Cisco Source Code Up For Sale: Only $24,000

spackbace writes "The notorious, mysterious Source Code Club (SCC) has re-emerged, this time selling source code for a Cisco application in another blatant violation of copyright regulations. Believed to be an anonymous collection of hackers, the SCC this week announced in a posting on a group Web site that it is offering the complete Cisco Pix 6.3.1 source code for US$24,000. Cisco Pix is a firewall application providing security, intrusion protection, network monitoring and other services for business and carrier networks."

    I remember when SCC was just a fine purveyor of vi reference cards, and the like. To stoop to blackmail and theft, tsk, tsk.

    Oh, wait, I was thinking of SSC , not SCC, never mind.

    You know, there are only so many TLD's (Three Letter Dohickies) to go around, I suppose... wait, I've just been told it is TLA, Three Letter Acronym, and that TLD is something else, but that they too are running in short supply.

    Ok, everyone, obviously we must move to a Four Letter based society - anyone know any good four letter words to start things off?
