    No. Linux doesn't really use file extensions, it uses mime types. Though KDE, and possibly others make limited use of them.

    That's kinda like saying, do you support driving fast...I think it's one of those things like you know it's wrong and you shouldn't be doing it, but hey, you can get away with it most of the time.

    You probably can if you're running Windows. *Points at gif & jpeg buffer overflow exploits*

    I support piracy, why not?

    I am not going to pay €60 for some videogame. There is some stupid anti-piracy organisation in my country that claims games only cost like €10. This is true, but you would have to wait 2 years for a game to drop to that price. You can see here how they use stupid excususes to try to 'justify' the fact that videogames are way too expensive.

    Same goes for music.

    *cough* Filesharing is illegal and should never be encouraged.

    However *cough* on a completely unrelated note, BISS has a handy IP blocker and a BlockList Manager with which you can pick out the IP lists you want and with a little study on how they both work, you can export those lists to your IP blocker. Make sure your IP blocker is actually using the list file (.txt extension) that your Blocklist Manager is exporting to. This Blocklist Manager gets you around tens of thousands of IP's to block, split up into different IP list sources, depending on what you want to block and allow, which is much more than *cough* what the K++ blocker gives. NOT that I support filesharing, which is ILLEGAL, but just as an example for comparison.

    This IP blocking can *cough* be used to block undesired IP's, including spyware, hijacked IP's, nearly every proxy out there (because, ahem, "hackers", could be using proxies, y'know ... and perhaps, ah, people overly inquisitive about, ah, what you do online), etc.

    THIS IS PURELY FOR SECURITY AND USING IT TO GET OUT OF ANTI-PIRACY DETECTION IS EVIL AND POSSIBLY ILLEGAL.

    But *cough* feel free to use it for other *cough* purposes, at your own personal risk.

    False. I've already addressed this.
