  Re: MSIE5 security hole
 
(...) Yeahwell, Netscape has acted like a clogged toilet too, some times. But at least they've always worked hard to clear it out rather than stop it up more. :) (...) Hmm, sounds interesting. www.opera.com? I'll give it a try for a few days... (...) (25 years ago, 2-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.publish)
 
  Re: MSIE5 security hole
 
(...) Man, I hate their user inteface. Very clumsy, ugly, and Windows 3.0-era. (MDI? Ugh.) Have you looked at any of the recent Mozilla devel milestones? It's obviously still pre-alpha, but coming along really nicely. (25 years ago, 2-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.publish)
 
  Re: MSIE5 security hole
 
No offence but that is the biggest crock of you know what. Ok, you can probably figure out who I work for, but since I work directly with these security issues, you can be sure that Netscape has many. -- Asher (...) (25 years ago, 2-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.publish)

  Re: MSIE5 security hole
 
(...) Luckily we have Netscape Communicator to use instead - a program with absolutely no bugs or security issues of its own. I personally prefer Opera over them both, to be honest. It's just not full-featured yet. (25 years ago, 2-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.publish)

Caution, MySQL isn't transaction safe. It doesn't even SUPPORT transactions. Cool stuff otherwise, though. So don't spin up multiple copies of your server, or you'll be sorry.

  DVD Tracker
 
Posting this to .geek because even though it is kinda funny I think only geeks would really do something like this. I just did it, of course. Here's a link to the DVDs I own. The list is partial right now because about half of mine are on loan to a (...) (25 years ago, 1-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Problem with my pictures
 
I think the problem is solved, and I am going to work on fixing all the images. If anyone looks at them later (about an hour), and they are still not working, please let me know. Thanks, Sean (25 years ago, 28-Aug-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Problem with my pictures
 
(...) If anyone tries these pictures, can you please try the 1 x 2 hinge. I changed it, so if it works, then maybe the problem is solved. Thanks, Sean (25 years ago, 28-Aug-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  "recommended selections" and languages
 
I just got my weekly "you might like..." post from mp3.com, which is usually entertaining. Unfortunately they seem to have decided that my preferred language is Japanese, and my preferred music style is 60s ballad. The language is annoying but (...)

  Problem with my pictures
 
Hi guys! Someone sent me here to see if anyone could help me with a problem I am having with my pictures on my eBay auctions. The problem is that I can see them just fine, but three people have told me they can not see them at all. I don't know what (...) (25 years ago, 28-Aug-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Cyrillic
 
this incoming email from elsewhence was munged by a free email account, do you think that would shift them back? And what would you suggest a good value for x-charset to be? Thanks.
