the 5 digit error may occur then if it interpreted 01978 as octal, though presumably he tried 1978 first!

I have an evaluation license for a Text-to-Speech system. It's time unlimited, but it will inject reminders to buy a full license into the output stream every few minutes.

When I use it to convert news articles to audio files for my portable player, this sometimes leads to output like this:

"At the NATO summit press conference, the Secretary of Defense said: You have no license for this voice. Please purchase a license for this voice at www.magnivoice.com."

which sounds quite authoritative. Now would you please excuse me while I purchase a TTS license before the DoD sends some Green Berets after me...

Had managed an online gambling site a while ago.
They did a lot of checking with JavaScript and so on. With octal numbers (leading 0) different values could be send to JS and to the backend since they differ in interpretation so it was possible to bypass the silly JS stuff easily.

But okay, it was even possible to delete the customer database with the registration form if you know a bit about sql-injection...

LOL

I'm sure you like to think a lot of things. But I think I get credit for starting that, with MY provocative comment from yesterday. ;-)

I've seen that remote desktop error.
Makes no sense at all, but seems to appear when you have a bad connection and certain combinations of options selected in the RDP client.

Considering it comes from the remote computer, it truly is quite a WTF.

And for the ladies reading this?! anyone got a picture of Josh Holloway for me? Oh hang on, i'll look at my desktop! (and stick to reading TDWTF for the daily fails - it's not a source of pr0n!)

I'm still reeling from one of our support personnel phoning in from a customer site wondering why something wasn't working. Well if you will set the location to documents and settings instead of program files...!

Well, back on topic. I think all three of these dialogs would be much improved by Mr Mackey.

In C, all numeric literals that begin with a 0 are considered to be octal

In html, everything you put in a color, is a hexadecimal:

Firefox evaluates "010" as 8 but "01987" as 1987 with a warning that it's not a valid Octal constant.
