(*)=insert random European country and language here.
Far from it for me to be the one to ridicule anybody, anywhere on spelling. Be it in public, in class, or on an International forum. The word you used has dual meaning. You used it to the pretext of an accolade, I used it as the name of a snack bar.

On our little discussion-topic; I mentioned before that it irks me to see people who glorify the army, the service to their country and the likes. Just two days ago I was watching this program on Discovery Channel about the top-10 of 'Most Powerful War Machines / Weapons". They even bothered to illustrate the destructive force of one of the Apache's missiles (costing over 40,000 USD a piece). Don't take me wrong, though, I don't bear any grudge to you personally. It's just because you are Ironworks shining star when it comes to this matter that I turned to you.
Sadly, a 40K missile can hit and destroy the wrong target. Where as a $1.99 RPG, may hit and destroy the correct target!

The fact of the matter is (in my opinion, anyway) that your posts seem to contain a black and white vision most of the times, never settling (quite enough) for the large grey area in between. Frankly speaking, I'm beginning to think you don't believe in compromises.
You are SPOT ON. I will allow, my last 10 evaluations all stated, from 10 different supervisors, almost the same thing. He has an uncompromising can do attitude!
That is me, unless I'm jesting somebody, I mean what I say, and say what I mean. Take it, or leave it, that's it! That's probably why I hate Liberal politicans the most, because they cannot for the life of them, say the truth!

Thought you'd like to know.
Well thanks!
Again, if you took it wrong, my apoloigies, for I would never accuse anybody for incorrectly spelling a word or phrase on this forum.


FYI:
Now, Zebo and I have a certain understanding, and if the roles were to be reversed, I would expect no less of an outcome.

Sadly as his last post states, e-commerce has become more the problem of late, than an actual direct attack from a spammer.

I too have noticed a lot of traffic on my rig before prior to it being initiated. I did a scan from within my firewall (corporate) to see who was doing what.

Under my new configuration, I installed XP (digital darkroom) and that was it. I re-registered through the phone, and did not install the XP chipset driver, therby XP cannot connect to the internet. (Darn, that sounds like an uncompromising statement).

I run multi boot XP, Linux Kbuntu & Ubuntu (Debian based), and that is where my internet connection is. Amazingly there is no traffic until it is initiated!



Zebo, what else might there be to do?
