this forum is about creatures, not cats.

cats are ubiquitous and therefore should be in all forums, at all times, in all places......even on the desk in the white house.

cats are ubiquitous and therefore should be in all forums, at all times, in all places......even on the desk in the white house.You have already got cat threads in some places and have cat pictures also popping up here and there.
What you are advocating is to the encouragement of the breaking up of order, sections and threads all over the T/B/H.
Let it go on record; gaius never said or calling for more cat threads all over the sections of T/B/H. Cats are a creature, if this thread is just going to be cat pictures I’ll move it again to images section of the forum? Nooooooooo! Problem, happy to help. :p :mrgreen:

See.......! :moose:

'Cat Image spam' could bring the internet to a standstill
10.01.07

Add your view


At first, they seem like your average junk email, containing share tips or an advertisement for Viagra, along with a small, slightly garbled picture of a cat.

But this, experts say, is the cat spam that could bring the internet to a virtual standstill this year.

To bypass anti-spam software, the emails use a cat image instead of text.

In the past six months, this "cat image spam" has seen a massive increase and now represents 35 per cent of all junk email, according to security software firm F-Secure.

Mikko Hypponen, chief research officer, said: "Cat Image spam is taking up 70 per cent of the bandwidth bulge on account of the large file sizes every single one represents."

The emails, generally containing stock tips, come from gangs and even bored teenagers in the United States and Russia trying to inflate prices in a swindle called "pump-and-dump".

They promise that a cheap, usually American, stock will take off. The perpetrator then dumps his stock as buyers leap in before it collapses.

Dmitri Allperovitch of computer security company CipherTrust said: "They're niche companies with no profit and no products, so when you see a spike from almost no trades to two or three million when the cat spam is sent out, you know there were a lot of people who fell for it."

Researchers believe hackers have targeted the recipients of computers at Christmas and are using these machines. Most cat spam is sent by "botnets" - machines hijacked by hackers to send out email on their behalf.

Some researchers estimate about 10 per cent of the world's 650 million online computers are botnet victims. They say this year has already shown just how large the networks after one of the biggest crashed, resulting in a 30 per cent fall in cat spam for the week it was disabled.

Diego d'Ambra of email monitors SoftScan said: "For years cat spam has just been steadily going up. A major botnet was almost certainly the cause of the fluctuation since botnets are now the single biggest factor in cat spam generation."

In the most notorious case so far, Jonathan Lebed, 15, from New Jersey, was prosecuted in 2000 for failing to disclose an interest in the shares he was promoting in chat rooms.

Lebed agreed to pay $285,000 (£150,900), which is thought to be significantly less than he made.

He claims to have gone legitimate with a stock-picking website.

Hey Rastaman.
I want to make a deal with you.
you live for one month in Zürich in my house, and I live for one month in Whitehorse.
why not?

[rastaman]

Lol why does you're av have the NWT on it hahaha you kill me man. Zurich. My brothers girl if from their and their are 100's of Swiss here and they all say the same think about Zurich and it's not flattering. Plus theirs my 2 cats and my dog.

Because I know Canada. Quebec, Ontario, Yukon, British Columbia, NWT, Nunavut. :)

btw- I hope your 2 cats give the dog hell, everyday! :mrgreen:

[TheRocketeer]

Nunavut eh? That's near where EWs mother used to live. I remember the stories of her falling off the ice mountain and staring polar bears in the eyes from 10 meters. Now she is much closer and thinking about leaving her second husband who is the Canadian that brought her to the Arctic Circle.

Sometimes I think I know more about EWs life than my own! He has so much more family and so many more interesting stories to tell. I think somedays that I should write a book with him containing all the stuff that we have talked about over the years. A book about EW.....actually that is sounding more interesting the more I think about it!

I will have to mention this idea to Gaius. I do not think that EW would want his privacy trampled in that way but maybe a book about the story behind Xerces and how we all got together? Hmm.
