Alternate Poster & CD-R is $10 if you want to support this but don't want the David Lynch book.

You can do all of that and more in Opera:

You remember the European Commission's antitrust case against Microsoft in 2004?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Union_v._Microsoft
All Opera did was point out that Microsoft's inclusion of Internet Explorer with Windows-based personal computers is a violation of the same laws that caused Microsoft to fail in that 2004 case, or to put it another way if Windows+Bundled MediaPlayer is a violation then Windows+Bundled Browser must also be a violation. Not a massive jump in logic, particularly when the US Department of Justice had previously come to the exact same conclusion (Windows+Bundled Browser is bad for inovation and compitition). I refer you to:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_v._Microsoft
Both of the above cases where initiated by US interests, so this is not really about some big conspiracy by the EU to protect its own. Also as others in this thread have pointed out to you, Norway is not even part of the EU.
Regarding Mozilla/Firefox. Saying a massive project like this is American is like saying Linux is Finnish. The roots may be from one country but any sufficiently large Open Source project is probably global. Also Mozilla have given out some pretty mixed statements recently regarding this case but on the topic of if bundling has harmed competition they seem to be in full agreement with Opera. Consider the following:
http://blog.lizardwrangler.com/2009/02/06/the-european-commission-and-microsoft/
I suspect the slightly contradictory comments coming out of Mozilla are because they see how certain groups of people (such as yourself) have misunderstood Opera and rounded on them and the Mozilla PR team wants to avoid the same fate.
Journal Journal: You have been... Goatsed?
About 2,500 people have had a (very) nasty surprise recently when they looked at their MySpace page. Let's just say a small image was replaced by... another small image. Only, the second one was from the infamous "Goatse.cx" (You remember THAT one, don't you?). But what exactly happened? Jason Scott, the owner of textfiles.com explains all -- or is it confesses all?. The email received are hilarious. Well worth a read and a chuckle

Submission + - BitThief BT Client Downloads Without Uploading
Smaran writes: "BitThief is a BitTorrent client developed in Zurich, Switzerland that manages to download torrents without uploading at all. It constantly pretends to be a newly arrived peer that doesn't have any bits to upload. It also doesn't prioritise bits and takes whatever it can get. Torrentfreak writes that such a client could be extremely harmful to BitTorrent swarms and hopes that it will be quickly banned from trackers. Since it's written in Java, it can be launched on any platform."

Submission + - Cedega users permanently banned from WoW
Turmoyl writes: Many Cedega users were banned from the World of Warcraft(tm) game today. They received "Notice of Account Closure" emails from WoW's Account Administration team, citing Use of "Third Party Automation Software".
The Linux users were apparently caught up in a game-wide anti-bot sweep. Early speculation is that Blizzard's use of the "Warden" anti-cheat application may have spawned some odd results when run via Cedega.
Emails to the Account Administration team have gone unanswered so far.

Submission + - How should American elections be conducted?
An anonymous reader writes: Throughout all of the voting controversies, I've always asked myself, wouldn't it be better to just have a simple paper ballot that you check next to your candidate and then drop into a box, and then have it hand counted? Sure, counting votes would take a little longer, but wouldn't this guarantee of accurate records outweigh the costs? There aren't many cases when I say that technology should have no part in something, but this is definitely one of them. What else do you think should be done to make sure every vote is counted?
Submission + - AOL Opens Buddylist
An anonymous reader writes: AOL announced earlier this week their Web AIM API, which seems pretty boring at first look. It is similiar to Meebo since you can embed it, however unlike Meebo and others, it appears they are allowing the web page developer to actually access the end users buddy list. Surf my web page, I can access (steal) your buddy list. Seems to have mashup potential, hopefully it is secure.
