Offline backup of DropBox data, is it possible?

Ideally I would like to buy the DVDs (or other storage medium) with all my data.

I just asked this on DropBox contact us form :

Anonymous Vulnerability Reporting Service

Is there an Anonymous Vulnerability Reporting Service out there?

Basically one where it is possible to report a vulnerability on a website without worrying about the other side throwing a tantrum and accusing the messenger with 'malicious hacking'?

It is a sad state of our industry that this is needed, but with the current computer criminal laws making all internet users a potential criminal, it is too risky to put a carrer in a the hands of the company that created the vulnerable product or service.

Ideally this service would allow:

Website monitoring services?

I'm looking for a website monitoring service (for a couple TeamMentor live sites) that provides the following:

• Uptime (site is up/down)
• Performance stats (page loads)
• Broken pages/links
• GUI still looks the same (this is a visual check, not a code one)
• Transaction checks (for example 'login sequence' and 'article viewing')
• Content changes (ideally with detection of injected malicious code)
• Web/SaaS based solution
• API to trigger and consume results
• Solution based on Unit tests (where the checks are scripted and easily modified/customized) - but I don't think such service exists today :)

Any recommendations or personal accounts/horror-stories?

Is there a way to get email alerts on Reddit activity

I really like reddit and its threaded discusion model, but what I'm really missing is an email alert every time there is a post or comment on a couple subreddits that I follow.

I know that there are a bunch of ways the reddit data can be consumed (for example http://www.reddit.com/r/owasp/.json ), but I find that at the moment I miss a number of threads and replies that I care about, due to the lack of an email alert (even if once a day)

For example, the GitHub issues is working really well for TeamMentor (https://github.com/TeamMentor/Master/issues) because:

• I get an email on new issues or comments
• If I reply to the email, the message is posted to the correct issue and
• Users that add issues comments, receive the email updates on the issues submitted (if they 'watch' the thread)
• I can manage my emails faster than I can manage my reddit subscriptions

If only I could achieve the same with Redit, Reddit's value and usability (to me) would increase dramatically.

Btw, the reddit 'message' center is already a good help (although it only seems to show the comments on threads I start or comments I made), so maybe there is a way to expand its coverage and enable auto-emailing.

I'm looking for a C# Script that will find an open file handle in Windows

It's kinda crazy that in Windows 7, when I try to rename a folder I'm not told what process currently has an open handle to that folder (and is preventing the rename)

My current solution is to open SysInternals ProcessExplorer and do a search for that Handle via the folder anme (which is far to many steps and slow).

Now I know that this can be done in C# (via Com Interop) since I did it for Hackmebank (I bet nobody has found the vulnerability that that hack created :)  ).

But before I dig that code and reimplement it in O2, I was wondering if there is already a better solution out there :)
