I was burglarized today--they broke in while I was at work. They took lots of stuff from my living room and garage. They ransacked all of my house going through drawers and cabinets. It sucks, but it could have been worse.<p>Here is the weird thing, my office room while having been thoroughly searched still contains all of the electronics. The computer (a really good gaming machine), dual monitors (large), keyboard, mouse are all still here.<p>Also, my computer was on and I don't have a lock screen on it (I live alone and don't do any work from home on it--though I regret now that it didn't have the lock-screen activated).<p>So I'm feeling super paranoid. I'm in the process of updating all my site passwords (mostly managed by lastpass). But I'm concerned some kind of keysniffer or other invasive software could have been installed.<p>It seems unlikely--but this room remains too intact for it not to be suspicious.<p>I'm on win7, SP1. What are some good (trustworthy) tools I can scan my computer with.<p>Does anyone know of any concerns or precautions I should take, short of reformatting (which now that I think about it sounds really good).<p>Thanks in advance.

As of IOS6, webkit browsers (safari,chrome) will crash when you select a value on a select box that contain a size attribute and optgroup elements.

To reproduce this bug, have an html page with the following html (and select an option from the box):

<select size="2"> <optgroup> <option>Crash Me</option> </optgroup> </select>

Does any one know the details of why SOPA legislation is needed? What is it about the DMCA legislation that isn't enough to fight piracy?

I'm asking to better understand the underlying problem statement. We all keep talking about how SOPA will destroy the internet and that we need to stop it immediately. I think the best way to make that happen is to come up with an alternate solution that will improve the position of copyright holders without stifling innovation or leading towards a censored internet. I'm not talking about a compromise, I'm talking about genuinely trying to solve a problem.

To do that, we need to know what the problem is--beyond a vague statement of "piracy on the internet".

So, what is it about the DMCA legislation that they've already put through that isn't getting the job done? What are the failings of the legislation that prevent it from working? It would also be helpful to know not just how it's failing copyright holders but also consumers--since it seems as a whole we are generally against it too.

I'm sincerely asking, this isn't rhetorical or anything. I'm hoping anyone that is(has been) seriously following DMCA/SOPA/PROTECTIP can provide insight on. If there are actually supporters of SOPA here, or if not SOPA itself more legislation focused on digital content and piracy, what explicitly are they looking for.
