It took some hacking, but it's done. That's all. Ecstatic.

Is the point that your using firefox at school? My old college has Firefox on the system. I believe my uni does too. Even then I also believe there is a portable version for use from a flash drive, so it doesn't even need to be installed.

Also, I've got Oblivion. I feel that's a far greater achievement. I hadn't realised until I started it earlier today, just how amazing Oblivion really is.

I say hello to you and also to Kate.


cheers to you both,

Sorry, I was just excited. This means that I'll never have to look at Internet Explorer ever again, apart from rare Windows Updates.

Firefox isn't something the school was going to install, and they made it nearly impossible to achieve that - yet, now, me and my friend Nathan are firefoxing at school, with Ad Block Plus, and all manner of cool extensions.

I'm happy. Sorry, this should have been a blog entry, maybe... And perhaps didn't even need me to bother posting. But, hey, I wanted to test out my Firefox, and I'm just really glad to have got it working.

Cheers, hyrule

Hey, where it comes to open source, I agree on two points - the nerd side, and the political side too.

I dont plan on touching their(the schools) computers as much as I would have. I got in trouble to "allegedly" putting a virus on the server(along with 10 other kids). And now my login account is red flagged, if i do anything else I get suspended for like 5-10 days.

Put a virus on a school computer??? Done that. Take advantage of flaws in the school network to bypass security features??? Done that as well. Put extra software on the school computers??? Done that. Put on software which is the school isn't licensed for??? I did that too, namely with Starcraft and Worms.

Since those days at secondary school, I always try to not to use the school computers too much. I don't want to get into trouble about software and taking advantage of exploits in places where I actually care about being respected (or more feel that the teachers would be willing to respect me).
