Finnish ISP Forced To Block the Pirate Bay 168

Apotekaren writes "The Finnish ISP Elisa has been forced to block several domains leading to the infamous torrent-tracker site The Pirate Bay following a court case initiated by IFPI Finland... The Helsinki District Court ruled in favor of IFPI Finland in October, but the ISP resisted implementing the block until today because of the terms of the block not being specific enough. The ISP is calling the block 'temporary' and is appealing the court decision." Analysis from Torrent Freak shows that the block is probably easily circumvented.

Then its obvious that you do not use KDE. I use KDE and it works perfectly.

Try to run any arbitrary Silverlight or .NET application.

What about Mono?
