   Review - ICQ v5

   5.10 Build 3000 (Jul 11, 2006)

   The original IM program, however the new versions seem to be getting worse. And yes people still use ICQ it's still the non teeny-bopper IM and for that I'm thankful.
   
   I still use ICQ 99b or Trillian.
   
   AOL please stop killing the ICQ app

2. Comment - RIAA Sues LimeWire Over Piracy

   5.10 Build 3000 (Aug 8, 2006 - 12:01 PM)

   In a nutshell. I think its more about intent. Limewire (and network) where created to share data weather legal or illegal. Thats what its intent was.
   Guns where intended to kill not scare/mame but kill.
   
   If you are going to hold base companies resonsible for the actions of the people who use their products, what laws are good for one are good for all of them.
   
   Also I have no problem buying music but my only problem is that the RIAA is claiming a huge percentage of the profits. For what to bank roll more lawyers.
   
   Lower the price and dump the bureaucrats, they might notice that sales increase.

3. Comment - Microsoft Responds to WGA Concerns

   Bugs naturally exist yes, but when you patch the same thing multiple times. It should be once in a blue moon that another one could be found.
   
   For example how many patches have been released for IE? You would have thought that someone might have realized that the way they are programming is flawed. Possibly it would be a good idea to rethink their methodology.
   
   Yes "can't exist" is alittle strong but really, where is their error checking. I've seen Windows return some stupid errors for expected input.

   Programmers bring new ideas to Windows?? What new briliant ideas have they brought? The new stupid, usless, dumbed up interface. Time to get some new programmers.
   
   If you follow the basics of programming you shouldn't have to worry about all the bugs, simply because they cant exist.
   
   Modules people.

5. Comment - Grokster Shuts P2P Service, Owes $50m

   5.10 Build 3000 (Nov 9, 2005 - 1:25 PM)

   So a P2P is responsible for what their users do.. Ok that seems legitimate, however now that this has been done lets look at more revelant issues.
   
   -Gun manufacturers are now responsible for Shootings causing death/robberies.
   -Knife manufacturers now have the same problem.
   -Automobile manufacturers are now responsible for drunk drivers
   -Electronics manufacturers (those that make video cameras) are now to be held liable for pirating movies.
   
   Wow there's gonna be good money to be made if you are a lawyer.
