what about drive by downloads where the client simply has to visit a malicious web site to be compromised ? you know that the client doesnt have to do anything to give up his data to a malicious website so why are you denying it ?
You know this for a fact? Can you name such a site?

If your system is so insecure that this can happen then you should unplug
your system from the internet. It's unsafe.

os x and linux.
you guys are seriously trying to tell me yhou have never heard of
these kind of attacks ?
i suggest you visit some security websites to see how prevalent they
are and how easy they seem to be to execute.

Prove it by posting a link to such a site, and I'll go there myself

The only way that can happen is in scenario 3.) above when using IE.
And then only when someone have manually turned off the default security

Of course I have, but those is only harmful to those that have opened
up the default security settings of their browsers... javaScript alone
can't do any harm to my computer. And neither can Applets or ActiveX
controls without me giving them explicit permission to do so.
This thread started with you claiming that an "enemy's" web-site
managed to access your computer

this happened a while ago and the site is long gone,
you must know that these sites only stay online for a few days before
they are pulled down,
i am interested to know how he got hold of my files.
he pointed me to some of his websites and i went and had a look, i
clicked a few links and hey presto my hard drive starts churning,
by the time i realised what had happened he had nicked my files. i
know this because he got my telephone numebr and email and home
address from my resume which was on my desktop . i certainly never
sent it to him,.
this has happened to me since and i have wiped windows off my
remaining PC and installed linux.
i got rid of my ibm thinkpad and got myself a powerbook.
i am now rid of the virus called windows.,
We both know this happens all the time on windows so why are you
denying it ? This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |

I do not know PHP, consider to write a CGI with this technology and
have the following question.
Is it possible to invoke a PHP script and let it endlessly wait for
requests from a website (a Java applet in my case) and serve the
requests when they arrive? I want to avoid loading the script for each
request.
In other words, can it function, in this sense, like a Java servlet?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
