Not the message board to discuss that.

Oh you mean the software that finds spyware/malware(what this stuff is called).

So, do you think when the authorities came for him he protested "But I'm a journalist!" like Alycia did?!

No he won't.

Just because the information is salacious doesn't mean Dan isn't responsible for anything. You have to prove to me that Dan and Larry conspired together to trash Alycia, and well... I don't think Dan is that kind of person.

IMO, Dan was doing his job... he's the gossip columnist. If Alycia's own co-worker and co-anchor is calling you telling you about her dirty laundry--would you NOT consider passing that on to the editor? Even if Larry told Dan he has her email... is it Dan's job to go into "how did you get into her email? Did she give you the password or did you hack her account?" Dan is working on the equivalent of the infamous Page Six. And I've seen much dirtier stuff printed on those pages of the NYP than I've seen at the DN.

I think Larry simply just copied Aycia's email and then pasted it into his own account and sent it off to Dan.

I've emailed Dan plenty of times. He's not evil like you suggest.

Gross wrote in an e-mail: "I don't discuss whether anyone is or is not a source of mine."

How awkward that must be to have to write about your coworker. Gross will be out with the trash like Mendte in no time. He'll be a laughing stock after this.

Why would you want to sleep with Alycia after Chris Booker had her?


Tainted goods...

I should also add that Larry is no Chuck Scarborough.

Another reason not to use Windows. There are keyloggers for Mac but hacking a Mac/Unix/Linux box by just sitting in front of the computer is actually quite hard. If it's a community PC, you'd still have network accounts, and even then you can lock up a Mac or Linux machine up quite well so crap like this is virtually impossible to do.

On Mac or Linux (Mac OSX is a derivative of BSD Unix)... the only way you could easily tamper with the computer if you were physically in front of it, would be to grab a screwdriver, take the hard drive out, plug it into another computer and modify the startup scripts to bypass security, then remount the drive back into the chassis of the original machine... something he wouldn't be able to do at work unnoticed.

An administrator would never give peons in a company like Mendte the root account, so he wouldn't be able to touch Alycia's stuff when she logs on, even if he borked the machine all to hell.

You know I wonder if Mendte was spying on other people at the station? Could have been a good way to get leverage on the boss.
And another thing. Lane is rumored to have had a few affairs with some heavy hitters. You thing some of that pillow talk got e-mailed? Mendte could have had a field day with that stuff.

I guess Larry could get back to stand up comedy. Apparently his bit was "How come?"
Here is a video of him getting tortured at the dentist's office.
