That's great - they won't be getting any customers via e-mail, will they? I have read in news.admin or whaever it's called that their internet link has been yanked as a result of this spam. There is some justice. Obhack: Right now my PC is going through some major changes, with a new ASUS SP3G motherboard on the way to make FreeBSD run nicely (it has a built-in SCSI (NCR 53C810) controller). After selling the old board I have been running an old 286 with one floppy - it's enough to load telix, but not much else. The noise from the fan really started to bother me, so I dismantled it. After a good clean it was still a little noisy, so I grabbed a scalpel and did some sculpting - removing all of the rough edges and moulding imperfections has made a huge difference. -- Adam Eberbach, Computer Science graduate, RMIT. adam@arcadia.cs.rmit.edu.au
