[ND] I think your hardware posts are pretty tedious - [RZ] but they are on-topic.... Yes, I agree, and didn't say that they weren't. However, there is a ql-developers list for hardware ? So, effectively, all the hardware stuff in ql-users *is* OT in that respect - no-one has complained about that. >> There is just this one ql-users mailing list. And ql-developers for hardware :o) >> A short mention of a new virus would be ok, but that was definitely too >> much and it keeps comming again and again. Maybe. I *have* to subscribe to a 'new virus alert' list at work, and there are new MS virii almost every hour or so. If we had a short warning on all of these then we'd have no room for any QL stuff. As far as I remember, the conversation was to do with someone on the list sending virusses out to the rest of us. Very on topic to me - and a few others. I agree that general discussion that 'goes on and on' is OT. >> Give up, despite all warnings >> about new virii the situation will not get better and you can not do >> anything to salvage the poor MS Outlook abducted users. Indeed, and when we all get over to Linux the world will be a better place. But then the script kiddies will just change over as well, and we will have the Linux equivalent to the current MS situation. Mind you, security holes should be filled in quicker .... >> It is their choice to use this program so I am sure they can deal with it. Not always. I have no choice at work and that is where I am when I'm using this list. It *has* to be Outlook, warts and all.
