That is correct, and I said encrypted copyrighted media. If you ripped something off the net, it was most likely copyrighted and had embeds anyways so yes, absolutely there will be issues with anything distributed in the wild. The mass media folks have been busy adding drm to even cable specifications... the record companies and other distro's want piracy covered from purchase to eyeballs even at your tv set home theater...anywhere the sellers think you can insert a device has some sort of drm now.
UNfreakingba-lievable ...
Inasmuch that you obviously hate Vista ... I don't want Vista either... It should be noted that a good portion of DRM (digital rights management) that Vista has is to protect media that is encrypted copyrighted outside source, such as anything music, video ... well, actually anything by the recording industry for starters... Technically, MSFT says users not downloading copyrighted encrypted media have nothing to fear about rights.
Of course this is MSFT stating this.
I think this site --> GRC.com's Security Now pages are the best around describing MSFT shenanigans... I am not associated with this site and I very very rarely ever suggest sites except for stocks and info thereof, but this site is informative to the max.
additional edit( I also wish I had a ton of legitimate XP os's because if Vista is as bad as it looks, XP os is going to be horded something fierce.)

So, with all the little hints, are you people saying that Australia is a bigger market for Tfn than USA at this time... I think Tfn succeded in Canada but too bad we have bkmp between us and Tfn.
Why the hell can't Tfn be public!!

OT:: but Ihub wipes out all your past posts and name reference??

OT: In response to the R/S question... from my direct experience in getting reversed to death... most of the events have happened on fridays or the day before a weekend holiday usually with no announcement or a pr after 2:45pm of the day before the reverse. This appears to be a deliberate move on the part of the pinkie CEO's. Perhaps to give them time to do whatever they need do, or to prevent we shareholders from flooding the market trying desperately to dump our shares...
Otc/pink historical have shown over 75% of sub and pennie stock that reverses falls back or even below the original pre reverse price. IMO - I haven't seen small shareholders ever make out with a sub pennie reverse split. Not that it doesn't happen.
I'm more likely to get hit with a meteorite than make out big with a reverse split especially if the old stock doesn't get rolled into the new stock........
S5
OT:: When one changes their name, do they have a choice or do they have to remove their old name all the way back to who knows where?
I don't think a freebie or non mod member can do that.
Just interesting to think about it.
HrHr .. what's up with the CAps On ANd Off….??? I know - it's subliminal hinting.
Bkmp people should try and keep all options open. Sandy did state in a pr that the Pref'ds should be R/S'd. I don't doubt this won't happen soon. Sandy has a history of R/S's … and
has never shied away from R/S commons as well. No clue about what Sandy intends with bkmp common… I don't have maintenance friends in stocks so I won't make unsubstantiated predictions on common shares.
Right now the only to make any gains with Bkmp is selling small pips for small gains which add up.
The PPs isn't making us money on it's own at this time…BUT, if you can survive a small R/S of say 1000 to 1, and manage to have a few hundred grand in shares, sometimes can make good gains with the new jump in price, before it comes back down… BUT IF…(1) you have 100's of thousands after split… and BIG (2) the old stock name is rolled into the new company some way… most of pinks change name and old stock is worthless….this is every day at least in the otc/pinks.
An R/S, as distasteful and damaging to the small shareholders in sub pennies as they are…. can still give you some cash. IF you don't fear it and hide in the sand….
Bkmp holders … never say never !! protect your interests….
the proceeding message was brought to you by S5, no touts, no other board address link… never a exact date,time or pps ever given….. Do your own DD.

It's a great comfort.
S5
Yes. And that would include your sig as well. At least you try hard not to tout that stock though. I guess that's where the fine line gets crossed. Sometimes I just click on certain people or subjects in the message list only to find it's a stock tout that wasn't in the first sentence.
It's hard enough on this board to stay focused and decipher bkmp - Tfn stuff without the noise...

