This has to be one of the coolest things I have seen this year on HN; last year it was the "endless acid banger".
It's tempting to let feature-creep make this bigger, but other than a few UX tweaks, it's perfect the way it is.
Then again, is there is anything I could think of for version 2.0 it would be satellite imagery from the virtual balloon (depending if Google maps allows that in their API)
Most of it comes from a philosophical perspective, rather than a technical one. In many forms, viruses usually find their way in from software vulnerabilities, leaving deliberately (albeit unknowingly) installing in the minority. With the open source/free software development cycle, it should be possible to eliminate most avenues of vulnerability.
So in short, the questions we should be asking are:
1. How do viruses find their ways in?
2. And, what can be done (as a user or developer) to prevent that?
These are obvious, I know, and the software devs for Windows aren't deliberately writing insecure software, but these questions are ones better seen from a behavioural point of view.
Is it can be opened with a key, there's nothing stopping something else emulating that key - even if resorting to brute force until the key pattern matches.
By the look of it, what this reply is saying is how point 7 describes the negating qualities of "but", while the point immediately following it uses the said word.
xdude.com - flash site. Even though it was small by today's standards, it had some pretty handy info for MIDI and sound processing.
Winamp.com (from the 2.x days) was also full of useful stuff. The plugin architecture meant that you could make Winamp2 do just about anything with av files. Including DJ'ing and video playlists.
