Recently i noticed that by visiting a random page at macrumors.com safari starts downloading a file called "banner.php.jpeg". After download the banner is automatically shown in preview.
Havent seen it happening on windows, but happens often on my mac and only when visiting macrumors.com.
The file is downloaded from:
_h_t_t_p://banner.nonstoppartner.net/common/banner.php?i=view&client=otto&l=nl&camp=aktion&size=160x600
I consider this a security issue since it starts OSX preview to show the banner jpeg and could possibly run malicious code.
Anyone else seen this issue?
Thanks
Bjorn.

The icon problem doesn't sound right to me. If you don't have the applications (Office etc.) the icons will show up all generic like but otherwise you have a problem. Try repairing permissions using Disk Utility in the Utilities folder in Applications. Hopefully that'll put them right.
As for the folder sorting in the finder, try sorting by type instead of alphabetically. I'm not near my Mac so I'm not sure if this will work but it will keep the folders separate from files etc and it should still keep them alphabetized in their respective groups. Fingers crossed! :)

Another observation using a WiFi/3G iPad 2 (Verizon) --
Frequently this iPad 2 will not connect to the 3G network or to known WiFi until the unit is turned off and then back on.
For example, this morning I was sitting in my car in a parking lot and needed to get some information on the web. The area I was in is a good 3G location. I typically keep the 3G off until I need it. I used the Cellular Data on/off slider and turned on the 3G, and even after waiting a few minutes there was no indication of a 3G connection.
With the Cellular Data slider turned on I then used the Airplane Mode slider and turned that on then off. Only when it was turned off did the upper left corner indicate that it was searching for a 3G signal. It never found one. :mad:
I had to turn the unit off then back on again to get the 3G connection. I have noticed this as well with WiFi, but not as frequently as the 3G connection.
I also have this exact same problem and got replaced with a new one but, the new one still has the same problem. Then Genius saw the problem as a software bug, written an expedited bug report to the engineer and, hopefully it will get fixed soon.
For now, leave the 3G connection ON all the time. Don't restart the ipad with 3G turned off.

I do not qualify for early upgrade. Also, I plan to upgrade to iPhone5 when it comes out (as I will qualify for upgrade then.)
I just swapped my black one out at Apple, I haven't even used it yet, so I'm trying to figure what it would cost to sell this, and get a white.

This is probably going to sound really dumb but I can't figure out how to restrict my AdSense ads to just a specific category on a specific page.
That is, I want all of the ads to appear on all of my sites -- except for one site. On that site I just want "tech" ads to appear. However, if I try to restrict by content on my AdSense dashboard then I will end up restricting ALL of my sites. There does not be a way to restrict the content of my ads based on the ad CHANNEL. Unless I am being super dumb.
Anyone have a good alternative to AdSense that I can use for just this one site?

So I recently got a new HDD, did a clean install of OSX, and while I was at it, I bought Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. Previous to the HDD upgrade, I was running Windows XP.
The only thing I use Windows for is Games (Bad Company 2) and Quickbooks. That's it. I thought Windows 7 would help run games smoother, but it turns out it's more choppy now and the framerate has dropped.
TL;DR: Can I install windows XP over windows 7 without a problem? Or do I need to do something else? Would I have to do a clean install of the whole OS's? Thanks in advance.

On their store, apple has their 160 day same-as-cash credit thing. I was just wondering if that is the same thing as if I bought my computer and then paid off the whole lump-sum before the 160 days, it would be interest-free? I'm confused Thanks for any help on the matter.
BTW, I did raise this question on another thread, but it was unrelated so I decided to make a new thread for this question to get more targeted answers.
Yes.
But are you sure it's not their 120 day same as cash (http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/72604/wo/LA2hqwI6Efvo2BzHYzY1YfFzkyi/0.0.15.1.0.6.15.0.6.0.0.7.0)?

As stated by spymac: The current iMac line may soon be shaken up and reconfigured, recent rumor and public information suggests.
Just weeks after confirming the discontinuation of the 15" Studio Display, retailers known to Spymac have come forward claiming continued difficulty receiving the low-end iMac CD-RW.
"This is the second delivery in a row that the [iMac CD-RWs] did not come through from Ingram Micro," says one reseller. "They're still available for order but are not arriving."
Although DigiTimes recently reported that 15" iMacs would be discontinued in October, Spymac sources confirmed that none of the other iMac configurations are experiencing ordering irregularities.
Earlier this month, Apple dropped the price of the 15" CD-RW iMac by US$100, bringing its price to $1,199.
"The 17" model continues to sell great," concludes the reseller. "Perhaps this marks the beginning of an additional 17" model to the line?"
Current sources did not immediately respond to questions; more information as it becomes available.
Although I'm not in the market for a new desktop (my 15" iMac is doing fine:D )
I'm excited to see what changes are going to be made to the iMac. I hope the style stays for a while though, I'd hate to see them put out a whole new iMac until mid or late 2003.

Sysops are commonly used to patrol all the edits to make sure that bad content doesn't creep in - reverting edits back to where they were if an edit was bogus. (They use that "Mark edit as Patrolled" link)
^^^
Good idea.
Whould also be nice if people were consistant about putting a little bit of text in the summary, at least, when doing Major edits.

I hope this turns into a distributed computing project we can all participate in.
Older news story, October 2006: The virtual medical man (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/connected/main.jhtml?xml=/connected/2006/10/31/ecman31.xml)
Excerpt:Dr Marco Viceconti and hundreds of experts from all over the world will meet at the Universit� Libre de Bruxelles to discuss the virtual physiological human, or VPH, which aims to integrate efforts to model the workings of organs in a computer to create a virtual body.
The dream is that one day, thanks to this effort, a computer model will be able to bleed like we do and see the same cascade of clotting factors go into action. Immune cells will stream to the virtual wound, and biochemical stress reactions will send chemical shockwaves rippling through the body. Simulations could be used to test new anti-scarring agents, healing pharmaceuticals or drugs to calm a wounded firefighter
The first tranche of around �50 million is expected to be announced for a decade-long European VPH effort costing around �350 million. Although it will never be possible to make a true virtual human being, from genes and proteins within cells, to substructures of cells to organs and, of course, the body as a whole, Dr Viceconti believes that even partial incarnations will help medical research.
The latest news is that the VPH has passed a real-world test: Supercomputer 'virtual human' to help fight disease (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/main.jhtml?xml=/earth/2008/02/08/scihuman108.xml)
The combined supercomputing power of Britain and America has enabled scientists to simulate an Aids infection in the virtual being, so they could see how effective an Aids drug really is in blocking a key protein used by the lethal virus to multiply.
Instead of giving a patient a course of drugs and then seeing if they work, the hope is that this can be done in a virtual human first, so the patient is given the one that works.
Although, at around �8000 of computer time alone (about the same as a long range weather forecast), this calculations are too costly to use in the NHS, the price of computer power is falling all the time, he says.
Another factor is the rise of computer grids, which allow raw supercomputing power to be tapped as easily as we get electricity through a socket.

Possibly so that they can process most of the people with reservations before starting with the people without? After all, it wouldn't be fair if they had lots of spare units and started letting people just walk in and buy one, with people in the reservation line having to wait.
