] <Ghostwolf> nslookup?
[19:25] <Ghostwolf> it's workin right Avi-Vahl
[19:26] <Ghostwolf> localhost is always the local computer
[19:26] <Ghostwolf> so nslookup is just asking the remote server what local host is
[19:26] <Avi-Vahl> oh
[19:26] <Avi-Vahl> alright
[19:26] <Ghostwolf> & tells you your computer which it knows as your external ip
[19:26] <Avi-Vahl> I see
[19:27] <Avi-Vahl> should it resolve to 127.0.0.1?
[19:27] <Avi-Vahl> shouldn't?
[19:27] <Avi-Vahl> **
[19:27] <Ghostwolf> no
[19:27] <Ghostwolf> because it's asking a remote server what it is
[19:27] <Avi-Vahl> I see...
[19:27] <Ghostwolf> the remote server looks it up & sees it as your computer
[19:28] <Ghostwolf> it answers with the only ip it knows for your computer
[19:28] <Ghostwolf> which is the external one
[19:28] <Avi-Vahl> C:\Users\Avi>nslookup 127.0.0.1
[19:28] <Avi-Vahl> Server: SL2141.home
[19:28] <Avi-Vahl> Address: 10.0.0.138:53
[19:28] <Avi-Vahl> Name: localhost
[19:28] <Avi-Vahl> Address: 127.0.0.1
[19:28] <Avi-Vahl> when I lookup 127.0.0.1
[19:28] <Avi-Vahl> is says
[19:28] <Avi-Vahl> that
[19:28] <Ghostwolf> bit different there
[19:28] <Avi-Vahl> 10.0.0.138 == my router
[19:29] <Ghostwolf> little odd there but no big deal
[19:29] <Ghostwolf> is it causing a problem?
[19:29] <Avi-Vahl> well
[19:29] <Avi-Vahl> I had this problem w/ a program
[19:29] <Avi-Vahl> which I set up a local proxy
[19:29] <Avi-Vahl> just to test
[19:30] <Avi-Vahl> and when I did localhost
[19:30] <Avi-Vahl> it didn't connect to the proxy
[19:30] <Avi-Vahl> and when I did 127.0.0.1
[19:30] <Ghostwolf> did you set the port as well?
[19:30] <Avi-Vahl> it did :/
[19:30] <Avi-Vahl> sure i set the port
[19:30] <Ghostwolf> & some programs may not use hostnames
[19:30] <Avi-Vahl> wow
[19:30] <Avi-Vahl> I'll check
[19:30] <Avi-Vahl> cuz
[19:30] <jennifer_> How complex are the programs used for javascript obfuscation and compress
[19:30] <Avi-Vahl> I just tested a localftp server
[19:31] <Avi-Vahl> and connecting via IE7 ftp://username:pass@localhost/ works
[19:31] <Ghostwolf> some programs
[19:31] <Avi-Vahl> so
[19:31] <Avi-Vahl> I guess it's that program
[19:32] <deww> anyone here have first hand experience with lasik surgery?
[19:32] <Ghostwolf> I'd say your system is fine
[19:32] * jennifer_ is now known as khafra
[19:32] <Avi-Vahl> That's Ghost and deww
[19:32] <Avi-Vahl> Thanks***
[19:33] <Ghostwolf> which program btw?
[19:33] <Avi-Vahl> you've been really helpful. Thank you!
[19:33] <Avi-Vahl> uTorrent, I want to code my own tracker
[19:33] <Avi-Vahl> so I'm capturing some of the protocol via proxy
[19:33] <Avi-Vahl> :-)
[19:33] <Avi-Vahl> I think it's a problem w/ the latest version only
[19:34] <Avi-Vahl> beta version
[19:34] <deww> cool
[19:35] <Avi-Vahl> alright
[19:35] <Avi-Vahl> thanks! :)
[19:35] <Avi-Vahl> ttyl
[19:37] <Ghostwolf> ah
[19:38] <Ghostwolf> utorrent does have hostname support but loopback is a known error as of e
[19:39] <TheUni> anyone recommend a good linux firewall/router, preferably with web gui? look
[19:39] <althetv> How do i make a stastics that if there were 10 people and 6 people voted fo
[19:41] <benxx> read the topic, that might help you figure it out
[19:41] <benxx> after Medical, but before Drama
[19:41] <althetv> it's not homework
[19:45] <benxx> anyone here know smalltalk?
