If you don't have a wallet on you computer, which also has "some weird progs on it that I don't trust", why are you afraid to run this? One more untrusted program won't change anything. whatever is on it has been there from pre Bitcoin days, this is specifically Btc linked & while I'm sure it is fine or you'd be called out fast, I'm just following best practice here

You don't have to do it to get reasonable security - Windows is pretty secure if you patch it regularly.
Just don't work under Administrator account, like you wouldn't work under root on *nix.
Make sure only one user account is able to access the Bitcoin folder and that's the account the Bitcoin client runs under.
I am sure there must be some topics here covering it...
As I said this comp was second hand over 10 years ago, it came with Windows but that could have been a pirate copy, it also seems to have some weird progs on it that I don't trust & can't see how to remove, you are assuming more knowledge than I have - I've never even heard of *nix & anyway my new (& first) Mac is ordered - I'll start Bitcoin client & wallet then, It's well within my risk tollerance to use Mt.Gox as my wallet atm & much safer than keeping a wallet on my present comp

To all those people who are concerned that this might be a walet.dat stealing virus:
no offense, but if you don't know how to secure your wallet, what are you doing using BitCoin in the first place?
personally I don't wish to use my time to arrange that atm, bootable uboxo (sp yes I know) or whatever on pen drive & am in any case waiting for a new Mac comp that I've just ordered to have a totally clean system to start getting in to that from, my present Windows one is over 10 years old & was second hand, I have a lot of Btc & $ with Mt.Gox with their Yubi key & Lastpass pro with Yubi key - that's perfectly secure enough & less hassel for a non tech newbie like me atm edit to add: I do know how to do it or at least have all the info available to do so that I've researched over the last 3 months, I just choose to use Mt.Gox atm & not download anything from Bitcoin forums or sites that hasn't been vetted first, others may just be intested in monitering the Btc price before starting with Bitcoins but like still to know that what's downloaded is kosher before doing so

This is a ridiculous claim. I make thousands of dollars EVERY WEEK simply by playing the stock market, not to mention the fortune I will make on bitcoin. I'm obviously not going to disclose my methods ( ), but I can assure you that it has nothing to do with "random chance". Go into any bookshop and you wil find many books on how to invest... I myself am thinking of writing one. Why would there be so many books on this topic it if it wasn't possible? There are two sorts of people... Smart guys, who know the system after years of study. And then there's the primitive guys that don't quite follow what's going on. They look at the economy, but it is too complicated for them, so they just think everything happens randomly... You "make thousands of dollars EVERY WEEK simply by playing the stock market" so assuming as you're so onto a sure thing you would naturaly be also reinvest nearly all your gains & are therefor are getting exponential returns, soon you will own the whole world or perhaps it's just not that simple or scaleable how many $ thousands per week on average do you make & from risking or playing with just how much capital, without this info & more then "This is a ridiculous claim"

25th Nov, new moon - good choice for starting a new venture, 4th partial solar eclipse of a series - hopefully helps in eclipsing the NY bitcon pump & dump fiasco, black Friday sales in the US if I'm not mistaken - Apple's yearly discount window - all in all = good vibes, I hope to be there & agreed with above post, why not also list conf 3 day passes for those who prefer to make their own accom arrangemnts (no star to 5 star, or like me with www.airbnb.com - late Nov isn't peak seasson)

start a thread with your trades posted as you make them, including the stop losses etc & everyone can clearly see you beat the market, not only that they will soon mirror your trades to your advantage
all the rest is just talk talk

fxd that for you Even if they have to be abused for only 1.88 bitcoins, they are not in an economic position to refuse...At that time i customarily tipped 3.76 btc. In this case, I gave him only 2.63 btc. On the other hand I have paid as much as 7.52 btc for a hottie who changed my religion. (@ 30 Thai bhat to the $ & $8.87 per btc)

last week I used their money transfer service XE-Trade to send money from GBP in the UK to € in Spain & to $ in the US, they were great for this with fantastic personal service over the phone & easy to set it all up via Internet, I shall ask them to look in to also taking/sending BTC deposits as part of their currency exchange & transfer services offered & will let you know their response

Now, 2 1/2 months of the long, slow slide.Since the bubble popped in June, we've had 2 1/2 months of long, slow slide. The pattern is clear enough. There is no "crash". There is no "rally". There is just some noise on top of a long term drop of about 20% per month. There's a lot of volatility because the market is thin relative to the number of Bitcoins outstanding. Any big trade can disrupt the market. But it comes back to the long, slow slide trend line each time. Each time there's a drop, some recovery follows. Each peak, though. has been consistently lower than the previous one. This is normal post-bubble behavior. Many people here seem to be in denial about this. [/quote +1 the mid Aug boost being due to the bitcon no new news hype pump & dump, now low volumes ticking up - for a tall fall, perhaps soon as...

