This has been out for nearly a week. Glad I downloaded it before the crowds started forming.

Knoppix is awesome BTW.

This translates to "Help! Where am I?!" for those whose grasp of the Finnish language is less than perfect.

"These distributed, multisource p2p apps are perfect for stuff like this."

Wanna bet 99% of the users don't bother with checksums? The words "massively parallel" and "r00t3d" aren't ones I'd like to see together in a sentence, thank you very much :-)

It was from some spammer advertising a cable descrambling device. I talked to the guy who answered the phone (I love calling 800 numbers attached to spam), and he was ruder than he should have been. Of course, by sending spam he'd already been ruder than he should have been, but I digress ...

So, if that sig is outdated, good -- I hope the whole operation dried up and shriveled away.
