Clipboard Secrets

Are you aware of the secrets that your clipboard contains? I don't think that these people were... (Unsuspecting surfers with bad security settings can give away a wealth of information.)

HBO Copy Protection

The only way around HBO copy protection I have been able to find is to just bypass Media Center altogether and use the "capture video" feature in Sonic MyDVD for an mpeg file that will burn to a DVD (two hour-long shows per disk) and play on any player. For a dvr.ms file that refuses to burn directly in Media Center (copy protection again) use Windows Explorer to find the file, then right-click and select 'burn to DVD'. This defaults to Sonic Record Now, and for some reason seems to bypass whatever makes Media Center (or Sonic MyDVD) refuse to open the file. I get a DVD that will only play on the Media Center computer, but at least it enables me to store movies I want to keep on removable media rather than the hard drive. This only works for movies 2 hours or less in length.

(i'm telling on you)
