	<description>EBB is the ebiquity research group\\\'s blog at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC).  We focus on technologies that facilitate the design, implementation and control of distributed, intelligent information systems -- mobile and pervasive computing, ad hoc networking, multiagent systems, knowledge representation and reasoning, and the semantic web.  As the tides of technology ebb and flow, we hope the good ideas wash up on our beach and the bad ones drift back out to sea.</description>

		<description>The story shows how to unprotect drm from protected wmv, wma, m4p, m4v, m4a, aac files and convert to unprotected WMV, MP4, MP3, WMA or any video and audio formats you like, such as AVI, MPEG, MOV, 3GP, m4a, aac, wmv, ogg, wav... 
It&#039;s easy and a must do operation, folks!

Point 1: I&#039;ve purchased and downloaded some wmv videos, which is drm protected - so I cant copy them to MP3 player and my wifes htc diamond OR ANY DEVICES? I was shocked!!! #%#$%!!
WHY this happens?
So found a way - drmbuster (drmbuster.com, &lt;a&gt;drmbuster.com&lt;/a&gt;) - it converts my wmv (and avi actually) directly to my iPod.
found another software:drmremoval - seems to works slowly, but perhaps I miss smth.

Point 2: 
Can&#039;t copy to my iphone avi from my hard disk! I own that avi (movie maker production :) ) and I own the iPhone! So what&amp;!. I can&#039;t - I get a message: &quot;cannot be imported because it does not appear to be a valid exported file&quot;... ###ing limitation.
I was amazed, but drmbuster did this job for me too. It even recompressed video to iphone screen size - so I don&#039;t have to copy all 900mbytes to devices. Just 200!!

The program is capable to convert any format I had on my hard drive  - I even dragged there my while entertainment hard drive (I use different ones for windows and entertainment, to not loose valuable video), and it reconverted everithing, that looks like a video or sound.
fortunately, I hadn&#039;t iphone conneted, otherwise it may be fully fill its memory!
Really, extremely easy to use piece of software - napster converter, itunes converter.

I am a big fun of skins and skinned software! I contacted their support, and was given an answer - If you gather some more users who desires this - we will implement for you! 
What do you think juys, let&#039;s ask them?
Please....</description>

		<description>A site for which I volunteer was recently swamped with rapid spam, possibly because someone specifically tuned a spambot to hit the site at its vulnerabilites. Adding in recaptcha (http://recaptcha.net/) helped the site and helps nonprofit book scanning as well.</description>
