I was recently looking for information on job postings on several sites. When I visited one particular company's career site using Firefox, I was told that I needed to download IE in order to view current jobs available.
Since when does someone have to be a Microsoft customer to apply for a job?

Deborah Jeane Palfrey, the alleged madam of the infamous Pamela Martin associates has posted online all the phone records of her clientele. According to her statement the records had been shared with the press on confidentiality but due to an unexplained lack of encryption began to circulate publicly. As a result, they decided to assure that no maliciously salted versions were in circulation, both to prevent possible harm to the people involved and to protect the integrity of the databases reputation. So it's released for anyone to have. Now the fun begins as cyber sleuths try to find the hidden gems lurking in the chaff. Apparently the news reporters did not find much in their initial mining; understandably because the records go back ten years, people use aliases, and phone numbers change.

Firefox 3.0's first beta has been delayed at least six weeks, Mozilla engineers said Sunday, and it now won't appear until the middle of September.
In a posting to the mozilla.dev.planning group Sunday, Mike Schroepfer, Mozilla's vice president of engineering, suggested a revamped milestone schedule for Firefox 3.0, the next major update to the popular open-source browser. Among the changes: a postponement of the first beta, slated as recently as last week to debut July 31. It's not expected until Sept. 18 at the earliest.
In addition, several features intended for the Firefox 3.0 final have yet to make it into the code, including an anti-malware tool and the polished application programming interfaces needed to support offline Web software.
