re: The relative ease of tasks under ______ Thursday, December 10, 2009 at 3:38 pm Windows 98 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by sekirt (297 messages posted) quote: "You missed the part where I said whitelist" No, didn't miss it. Wouldn't use FF, so didn't seem to apply. I don't have any real problems with IE and I like it. Tried FF and just didn't like it. Again, security has never been a major issue for me. Still not. It was only one stray infection. I don't do host files, whitelists or blacklists. Maybe sometime in the future I might change my mind? But maybe by then if I have to go to a lot of bother, I'd even switch to Linux? Once computing becomes even more effort than what it is, I may just shut it off and do something else. As to that lyrics site, I got the lyrics but I couldn't tell you the name of the site to save my life. I'd be happy to warn everyone about the site but have no idea which site it was. Went there. Got lyrics and probably won't ever see that site again. sekirt On Thursday, December 10, 2009 at 10:27 am, gewg_ wrote: >sekirt wrote: >|A "NoScript extension" would be against my very nature though. >|That is one thing I want my browser to do, handle scripts. > >You missed the part where I said whitelist. >Again, the Open Source offering is FAR superior to the M$-supplied "equivalent" >--even after applying 3rd-party tweaks to Redmond's junk. > Written in response to: re: The relative ease of tasks under ______ (gewg_: Thursday, December 10, 2009 at 10:27 am) Responses to this message: re: The relative ease of tasks under ______ (gewg_: Thursday, December 10, 2009 at 5:31 pm) All messages in this thread [show all] Another serious blow delivered to the validity of EULAs (gewg_: Wed, Oct 7, 2009, 2:54 pm) re: Another serious blow delivered to the validity of EULAs (Steve: Wed, Oct 7, 2009, 6:42 pm) re: Another serious blow delivered to the validity of EULAs (gewg_: Wed, Oct 7, 2009, 10:20 pm) re: Another serious blow delivered to the validity of EULAs (Steve: Thu, Oct 8, 2009, 6:58 am) re: Another serious blow delivered to the validity of EULAs (gewg_: Thu, Oct 8, 2009, 11:15 am) re: Another serious blow delivered to the validity of EULAs (Steve: Thu, Oct 8, 2009, 11:47 am) re: Another serious blow delivered to the validity of EULAs (gewg_: Thu, Oct 8, 2009, 1:57 pm) re: Another serious blow delivered to the validity of EULAs (sekirt: Sat, Oct 17, 2009, 5:37 am) re: Another serious blow delivered to the validity of EULAs (gewg_: Sat, Oct 17, 2009, 2:05 pm) re: Another serious blow delivered to the validity of EULAs (sekirt: Sun, Oct 18, 2009, 11:20 pm) re: Another serious blow delivered to the validity of EULAs (gewg_: Mon, Oct 19, 2009, 12:02 pm) The single biggest problem on the 'Net (was:...EULAs) (gewg_: Tue, Oct 27, 2009, 7:28 pm) INFECTIONS: The old wives' tale put to bed (gewg_: Wed, Nov 11, 2009, 2:03 pm) re: INFECTIONS: The old wives' tale put to bed (sekirt: Wed, Nov 11, 2009, 2:37 pm) re: INFECTIONS: The old wives' tale put to bed (gewg_: Wed, Nov 11, 2009, 6:24 pm) re: INFECTIONS: The old wives' tale put to bed (sekirt: Wed, Nov 11, 2009, 7:46 pm) re: INFECTIONS: The old wives' tale put to bed (gewg_: Wed, Nov 11, 2009, 10:53 pm) re: INFECTIONS: The old wives' tale put to bed (sekirt: Wed, Nov 11, 2009, 11:20 pm) re: INFECTIONS: The old wives' tale put to bed (gewg_: Sun, Nov 22, 2009, 8:25 pm) re: INFECTIONS: The old wives' tale put to bed (sekirt: Sun, Nov 22, 2009, 9:02 pm) "Ridiculous" (gewg_: Wed, Dec 9, 2009, 12:31 pm) re: "Ridiculous" (sekirt: Wed, Dec 9, 2009, 7:00 pm) re: "Ridiculous" (gewg_: Wed, Dec 9, 2009, 8:54 pm) re: "Ridiculous" (sekirt: Wed, Dec 9, 2009, 11:50 pm) The relative ease of tasks under ______ (gewg_: Thu, Dec 10, 2009, 9:13 am) re: The relative ease of tasks under ______ (sekirt: Thu, Dec 10, 2009, 9:30 am) re: The relative ease of tasks under ______ (gewg_: Thu, Dec 10, 2009, 10:27 am) re: The relative ease of tasks under ______ (sekirt: Thu, Dec 10, 2009, 3:38 pm) re: The relative ease of tasks under ______ (gewg_: Thu, Dec 10, 2009, 5:31 pm) re: The relative ease of tasks under ______ (sekirt: Thu, Dec 10, 2009, 10:04 pm) re: The relative ease of tasks under ______ (sekirt: Sun, Dec 13, 2009, 3:52 pm) Browsers (More thread drift) (gewg_: Sun, Dec 13, 2009, 7:33 pm) The "only has security via obscurity" thing debunked once again (gewg_: Fri, Jan 21, 2011, 3:58 pm) re: The "only has security via obscurity" thing debunked once again (sekirt: Fri, Jan 21, 2011, 8:06 pm) Reply or follow-up to this message Search this forum Start a new thread on a different subject Report abuse of the forum Return to the Windows 98 Discussion Forum