Once it is listed on the charity's website, Bruce will send out a press release to all the media contacts he has. It should make major news headlines as well!
If you think this is a good idea, please send your Bitcoins to: 1CEmUakCaR71BmELWJPg72QRYzUqEddNm6
Please let us know if you have any additional ideas on how to make this plan even better.
um, how about perhaps not to use 'Bruce & all the media contacts he has' - not from the BitCon pump & dump site: http://bitcoinme.com/index.php/bitcon-2011/Wall to Wall Major Global Media
Some of the media outlets who have said they will be here include:
CNN International Al Jazeera English Blomberg Television Wall Street Journal The New York Observer BusinessWeek Wired Magazine SmarterMoney NPR Forbes Fortune CNN / Money The Atlantic Radio Australia Freedomain RadioWas there even a single peep from any of these? Only hype & BS brought to you by 1 or 2 simply awful 13 year old child posters from Pattaya & their pedo bears

firsts that I'm curious to see:
first person that has a tattoo of a private code on them can be in QR also, suppose in a private place, or tats of public &/or private code on different body parts or 2 peeps that have one code each
first bribe paid in BTC, first blackmail demanded in BTC, first person sent to jail whilst conducting business in BTC, first offshore bank to offer anonymous BTC accounts, first TV & film that features BTC in the plot

After seeing this today about some nutter/s tampering with store products: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/healthnews/8726461/Complete-recall-of-Nurofen-Plus-pills.htmlI wondered if there would be soon a film script with either blackmail demands or bribes being requested in BTC as it allows for the reciept of funds without the risky physical pick up link & then how would one go about laundering them so that they could be withdrawn through an exchange, assuming one didn't want the hassel of buying SR drugs with them & reselling As a film script it could work well with the investigaters chasing down a nerdy ne'er–do–well & in rl as secret Swiss etc bank accounts are being outed increasingly these days if BTC may become a hidden parking of choice when interest rates are next to nothing, goodbye inheritance tax

I believe in free speech and I abhor censorship.
At the same time...
It so saddens me to see the degradation.... nearly to the point of destruction.... of these forums.... by the concerted efforts of 1 or 2 children (from somethingaweful.com) who think it's humorous to pretend to be adults... with the sole intent of aggravating people... and disrupting real conversation... among real adults.
It's simply vandalism of these forums by children.... and it is sad.
All we hear is radio ga ga. Radio goo goo. my peepee go wheee! just in case your paranoica included me, for the record my DOB is in 1955 & I'm nothing what so ever to do with SA.com, I put a lot of money in to BTC because I believe it's great, I just cashed it all out at a modest loss just from your recent goings on - btw your bitcon '12 locs have hustler writ large all over them, gl with that ~ kiddo

I'd say that is due to pre Bitcon hype as many speculated & bought in at around $11.2 early last week
Quote from: Bruce Wagner on 14 August 2011, 13:46:13 And the ANNOUNCEMENTS that are going to happen on Saturday..... The Bitcoin World will be a-buzz.....
We decided for sure last night. OnlyOneTV will be making a HUGE HUGE HUGE announcement at the Conference. One you're all gonna be VERY excited about... when you hear it. I can't say now. It's a surprise. But I will say it during my opening speech on Saturday morning. :-)
Actually, we'll be announcing another super exciting thing at the Conference too. I'm not really sure which one more people will be excited about. Probably Both. Both of these things will change the Bitcoin world immediately!
Oh, and those are only my OWN announcements... I'm also privy to some major announcements to be made at the Conference by major vendors also. They're gonna Rock your World too!!
& today we have:

...
As for the two big announcements I had.... I suppose I should have said what happened. One of them got tabled. I decided, after getting more and more feedback on the idea... that I should postpone announcing it. It's just too big.... and too risky... for the moment. But that idea might come back. We'll see.
The other --- second --- big announcement was... three more Conferences.... and a World Cruise. Personally, I think that IS HUGE. Don't you? ( Please only answer if you attended this Conference.... so you have some real world frame of reference. )
...
peeps are now seeing a classic pump & dump so cutting their losses exit & maybe for ever, thanks to the above

Nope I don't think this is in the slightest bit HUGE more like totally LAME & re first para about bloody time to fes up to that pump & dump crap, btw I just sold my full holdings of BTC at a few % loss which is np as I'll buy back in when they continue to tank to mining costs or under mostly because of this fiasco 'Only peeps who were at the conference are able to comment' lol - well bollocks to that Commander BS hyper drive
