I'm a savant, you insensitive clod!

Usually malware like viruses or trojans need to be "autorun" upon every reboot. Hence, it might be a good idea to look through the various processes being started up automatically by Windows.

You may use the tool Autoruns / Autorunsc for this purpose. If you're running Autorunsc.exe (command line version) with the -a, remember to run it with the the -v (verify digital signatures) and -w (hide Microsoft entries) flags. That will keep your screen simpler.

With all the interference at 2.4GHz or possibly even 5GHz, a better solution would be to rely on light waves.

Ok seriously, go with 802.11a or 802.11n operating in the at 5.0GHz frequency band.

Some keygens query Windows for certain unique system identifiers (e.g. MAC address, C: Volume Serial Number) which are used to generate the key. Hence, the key generated by the keygen that ran the VM or Sandbox would only be valid for the application installed in that operating environment.

Do you know the actual usage rate? Red Flag Linux isn't gaining that much users as claimed.

Instead of using nc and pv to test the network throughput between a server and a client, try iperf.

Instead of FreeNAS, I've tried . I managed to configure an iSCSI target with DRBD as the datastore for my VMware ESX 3.5 server.

OpenFiler is neat and easy to use. Check it out too.

As much as I like uTorrent, I don't really think it can be considered as "FTW" because it doesn't support UDP trackers.

The use of UDP trackers is a great way to relieve the load on popular tracker servers, because they are bogged down by the large number of stateful TCP connections. Btw, The Pirate Bay supports UDP tracking.
