    Are you sure that NetScan is not monitoring the Usenet and monitoring goes on exclusively in the msnews.microsoft.com domain ?
    If I go here: http://netscan.research.microsoft.com
    and write eg. "Linux" in the textfield "Newsgroups where name contains", then I get 509 Newsgroups like alt.os.linux.mandrake, linux.kernel and alt.os.linux.suse.
    When I ask for "ozzy", the result is alt.music.ozzy.

    OT: Ozzy lost some fans:

  10. My mail to SCO - no answer yet ;-) on SCO Targets US Government, TiVo · · Score: 1

    Hello SCO,
    I am a Linux user and have several computers running Linux (1 Server, 4
    Desktops and 1 embeded Device). I asked allready the German office of
    SCO (infod@sco.com), but got no answer, how to get a license for my
    Linux network. I don`t want to call a telephone number in the USA, so
    how can I get a license here in Germany ? Thanks for your help.

    Just another short question:
    You write at http://www.sco.com/scosource/linuxlicense.html
    "T hese customers unknowingly received illegal copies of SCO property and
    many are running critical business applications on Linux." I have
    downloaded the Linux kernel source here:
    ftp://ftp.sco.com/pub/updates/OpenLinux/3.1 .1/Serv er/current/SRPMS/

    So I don`t think that I need a license, because SCO is distributing
    themself "the illegal copies of SCO property". Do you think, that I am
    right ?

    Yours sincerly,
