Kenali Distro Linux

Linux adalah inti(kernel) sistem pengoperasian yang mirip Unix, tetapi untuk menjadikan ia persekitaran OS yg lengkap perlulah tools lain seperti pengkompil, cengkerang (shell), pengurus tetingkap (window manager) dan persekitaran desktop. Sebenarnya sistem pengoperasian ini sepatutnya dipanggil GNU/Linux, tetapi sudah menjadi kebiasaan untuk memanggilnya "Linux" sahaja.

Kita boleh membina sendiri persekitaran Linux sendiri dengan memuatturun kod sumber dari internet dan mengkompilnya sendiri (malah ada panduan untuk melakukan sedemikian di laman projek LFS - Linux From Scratch), tetapi ini memakan masa yang lama dan memerlukan kemahiran. Oleh itu, biasanya kita memasang Linux daripada koleksi yang telah dibuat oleh pihak lain, sama ada syarikat, organisasi atau individu. Koleksi perisian ini dipanggil "distribution" atau "distro" Linux.

Setiap distro akan mempunyai perisian tersendiri untuk memasang perisian yang dipanggil pengurus pakej. Antara cara pengurusan pakej yang popular ialah rpm, apt-get, pkgtool. Ada juga distro yang memasang perisian daripada kod sumber seperti gentoo dengan portage dan emerge.

Dokumentasi ini merupakan panduan yang ringkas tentang distro-distro yang boleh dipilih utk. memasang Linux.

1. Redhat

Redhat merupakan distro yang paling popular dan boleh dikatakan sinonim dengan "Linux". Ia merupakan antara distro awal yang memuatkan ciri-ciri installer mesra-pengguna. Redhat menyediakan koleksi perisian yang mantap dan terkini. Untuk perisian seperti pengkompil gcc, Redhat merupakan distro yang akan menyediakan versi yang terbaru dgn features yang terbaru. Pengurusan pakejnya ialah rpm, dan konfigurasi sistem dilakukan dengan tools mesra-pengguna yang disediakan oleh Redhat. Ini menjadikan Redhat distro yang bagus untuk desktop dan server.

2. Mandrake

Mandrake merupakan distro yag berasaskan rpm juga, dan ia mirip kpd Redhat dari segi konfigurasi sistem. Fokus Mandrake ialah "mesra pengguna" dan 'terkini", dan distro ini adalah untuk desktop. Ia kurang sesuai dijadikan server kerana kestabilannya tidak berapa mantap, kerana terdapa perisian-perisian dalam distro ini yang belum cukup stabil untuk dilaksanakan 24/7. Walau bagaimanapun, ia sesuai digunakan untuk "newbies" yang baru nak berjinak-jinak dengan Linux kerana ia ramah pengguna.

3. Debian

Debian merupakan distro yang digemari pengaturcara dan sysadmin yang menggunakan perisian "Free", kerana ia dibina atas usaha sukarelawan sepenuhnya. Ia menggunakan pengurus pakej "apt" yang sangat mudah digunakan, tetapi pemasangan untuk kali pertama mungkin agak rumit bagi "newbies". Debian menyediakan pakej yang stabil dan juga yang baru, dan pakej untuk Debian mudah didapati.


4. SuSE

SuSE merupakan distro yang juga rpm-based, dan berasal dari Jerman. Fokusnya ialah enterprise-computing, high-perfomance computing dan workstation. Jika anda membeli SuSE, anda akan mendapat dokumentasi yang sangat teliti dan lengkap. SuSE tidak menyediakan ISO, tetapi anda boleh memasangnya secara percuma menggunakan ftp. SuSE juga menyediakan persekitaran Linux untuk pemproses 64-bit baru yang berprestasi tinggi seperti ppc64, opteron dan itanium2.

