Media Pirate

Media Piracy and Law Enforcement By Josh Stone. Once upon a time, music played for free on the radio. And you could record a cassette if you wanted to, and you could listen to it as many times as you wanted to, and nobody thought you were a pirate if you shared it with your friends. In fact, this was seen as a way for new bands to break into the market; quite frequently receiving a mix tape would be motivation to buy the album of the band whose song was included.

What little concern there was over music piracy was restricted to "bootleg" tapes made at concerts. Even one of the most outspokenly liberal musicians ever, Frank Zappa, vented in vain at bootleg tapes of his music. He went so far as to include the tape of an interview expressing his anger with this practice at the beginning of his "As An Am" album, part of his "Beat the Boots" project. But even at its most vampiric, the bootleg recording industry was hardly able to suck off more than a single-digit percentage of profits.

Intelligent Explorer?
Beware of MS Internet Explorer Plug-Ins By alojate. Recently, I upgraded my copy of Internet Explorer. No big deal, right? Well, I thought it was an upgrade. In actuality it turned out to be a product masking as an upgrade called Intelligent Explorer and when it downloaded to my machine, it started a nighmarish journey that taught me a wealth about what one wrong click can unleash on your computer.

I did some quick research via Google and found messages screaming for help in the BullGuard and Spywareinfo forum from people trying to get it off their machine.

In this article, I am going to use Internet Explorer to point out the Internet Explorer plugin nightmare and what you'll need to do to protect yourself.

Intelligent Explorer is a toolbar that moves in and takes over your browser. It is extremely hard to get rid of, and beyond that, it's just plain annoying. Here's is just one sample of a person calling for help:

Girlfriend 5.0 to Wife 1.0 PDF Print E-mail

Dear Tech Support Team:

Last year I upgraded from Girlfriend 5.0 to Wife 1.0. I soon noticed that the new program began unexpected child-processes that took up a lot of space and valuable resources.

In addition, Wife 1.0 installed itself into all other programs and now monitors all other system activities. Applications such as BachelorNights 10.3, Cricket 5.0, BeerWithBuddies 7.5, and Outings 3.6 no longer runs, crashing the system whenever selected. I can't seem to keep Wife 1.0 in the background while attempting to run my favorite applications. I'm thinking about going back to Girlfriend 5.0 , but the 'uninstall' doesn't work on Wife 1.0.

Please help!

Thanks,

"A Troubled User"

Computer Viruses?
Computer Viruses?
Do The Media Spread Computer Viruses? by sunil1477. Could the mass media hype about computer viruses actually make the problem worse?

If you believe what you hear in the media, there are an awful lot of viruses going around. No, I'm not talking about the make-you-sick kind of virus, though they get plenty of airtime, too. I'm talking about the kind of virus that enters via your internet connection rather than your nasal passages.

What the mainstream media often don't tell you--at least, in most radio and television newscasts and in the crucial headlines and opening paragraphs of newspaper articles-- is that many of these "viruses" are not viruses at all.