[19:48] <deww> TheUni: i hear good things of smoothwall
[19:48] <TheUni> deww: smoothwall seems to be its own OS
[19:48] <deww> yeah
[19:49] <TheUni> i've already got a debian server running... want to add routing to it
[19:50] <n909> anyone know if it's possible for some kind of damaged cd to permanently disabl
[19:50] <deww> yeah!
[19:51] <Ghostwolf> unlikely n909
[19:51] <TheUni> a sony cd :P
[19:51] <n909> then i dunno how i have four cdroms that all died at the same time.
[19:51] <Ghostwolf> it's like asking if a broken record can break a record player
[19:51] <Ghostwolf> only a little less likely
[19:52] <Ghostwolf> cause there's less physical contact
[19:53] <deww> TheUni: shorewall is the other one i can think of. for a simple one. i use qta
[19:54] <TheUni> yea, configuring shorewall now
[19:54] <deww> or was it quicktables...
[19:54] <TheUni> trying to ease my way into iptables
[19:54] <deww> shorewall confused the heck out of me ^_^
[19:54] <TheUni> heh
[19:54] <TheUni> i'd like to do what i was hoping for at the start... run smoothwall or m0n0w
[19:54] <deww> http://qtables.radom.org/
[19:54] <TheUni> but just don't think it's possible
[19:55] <deww> throw a mini pc in front of it!!
[19:56] <TheUni> nah, the point is for the server to do EVERYTHING. then just have dummy mach
[19:56] <TheUni> just a fun project
[19:58] <Ghostwolf> anyone here play zoo tycoon?
[20:02] <DJ_HaMsTa> are there any bigger lcd screens for pc then 30 in ?
[20:02] <Ghostwolf> DJ_HaMsTa: most modern lcd screens have dvi & some computers have hdmi
[20:03] <DJ_HaMsTa> Ghostwolf: what does that have to do with my question ?
[20:03] <Ghostwolf> nothing I guess
[20:03] <DJ_HaMsTa> thanks!
[20:03] <Ghostwolf> *cough*idiot*cough*
[20:03] <|Jason8|> Hey guys.
[20:04] <DJ_HaMsTa> *cough*cant read*cough*
[20:04] <|Jason8|> I've been using Firefox on my computer for a long while now, and just rece
[20:04] <|Jason8|> IE still works, but Firefox returns a "Server not found" error.
[20:05] <|Jason8|> I'm guessing it's a firewall problem, but I don't have access to that.
[20:05] <DJ_HaMsTa> reinstall it ?
[20:05] <|Jason8|> Tried that.
[20:05] <benxx> DJ, I would imagine you could get any size LCD for your computer. Even if it
[20:05] <Ghostwolf> |Jason8|: proxy
[20:05] <|Jason8|> I've also tried the user agent switcher, which doesn't help.
[20:05] * Osc changes topic to 'General Help. JUST ASK! NO Illegal/Bots/Scripts/Politics/Medical/Ho
[20:05] <benxx> I know I can hook up my 50" to my laptop

[20:05] <|Jason8|> Ghostwolf, Firefox cannot connect to any internet sources.
[20:06] <Ghostwolf> |Jason8|: I'm saying it's probably the proxy

[20:06] <DJ_HaMsTa> |Jason8|: tools, properties advanced, settings
[20:06] <|Jason8|> YEah.
[20:06] <|Jason8|> Okay.
[20:06] <|Jason8|> It's all set correctly.
[20:06] <DJ_HaMsTa> REINSTALL IT!
[20:06] <Ghostwolf> sigh
[20:06] <|Jason8|> I REINSTALLED IT!
