...always the website's doing. Sometimes it's an advertiser that delivers spyware through banner ads or pop-ups, and you'd only get infected if you take that bait. Sometimes hackers embed spyware traps in a website's code. But it's also not uncommon for spyware to ride into your machine on the back of something you actually wanted, nor is it uncommon for the offending programs to be mentioned by name in the end-user license agreement-something you have to agree to before proceeding. (Kazaa, for example, was notorious for bundling spyware with its popular file...
...message has been long on showmanship and short on facts. White House officials insist that 2006 will be "a transitional year" in Iraq, and have made it clear they will push Iraqi officials to swiftly form a government after this week's elections.

And there's a character in the book, film and show called Harpo, which as all know is Oprah spelled backward and the name of her production company...
...UC’s meetings, so the UC’s website was correctly envisioned as the most effective way of transmitting information about the UC’s day-to-day activities. There is no excuse for its current state of decay. The UC’s banner presidential and vice-presidential campaigns this year should go beyond personal attacks. They should be more than popularity contests. For students to engage candidates on the issues, they need to know where their candidates stood when the chips were down. It is a regrettable coincidence that, just when student interest...
