That is the whole issue with using a power tool like hijackthis. Define "fishy". Besides that, you are too late after the fact. With rootkits nowadays you only find 95% of the evil stuff.

You need some virtualisation/sandboxing/fine grained access list to have an early warning system.

Fixing after the fact is the same as system restore in windows....

Well, most commenters here seldom read the article. So you do not need to read the article to comment.

If you did read the article you would see there still is a point statistically. That 114 seems to be a statistical limit. its like 50 people become 112 , 30 people become 113 and almost none become 114. If one person become 800 years then this would be considered a measure error.

Which makes the sword fighting ridiculous very soon. In real sword fighting you are not aiming for the sword, you are aiming to kill your opponent in a single strike. One not blocked strike and you are out. There is no reason that this should be different in light saber arts.

Maybe they try to prevent damage to their custom weapons...well... it all depends on The Force,,,,

Comment: Parking laws... not driving laws. (Score 1) 551

Over here the situation is that parking is governed by local authorities. However the road laws are country wide (/european).

You cannot restrict some kind of big cars (Hummer etc..) driving on the road in your city. The road is public, so no limit there. However the parking is a different kind. By limiting the number of parking spots, or kind of cars that can effectively park, you can limit the number of cars.

If you live in the center of a big city, and you have no way to park your car, you will not buy a car. If it is very expensive to park a car, you will think twice before buying it there, or buying a second car.

You are right, libraries have free internet and free access. And opening time between 11:00 and 14:00 :(

paper Maps? Yeah, but the the whole point of being online is doing it in 2011 style. paper maps and paper books work fine. But having the 2011 online tools saves you a lot of time.

3g roaming+internet ? This might require a masters degree in comparing subscriptions... in a strange language. Certainly a throw away phone is fine for calling, they even sell them at the airport in a machine, but internet is a different story. I certainly would not provide my credit card...

Actually.. and i experienced this myself, if you are as a tourist in a area where everyone has internet in their home, it might be very hard to go on the internet.

There are no internet cafe's since there is no business model for it. Everyone has it at home.
There might be free wifi, but that requires a laptop. As a tourist i Do not carry a laptop.
Roaming via 3g is VERY expensive, and i only recent have a phone capable of wifi. That is not mainstream yet.

The effect is that the gap between have and havenot internet people only becomes greater. You can expierence it yourself as a tourist, but for some people this migh be the reality every day. If you have problems getting your daily needs (food, shelter), a computer for internet and a isp connection might be too expensive for you.