5. Slackware

Slackware merupakan antara distro Linux yang terawal, dan merupakan distro yang tertua yang survive sampai hari ini. Pembangunan untuk distro ini agak perlahan, tetapi ia merupakan distro yang sangat stabil. Ia menggunakan pengurus pakej pkgtool yang ringkas dan mudah. Persekitarannya mirip kpd. BSD dan bukannya Sys V seperti Redhat atau Mandrake. Pengurusan sistem dilakukan secara "tradisional" iaitu mengedit fail konfigurasi menggunakan penunting teks. Ia sesuai untuk orang yang sudah biasa dgn sistem Unix lain, ataupun "newbies" yang ingin mempelajari Linux dengan mendalam.

6. Gentoo

Gentoo merupakan distro yang membolehkan anda configure dan customize dan optimize Linux anda semaksima yang mungkin, kerana ia memasang perisian dengan menggunakan cara kompilasi kod sumber. Ia tidak sukar seperti LFS, tetapi memakan masa yang agak lama untuk membuat semua kompilasi. Ia menggunakan sistem "portage" yang mirip kpd "ports" FreeBSD untuk menguruskan pakej.

7. Knoppix

Knoppix merupakan "Live CD" Linux yang boleh dilaksanakan terus daripada CDROM tanpa perlu dipasang. Ia sangat mudah digunakan kerana tidak perlu kpd pemasangan, tetapi ia juga boleh dipasang. Ia berasaskan Debian, dan menggunakan pengurus pakej apt.

Demikianlah senarai distro-distro yang popular pada masa kini. Terdapat ratusan lagi distro lain yang anda boleh lihat sendiri di www.distrowatch.com . Panduan ini hanyalah pengenalan kpd distro-distro yang popular sahaja.

Sepuluh perkara yang menjejaskan prestasi komputer

Kemungkinan selepas setahun kita menggunakan komputer, kita akan dapati terdapat beberapa perubahan yang ketara terhadap prestasi komputer kita misalnya selalu hang ataupun operasi yang semakin lambat. Jika kita pengguna yang hardcore pula, masalah ini pasti berlaku lebih awal lagi. Berikut disenaraikan sepuluh perkara yang dirasakan menjadi punca kepada terjejasnya prestasi komputer kita.

Mikropemproses mengalami kepanasan melampau
Kepanasan melampau ini terjadi apabila motor kipas yang menjadi penyejuk kepada mikropemproses tidak dapat berfungsi dengan baik. Ini disebabkan habuk yang terdapat di sekeliling kipas yang menyekat putaran kipas tersebut. Selain daripada itu, mungkin bearing kipas menjadi longgar yang menyebabkan gegaran berlaku pada mikropemproses. Kesannya ialah mikropemproses tidak dapat bekerja dengan baik.

Masalah RAM
Terdapat juga RAM yang dari jenis murah yang tidak memenuhi spesifi kasi serta mempunyai masalah komposisi cip-cip yang siap terbina. Akibat dari masalah ini, ialah RAM mudah mengalami kepanasan melampau yang menjejaskan keupayaan komputer. Selain daripada itu, masalah ëBlue Screení juga akan lebih kerap berlaku.

Cakera keras
Bagi cakera keras pula, masalah-masalah yang menyebabkan terjejasnya prestasi komputer ialah seperti bertambahnya sektor-sektor rosak (bad sector) ketika melakukan proses chkdsk dan scandisk, kerosakan dalaman (intermittent) yang mengakibatkan kegagalan proses boot dan capaian putaran per masa yang rendah yang mungkin tidak sesuai dengan spesifikasi komputer yang digunakan.

Konfigurasi BIOS
Pengguna komputer seharusnya tidak terlalu bergantung kepada konfigurasi BIOS kilang sebaliknya perlu mengetahui konfigurasi sistem yang optimum. Ini adalah kerana konfigurasi BIOS yang tidak tepat turut mempengaruhi keupayaan komputer.

Pengawal Cakera
Kabel pengawal yang digunakan perlu menepati spesifikasi pengawal cakera yang dipasang. Begitu juga dengan papan ibu (motherboard) yang harus mampu menyokong pengawal cakera. Sebagai contoh pengawal cakera UDMA-66 memerlukan kad khusus untuk dipasang pada papan ibu yang hanya menyokong pengawal cakera UDMA-33. Jika tidak dipasang, ia pasti akan mengundang masalah kepada prestasi komputer.

