Name one rule I broke and I'll accept the hobbling.

In reply to this comment by dag:
You seem to be intent on doing some damage. Hobbled until we figure this one out.

So my time with Phoebe is just between her and me?

Hi Burdy- we don't have an opt-out method for CB. Though we also don't have a method to track how long you, personally, have been viewing something.

Hi dag!
I have a question for you ...
Chartbeat weirds me out. I hate the idea of someone knowing how long I am at a certain page etc.
Is there some way I can exclude myself from it?

Thanks daggio!

Hmm, I thought MSNBC was on the approve list as an NBC variant- I've forwarded this to Lucky- as I'm not exactly sure.

Hey dag, I've been trying to post some videos from msnbc.com with no luck - it says that the embed codes are invalid. I'm guessing it's because it's not approved and I'm not privileged enough... Would that be right? Is there any way I can get 'em posted? Here's an example of an embed code:

<object width="420" height="245" id="msnbc3a9dd3"><param name="movie" value="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32545640" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=10,0,0,0"><param name="FlashVars" value="launch=35190135&width=420&height=245"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="wmode" value="opaque" /><embed name="msnbc3a9dd3" src="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32545640" width="420" height="245" FlashVars="launch=35190135&width=420&height=245" allowscriptaccess="always" allowFullScreen="true" wmode="opaque" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"></embed></object><p style="font-size:11px; font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #999; margin-top: 5px; background: transparent; text-align: center; width: 420px;">Visit msnbc.com for <a rel="nofollow" style="text-decoration:none !important; border-bottom: 1px dotted #999 !important; font-weight:normal !important; height: 13px; color:#5799DB !important;" href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com">breaking news</a>, <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3032507" style="text-decoration:none !important; border-bottom: 1px dotted #999 !important; font-weight:normal !important; height: 13px; color:#5799DB !important;">world news</a>, and <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3032072" style="text-decoration:none !important; border-bottom: 1px dotted #999 !important; font-weight:normal !important; height: 13px; color:#5799DB !important;">news about the economy</a></p>

The embed that I pasted to the message was the same one I pasted to the submit form. Longde suggested that my "rank" may not be high enough to submit it. I had the same issue trying to submit the PeeWee iPad video, but it worked fine for him.

If it is a permission issue then I would rather the submit form say "you do not have permission to post this" rather than "the embed appears to be invalid". I spent over an hour trying to figure out what was wrong with that PeeWee iPad embed yesterday.

I just tried it and it worked fine for me:

Make sure that you've got a complete copy of the embed- if it's still not working for you, we'll escalate to Lucky.

Cheers

You're welcome from bareboards2. There was a bb1 but my original membership was a casualty when something went wrong some months back. I was not -- nor am I yet -- computer savvy enough to have restored my original name. [Heck, I can't even figure out how to answer your comment on my profile page. Jeesh.]

So I just started a new one.

I don't know how long I have been visiting this site, but I do enjoy it tremendously. Intelligent. A minimum of trash talk. Can't stand the trash talk.

Anyway, with the economy the way it is, I thought it was time for me to throw some love your way.

Keep up the good work, and thanks for creating such a smart community.

Hey Dag,
I have a hard drive that was infected by malware at statcntr.com on 1-6-2010.
You mentioned you would like a copy of the file.
I'm not sure if I know how to do that, but with some coaching I may be able to get it to you if you are still interested.
The infected hard drive is external to my current pc which shows no sign of the malware infection.

let me know

Well, here's what I know:

I've contacted our ad networks to see if they had any info about it - neither claim any knowledge and say it's not part of their inventory.

I've used my VPN to become US-based and tried about 40 reloads with Chrome- but can't make it happen.

StatCntr.com seems to be triggering on BoingBoing and TweetMeme as well:
http://search.twitter.com/search?q=statcntr.com

Still looking into it- if anybody gets it and manages to snag the source code that is around it- we'd love to have a look.

Thanks

Argh, there's a spammer spamming my profile and posts, how does one ban someone? I thought we just did a * ban on their profile?
