Might try adding the specific hostnames to the /etc/hosts file and then
disabling name server lookups. That might be an issue with the
malicious website protection in Firefox.

Scrub that idea. It would break many sites as a lot tend to have items
spread over a wide variety of servers.

They say that where?

Might work if you are only specific for one application, like banking
software. That should not be too much. And if they are pulling things
from too many servers and sites, then there is an issue with their
security anyway.

I meant that they were pulling things in from sites they control, but
ones you wouldn't know about until you actually browse their site and
look at just where everything came from. That wouldn't be too bad but
you'd still have the issue of breaking things until you could add the
unknown hosts to /etc/hosts.

No idea. I would say not to hold your breath.

Is there any further ppc support whatsoever?

I mean if I simply update what I have, it will at least rise to the
most recent opensuse ppc releases of those packages, right?

Knock-knock.
Who's there?
Under the Patriot Act, we don't have to tell you that.

Not planned at this moment as far as I know.

You could try, but I have no idea what the latest is.

Yes, but as long as you do not use anything "executable" (including
macro's in Word etc. file) from the hard disk, the mal-ware will
be erased when you switch of the system, it cannot infect the CD
and the "ramdisk fs" is pure temporary.

The problem, of course, is that mostly you WILL need stuf from
the hard disk, so will have to mount it and then that disk gets
vulnerable again.

Build and burn your own little custom banking Linux distro for use only
with your online bank...be sure its based on Ubuntu, you could call it

Translated via Google:
"c't Bankix is a derivative of Ubuntu Live Linux operating system that
was designed specifically for secure online banking, and from CD or USB
stick is working."

All well, but does it have as nice a background during boot as mine? I
don't think so.

Not this one, but it would not be too hard to do it. Mmm. A dedicated
ISO to watch pr0n.

Just to make sure: Are we talking about boobies here or perhaps gannets?
