Dismal Failure of Internet Filters In Australia
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/03/04/0116227

    An anonymous reader writes "The [0]Sydney Morning Herald is reporting
    that the Australian Broadcasting Authority (ABA), the department
    responsible for implementing the insane Internet regulatory framework
    put in place by the current government, is about to drop a number of
    Internet Filtering packages due to their ineffectiveness. The [1]full
    article is available here. There is also news that the Minister for
    Communications, Senator Richard Alston (whom The Register has labeled
    the Worlds Biggest Luddite :) ) is awaiting a review of the law with
    possible changes to follow. Be afraid Australia, be very afraid!"

What Percentage of Internet Traffic is Pr0n?
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/03/03/2012241

    An anonymous reader asks: "We all joke about how much of the Internet's
    traffic is porn, but are there are credible studies that give a
    definitive answer, or at least make a reasonably intelligent guess?
    Looking at the amount of movie clips and entire flicks posted to the
    '*.erotica.*' newsgroups on a daily basis, I have to believe that porn
    is a significant percentage of the traffic, but is it 10%, 20%, 50%?
    More? I've tried to research this on my own, but Google keeps sending
    me to sites with porn, not site about porn. (No, really!)"

Minimum Seek Hard Disk Drivers for Unix?
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/03/03/213254

    [0]Jonathan Andrews asks: "I remember back in the old days reading
    about a filesystem/device driver that had alomost no seeks of the
    physical disk. It worked by scanning the heads of the disk from track 0
    to the end then back again in a constant motion. Disk reads and writes
    where cached so that they got written to disk only when the heads where
    on that part of the platter. My question is simple, now that disks are
    IDE, have lots of heads and even worse differing Heads/Cylander/Sector
    translation scemes is this type of system even possible? Would you have
    to fight the disk cache on the drive? I seem to recall it giving real
    throughput advantages, if the cache was large enough to hold 'one sweep
    times worth of data' then the cache almost never blocked and disk
    writes/reads sustained at the max throughput all the time. Best of all
    it gets rid of that blased seeking, chewing, seeking noise!"

    China being having a space program is only one (profound) question.
    Another one is whether we should be mining the moon: I'm sure the more
    'vocal' conservationalists have one opinion. What about mining
    asteroids?"

    reasonable default. * Several bugs were fixed in the ensocket
    networking plugin. * PNG image loader now works on platforms with
    different structure sizes. * Map2CS outputs directly usable XML now.
    levtool is still needed to improve performance. * Bug fixed in OpenGL
    which could causes objects to disappear. * Fullscreen in Windows/OpenGL
    works better now. * Fixed memory leak in OpenGL. * Fixed memory
    overwrite bug in Dynavis. This could cause crashes at exit. * Fixed
    several culling errors in Dynavis. * Fixed dynamic ambient for objects
    using DrawPolygonMesh. * Fixed ref counting problems in the DirectSound
    renderer. * Fixed a bug in the AWS notebook. * Fixed bugs in the
    sequence manager to ensure that operations are fired in the right
    order. * Added new csArray class. * The localshadows flag for genmesh
    now works. * 'ball' mesh object now implements iPolygonMesh (can be
    used for collision detection). * Static and pseudo-dynamic lighting
    recalculation is now a LOT faster (several factors). * Updating the
    color of a pseudo-dynamic light is also faster. * Fixed several bugs in
    the console. * Several smaller performance improvements. * Several
    smaller bug fixes. * Several configure/autoconf changes. Check out
    http://crystal.sf.net for more information.

http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=256312

    tcpdump 3.7.2 has been released. As described in the ChangeLog, a
    handful of security problems have been addressed. In particular,

POPFile v0.18.1 released
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=256338