[20:07] <DJ_HaMsTa> humm
[20:07] <Ghostwolf> game time... getting dense in here
[20:07] <|Jason8|> I was curious if there was a way to "spoof" firefox's requests as IE
[20:07] <DJ_HaMsTa> cant be firewall
[20:07] <DJ_HaMsTa> use the same port as ie
[20:07] <drewbuntu> |Jason8|: there is a plugin to do that
[20:07] <|Jason8|> drewbuntu, if it's the user agent switcher, I've tried it.
[20:08] <drewbuntu> you can also use something like admuncher that can rewrite your browser n
[20:08] <deww> http://johnbokma.com/mexit/2004/04/24/changinguseragent.html an other way

[20:21] <dealtj> could someone help me look for a driver, all in wonder 9600 series
[20:22] <dealtj> i look at the ati website
[20:22] <dealtj> but it says amd
[20:22] <DJ_HaMsTa> amd bought ati
[20:22] <dealtj> oh
[20:22] <DJ_HaMsTa> u can get the driver for ur card there
[20:22] <dealtj> they mustve moved it around cuz i cant find the driver on that site
[20:23] <dealtj> u think u could browse for me?
[20:23] <drewbuntu> dealt, just goto windows update
[20:23] <drewbuntu> it wil find the driver for you
[20:23] <VitaminB> hey
[20:24] <DJ_HaMsTa> i will sir, but first, may i will make you a cup of tea and serve it fres
[20:24] <VitaminB> is deww here
[20:24] <VitaminB> hey can anyone help me?
[20:24] <VitaminB> im trying to make a USB? boot disk
[20:24] <dealtj> for like counterstrike or day of defeat, i think they want u to download it
[20:24] <mikeLAWre> anyone know where a list of viruses checksum are?
[20:24] <mikeLAWre> md5 or whatever else?
[20:25] <drewbuntu> mikeLAWre: virus arent detected with checksums
[20:25] <drewbuntu> they are checked with heuristics and signatures
[20:25] <mikeLAWre> hashes
[20:25] <mikeLAWre> md5 etc.. hashes
[20:25] * E_T` is now known as et__
[20:25] <drewbuntu> anyways, norton used to publish the list off all signatures
[20:26] <drewbuntu> not sure if they still do
[20:26] <drewbuntu> i would try google
[20:26] <dealtj> oh wait, i think when i try running the game, it'll direct me where exactly
[20:26] <VitaminB> well boys and gals, my internet company put me back on dial up modem conne
[20:26] <VitaminB> is it me or are we goingbackward with DSL ..this is with AT&T
[20:26] <mikeLAWre> yeah I am googling, thanks for the info
[20:28] <VitaminB> the only thing dialup is good for..is chat
[20:28] <VitaminB> hell its 5 minutes to load yahoo mail
[20:29] <mikeLAWre> think i may follow norton's anti-bot approach
[20:30] <drewbuntu> what are you trying to do?
[20:30] <mikeLAWre> it detects various things like the program doesn't have a window, is usin
[20:30] <mikeLAWre> just start a free open source detection tool
[20:31] <drewbuntu> heh
[20:31] <drewbuntu> detection is so 1999
[20:31] <drewbuntu> prevention is key
[20:31] <VitaminB> pe encrypted? whats that?
[20:31] <mikeLAWre> exe's,dll,ocx,scr,sys etc.. are all Pe files(portable executables)
[20:31] <VitaminB> drewbuntu what do you do
[20:32] <mikeLAWre> and how can you prevent if you can't detect?
[20:32] <VitaminB> mike: so what do we need to know about these?
[20:32] <drewbuntu> VitaminB: i do many things
[20:32] <mikeLAWre> can't fight what you don't see
[20:32] <VitaminB> so wahts the point here?
[20:32] <drewbuntu> mikeLAWre: all detection does it look for known factors, it is well publi
[20:33] <VitaminB> so whats the big picture?
[20:33] <mikeLAWre> how else can you expect to stop something drew?
