Your example of an admin needing to delete an email from 7000 email boxes is largely irrelevant. Gmail is meant for personal users and in the case of me@mysite.com it is for webmasters. Not for corporate email solutions.Any company with its own head office and its own IT support should have its own, private, on site email server.Any company that doesnt have that is way behind the times. It's not difficult for an experienced ICT tech to setup and is a hell of a lot easier to maintain and customize and protect.

Is this an advert or a request for help? Your signature links suggest to me it is an advert...

Pros: ... Um.... Nothing to play with for script kiddies or failed hackers? Cons: Not dynamic, looks and feels like a site from the 50s, hard to maintain, useless for anything more than about 3 pages, hard to edit and add to, hard to organize, boring, dull, no form of interaction (let's face it, how many HTML only sites do you regularly visit? None) In a comparison this is true, however, the time difference will be on the order of MILLISECONDS for a site that does not use a database, and for a site with a medium to small sized DB, like the one the OP would probably use the time delay would be far less than .5 seconds. Regardless of internet speed. This time delay, as you probably know is that of the processing needed to run the PHP code on the server and is NOT affected in any way but internet speed or connection type. I hate HTML only sites.... They just dont work. Even if you only learned a little CSS and a tiny fraction of PHP, or even used a premade PHP script your site's appearance would sky rocket, not to mention that users would return for the interaction. Web 1.0 died long ago, Web 2.0 is here now and we need to embrace it!

There are those that like to think witches are still persecuted, im many places (aside from backwards places like the bible belt) it is something people think is not real, so they either just nod and agree and hope you stop talking, tell you they dont believe in any of that stuff and carry on with their lives or try to learn more as you have done. I dont consider myself a witch, i dont have the experience to do so, i am a pagan and i learn about the theory behind witchcraft but as of yet my experience is limited to basic energy work. Witchcraft is nothing like anything on TV, witches dont often go hunting demons and what not, sure there are those who "specialize" in protection, so things like exorcisms, cleansing properties/spaces, removing negative energies and setting up protection from such nasties. Some people use the terms evil, curse, hex etc... i just call these negative energies, or negative entities or spirits. I do not believe there are any such things as demons or angels, gods or devils. Witchcraft itself is not a religion per say, it is an act that is often encompassed within a religion. So for example, prayer is practiced by Christians, Muslims etc... it is the same act, opening oneself up to a divine power and asking for help or giving thanks. You do not have to pray as a christian (although 99% do) and likewise you do not have to be a devout christian to pray, all that is required is a belief in a higher power. This is particularly true in times of tragedy. So, within paganism (a pagan is anyone that follows a non-mainstream religion, particularly based around nature) you have various religions. Again, paganism isnt a religion, it is a group of beliefs. So we have, for example, druidry and wicca. There are many others, Buddhism to an extent is pagan, Shamans too. Now, to be Wiccan one simply has to abide by the Wiccan rede (which states you cant harm anyone) and believe in at least one male god and one female goddess as well as an afterlife of some sort. Some wiccans believe in more gods and goddesses but you must believe in at least one of each, generally called the lord and lady, otherwise you just arent wiccan, like being christian but thinking jesus never existed... Fools. (PS, i'm not wiccan, but i know more about it than any of the other pagan religions). Notice that witchcraft is not a requirement of Wicca, a wiccan can go their entire life without ever reading a book on the occult however, just like Christians and prayer the vast majority are involve with the craft (witchcraft). A bit of both. Many goths and other stereo-typed groups are interested in witchcraft and paganism because it is different, because it makes them special and they like to rebel. Some of these people are undoubtedly interest for the right reasons, self improvement, a better life, understanding and a connection to nature that no other path in life could ever give (perhaps with the exception of Buddhism). Likewise many trouble people find paganism, i dont know if it is from desperation of their situation or something else but paganism is very accepting of literally anyone. Gay, bisexual, transsexual, goth, chav, jock etc.... tolerance is huge within paganism, more so than all of the other mainstream religions that preach it openly... Studying... Damn there's a lot out there! I can assure you that no-one will ever learn all there is of witchcraft in their lifetime, not even a fraction of it. It also takes a strong person. This sounds somewhat pathetic but belief is a large part of the craft, if you dont believe in yourself how do you expect to influence a world which is so intangible? You have to believe in yourself, and part of that is perseverance and patience. Very very very few people will have complete success the first time they try something, but you need to believe that you can do it, and try again until you are able to consistently achieve a result. I know this sounds wishy-washy but i will elaborate at the end. Another large part is to acknowledge the world around you. See how every week in spring a new tree has leaves, a new colour of blossom is grazing the sky and a new insect or bird is collecting food, building nests, pairing up to breed and then how the chirping of baby birds grows. The path of the sun changing by the month, its path changing all the time. The temperature changing, the way the rain enriches the ground and spurts new growth where before there was nothing. Some witches and pagans choose to celebrate the turning of the Wheel of the year, which has 8 sabbats each representing a new stage of the year as it forever turns, an eternity of change because for a witch change is good, change is always happening and there is no status quo. As for powers... This is a tough one. There are certainly witches that lie. Another forum i am on had a member who had two accounts, and combined with several accounts on other forums she was an elite assassin chasing someone down, pregnant, dying of cancer and various other attention grabbing situations. Another member claims that humans can transform into vampires, fly around and turn other people. It is ludicrous. Some of the powers i firmly believe in are: Foresight (using divination tools such as tarot or runes), faint kenesis, including pyrokenesis and very, very, very faint telekenesis. Empathy (the feeling or sensing of other people's emotions despite distance, particularly for those you love), use of energy and by that i mean we are surrounded by an energy which i believe exists on another dimension, namely the 5th dimension which many physicists will agree does indeed exist, and which can be influenced by desire of the human mind and or soul/spirit. Many people call this psychic energy and is particularly useful for healing, protection and psychic attack. This post is very long so let me finish by stating a few things... Im not a lunatic, at least i dont consider myself so. i consider myself intelligent and grounded. I am no genius but i am very scientific and spend a lot of time reading physics articles on wikipedia and newscientist.com so im no redneck either! As my scientific understanding goes there is no evidence to suggest anything i have said is 100% false, on the contrary there is some evidence to say it is indeed real. The intention experiment is a great example of a scientific test that backs up the theories of the craft. According to quantum physics everything i said is possible. Due to a combination of entanglement theory, the many worlds hypothesis, quantum uncertainty you are left with only a small gap in a complete theory of how magick works. The K denotes that i mean witchcraft and not stage illusion. Usually its not needed but it helps sometimes. Keep asking questions