Sistem Operasi
Sistem operasi seperti Windows XP dan Windows 2000 biasanya mempunyai banyak servis yang dijalankan. Servis-servis yang dijalankan jika terlampau banyak akan merencatkan prestasi komputer. Servis yang jarang diguna sepatutnya diberhentikan kerana ia banyak menggunakan ësumber tenagaí
komputer.

Proses dan Aplikasi
Proses dan Aplikasi (.exe) yang terlampau banyak digunakan akan menyebabkan komputer menjadi perlahan. Untuk melihat proses dan aplikasi yang sedang dilarikan, pengguna bolehlah klik pada bahagian Windows Task Manager.

Fragmentasi Cakera
Fragmentasi cakera berlaku apabila terlalu kerap fail-fail disimpan, dipadam dan ditukar. Ini menyebabkan kandungan fail bertaburan didalam sektor. Fragmentasi juga berlaku apabila kandungan cakera penuh. Seharusnya ruang kosong sebanyak 20 sehingga 25% perlu disediakan bagi mengurangkan masalah fragmentasi ini.

Aplikasi latar belakang
Ramai pengguna yang suka melarikan aplikasi latar belakang secara automatik selepas proses boot ataupun permulaan sistem operasi. Aplikasi yang terlalu banyak dilarikan pada satu-satu masa akan menyebabkan komputer menjadi perlahan dan adakalanya menyebabkan hang. Aplikasi-aplikasi yang digunakan ini boleh dilihat pada folder Startup.

Sistem fail
Dalam sistem operasi Windows terutamanya NT dan 2000, pemilihan sistem fail iaitu NTFS dan FAT adalah sangat penting. Ini adalah kerana sistem fail ini merujuk kepada saiz dan bilangan kelompok dalam sesuatu cakera. Saiz kelompok yang besar akan meningkatkan prestasi komputer. Kebiasaanya, sistem fail NTFS mempunyai saiz kelompok yang lebih besar berbanding FAT.

Pernahkan anda :-
download satu software tiba-tiba sambungan internet terputus ?.
Bila anda sambung download lagi terpaksa download semula dari awal ?
Anda rasa sambungan internet anda begitu lambat sekali ?
Sudah download tetapi tak dapat cari mana file yang telah didownload tadi ?
Jika pernah, silalah cuba tip berikut jika anda mahu download di masa mendatang.

Jangan gunakan pelayar web untuk download

Pelayar web hanya sesuai untuk download file yang kecil-kecil misalnya kurang dari 200kb yang boleh selesai dalam masa seminit saja. Untuk download file yang besar seharusnya anda menggunakan program yang dibuat khas untuk download seperti flashget

Pilih server yang dekat dan laju

Selain dari tapak asal, sesebuah software juga boleh didownload dari banyak tempat yang dikenali sebagai download site seperti download.com, tucows.com, zdnet.com, simtel.net. Pilihlah server yang "dekat" , laju dan menyokong download ulang (resume).

Download manager yang baik akan membuat ping untuk menentukan mana server yang laju.

Bagi kita dari malaysia, dekat bermakna los angeles kerana sambungan internet dari pencawang internet malaysia di brick fields melalui kabel bawah laut merentasi lautan atlantik terus ke palo alto, california.

Jangan tertipu dengan tapak bayangan misalnya di singapura kerana tiada sambungan dari brick field terus ke singapura sebaliknya menuju ke amerika dahulu. Cuba buat traceroute dari jaring/tmnet ke cyberway.com.sg, singnet.com.sg dan tapak kegemaran anda di singapura.

Akan tetapi harus diingat bahawa domain name yang menggunakan penghujung negara misalnya yang berakhir dengan .sg berada di singapura, .my berada di malaysia atau .id berada di indonesia !. Tidak sama sekali. Domain name cuma alamat siber saja. Kedudukan fizikal server boleh berada di mana-mana tempat dalam dunia. Cuma syarikat atau organisasi yang besar sahaja yang mampu mempunyai server sendiri dan menyewa paip internet yang besar yang disambungkan ke internet.

