I think this is another of Apple's Walled Garden moves, trying to create fear that anywhere outside their nice cozy eden is a virtual ghetto that will get you virtually shot.-TaoPhoenix (June 15, 2012, 10:06 AM)
Is there any truth to the rumor that the United States has applied for .bs, and plans on using it to replace .gov for all its websites?-40hz (June 15, 2012, 07:30 AM)
We can only hope... 
But I'm not sure if it's possible to do traffic analysis on TOR traffic to figure out the end points... Anyone know?Strategically placed "hostile" endpoints with their own back channel would break it rather nicely (for them...). Remember the DNS server stunt...-Renegade (June 13, 2012, 11:23 PM)
...They were just trying to help out...Sure they were... (Not!)Thanks for the report -- to be honest i never know about the shift+delete trick to bypass recycle bin. Let me look into it.-mouser (June 13, 2012, 09:05 PM)
I don't see this ending well. When private companies control cognates (root words like "book" or "apple" or "food"), it's simply too open to abuse. It really needs to have some kind of FRAND attached to it. Meh... This will go the same insane route as patents and copyright IP.-Renegade (June 13, 2012, 11:17 PM)
... part of the problem is how the media treats them. Calling them brilliant, etc... No, it takes brilliance to keep a sever secure.-db90h (June 13, 2012, 10:36 AM)
Part of the problem is the the Media knows scary stories keep people interested (however bogus they tend to be). No one wants to hear about the good news - unless it's on the level of a puppy being rescued from a mine shaft.-nudone (June 13, 2012, 11:16 AM)
Go Metro! Even the blue screen is now ugly!-TaoPhoenix (June 09, 2012, 03:36 PM)
Isn't Metro MS's touchy feelly OS?? Surprised MS didn't put a lil blurb about "touch the BSOD to feel better".
New feature.. you can now touch a BSOD!-Cloq (June 10, 2012, 05:30 PM)
That WOOF programme looks pretty innovative too.-IainB (June 10, 2012, 09:42 PM)
... Please click here and vote for the Humane Society of Marion County. I recently set up Windows SBS 2011 and connected my computer to the domain. Not an easy job as none of the methods suggested from the NEw User wizard on the server actually worked! It suggests opening http://connect on the machine you want to connect but there is absolutely no response from that address anywhere on the network. Installed the server 4 times without result - in the end I used a thumb drive and carried the connection software to the machine. Even so I had to manually establish a domain connection before it would let me run the proper connection software! What a bunch of crap. It also confirms why I never want to get involved in Windows servers for work! Could they produce more obscure software if they tried - it is 100% jargon and incredibly confusing wizards - and SBS 2011 is supposed to be the easiest server to set up in recent years.-Carol Haynes (June 08, 2012, 02:51 PM)

Maybe they can add having the same password to their matchmaking criteria.-daddydave (June 08, 2012, 07:35 AM)
however it creates a prompt to declare the excluded drives, is there an option to disable that?-ultimo (June 04, 2012, 08:24 PM)
One further question - if I am running my own DNS server (on Windows SBS2011) where does the DNS database come from? In setting things up I don't seem to have been asked for any reference DNS site? DOes it generate its own list - if so where does it get the translations from (excuse my ignorance if I am being totally dim).-Carol Haynes (June 01, 2012, 10:50 PM)