Too true, id rather risk getting my windows machine bricked than getting a keylogger which then steals my millions from the bank, deletes my personal stuff, hijacks my email and then spreads itself!Of course if you are running linux/mac this all doesnt apply, but if youre running windows then i can assure you that a dodgy AV update is the least of your worries!I run XP SP3 but im not stupid enough to install Mcafee! XD

Old thread is old. But i digress.Find me a mainstream religion that isnt evil and i will graciously back down and admit defeat. Fail to do so and it isnt just Islam that preaches subjugation, prejudice, hypocrisy or any number of other negative teachings.On a side note the BNP really arent a party you want to vote for in this election.Think nazis, and now look at Griffins face. Uhhhu. Homophobes, racists and they think men are better than women. Yay... Not. And im not one of the do-gooders, no no. Immigration needs to virtually end. Foreign criminals should either be deported, or if they claim it is too dangerous they should be driven by boat to the middle of the atlantic and then have their boat engine shot out. They can then setup their own country far far away from me. PS: Mandla, Islam is truly a religion of hatred. Only christianity eclipses it in terms of bloodshed and idiocy. Consider why else Muslim women cant show their head? Yup, Islam hates women (and gays, and pretty much anyone who isnt a muslim).

That code doesnt work, it listens for a mouse event that equals "2" which is indeed right click, however, left click is "1" so pressing both buttons at once = "3" and since 3 != 2 the script ignores it and i get right click. You just cant protect these images other than watermarking. Screen shots will always get them. The only way to block that is to detect the print screen keypress and instantly change the picture to the most horrific thing you can find on google for a split second so they get some horrible image, but the likelihood of this working is about 1% assuming it is even possible.

I disagree, being open source it is more likely the good guys see the holes first and patch them up. Security by obscurity just leads to brute forcing a copy of the system until it breaks apart and then you search through its guts and find it all out anyway! Last time i checked Safari was blocked by paypal because it didnt use strong enough encryption. Basically, apple make flashy thing to entice idiots and then say it is the user's fault when their half cocked software deletes itself of their second rate batteries blow people's hands off.

Ok, "teh" is getting annoying now, there is a time and a place, and the place isnt T17.On topic, there is no need to reduce the categories. It means that we then need to have a whole "Other Stuff" category for all the deleted categories to go into (eg the health forum cant be discussed in technology because it is off topic, so it needs an "other stuff" place for health stuff, business stuff etc... to go).Then we end up with this huge other stuff forum which is full of crap that no-one reads anyway.. so *shrug* leave it as it is.