[20:33] <drewbuntu> lock down a system better
[20:33] <drewbuntu> get the OS makers to change their ways
[20:34] <Anthraxus> Well they also look for suspicious activity: like programs and dll's that
[20:34] <Anthraxus> Also, progs that try and replace crucial system files
[20:34] <mikeLAWre> well we've seen what happens when you add security(e.g vista) it effects
[20:34] <Anthraxus> And or try and change startup configs
[20:34] <Gravitas> anyone have an opinion on which us bank provides the best online checking
[20:35] <drewbuntu> VitaminB: are you asking what do i do to protect myself from virus?
[20:35] <Anthraxus> If you have a nice process guard, it will stop ANY program or DLL from in
[20:35] <mikeLAWre> Gravitas bb&t has always been a great bank
[20:35] <Gravitas> mike, site?
[20:35] <mikeLAWre> i've had issuse with bank of america and so have many people I know
[20:35] <mikeLAWre> www.bbt.com
[20:35] <Anthraxus> www.diamondcs.au
[20:35] <VitaminB> yes drewbuntu
[20:35] <Gravitas> thank you
[20:35] <Anthraxus> Process Guard = I HIGHLY recommend this. I've never had a problem since r
[20:36] <drewbuntu> well, at home I dont run as local admin, but as user, plus i use linux on
[20:36] <mikeLAWre> anthraxus as a programmer
[20:36] <VitaminB> is it free?
[20:36] <mikeLAWre> i've easily bypassed process guard
[20:36] <mikeLAWre> using simple kernel unhooking
[20:36] <VitaminB> drew hmm ok
[20:36] <drewbuntu> plus i also restrict websites for the kids so they can only goto sites i
[20:36] <VitaminB> so what if I am running as local admin?
[20:36] <VitaminB> what else can I do
[20:36] <Anthraxus> mikeLAWre= oh how so? You don't think they authors aren't programmers the
[20:37] <drewbuntu> i use a 3 way combo when running as admin, admuncher > windows defende
[20:37] <mikeLAWre> anthraxus that's why i'm letting him know
[20:37] <drewbuntu> plus i never click on random links
[20:37] <mikeLAWre> process guard isn't as secure as he may think
[20:37] <drewbuntu> if i need to, i use a linux VMWARE image inside windows
[20:37] <mikeLAWre> the game WOW bypasses PG aswell
[20:37] <VitaminB> what about masking your
[20:37] <VitaminB> IP add or MAC?
[20:37] <drewbuntu> masking?
[20:37] <VitaminB> wasnt that used before? is it still somewhat effecive?
[20:38] <drewbuntu> masking does nothing but give you anonimity
[20:38] <VitaminB> you knwo, can't you change you MAC to the public
[20:38] <VitaminB> kind of like a NAT for MAC address
[20:38] <drewbuntu> nah
[20:38] <mikeLAWre> thought it was hardcoded
[20:38] <VitaminB> how about going through multiple routers?
[20:38] <drewbuntu> BEST way to protect users in a network is a web proxy with all sorts of r
[20:38] <VitaminB> yeah it is hardcoded but in my routers config, there is something about MA
[20:38] <VitaminB> or something where youc an change you MAC address
[20:39] <VitaminB> i dont recall the exact word
[20:39] <drewbuntu> MAC addresses are only passed to the next hop
[20:39] <Anthraxus> mikeLAWre= that's why I've run DeepFreeze... lol anything you can code...
[20:39] <VitaminB> so the next hop=ISP?
[20:39] <drewbuntu> then it changes with each hop, MAC addresses are used to detirmin the nex
[20:39] <VitaminB> or my own router?
[20:39] <Anthraxus> MAC Spoofing
[20:39] <VitaminB> yeah MAC spoofing
[20:39] <drewbuntu> noce=node
[20:39] <VitaminB> is that still used?
[20:39] <Anthraxus> course
[20:39] <VitaminB> can I use it?
[20:39] <VitaminB> how do I use it?
[20:40] <drewbuntu> lol
[20:40] <mikeLAWre> drew is right and that's typically the scenario, make everyone connect th
[20:40] <mikeLAWre> restores on reboot
[20:40] <mikeLAWre> deep freeze
[20:40] <mikeLAWre> thats it
[20:40] <Anthraxus> Deepfreeze + MAC/ARP tables
[20:40] <Anthraxus> Mega security
[20:40] <VitaminB> MAC spoofing?
