wow.

 

 

from testing, i see that newscientist.com which requires

a login to view full articles no longer requires shit.

 

surfing through google translator also results in googles own ip

being detected by sites. looks exactly like a google bot to the site.

 

perfect. this could be a very handy tool.

 

more experimentation is required to see the full benefits of doing such a thing.

 

 

it didnt work for me???????????????

 

 

newscientist.com

I did a massive scan on my comp last night as I went to bed, using all the crazy stuff on my computer. I have mainly just been letting avast run, and windows defender scan daily.

But AVG spyware found some 'backdoor' thing which I have deleted, but what the hell was it?

 

It doesn't have to do with the Alexa toolbar does it?

 

BTW, a-squared, spybot nor avast picked this up.

backdoor is a trojan. could be a false reading.

Yo, my computer is dead and they motherfuckers at the shop are gonna give me a new one...

 

Was looking at this in store today:

 

HP Pavilion dv2535ea

 

( http://www.amazon.co.uk/Pavilion-Processor-Widescreen-Bluetooth-networking/dp/B000TNWDVC/ref=sr_1_1/203-3531844-5141549?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1189784841&sr=1-1 )

 

 

 

but I couldnt really find a proper review of it online, any thoughts?

 

 

ps. i like the fact it has bluetooth, camera is fun, not sure what to think about finger print scanner. Harddrive is big enough for my needs. RAM and shit looks good but i dont really know about stuff that technical. ill prob only use it for word processing, photoshop and shit, music, dvds etc and occasional bit of gaming. and maybe other programs such as CAD etc

well it looks alright

 

whats the exchange rate on that to US isnt like $1500?

 

the finger print scanner is stupid so easily hacked now its useless and it wears out way to fast and it will not be able to read yer finger print anyway and you will end up locking yerself out

 

( you do not need to use the fingerprint scanner so its not really an issue)

 

 

its gonna be rough with photoshop and autocad them take alot of processing power and are best used on a desktop or an imac, and no hardcore gaming but you will be able to play most recent games without a problem

Cheers thats all i really wanted to know

not sure about the exchange rate but Im not gonna be paying anything for it as my last one is still under warranty so money isnt much of an issue.

 

Yeah i figured as much about the fingerprint scanner, still looks like fun.

 

I wouldnt be doing any hardcore gaming on it anyway but maybe the odd game. ill stick to the wii...

 

AutoCad isn't really necessary cos I got access to other computers that can run it, and basic photoshop functions will run on the laptop which is mostly what ill be doing.

Plus ill be making good use of the remote control when it comes to music.

Its got a few random added bonuses. like built in camera etc. Looks like a wannabe macbook. which is cool with me. and it will be interesting to try out vista.

 

anyway PEACE