Laju membawa maksud laman web tersebut bila di klik muncul dengan pantas. Ini kerana bagi kebanyakkan domain, ftp server dan web server berada di tempat yang sama. Laju juga boleh bermakna file server tersebut menyokong multi thread (download beberapa sambungan serentak) dan tidak menyekat kelajuan maksima (speed limit).

Resume download

Download ulang bererti bila sambungan internet putus anda boleh menyambung semula download file tadi tanpa perlu dari mula. Anda juga boleh menggunakan fungsi ini untuk menjimatkan bil telepon dengan download sedikit-sedikit bila anda memasuki internet.

Tapak asal untuk versi terkini

Seperti biasa lungsurilah dahulu tapak laman asal untuk mendapatkan perkembangan terbaru mengenai software tersebut. Bagaimanapun versi terkini tidak semestinya lebih bagus. Kebanyakkan versi terbaru cuma menambah fungsi yang tiada dalam versi lama disamping menambahkan saiz file menjadi lebih besar (bloatware). Ada juga berlaku dimana versi lama adalah freeware manakala versi baru kini menjadi shareware.

Jangan download versi baru major upgrade misalnya versi lama ialah 2.8 manakala versi baru ialah 3.0. Ini kerana versi .0 penuh dengan bug. Tunggulah hingga ia menjadi versi 3.1

Jangan download semasa waktu sebok

Internet sebagai lebuhraya digital juga mempunyai waktu sesak sama seperti jalanraya biasa. Mengikut teori, waktu sesak bagi pengguna internet malaysia dan kawasan-kawasan yang sewaktu dengannya ialah pulul 8 malam sambil rehat lepas makan sampai pukul 1 pagi bila semua sudah masuk tidur.

Bagaimanapun dari pengalaman saya dapati pukul 9.30 malam capaian internet masih laju seperti biasa. Mungkin kerana jumlah pengguna internet sudah berpecah kepada jaring, maxisnet, timenet & tmnet.

Bagaimanapun ada hari/ketikanya di mana tak kira siang atau malam capaian internet begitu perlahan sekali. Justru saya berpendapat kelajuan internet ini lebih banyak dipengaruhi oleh penyedia internet tempatan seperti tmnet dan jaring. Ada cerita dalam tmnet.support mengatakan tmnet sengaja menurunkan kelajuan capaian internet tmnet supaya telekom malaysia pemilik tmnet dan telekom boleh untung banyak.

Capaian internet perlahan

Bila membuat sambungan ke internet, anda akan mendail nombor tertentu yang disediakan. Node (atau POP) yang terdekat akan menyambut panggilan tersebut. Ia adalah satu rangkaian modem yang besar tidak seperti modem yang anda gunakan di rumah.

Setiap modem ini mempunyai ratio modem / user yang tertentu. Jika capaian internet anda begitu perlahan mungkin juga modem yang anda gunakan dikongsi oleh ramai pengguna yang lain. Cubalah anda memutuskan sambungan dan mendail semula ke isp anda.

Jika tetap perlahan bermakna terdapat ramai pengguna isp yang sama dengan anda. Cuba dail ke isp yang lain.

Ketahui perkembangan semasa internet

Jangan lupa mengikuti perkembangan semasa mana tahu berlaku kejadian yang tidak diingini misalnya paip internet dasar laut putus seperti yang berlaku berhampiran singapura atau dekat jepun dulu memyebabkan capaian internet ke luar menjadi perlahan.

Perisian tambahan untuk melajukan download yang menggunakan teknik multiple download of the same file(s) from one server or many..

1. Flashget www.flashget.com (for Windows)
2. Prozilla prozilla.genesys.ro (for Linux)

Jika anda menngunakan internet di pejabat ==> tidak digalakkan menggunakan perisian2 ini kerana dia makan banyak bandwidth, user lain akan marah nanti sebab network jadi slow. Kalau pakai kat rumah OK la...

Sekian dan selamat mendownload.

Nie artikel....mengenai spams e-mail

Using a case study of a e-mail I got, it's not really spam but its sort of.

The first rule is NEVER reply to spam, NEVER click the unsubscribe link and NEVER e-mail to the unsubscribe address.