[20:40] <VitaminB> can I use that?
[20:40] <Anthraxus> Yes MAC spoofing is simple
[20:40] <VitaminB> or is that something that the bad guy do?
[20:41] <VitaminB> how do i use Mac spoofing
[20:41] <Anthraxus> Many hack/security testing tools will do it automatically
[20:41] <drewbuntu> mac spoofing is for hacking, it will do nothing for your internet usage
[20:41] <mikeLAWre> vitamin if you're worried about anonmity, you should check out tor
[20:41] <mikeLAWre> and read up on how it works
[20:41] <VitaminB> check what
[20:41] <VitaminB> hey what about this proxy thing
[20:41] <VitaminB> how do I set that up?
[20:41] <mikeLAWre> tor is still vulnerable to exposing your ip through flash/java but janusv
[20:42] <Anthraxus> There's software MAC spoofers also.
[20:42] <mikeLAWre> tor is a proxy system with encryption
[20:42] <Anthraxus> but they are sketchy
[20:42] <Anthraxus> Ah TOR project
[20:42] <mikeLAWre> yeah
[20:42] <VitaminB> never heardof it
[20:42] <Anthraxus> I read about that sounds interesting
[20:42] <Anthraxus> I'm going to use it
[20:42] <VitaminB> use what?
[20:43] <Anthraxus> TOR
[20:43] <VitaminB> how does TOR work
[20:43] <Anthraxus> http://www.torproject.org/
[20:43] <VitaminB> how doe sit work in general
[20:43] <et__> tor is a joke
[20:43] <mikeLAWre> yeah too hard to explain but for anonmity is the best anonymity system i'
[20:43] <VitaminB> i dont want to read about a joke; damn
[20:43] <Michael_W> I need to totaly anihlate this channel called #bonghit
[20:44] <mikeLAWre> et tor isn't a joke was developed by dod
[20:44] <VitaminB> annihilate
[20:44] <et__> okay
[20:44] <et__> well
[20:44] <et__> its banned on efnet
[20:44] <Michael_W> it's like a satanic cult
[20:44] <mikeLAWre> yeah due to abuse
[20:44] <VitaminB> so is there an easier to use Proxy setup?
[20:45] <Ghostwolf> anyone here play zoo tycoon?
[20:45] <mikeLAWre> vitaminb tor is very easy to use
[20:45] <et__> try ipv6
[20:45] <Anthraxus> It's basically randomized encrypted hops
[20:45] <VitaminB> how do you set up TOR?
[20:45] <mikeLAWre> download the vidalia bundle, and tor button for firefox, install
[20:45] <Anthraxus> so that each time data is sent, there's no real mappable path, until the
[20:46] <mikeLAWre> then click the button to connect your browser through tor anytime you wan
[20:46] <mikeLAWre> to filter out garbage as tor is just a socks proxy with encryption+onion
[20:46] <VitaminB> whats a socks proxy
[20:47] <mikeLAWre> http://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-doc-win32.html.en
[20:47] <drewbuntu> VitaminB: if you are looking to protect yourself from malicious websites
[20:47] <drewbuntu> way wrong path
[20:47] <VitaminB> then what?
[20:47] <Anthraxus> Heh... more like DON'T visit questionable sites... aka hack sites that wi
[20:48] <mikeLAWre> tor even has "hidden services" so a website like http://kse9sf9se9s.onion
[20:48] <VitaminB> so tor is an http proxy?
[20:48] <drewbuntu> VitaminB: the real answer for someone lazy, install linux or get a mac
[20:48] <mikeLAWre> no
[20:48] <drewbuntu> for windows, there is no ONE or EASY answer
[20:49] <VitaminB> so any websites I want to go through goes through TOR website?
