This will cover the source to generate different phrases but did you consider the capacity of server (which ACTUALLY authenticate whether password is right/wrong)?

You HOPE it's impossible. If I had to guess, it might have something to do with motorcycles, your dog and/or blowing up tanks for the military. :-)



You forgot to mention general guess , Girlfriend name. ;-). Other than what you have listed, I would guess something related to MAC (Apple) and cooking.

I am completely agree with you guys. I might have seen limited industry/people but majority of people I have seen were not good interviewer.

Its just generic spam -- with no company attached -- such as "having IRS issues, blah blah, text back yes tp get a call from us. blah blah".



Text back Yes. When you get a call request them not to call again.

What does the message spam about? If it's a kind of advertisement then how about you contact the customer care department of that company?

I have stopped the messaging service on my phone. But I do occasionally get marketing calls. I have saved those numbers (2 or 3 at max) with 'do not pickup'. And since I have started ignoring them, now I do not get any atall. The logic for this automated system might be ,do not call again if you do not get response. But your case is different.

Why can you not upload the file to YouTube? It would be much easier than anything you would cook up on your own.



Because my client does not want anything out of her premises.

Isn't there anything available in Java? Should I dig into Java Media Player API. Ref. http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-04-1997/jw-04-jmf.html?page=1

How can I play video file in web application? I do not want to use applet. I can not upload a video to various websites like youtube or metacafe and embed their plugin in my webapp.

I will have video file and want to play it with basic functionalities play,pause and stop.

I am in PA,USA. Buying online is an option but the shipping is costlier than book price (eBay). so I am looking for a place where I can go and buy it in person. Something similar to farmers' market.
