Post by: pkd_lives on 29 January 2003, 02:44: Well Calum can't help out more than to say that:

He is of course using a proxy which uses Exodus as the ISP, which is part of Cable and Wireless. The faker is probably located in North Carolina, USA or is nearby to that state. And the e-mail for abuse can be found here (http://ws.arin.net/cgi-bin/whois.pl?queryinput=66.119.34.39).

The proxy appears to be provided by An internet research company (http://www.marketscore.com), who don't like good browsers.

The proxy appears to be proxy.ia2.marketscore.com.

I have no idea if this helps you in anyway. Sometimes the abuse people actually contact you back.

Post by: Kintaro on 29 January 2003, 06:32: here where my honest answers...

Shower, brush your teeth, and shave but ignore speed limits, stop signs and the Geneva convention driving to the office.

Track down the woman and return the purse intact.

Black tie, tails

2+

Creep into the neighboring lane, scaring cautious drivers into giving you a wide berth

Stand up and scream: "He's having an affair with Lumbergh's wife!"

High School

Hearty laughter

Bust out your toolbox, complete with laser-level, chalk-line, square, plumb-bob, and pneumatic brad-nailer, and form a committee on the best approach to fixing it.

"Spends too much time organizing revolts"

Darth Vader

Free champagne!

Bring married friends down to your level by inciting arguments between them and their spouses

Program that does exactly what it should

Yesterday

C++

The classics: Programming in PHP, SQL for Geniuses

Keyboard

If I end up Windows ME someone is going to be hurting.

and i am...

Post by: badpenny on 30 January 2003, 18:50: @ Calum (# 81) Thanks m8, I wish I could take the credit for it, but it was part of a jpeg from a Scottish LUG, all i did was crop it, resize it, clean it up a bit and save it as a Gif to make the background transparent, spent about 1 hour on it.

I tried to be smart, this time being a bit cheeky with the answers, but it told me......

PHP and SQL books hardly qualify as "the classics", do they? I'd pick K&R or something.

I love my Preferences Toolbar 2 in Mozilla. I set it to IE 6.0 WinXP and after that, MarketScore.com worked perfectly in Mozilla... people who make such "unsupported" websites are dreaming back to the age where different platforms couldn't communicate with each other.

I can't figure out how to do that in Mozilla. How do you set Mozilla to identify as something else?

Quite easy. Go here (http://www.xulplanet.com/downloads/prefbar/) and install the Mozilla preferences toolbar. It takes only a couple of seconds. After that, when you restart Mozilla, you'll see the prefs toolbar which, among other cool stuff, lets you spoof your browser id. Have fun! (http://smile.gif)