[20:49] <mikeLAWre> tor is onion router but at client side views a simple socks4/5 proxy
[20:49] <drewbuntu> boot from an ubuntu live CD and check it out
[20:49] <mikeLAWre> privoxy lets you use tor like a http proxy
[20:49] <predata> what are 'transfer curves' in an acrobat .pdf document, and in what case wo
[20:50] <Anthraxus> You shouldn't be worried so much about hacker, as for corp advertising. T
[20:51] <ActiveOpt> anyone wouldnt happen to know whats a good banner app/site maker or w.e
[20:51] <ActiveOpt> its for a site
[20:51] <VitaminB> hells no
[20:51] <VitaminB> oops sorry
[20:51] <mikeLAWre> yeah and using internet explorer is a perfect way to let them install spy
[20:51] <ActiveOpt> lol..
[20:52] <mikeLAWre> it's quite sad really almost all the computers i've looked at, i ask them
[20:52] <drewbuntu> mikeLAWre: firefox IS NOT safer
[20:52] <mikeLAWre> not just alittle bit, but ALOT
[20:52] <drewbuntu> its still running windows
[20:52] <mikeLAWre> and drewbuntu firefox is alot safer than ie
[20:52] <drewbuntu> still subject to the same exploits
[20:52] <mikeLAWre> difference is
[20:52] <Anthraxus> firefox is becoming the new "IE," bloated, buggy, rushed betas
[20:53] <Anthraxus> :-/
[20:53] <mikeLAWre> any exploit that's been released for firefox that's been serious mozilla
[20:53] <drewbuntu> last 6 months firefox has had more security oatches then IE
[20:53] <drewbuntu> patches
[20:53] <mikeLAWre> or the next and forces patches
[20:53] <drewbuntu> so
[20:53] <mikeLAWre> IE patches take months
[20:53] <Anthraxus> yep
[20:53] <drewbuntu> so
[20:53] <drewbuntu> its still exploitable
[20:53] <VitaminB> the point then is that this internet stuff is like the oild west
[20:53] <Anthraxus> The only real protection is SMART surfing, a nice temp cache and wipe pro
[20:53] <poopstick> Is there any way to make a DVD ISO splittable so I can burn it onto sever
[20:53] <drewbuntu> and the websites have malicious code WAY before firefox patches
[20:53] <mikeLAWre> drew...firefox is ofcourse attacked more, they're *right now exploits tha
[20:53] <VitaminB> very new, very low security
[20:54] <mikeLAWre> none for firefox
[20:54] <mikeLAWre> NONE
[20:54] <VitaminB> anthrxus: whats a temp cache?
[20:54] <VitaminB> and whats wipe prog
[20:54] <Anthraxus> VitaminB= the folder where all the browsing files are stored
[20:54] <Anthraxus> basically
[20:55] <Anthraxus> Temp files for pages, pictures, javascript, activeX (Hackers delight!)
[20:55] <VitaminB> so where and how do you make a temp cahce
[20:55] <Anthraxus> ActiveX is the worst
[20:55] <Anthraxus> VitaminB= you don't, the broswer does
[20:55] <Anthraxus> A decent prog is CCleaner
[20:55] <VitaminB> ok so how do we get it to make it so its safer?
[20:55] <mikeLAWre> in terms of security there really is no comparison to firefox from IE...f
[20:55] <VitaminB> i dont get your point ..you said the only protection is a nice temp cache
[20:55] <Anthraxus> which will remove most of all the temp files/index.dat/other tmp files...
[20:56] <VitaminB> but if thebrowser makes it, how is it more safe?
[20:56] <drewbuntu> Anthraxus: wiping your temp cache does not protect you from malicious web
[20:56] <poopstick> Is there any way to make a DVD ISO splittable so I can burn it onto sever
[20:56] <Anthraxus> no no... I meant a nice prog that will remove temp cache.
[20:56] <VitaminB> whats a wipe prog?