S5
WEBPRODS... you have been spamming too many other stocks on this Bkmp/Tfn board and by advertising your stock site may or may not be Ihub proper rules.
Putting up with the touting is bad enough but combined with your signature that happens to have those stocks on your site is a fine line.
As it appears that your predictions (as anyone else's) are permissible, I respectfully request that you reduce OT touts.
thanks for all you do.

I'm not trying to come off way negative here, but from direct experience at work then at one of my best friends new house set-up.
AT&T incredulously gave the same explanation to my IT dept manager (he was my partner in our league this past summer) AND my friend when very similar network devices went wonky... since it wasn't their equipment (but what was recommended by their installers as the certified devices for AT&T network solutions.....) IT WASN'T THEIR RESPONSIBILITY but the device manufacturer's problem... it couldn't possibly be the AT&T install or owned equipment or lines.
I came away with a not so confident and loving experience with AT&T...
Warning... some peoples experience will differ... maybe for the better-... even.
Sorry, I can't be more helpful.
Good Luck

FF..I knew your into fishing, but didn't know you made your own rods... very cool. I'm in Michigan and do freshwater... Made my own 9 1/2 Steelhead rod, but I managed to make the ugliest buttwrap you ever saw.... I was at a boat show with it (casting contest) and one of the judges looked at it and said beautiful build ... but if your colorblind you really should have someone else pick out the colors.... I couldn't stop laughing for a long time.... It's on my wall because after 30 years it finally succumbed to one last steely..........
S5
BB52.. Most phone companies, wait, I think there is only one company now...at&t... when a tech recommends equipment it usually means that's the stuff they are re-selling to you or have a vendor pay back contract with... It's not always in your best interests. It's always about their bottom line. In my biz (broadcast TV production) the larger companies force the cheapest equipment to the end users within liabilities laws...
It never hurts to do some research and shop around.
S5
I can only think of a couple reasons why you don't see ads as a freebie.... you have all javascript and activeX turned off and or you're using Firefox with adblock.
Otherwise, don't tell admin ...
S5
If you read the bkmp connection backwards like we do with real estate property descriptions ex: 1/4 of 1/4 of ne 1/4 of nw half....
so that would be Private company Tfn is wholly owned by private blackout communications which has a 20% partnership with public Blackout Media Corp. Maybe this might help some with the frustration of figuring bkmp holdings out.
When I look at it this way, I can see the vague dis-connect feeling I get about Bkmp.
Or not.

Sorry, wasn't trying to be smartazz. Actually, I'm usually on top of the malware crap, so I learned something new. You have reason to believe that a 'blank IE addy" virus exists. I believe you. Here is a interesting website to check out, and read the 'security now' shows listing. --> grc.com I'm not afiliated or paid in any way with this site, but it has a driven guy who owns the site.
Read about ActiveX and scripting involvement with virus/spyware as well
..speaking about bloat... the newer quicktime player ads on Ihub are just dragging my connection down terribly. Well, can't complain too much, I'm a freebie.
good luck

Evening Moo. Yes, it's buying on the dips and selling higher. The thing is even small gains add up eventually. As long as a stock has a perceivable pulse, you should be able to make some cash... small gains are better than small losses.
S5
I know it's late, but Moo, what's so funny about making money...?
and you're right... can't prove it one way or another.
well, it is a forum board after all.
S5
I'm just reading your post, and I'm not sure if your just pulling somebody's leg.... If your not, 'blank page' in IE is just that, a way for you to open IE browser without waiting for it to load some overstuffed bloated macroplayer choked site. The blank allows the browser to open in seconds and then you input your website.
On Vista, you may want to find and read some unbiased information about the OS and the DRM impregnated guts of Vista. It's not pretty. Just do a search 'Vista DRM' and you have more than enough to make your decision.

