Snaller's Journal: Why aren't there any usefull hackers?

If an Internet explorer gets tired of all the plugins which would like to install themselves, he can go to security and specify that ActiveX plugins should not be installed.

Guess what happens then? When you come across a page where there is such a plugin, Internet Explorer opens a message box which says:

"Your current security settings prohibit running activex controls on this page.
As a result, the page many not display correctly."

And then an OK button.

So if you don't want Flash installed, you'll get this damn message box on every damn page.

Now it could either be that Microsoft are a bunch of incompetent wankers (which seems likely) or they are just a bunch of amoral twats who wants to force this shit on us (which also seems likely).

So i ask myself, instead of hackers wasting time cracking the latest release of "Little Bo peep and her sheep on vacation", why don't someone make a truly usefull hack and get rid of this annoying behaviour?

(Caveats to spammers: I know you can use proxies, other browsere etc - don't bother)