[20:56] <Anthraxus> drewbuntu= true, but it keeps potentially malicious setup files and dlls
[20:56] <deww> poopstick: extract the contents. something like daemon tools might do it
[20:57] <drewbuntu> Anthraxus: no it doesnt
[20:57] <VitaminB> can you run IE through a USB stick and would that make ti safer if temp fi
[20:57] <drewbuntu> once it activate the exploit in your browser, the cahce does nothing
[20:57] <mikeLAWre> poweriso,magiciso will do it aswell poopstick
[20:57] <Anthraxus> Bull shit, you don't empty your cache often, 1000's of tmp files and all
[20:57] <drewbuntu> yes, but they have already been activated
[20:57] <Anthraxus> I didn't say the cache was directly responsible
[20:57] <Anthraxus> I say it's a part of the whole scheme.
[20:58] <Anthraxus> Malicious files are always hiding in tmp cache dirs
[20:58] <VitaminB> hey but what is a temp cache if the browser makes it?
[20:58] <drewbuntu> just set IE to empty cache on exit then
[20:58] <drewbuntu> but you guys are way off base of the first question
[20:58] <VitaminB> ok but i am wondering if I can't install Firefox on an USB stick and run i
[20:58] <Anthraxus> Plus tons of tracking cookies and mess are stored in temp cache
[20:58] <drewbuntu> this is the worst thing i have seen in #help in a while
[20:58] <VitaminB> wouldnt that make it safer since the tracks are stored on the USB stick an
[20:58] <mikeLAWre> IE wasn't created for speed nor security...it was created for easy integr
[20:58] <mikeLAWre> you want to use a real browser use firefox or opera, simple.
[20:59] <drewbuntu> changing browsers will not increase your security enough to even document
[20:59] <VitaminB> CAN U RUN FIREFOX off a USB DRIVE?
[20:59] <mikeLAWre> yes it will drew...
[20:59] <VitaminB> and will tHAT make it any SAFER?
[20:59] <Anthraxus> [11:53pm] <@Anthraxus> The only real protection is SMART surfing, a
[20:59] <drewbuntu> no it wont
[20:59] <VitaminB> why not
[20:59] <mikeLAWre> milw0rm.com search for firefox
[20:59] <VitaminB> if the temp files are on the USB drive
[20:59] <mikeLAWre> then internet explorer
[20:59] <mikeLAWre> then opera
[20:59] <Anthraxus> You're taking my comment(s) out of context and twisting them for your own
[20:59] <mikeLAWre> only IE has insane exploits
[21:00] <drewbuntu> Anthraxus: the better way is to run as non admin with good virus protecti
[21:00] <VitaminB> then wouldnt that be better.. to know your history, cookies and temp files
[21:00] <mikeLAWre> privoxy+squid is a nice filter system
[21:00] <drewbuntu> or run linux or run a mac
[21:00] <VitaminB> how dooes an offline proxy work
[21:00] <VitaminB> and how do you get good filtering with it
[21:01] <drewbuntu> offline should be offmachine
[21:01] <drewbuntu> is what i meant to say
[21:01] <VitaminB> how does that work
[21:01] <drewbuntu> super complicated
[21:01] <JFourier> any ops around
[21:01] <drewbuntu> you set regular expresions to look for executables or certain types of fi
[21:01] <VitaminB> what do you mean by offmachine though?
[21:01] <Anthraxus> drewbuntu= sorry I've NEVER been infected from some stupid hack site - an
[21:02] <drewbuntu> JFourier: this is not an oper channel, try /stats p
[21:02] <drewbuntu> and then contact local oper
[21:02] <VitaminB> what do you mean by offmachine though?
[21:02] <drewbuntu> Anthraxus: thats the most accurate thing you have said tonight
[21:02] <Anthraxus> hahha
[21:02] <Anthraxus> thank you
[21:02] <Anthraxus> :-p
[21:02] <JFourier> ok thanks
[21:03] <drewbuntu> lol
[21:03] <VitaminB> drewbyuntu what is offline proxy
[21:03] <VitaminB> rr off machine
[21:03] <drewbuntu> VitaminB: offmachine meaning not part of your local computer
[21:03] <VitaminB> so another machine on yoru lcoal PC?
[21:03] <VitaminB> or one on the net somewhere
[21:03] <drewbuntu> VitaminB: do you want an easy way to do this?
[21:03] <drewbuntu> is your computer decent?
[21:03] <drewbuntu> like dual core or something?
