9/28    /csua/tmp/aspo/utdemo338.exe
        \_ It has a virus.  Thanks.
           \_ You are a disease.  Meet the cure.
         \_ uhhh, no it doesn't
            \_ Get a new virus scanner.  It has a virus.  Anyway, it's stupid
               to run some random .exe from a random fool's account when the
               original file is available from known sources on the net.
                \_ I did.  It doesn't.  (Not to mention that I dled it from
                   one of the offical dl sites and if it had a virus you
                   would be hearing all over the net about it.)  I put it
                   up cause yesterday it was damn hard to get a copy.  If
                   you don't trust it get another copy somewhere, but that
                   copy is virus free.  -aspo
                   \_ Look it's obviously a troll since the poster insists
                      on calling it "a virus" twice instead of naming it.
                        \_ *LAUGH*  Thank god you're not working in the IT
                           dept at my company.  "He didn't tell us which one
                           so he must be lying.  Go ahead and load it up on
                           the corporate mail server!"  *LAUGH*  God damn, if
                           that isn't the dumbest thing to hit the motd in
                           the last 3 days.
                   \_ It's obvious to *you* it's a virus.  Only an idiot would
                      copy it from your account, instead of a known source on
                      the net, which you're not.  If you're wrong and it does
                      have a virus, who suffers?  I do.  You can't honestly
                      claim it's %100 virus free.  Only that the one or two
                      outdated checkers you're using don't know about it.

3/21    what are these virus phages? Can they be repurposed?
        \_ are you <b>insane?</b> you really want to start messing with
           recombinant <ul>rna</ul> crap when we don't even understand
           the normal virus lifecycle?

5/7     Help, I think something's wrong with my network setting. I'd go to
        a web site, and then it would say "cannot find address". Then I'd
        reload again, occassionally 3 times, to load the page. Is this
        due to DNS being too slow, TTL setting, or something else?
        \_ windows mac or linux ?
           \_ windows (company issued laptop, no alternative)

12/1    Just curious -- what do you guys generally use soda for? Why do you
        log on? Personally, I use it to keep a presence on IRC and AIM/gTalk
        at all times, and mess around with some Python programming (been
        setting up Twisted and such so I can play with making an irc bot).
        --toulouse
        \_ I use it to post SHIT, er, I mean, spill my guts about the company

3/4     Hi, what's the best free anti-virus software for XP?  What about
        anti-spyware?  Currently I'm using Active Virus Shield and Spybot.
        Thanks.
        \_ I've used: avg, spybot s&d, adaware, trend micro's housecall.
           \_ Does Spybot S&D protect Firefox?  It soulds like the injection
              feature only supports IE.