These are simply underhand tactics to get 'active' e-mail addresses.

Some other tips to avoid getting spammed in the first place:

1) Never use your real e-mail address in newsgroups, this is the best place to get picked up by a spam bot. Use something like john-no-spam-at-i.hate.spam-btopenworld.com

Then in your signature put remove -no-spam and i.hate.spam- to reply.

2) Never put your e-mail address on a publically viewable web page as it will be spidered by Google and grabbed by spammers.

If you do need to put an e-mail address use the simple JavaScript below to protect it:

Code:

<!-- Begin Shaolin Tiger E-mail Saver

randomword = "john";
randomword2 = "btopenworld";
append = "?Subject=Enquiry&Body=Please%20Insert%20Your%20Message%20Here.";

document.write('<a href=\"mailto:' + randomword + '@' + randomword2 + append + '\">');
document.write(randomword + '@' + randomword2 + '</a>');
// End -->
</SCRIPT>



3) If you do put your e-mail address anywhere try and obscure it in some way.

4) Create a disposable e-mail address (hotmail or yahoo) that you rarely check for signing up to Web-sites. Most commercial sites will bombard you with spam after you've signed up for whatever services they are offering. Some also sell your address to list makers or other spammer so never give your *real* e-mail address to anyone except people you want to e-mail you.

If you follow all of these you wont get any spam. My yahoo account which I made when I was internet Naive gets about 20-30 spams a day, this is just from signing a few guestbooks with my real e-mail address and putting it on my first home page.

Now I follow the above rules, I don't get any

If you do get some, follow below:

In this example youremail-at-yourdomain.com = Your e-mail address.

Find the full headers of the message, headers can be found in the message source in Outlook Express.

Headers look like this:

Code:

Return-Path: <nobody-at-letters.ezinehub.com>
Delivered-To: securityforumsco-admin-at-127.0.0.1
Received: (qmail 94940 invoked by uid 1373); 2 May 2002 20:16:38 -0000
Delivered-To: youremail-at-yourdomain.com
Received: (qmail 94937 invoked from network); 2 May 2002 20:16:37 -0000
Received: from unknown (HELO letters.ezinehub.com) (64.23.12.74)
by ns1.dc-hosting.net with SMTP; 2 May 2002 20:16:37 -0000
Received: (from nobody-at-localhost)
by letters.ezinehub.com (8.11.6/8.9.3) id g42KKTr28012;
Thu, 2 May 2002 16:20:29 -0400
Date: Thu, 2 May 2002 16:20:29 -0400
Message-Id: <200205022020.g42KKTr28012-at-letters.ezinehub.com>
To: youremail-at-yourdomain.com
From: support-at-exactseek.com
Subject: Important ExactSeek site listing information.



The main things you want to look for are:

1) The e-mail address it originated from (Most likely spoofed)

From: support-at-exactseek.com

2) The server used to send it (Most likely an open relay)

by letters.ezinehub.com (8.11.6/8.9.3) id g42KKTr28012

3) The IP address it originated from (Usually unspoofed, often encoded or hidden)

(HELO letters.ezinehub.com) (64.23.12.74)

In this case as this resulted from a search engine submission the SMTP server and the senders IP are the same.

Generally they would be different.

The next stage is to find the upstream provider of the SMTP server and the originating IP. Also take note of the domain the e-mail appeared to come from.

For this we would use Sam Spade or something similar.

If you are using Win2k you can just use tracert (Trace Route) from the command line.

As Samspade is down for maintenance at the moment I will use tracert in this example.