    POPFile is an email classification tool with a Naive Bayes classifier,
    a POP3 proxy and a web interface. It runs on most platforms and with
    most email clients. Release 0.18.1 fixes bugs found in the major 0.18
    major release and has significant accessibility enhancements (Bobby AA
    rating). INTRODUCTION v0.18.0 was a major update and inevitably some
    bugs crept in that we didn't detect prior to shipping. Happily they
    have been fixed, and even more happily the regression test suite now
    has tests for many of them so that they will never reoccur. v0.18.1
    fixes these bugs (see THE GORY DETAILS below for the gory details) and
    also has two significant changes: the caching code associated with the
    History page has been totally rewritten by me so that the History
    barely slows down as the number of messages in the History increases;
    the Windows installer can now configure Outlook and Outlook Express
    Internet email accounts for you (and undo the changes if you uninstall
    POPFile). POPFile v0.18.1 is also the first version where the UI meets
    the Bobby AA rating for accessibility. This means that not only does
    POPFile not discriminate against particular operating system, or
    natural languages, or ways you want to sort your mail, but it is also
    accessible by everyone regardless of the specific challenges they face.
    (FOr more details on this drop by
    http://bobby.watchfire.com/bobby/html/en/about.jsp) Aside: If you are
    young, fit, and computer literate you might wonder why I bothered to
    make Bobby-level accessibility a requirement. Early on in POPFile's
    development a user told me that POPFile was a life changer. For him,
    sorting mail had been an arduous, frustrating task. ESSENTIAL READING
    IF YOU ARE UPGRADING FROM v0.17.x 1. BACK UP YOUR OLD INSTALLATION:
    POPFile makes this really easy, just copy the entire POPFile directory
    somewhere. You can then safely install POPFile v0.18.1 on top of your
    current installation; I just think a back up is a sensible precaution.
    2. YOUR HISTORY WILL CLEAR: I have changed the format of the History
    files used in this version which means that the old History files will
    not be read by POPFile and will in fact be deleted to save disk space.
    If you need to do any reclassifications prior to installing v0.18.1 do
    them! POPFile does NOT clear buckets, statistics or anything else on
    install of this version, just the History files. To refresh the History
    view click the History tab at any time; POPFile will check disk for new
    messages. 3. IF YOU HAD BROKEN MAGNETS: I have added automatic update
    of broken magnets. If you had a magnet like [foo] which POPFile
    mistakenly changed to \[foo\] it should get magically fixed and start
    working. 4. ACCURACY MIGHT DROP FOR A SHORT WHILE: because of some
    changes made in the mail parser it is possible that you might see
    accuracy drop initially and you may find yourself reclassifying a few
    messages that used to work. This is unfortunate but necessary to make
    POPFile even more accurate than before and v0.18.1 incorporates changes
    that make POPFile's classification accuracy better; however old
    corpuses might need a little retraining. DOWNLOADING You can obtain the
    latest release of POPFile by visiting
    http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=63137 UPGRADING
    Just install POPFile on top of the currently installed version. But did
    you read the ESSENTIAL READING above first if you are upgrading from a
    pre v0.18.0 version? FAQ zonk3r has spent a great deal of time on a
    POPFile FAQ. Please check it out as it covers many questions that you
    might have:

    7 THE GORY DETAILS 1. Fixed a serious bug that could cause POPFile to
    stop responding to POP3 and HTTP requests in the middle of downloading
    mail when the mail message containing a MIME encoding that used certain
    characters that were special in a Perl regular expression. (Reported by
    ecarlseen, gilesjuk, panther757, szkaroly and fixed by sschinke) 2. The
    skinning system continues to evole with kraelen, stanley_krute and
    kinematics working madly to make everything skinnable, make everything
    comply with HTML 4.01, CSS1 and Bobby AA guidelines. 3. The code that
    handled the History cache that was meant to speed the loading of the
    History pages and that I originally wrote was pretty lame and some
    people (including me!) were ending up with 1000 message in the history
    and the load time sucked. So I fixed it. The new cache will load ONCE
    and ONLY ONCE per file and caches everything in memory. When new
    messages are received they get loaded once per new message as well.
    When a History page needs to be generated everything can be loaded from
    the cache without doing any disk access which means that you should see
    little difference between 10 messages and 1000. 4. To magnets would not
    work correctly if the To line in the email header contained multiple
    lines. (Reported by drunin and fixed by kinematics) 5. There was a
    nasty problem where sometimes the statistics would not update correctly
    which typically happened when you downloaded a large number of emails
    in one batch. This was caused by the fact that we weren't flushing the
    pipe between the child POP3 process and the parent regularly, this has
    been modified so that this can never happen and statistics update in
    real time even as mail is downloading. (Reported by burale, ct85711) 6.
    The Windows installer has been much improved with the assistance of
    xuesheng to make it reconfigure Outlook and Outlook Express for you and
    include a number of new screens. 7. Quarantine had a couple of bugs
    where it would show the incorrect date (reported by thejcab) and the
    wrong to address (reported by dyoungmciwcom) under some circumtances.
    8. When the From or Subject was encoded using base64 or quoted
    printable weird things would show up in the History. (Reported by
    goulduck and fixed by williamxp) 9. spf and I went back and forth
    discussing line endings in the files saved to disk so that all the MSG
    and CLS files could be loaded into an editor on any platform without
    extraneous characters. 10. People who live on the Bleeding Edge were
    getting update warnings from POPFile even though they were on the
    latest version. This has been fixed on the update server. 11. Magnets
    containing the & character could not be deleted. (Reported by the
    infamous stanley_krute and fixed by helphand) 12. There was a bug
    associateds with invisible ink detection that could cause POPFile's
    HTML engine to think invisible ink was in use when a font tag spanned a
    table. (Reported by mfichtner) 13. If POPFile didn't exit gracefully
    then statistics were not being saved to disk and would not be up to
    date. (Reported by daemon72) 14. The Shutdown page had no CSS because
    POPFile was shutdown, we now have a simple SSI solution just for the
    shutdown page. (Fix and report by helphand) 15. There was a problem
    with Subject Line Modification where if it was turned off every subject
    line got an extra space in it. (Reported by and fixed by helphand) 16.
    There was a bug where you couldn't look up words that had # in them.
    (Reported by adammc and fixed by helphand) 17. Viewing base64 encoded
    messages in the History resulted in little useful output. (Reported by
    biljir and fixed by pkarlin) 18. sschinke whipped up a new -archive
    option that causes message removed from the History to get saved away
    on disk. 19. sschinke made POPFile behave better when a POP3 server
    suddenly stops responding in the middle of a conversation. DONATIONS
