You *can* crash it whenever you want, just start the debugger, and try to attach a process or two. Generally this tends to be an excellent way to guarentee Visual Studio will crash. It even gives you the option to restart automatically after it crashes, making so much more fulfilling of a crash.
So then effectively you can already get around the changes that TiVo will be making... Your own server won't have the 'flags' unless you reconfigure it that way, right?
This just makes me wonder how quickly people will start hacking TiVo's to replace the operating software with something that downloads program listings without needing to use the TiVo service. Since the TiVo can be connected to a router by installing a usb network device, I would imagine you could use this to gain access into the TiVo and replace the software. Unless this has already been done, in which case its just a matter of it becomming much more common. I would try it except i've never had a TiVo... I prefer ATI all-in-wonder cards in a desktop computer with lots of hard drive space and a DVD burner.