Result of tracert on letters.ezinehub.com

1 160 ms 160 ms 161 ms 194.176.218.67
2 240 ms 181 ms 140 ms 194.176.218.242
3 161 ms 180 ms 160 ms 194.176.218.43
4 160 ms 160 ms 180 ms 194.176.220.189
5 160 ms 160 ms 160 ms sl-gw10-lon-8-0.sprintlink.net [213.206.130.9]
6 160 ms 160 ms 161 ms sl-bb21-lon-8-0.sprintlink.net [213.206.128.45]
7 220 ms 241 ms 240 ms sl-bb20-msq-10-0.sprintlink.net [144.232.19.69]
8 340 ms 240 ms 241 ms sl-bb20-rly-15-1.sprintlink.net [144.232.19.94]
9 240 ms 241 ms 240 ms sl-gw19-rly-9-0.sprintlink.net [144.232.14.26]
10 240 ms 241 ms 240 ms sl-affinity-11-0-0.sprintlink.net [160.81.221.150]
11 240 ms 240 ms 241 ms core2a.balt.skynetweb.com [208.231.4.4]
12 241 ms 240 ms 240 ms ezinehub.com [64.23.0.31]

As can be seen the upstream provider is sprintlink.net and the web host most likely skynetweb.com.

This should be repeated for the provider of both the originating IP address and the SMTP server used.

The next step is to e-mail all of these people using the e-mail I constructed below:

EDUCATE your Users or cut them off at the phone line!




E-mail this to abuse@, spam@, postmaster@ all the ISP's/Web-hosts/Services providers you identified using traceroute or Samspade.

E.g. in this case abuse-at-sprintlink.net; spam-at-sprintlink.net etc.

Include the full e-mail with full headers, proof of traceroutes and so on.

Stop the spammer, they are wasting everyones bandwidth.

I will update this document whenever I think of something to add to it, or something new comes up.

101 Ways to Save the Internet
----------------------------------------


By Paul Boutin

Where's a superhero when you need one? The Net, which once seemed so invincible, is under attack by the forces of evil. Viruses knock servers to their knees. Spammers hijack our inboxes. Hackers and identity thieves menace our collective security and personal privacy.

Desperate solutions range from abandoning email to requiring a license to log on. Halt, fools! The Internet's problems stem from the same virtues that make it great: open architecture, the free flow of information, peer-to-peer cooperation, and a bias for linking strangers, not disconnecting them. Take those away and the Net might cease to infuriate us - but it will also cease to amaze us.

Here's a smarter approach: 101 proposals that harness the Net's own superpowers to defeat its foes. Up, up, and away!

1 Unleash vigilante justice on spammers One activist has proposed filters that launch distributed denial-of-service attacks back at spammers. Great. Just make sure we have the right addresses first.

2 Slash song prices charge 29 cents per download. You''ll make it up in volume.

3 Quit already, Jack Valenti

4 Appoint Larry Lessig to the Supreme Court Is he a Democrat or a Republican? Who cares! Laws governing information flow are the new affirmative action, abortion, and gun control rolled into one.

5 Create the all-in-one inbox Email, phone calls, instant messages - they should all go into a single app.

6 Triple our cable modem speed First step: Just turn off the Golf Channel and UPN.

7 Demand truth in advertising for software updates C'mon, AOL 9.0 is really AOL 8.0 with the version number increased 1.0.

8 Declare spammers are terrorists And put Ashcroft, Ridge, and Rumsfeld on their tails.

9 Hands off Internet phone calls Just because the creaky old phone system was regulated to death doesn't mean VoIP should suffer the same fate.

10 Free the handsets We should be able to buy any cell phone and match it with any service plan.

11. sudah ditapis.... ;D

12 Make email addresses portable

13 Don't let the Pentagon hog the airwaves The DOD doesn't need that many civilian-free radio frequencies to do its job.

14 Dump the Digital Millennium Copyright Act

15 Stop the US Patent Office before they patent the hyperlink Oops, too late.

16 Simplify Web publishing Why can't we post files from our desktop to a Web site in one drag-and-drop move?

17 Let a thousand Wi-Fis bloom Open spectrum is the new open source.

18 sudah ditapis.... ;D

19 Make privacy a personal asset Canada has it already: a law that prevents firms from consolidating all customer information after a merger.

20 Roll out GAAP for geeks Just as with accounting, create an industry standard for network security. Don't forget the penalties for companies that don't comply.

21 Bring on the perp walks We want to see the next CEO whose company's servers leak 10,000 credit card numbers marched past TV cameras by the FBI.