Interesting, what's the release date for the full system? I have two machines at home, one is a gaming PC with win7 and the other is my trusty laptop with XP and Ubunutu Karmic so i am hesitant to go into a beta at the moment but ill definitely update when the full release is out.

How will this offer you better data security? And why do i get the feeling you are here to advertise the keylogger and arent really a user of it?

Firstly, drop the "2" its irritating, write "to" otherwise you will find no help here.Unplug the power cable and remove the battery. Leave it for 15 minutes. Replace just the power lead, and try to power it on.If that doesnt work take the lead (and battery) out, flip it upside down and remove the RAM modules. You will see a few panels on the back with screws, 1-3 of the screws will be labelled with something that looks like a smal;l rectangle with a few lines in it. These are the RAM cover screws. Take them out and keep them safely to one side. Under that cover you should see one or two rectangular sticks, probably green circuit boards. If not screw the cover back on and try another panel.Once located you will see two silver metal clips at either short edge of the RAM module. Pull these two clips *gently* away from the ram module at their loose ends. the module should spring upwards at an angle. Carefully remove it and rest it on a non metallic clean surface. Do the same for any other RAM modules you see. There should be no cables or other connectors on the modules. IF you see a board like i described with two small cables this is wireless internet module and should be ignored. Once removed flip the laptop over, plug in the power cord and try turning it on. If nothing happens you will need to either send it for repair or open it up. Opening it up could easily get really ugly. I wouldnt suggest it. But if you have a spare and arent too worried then remove the hard drive (if you can open a laptop then i dont need to tell you how to do that) and open it up. Check all connections.It could either be a loose connection with the power source or distributor or a BIOS on the blink. Neither option is solvable by you or anyone but a qualified technician im afraid.

Just to clear this up... Where does the internet actually come from? You say the ethernet adapter but where deoes that connect?Do you have a router which connects to the internet via a phone line, then the laptop connects to the internet via ethernet?And then you want to make your laptopinto a wireless router so that your phone connects to the laptop and gets internet access right? If so then you will need to google "win7 internet sharing" and "win7 wireless adhoc mode" Basically you need to setup windows to enable wireless ad-hoc mode (which simply means computer to computer rather than computer to router) and then enable internet sharing. I dont use win7 but it should be relatively easy if you search those two terms.

Going to have to pull you up on some of those im afraid!! True but its spelt "googol" False. The skin actually shrinks as it dries out thus giving the illusion of growth as it shrinks away from the nail and hair growth. In the uk at least this is an urban myth. America and other countries may be different though. QI is an interesting (UK) program... :angel:

You most likely have Network Address Translation set incorrectly in your router.The problem is your router has two sides to it, one is on the insider and is probably 192.168.1.1 or similar, and the other in the internet which will have a completely different IP. no-ip is seeing your ROUTERS IP address (the internet one) and thus your domain just goes straight to the router. What you need to do is tell your router to show your computers ip address instead. I Cant help much as im not sure how to go about that, but you probably need to disable NAT on your router or setup some sort of port forwarding so all requests on port 80 go straight through the router to your PC/server

I can easily understand looking out for number one, i think everyone should look out for themselves first. If you had $1 and were starving and had only enough money for one meal i think you should buy that meal for yourself, rather than for someone else (the exception here is for child etc... but assuming you both have the same situation and same needs) as that money is yours, whether you found it or earned it, YOU did that so YOU should make use of it.That doesnt mean however that if you have the means to help (eg you can buy two meals and only need one) that you should squander it or hide it. You should of course aim to help as many as you can, but in my eyes I come first in a survival situation (again, assuming we are on equal footing and situation).But aside from that i dont think there is anything within satanism that i can bring into myself to improve myself.

Sky.... Just no...Why would I care what the the imaginary devil likes to be called?! I'll call him pinkfairy for all i care!(plus, aside from the fact it is made up either by you or someone else, what makes you think this?)Interesting to see the links those people have with satanism... As outsiders we can only go on what is publicised and from what i have seen it isnt a bad "group" for lack of a better word, but it seems hollow, it doesnt seem like a belief system at all. At the end of the day if im in a pissed off mood i do most of that anyway, that doesnt make it a religion or system, its just how irritated or self motivated people act!

