This USED to work, but after a few 1,000 overnight credit repair companies starting telling people this, for rather large sums of money, the credit reporting companies caught on very quickly. Remember, they are in money to report BAD credit. That is their stock in trade, and they won't give it up that easily. >(I believe that counts as my ObHack for the day.) (I belive you are wrong.) ObHack: Setting up the terminals that I was assigned to help people with to display a rather silly message saying that the computer was mad at the user, and having a rather clueless freshman break down and cry, "But I have got to do my homework!!!" when I told him, "It's obvious, the computer just doesn't like you." P.S. Hmmmm, good thing I decided to check before I sent this.... We have had a local problem that causes old commands to be sent back into the system, and it caused my userid and password to be added to thiis message. Anyone have any idea what could be causing this? We are running the BSD Internet package. And this is getting to be a pain. They appear to be something like the shell history, but they include logons, passwords and all. Any help will be greatly appreciated. -- +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Tommy Usher No Frills Software | Lubarsky's Law of Cybernetic Entomology: | | hacker@ns.secis.com | There's always one more bug. | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