22 Take back UHF We're tired of running our wireless network on the same frequency as the microwave, the cell phone, and the neighbor's baby monitor. Channel 83 is just sitting there.

23 Offer real RIAA amnesty Instead of telling us to delete MP3s or pay a fine, how about you let us pay a fair price to keep them.

24 Release Episode III on the Net It's going straight to video anyway.

25 Pass a White Hat Protection Act Hackers who find holes in corporate networks should get thanks, not handcuffs.

ANTISPAM TOOLBOX
None of these is a magic bullet. But together, they can force junk mail down to levels we can all live with.
Items 26-33

26 Pass the Do Not Spam list Chuck Schumer's Senate bill sticks American inbox bombers with steep fines and creates a special circle in hell for those who send porn to tots. It's not 100 percent enforceable, but neither is the speed limit on Interstate 80.

27 Automate the FTC Replace the Federal Trade Commission's manual email address for reporting spam ([e-mail]) with a nationwide collaborative filtering service like Cloudmark's SpamNet.

28 Simplify disposable addresses

29 Stop email forgery A geeky feature called Reverse MX makes it impossible to masquerade as [e-mail].

30 Scramble archived addresses Online archives of mailing lists are a treasure trove for spammers. Give members the option to have their addresses scrambled in posts.

31 Enable digital signatures Crypto certificates are the most reliable way to tell email friend from faux. ISPs and corporate IT guys should pass them out as a competitive advantage.

32 Build friend-of-a-friend filters Think of it as Friendster for your inbox. Everyone on our list can email everyone on yours, but outsiders have to fill out those annoying SpamCop forms.

33 Create a P2P email program We directly trade MP3 files, instant messages, and now phone calls without the bother of backend servers. So why not email messages?

34 Spyware vs. Spyware Counterspyware shouldn't just find spyware installed on our computers. It should hunt down the punk who put it there.

35 Link Moviefone and Fandango Cut a deal so we don't have to search both your sites for theaters.

36 Allow Wi-Fi roaming The Cloud and Boingo share their hot spots - now how about T-Mobile, Verizon, et al.?

37 End broadband monopolies You can't get DSL without first signing up with the local phone bureaucracy for a line you won't use. This is deregulation?

con't....

38 Simplify URLs Why can't www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail//0375502904/qid=1068751824/sr=12-8/103-2810600-6302246?v=glance&s=books be amazon/wolf/wired?

39 Upgrade to IPv6 The next-gen Internet protocol will improve security and add 340,282,366,920,938,463,463,374,607,427,473,244,160 IP addresses - enough for everything, ever.

40 Big music, follow the money 8 of 9 adults beyond student age still pay for songs instead of ripping them.

41 Free the archives Require that copyright owners reregister works after 50 years and put everything else up for grabs. The Magic Kingdom gets to keep Mickey Mouse, while archivists can digitize deteriorating unclaimed films without fear of lawsuits.

42 Replace servers with P2P Too many network services - domain names, Web servers, email - rely on the old client-server model, which is vulnerable to attack.

43 Unleash Jeff Bezos, rock star C'mon, Jeff, you can build a better music store than the dude in the black turtleneck or Mr. Bill.

44 Publish Creative Commons for Dummies The open copyright licensing system is pure genius. But you need to be a genius to use it.

45 VeriSign must die

46 Free the Beeb The BBC is dragging its feet on a plan to put its vast archives online. Come on, chaps, it's your best idea since Monty Python.

47 Upgrade phone booths to Wi-Fi

48 Free Rob Glaser! The barrage of pop-ups that clutter the screen when we try to use RealOne can only be a cry for help: Geek guru Glaser is being held hostage by his own marketing department!

49 Mesh networks everywhere If wireless signals could hop from gadget to gadget, we wouldn't have to hunt for hot spots.

50 Add a broadband department to Wal-MartYou've put every local hardware store out of business. How about the cable guy and the phone company next?

51 And while you're at it Bundle a combo PC, DSL-cable modem, and wireless home router for, oh, $299.99.

Microsoft To-Do List

Here are a few suggestions that don't require breaking up the company or shipping Linux.
Items 52-64

52 Hey Steve, fire someone Somebody's not living up to the company's tough talk on fixing bugs. Developers, developers, developers should be accountable, accountable, accountable.

