Opposing Answer

No. Yahoo clearly states in the Terms of Serice that they will not sell or use your information, and your IP, which is the way you get most viruses, is personal information so if yahoo was to give you a virus then you could sue them for like $5,000 but there also is a chance that yahoo has the copyright access to use games that other sites released which may contain viruses. I hope that I helped, and if so do me the favor and click "Reccomend pinkXjellocreature" aat the bottom of the screen. Thanks a bunch.

If a person already has lots of computer games and still buys more is he sinning?

If they get in the way of your time and fellowship with God they could be considered Idols. Just be careful not to put them before God. We all fall in to Idol worship of some sort sometime. To much T.V., To much attention to our car, House , etc. We have too many toys and other distractions on this earth and Satan will use them to his advantage. We have to try to put God first in our lives then he will bless us with much more than this world could ever offer. It is a fact that the more we focus on him the less importance worldly things possess. Matthew Ch. 6 verse 33.

No. It's not listed as Sin in the Bible. But maybe Yes, by excess..

What is the shape of a comet?

While we don't normally think of the Sun itself having an orbit, of course it DOES. Nothing is standing still; the force of gravity assures that. if the Sun and our solar system weren't moving, then the gravitational attraction between the Sun and the rest of the Milky Way galaxy would pull our solar system toward the center of the galaxy, and this isn't happening.

The Sun, with our solar system in tow, orbits the center of the Milky Way galaxy, with each orbit taking about 200 million years. We figure that the Earth and our solar system are about 5 billion years old, so it has made about 25 orbits around the galactic center. So in Galactic Years, our Sun is only 25; it's still young! The SHAPE of the orbit is almost certainly an ellipse.

What were the Trojan Gods?

Troy was one of the Greek States, so they worshiped the same gods as the Athenians, Spartans, and all of those other people did. The 12 Olympians, and then the minor gods and goddesses. The Trojan War was started because of the minor goddess of Chaos, Eris, when she wasn't invited to a party, and got revenge by throwing a golden apple bearing the words "To the Fairest" in between Aphrodite, goddess of love, Athena, goddess of Wisdom, and Hera, queen of the gods. They argued over who it was meant for, until Zeus decided that this prince guy named Paris would get to choose who got it. Athena offered wisdom, Hera offered all of Asia Minor, and Aphrodite, Helena, the most beautiful princess in the world. He took up the last offer, no duh, and then the Trojans kidnapped her for him, then her dad, this super-major kind dude, got really angry and started attacking the Trojans to get her back.

What are some consequences of hacking?

being jailed

need to pay a fine

lose you're rights to use a computer

Answer

In my opinion hacking is gaining access to a system and its servers or banks of information. There are are two types of hacking illegal and legal. Illegal is when you hack without a person's permission. Legal hacking is obtaining a person systems legally. The consequences of illegal hacking are thousands of dollars in fines, imprisonment, and the seizure of your computer.

Answer

Hacking is to know and understand how systems work. Cracking is doing harm with theses skills.

If searching for consequences of cracking then: Well, when detected... : probably, the crackers IP-adress is going to be traced and disabled acces to internet for a while. Than, when the cracking was real seriously, (like cracking government systems and such) the crackers PC, and thus the crackers location is located, and the cracker gets caught.

Answer

In Pennsylvania hacking is illegal. Hacking is known as "unlawful use of computer and other computer crimes - 18 Pa. Cons. Stat. § 7611" which is a third degree felony. Use of force for the protection of property - 18 Pa. Cons. Stat. § 507(c)Limitations on justifiable use of force (4)(ii)(B) such force is necessary to prevent the commission of a felony in the dwelling.

What is the license number for Kaspersky antivirus?

Where Is Your Serial NumberThe serial number would either be on the back of the CD case or within the documentation that came with your software when you purchased it. You will know it is the serial number because it is a mix of numbers and/or letters separated by dashes, usually 20 characters long. Install Without Serial NumberYou can't install this software without the serial number. Follow the on screen instructions during installation. One of the instructions will come up asking you to enter the serial number - put it into the white boxes - and the installation will continue. You can't use the software without installing it. What To Do If You've Lost YoursContact costumer services at Kaspersky by mail, email, or phone. They will probably need proof of purchase such as original receipt, bar code on package, or some other form of identification. They will instruct you on what is needed and will then give you a new serial number if necessary.

See the related link for their contact information.

More InfoDownloading proprietary software is illegal (except for trials). This is called piracy. Using serial numbers that you did not purchase is also illegal, even if you purchased the software and lost your serial number (see above for obtaining a new one in this case). It is also illegal to use key generators (keygens) which provide serial numbers as well as cracks to bypass expired time trials or entering a serial number and no-CD cracks which enable you to use the software without the original purchased CD for the software.

WikiAnswers will not provide serial numbers or links to serial numbers. We will also not provide information or links on where to obtain pirated software, serial numbers, keygens, or cracks. If you are caught doing any of these, you may be blocked from using WikiAnswers as well as reported to the proper officials and/or the company who created the software.
