    All the publicity is about the Windows version. The question is where is the Linux version hiding?

    Wasn't she a good little Communist back then and member of all the approved state organisations? :) It is not the software that has been detected that is the problem. It is the as yet undetected software. I'm not sure that it really has had much of an effect on relations as the targets and the intelligence gathered have not been revealed.

    I don't think you'd much of an option. You either joined, or you didn't get into university.

    I'm sure there's plenty of undetected software of various origins running quietly away snooping on us right now.

    Bloody phone corrected Regin to Region :p

    That's funny. I read the thread title as 'Religion virus - nation state developed - Ireland badly hit'...

    Fingal County Council are certainly not competent to be making decisions about the most important piece of infrastructure on the island. They need to stick to badly designed cycle lanes and deciding on whether Mrs Murphy can have her kitchen extension.

    Load of nonsense press release masquerading as an article, the El Reg of old would have torn it to shreds.

    Whats with the spaces in the URL?

    And what the hell happened to El Reg? Typo in paragragh 2, and other mistakes in the article and a mostly meh article.

    "Tips and corrections" - Is this a draft perhaps?

    Seems they are banned, but to combat spam, user's with less than 50 posts can't post links.