53 Give away a good spam filter

54 Ship antivirus wizard Why can't the paper clip guy tell us something important, like "This message is infected with Sobig"?

55 Block self-installing adware for good

56 Enable automatic file encryption We've heard the promises for years. But even Apple offers this already - what's the holdup?

57 Filter fake error messages Those ads that pose as Windows error messages ("Your computer may be infected! Download fix?") should appear in front of your lawyers, not us.

58 Take the blame Software license agreements that absolve you of, oh, deleting three years' worth of email are irresponsible. Bugs are negligence, and negligence should cost you, not us.

59 Make anonymous Net use easier

60 Make networked home PCs back each other up

61 Create a security advisory board Appoint some outsiders (hello, Dan Geer?) to decide which security upgrades should be auto-pushed to consumers' PCs - then make it happen.

62 Add a low-bandwidth mode to Internet Explorer

63 Offer more language translation We want to read those Iranian blogs.

64 Simplify for security Fewer features means fewer bugs.

65 Establish an ID theft hotline Having your identity stolen is a nightmare, especially the paperwork. Wells Fargo has proposed a one-call service. By sharing and analyzing data, financial services companies could then sort criminals from customers.

66 Shut down pedophile chat rooms Its just a bunch of undercover FBI guys in there anyway.

67 End phone subsidies A byzantine maze of hidden revenue transfers - universal service, excise tax, TTY/TDD access, 911, et cetera - discourages innovations like Vonage that don't fit the regulatory format. Pay for all this stuff from general taxes instead of sneaking it onto the phone bill.

68 Write to President Schwarzenegger When he gets to Washington in, oh, 2012, maybe he can terminate the legislation that mandates insane fixes for digital piracy.

69 Restore due process for ISPs Reverse the legal precedent that requires providers to hand over their customers' names under subpoena - at least until they stop handing over the wrong names.

70 Keep blogging, Howard Dean

71 Add a recall function for email messages Outlook (with Microsoft Exchange Server) does it, why can't everyone else?

72 Install the Slammer Panic button Give operators at top traffic hubs the right to instantly block malicious packets worldwide instead of paging one another - an attack on one is an attack on all.

101 Ways to Save the Internet (continued)


Your To-Do List
Surf globally, act locally. There are some things you'll just have to do yourself:
Items 87-95

87 Switch your ISP Some offer anti-spam and anti-virus tools and support. If your current provider won't help you defend yourself, find another that will.

88 Change your screen name Is your screen name the same as your email address? Are you getting spam? Duh.

89 Demand privacy reports Push companies to reveal the info they have on you and with whom it has been shared - the privacy version of a credit report.

90 Death to fax machines Send us an attachment instead.

91 Stop with the jokes If we get the one about French military victories one more time, we're going to come over and unplug you personally.

92 Turn off your HTML email It makes you vulnerable to viruses - and bugs us.

93 Don't open it When you get a suspicious-looking email attachment, resist the urge to click.

94 Tell Kelly on Geocities to take down her Macarena tribute page It's over, Kel.

95 Protect yourself, dumbass Download security and virus patches at Microsoft.com/protect.

96 Blanket airports with Wi-Fi There are more Centrino ads than hot spots. How about covering check-in lines, gates, baggage claim, and the restrooms.

97 Celebrate diversity With nearly every computer on the planet running Windows, Outlook, and Explorer, it's too easy for a single virus to spread everywhere.

98 Add a "Skip All Flash Intros" option to Macromedia players

99 Hire Tom Ford to design Dells Just look what he did for Gucci.

100 Dear Mr. President, whatever you're doing to make cybersecurity czars quit, stop it

101 Madonna, the EFF needs you Your "Hollywood" video ripping off, er, paying tribute to photographer Guy Bourdin is the boldest argument for fair use since Warhol.

Special thanks: Rand Wacker, Kevin Werbach, Bruce Schneier, Hal Varian, Scott Rafer, Dave Winer