Aye, i dont see what satanism can offer to be honest... it doesnt seem to be a religion but more of a way of living that most bastards follow anyway. Though its 9 statements arent evil or wrong they dont seem to be much of a foundation either.Im interested to know more about these hidden agendas though

Please dont copy and paste without using the QUOTE tags. Thanks! RE: Satanism, it isnt actually the worship of Satan or any other god or devil. Satanism under the church of satan (COS) has nothing at all to do with christians, jews, muslims, satan, god, demons etc.... And only some satanists believe in the ideas of spirits etc... Satanism as a name was chosen to get publicity and not because it represents the beliefs of satanists. I am afraid to say that there are many narrow minded people here, and no doubt we are both about to be met with an onslaught of "youre going to hell" *shrugs* so be it... Here are the Satanic "commandments" from the COS website: See how they use the term "satan" to represent things that society generally frowns upon, such as sex for pleasure and outside of marriage, loving and caring for only those who do so back and not wasting your energy and time on fools who do not appreciate or acknowledge it, vengeance instead of turning the other cheek, EG as i have read elsewhere before: "If you are walking in the park and a man bothers you, ask him to stop. If he does not, destroy him." (roughly anyway) So satanism isnt inherently evil, it is however selfish as it stands for putting yourself above others, which morally is not "good" however from a happiness/survival point of view it is right. There may however be other branches of "satanism" that detach themselves from the COS.

Ah so it is!Power to the people It will be back though... Im sure....

Hold press, theres more:Deuteronomy 22: 13-21Basically states that if you were to take a wife, and she tells you she is a virgin, but then you think she isnt a virgin and you cant find any proof that she was when you married her she should be stoned to death in front of her fathers door.Nice one.Why not check if the man is a virgin too? Oh yes... Because men are better than women... Doi! *slaps head* im so silly...Again.. The bible preaches hate and inequality. Nice.(and i am aure someone will bring up some rubbish about the fact it doesnt say that but it does. Ive just read the passage in two different forms. If the man decides he doesnt like his wife, and she cant prove she was a virgin when they married then she should be slowly tortured to death via stoning. Real smooth, and yet if the man is wrong he gets a small fine. Real equal there.Basically the woman gets stoned to a painful death for lying about her virginity, but if the man lies about his wife he gets a fine.

I see.... Well, its a well known fact that many mainstream religions such as christianity, judaism and islam dislike women and put them down constantly. Chrstianity isnt alone here. Why would women not be allowed to speak in church? *why*? Why is it a woman that caused original sin? Why is it that the women in the bible (from my admittedly limited knowledge of it) are minor parts, often badly represented? Why is it that the pope MUST be a man? The one time a woman did get in there was uproar. Why is it that women cannot be bishops etc... and when it does happen everyone goes mental about it? And why is god a male? Surely if he was all powerful and what not he would have no gender for to have gender is really to suggest that he plays a part in sexual reproduction or is the child of said reproduction. Now, the davinci code.... Simply because the church does not like it does not make it false. Likewise just because i like it does not make it truth. I cant be bothered to search google (guess im going to hell on the account of sloth as well now...) i will let that one rest. Also partly because i suspect i wont find any concrete evidence for my claims. Exactly!! So why follow its word to the letter. I know you have the sense to research much of what is said in the bible, however, many other christians, including some in the two threads we have going at the moment, regard its word as law as though it was written by their god, this is foolishness as you yourself just stated, the bible is written by man and the dominant culture at the time. it is NOT a representation of the christian god and probably has no basis is truth either. But fools continue to adhere to its every word without questioning, without thinking. Why?! Fear! (any religion where you need to fear your god is just ridiculous anyway) I am unaware of the biblical definition of which you speak, however my point was to show that if the christian god is real he would probably be most displeased with the hate that christianity spreads and contains and which its followers preach (not all, but most).

I agree with anwii, i can be patient, but if no-one posted and let you guys know how rubbish it is then Opaque would just leave it up!

i usually refrain from name calling but i cant deal with these irrational arguments!RE the sun and earth my understanding is that without the sun there would not be the gravity to coalesce the matter that makes the earth. And even if god somehow made the earth without the process of gravity then the earth would have nothing to revolve around, nonetheless, these are questions without answers.I am all for free speech and letting people believe what they want. HOWEVER, when faith is thrust upon me with the threat of eternal torture if i do not comply then i get angry. And when irrational arguments like "dinosaurs and humans lived together" i just cant deal with it! It drives me mad!Stupidity is my enemy, as is oppression.

Im glad you agree with us.The blinking is extremely annoying, i dont even know why anyone would ever design it like that. whoever done that is a complete idiot!I too understand the need for adverts but that is definitely not the way to do it... The only two things they couldve done worse are popups and in-line text links inserted automatically into post content... Then i think i would actually cancel my account...