[21:03] <VitaminB> Centrino Duo
[21:03] <mikeLAWre> heh
[21:04] <mikeLAWre> laptop
[21:04] <drewbuntu> ok
[21:04] <drewbuntu> get the free vmware player
[21:04] <drewbuntu> then find the free ubuntu vmware image
[21:04] <VitaminB> whatsa vmware player
[21:04] <drewbuntu> run them, surf in the vmware with ABSOLOUTELY NO CHANCE of infection
[21:04] <VitaminB> whats a free vmware player
[21:04] <poopstick> Is there any way to store files from an DVD ISO on my hard drive and inst
[21:05] <VitaminB> i dont even know what that is
[21:05] <drewbuntu> VitaminB: google
[21:05] <Anthraxus> haha
[21:05] <VitaminB> im asking you

[21:05] <Anthraxus> nice
[21:05] <poopstick> any clue?
[21:05] <Anthraxus> If you're that worried... I'd start googling about exploits and how they
[21:05] * Osc changes topic to 'General Help. JUST ASK! NO Illegal/Bots/Scripts/Politics/Medical/Ho
[21:06] <VitaminB> im interested but not worried
[21:06] <VitaminB> forgeti t
[21:06] <VitaminB> im asking you to explain somethign and youc ant do it
[21:06] <VitaminB> just forget it
[21:06] <Anthraxus> Know the habits of your enemy better than your own!
[21:06] <VitaminB> you shoud never bring up anything youre not willing to explain
[21:06] <VitaminB> plain and simple
[21:06] <Anthraxus> You COULD google?
[21:06] <VitaminB> im on dialup
[21:06] <Anthraxus> it's free and more indepth that what you'll get here from 10 differing op
[21:06] <VitaminB> my isp, AT&T , has an outage in my aera

[21:07] <Anthraxus> Turn off your java settings and what not
[21:07] <Anthraxus> run opera
[21:07] <Anthraxus> it's 10x faster
[21:07] <drewbuntu> VitaminB: try admuncher
[21:07] <Anthraxus> than IE/FF
[21:07] <drewbuntu> www.admuncher.com
[21:07] <Anthraxus> I use adblockplus with G.Filter addon
[21:07] <VitaminB> dont call me an A muncher!!
[21:08] <deww> you can turn off image loading in most graphical browsers
[21:08] <drewbuntu> you can control image loading and flash as well as it WILL be a first lin
[21:08] <Anthraxus> I can't even remember the last time I saw a pop-up
[21:08] <Anthraxus> I turn ALL java off by default.
[21:08] <Anthraxus> I don't want anything manipulating the pages I view.
[21:08] <Jeaton> i have java disabled in Firefox
[21:08] <VitaminB> anthraxus: how
[21:08] <VitaminB> how do you turn off java?

[21:08] <Anthraxus> VitaminB= tools/options/content
[21:08] <Anthraxus> I believe
[21:09] <Anthraxus> OH! And install NoScript addon
[21:09] <VitaminB> ok i just turned off JAva
[21:09] <VitaminB> in Tools and Content
[21:09] <Anthraxus> It blocks CSS and all kinds of scripts from running
[21:09] <VitaminB> now will something not work now?
[21:09] <drewbuntu> exactly
[21:09] <Anthraxus> Noscript is awesome
[21:09] <VitaminB> no i mean will simpe web pages not work now?
[21:09] <drewbuntu> so much bad advice coming from here tonight
[21:10] * Anthraxus hands drew the mic, since he obviously is the only competent surfer... lol I'll
[21:11] <drewbuntu> Anthraxus: how is telling someone to turn off all JAVA good advice?
[21:11] <flintston> is there any other non-incredibly complicated way to specify drivers duri
[21:11] <drewbuntu> flintston: yes, you can slipstream them into the CD
[21:11] <flintston> i cannot for the life of me understand why hardware manufacturers are STI
[21:11] <Jessica15> how do i use nickserv here?
[21:11] <flintston> drewbuntu: that sounds complicated
[21:11] <deww> flintston: slipstream, but it isn't exactly easy
