If you have a good firewall,I can't see how it could get past you without knowing it.

Just saw this issue on another forum,
seems almost all SocketA DDR mobo[should be mofo] manufacturers are adopting Phoenix as their longlost kiddie.

Except, so far, Asus and Iwill.

I FEEL A BOYCOTT COMING ON

With TV you trade. What about the movie theatre.. I payed to go watch ads for a fvckin half hour? NO WAY!!! And it's not like you can turn the damn channel either.

The funny thing is, if you go to the cheap $4 theatres there's like NO advertising. And personally, i like those theatres way better anyways, i guess cuz they were state of the art when i was a kid.

About the bios, ya that's a scary thought, sure it could CLAIM to be deactivated but who knows what it's REALLY doing. I guess the only way to know for SURE is to get a hardware router/firewall and sniff what's being sent out.

The only company to get away with something that sneaky would be m$corp
