    extreme101, You’d be best with the youtube vid or if you wanna download ya might aswell just wait a while for the xvid to download.

  4. Bercik on November 1st, 2006 3:16 pm

  8. Rob on November 1st, 2006 4:26 pm

    is there a quality difference between the xvid and the wmv?

  9. ET on November 1st, 2006 4:36 pm

    Figures you would release when i am at work! Good to see the early release to make up for the one day late last time, so know you are +3 days. (^_^)

  10. Optimus on November 1st, 2006 4:44 pm

    Great. I was planning a Hak.5 release party on the 5th and now you’ve ruined it. What am I going to do with 5 bigass pinatas?

    Thanks a lot.

  11. Bercik on November 1st, 2006 4:59 pm

    So, maybe ep 5 will be released tommorow ;] ?

    “is there a quality difference between the xvid and the wmv?”

    Yes, there is a HUGE difference.

    thanks a bunch!

  14. JJ the Jetplane on November 1st, 2006 10:50 pm

    oh and by the way i feel sorry for you guys with with slow connections. took me less than 3 minutes at 1.5 mbs :P

  15. Rob on November 2nd, 2006 12:37 am

    ok, my advise if you have a high speed connection dont bother with the WMV it looks terrible.

  16. Ades on November 2nd, 2006 9:24 am

    Is it just me or is the speed from the U.S being really slow nowdays, everything from PhotoshopTV to Hak5.

    Currently have a downloadspeed of 10-15 KB/sec on current episode. Got a 2MBit ISP.

  17. Ades on November 2nd, 2006 9:24 am

    Sorry, 2MB ofcourse.

  18. Dude on November 2nd, 2006 12:06 pm

    The mouse hack is great, I am going to do one like it this weekend. Thanks for the great ideas!

  19. Softdel on November 2nd, 2006 2:08 pm

    Hey, guys. I’m just downloading this EP now!

    Just to remind you, you havn’t updated the PSP feed :P

  20. lightman on November 3rd, 2006 9:46 am

    Xvid all the way, wmv looks like s#it, download speed here is about 200k/s with my 5M connection here in argentina. too bad that there are so many places with shitty downloads (even here, 5M is the highest you can buy if you didn’t live near downtown :( )

  21. lordfu on November 3rd, 2006 5:51 pm

    interesting show guys, keep it up.

  22. The Hermit on November 4th, 2006 2:54 pm

    Just Recently Discovered this after watching bsod gotta admit this is a lot better great show cant wait for the next

  23. jfravel on November 5th, 2006 8:40 pm

    a correction to the RSI segment; it’s tenosynovitis (sounds like “teeno”) rather than tendosynovitis.

  24. xen ix on November 6th, 2006 3:01 pm

    Downloading now, looking forward seeing the Q segment. I’ve used it before.

    Why don’y you use torrents anymore?

  25. Sam on November 6th, 2006 9:05 pm

    Is the xVid link down… I can’t get it to download anything?

  26. Sam on November 6th, 2006 9:06 pm

    Seems to be back up… maybe it was a 10 minute “hickup” :)

  27. Sidepocket on November 7th, 2006 1:58 am

    Woot, love the Nintendo DS Mod Chip segment. Shows that I can have a DS with some degree of PSP like haxs. :D

    OK. I saw the show a few weeks ago but didn’t have a chance to comment. The show was OK there were a few aspects i was like …OK didn’t expect this on Hak.5 but it was all good. i just have one question for you, what ever happened to the network security that i was learning so much from. It feels like you’ve now found something easier to do and your just sticking to it… ever since the beginning of the season i have found that the segments are getting boring.

    I really hope that you guys on the coming up show do something that will really keep me watching.

    Try this code
    “PROMO11/06″

  31. oiwjefoij on November 21st, 2008 11:49 am

    Uh, this is showing some prom queen video instead of the hak 5 video

  32. Darren on November 22nd, 2008 1:15 pm

    Fixed. Sorry about that.

Got something to say?