ON Topic response::
Since a number of posters feel the need to be less than benevolent with their postings to myself and others, which include friendly Private Messages as well ... I'll enlighten them for the last time.
(1) It's truly no ones business how much one is invested in Bkmp or any other stock. You can't prove it anyhow.
(2) What trading style one chooses when we buy Bkmp is up to you.
I have made 11,700.00 and some change since I bought in last year and played the dips. That's why we're called traders. I've also taken the opportunity to build a nice stash of bkmp common just in case the good stuff happens. I'm never out of the game. I feel bad for people who hold long without moving a share waiting for the big one... I think many people flip but won't mention it. Your business as well.
(3) I saw the potential in Tfn first thing... even though it's controlled publicly by a holding company. Any time any penny company has a product that is valid (and mma fans in Canada know this) it's worth a gamble.
(4) As far as other posters... you can be mean to me all you want, I'll even defend your right to say it, but I keep my ignore list in my head and it's so much nicer since I don't bother paying attention to pointless noise.
(5) As far as myself being a pointless human being, well, I guess when I go out on volunteer Auxiliary Police patrol tonight as usual, locate a few down and out homeless folks, take them to the nearest warming center and make sure the people get in and fed and have a place tonight, oh, I'm on first name basis with a lot of people there... I'll just go back out and do it again. You know, the useless pointless things myself and other volunteers do every day....
(6) My jeep dealership sure loves the profit I've made on Bkmp and other stock.
(7) I'm going to stick around and play Bkmp until there's nothing left to play.
(8) And finally, my hope for Tfn is to be wildly successful anywhere and that the officers of Bkmp allows us shareholders to share in that success. I've already succeeded well beyond my trading plan on Bkmp.

Charm... it's also a resource hog at the time being...
It chokes my broadband connection at work because I think they have too many conflicting media types trying to load a gillion small frames... not meshed too well...

Dean. I appreciate the OT insert, but your on the wrong board.
Thanks
S5
Never mind, I'm not going to spin the hornets nest again with semantics which are trivial no matter who's right.
But this set-up with the Tfn/Bkmp thing is like building a beautiful built in swimming pool 2 yards over and I'm not allowed to go share in it. Just watch other people play. Drives me loony.
S5
Oh noooooo. Let's not go back in the octagon about this stuff again... Tfn holds nothing... it's majority owned by BOC, which has a 20% partnership with Bkmp, Bkmp being the only public entity which I own stock in. period... Tfn is obviously the only interest with a snowman's chance in Aruba of actually becoming a market product worthy of a future-be it Canada or US or China....
S5
Anal... minor typo perhaps
"is supposed to tie together all the TFN holdings. THAT should be"
I think you meant Bkmp? ..
S5
Dspetry ... everybody knows that, but that's not reality on many cult boards, and that-everybody knows as well.
It would be an extremely boring site if that was perfect.
That's why OT will never go away, nor should it. People are not one dimensional and need to have some room to be non rigid.
I think Ihub would lose big bucks from bail outs if it went completely OT forbidden. That's why OT is still here, I think, because it works within reason. If it didn't it would have been changed long ago. It perhaps drives admin nuts, but maybe the loss possible outweighs the aggravation.
Just my input...
S5
OT:: Kb... Denise is nice... did you do any work with photoshop on her......whew

I doubt this board would have a effect, but Cnes did issue a kind of cease request pr asking shareholders to not contact any companies doing business with Cnes. It's debatable weather phone calls can really make a difference, but perhaps there is some legitimacy to this pr, if Cnes is real close to a real deal, I sure don't want to be blamed for souring the deal...
That's if shareholders can be that annoying in the first place.

?question? ... is a tos report from the message box anonymous?

Who cares Anal, your spamming a bkmp board.
Keep it on topic please.

cool...
(1) Not on this planet yet!
(2) bkmpzz...? brokers representation of bkmpp?
(3) 50 million, is that all you got? that's a bummer, everyone else has billions...
(4) Nothing. Why? Because you can't do anything with them at this time. Maybe in our lifetime or bkmp holding corp's lifetime.
