My daughter got one of these on her laptop... during finals week... (ugh).
Luckily, she had already printed out and/or submitted all her term papers.
The damn thing also installed a MBR virus (at least FIXMBR reported a changed MBR).
I wound up booting from a Linux LiveCD, copying her "My Documents" and "My Pictures" onto flash. Then I *ZEROED*/dev/sda before I reinstalled XP from scratch.
I hope they lock these bastards up and throw away the key.

i.e. TALK AND....play xbox, do the dishes, watch tv, drive my car, go to the bathroom , eat, etc.
Oh great, you're one of those assholes.
There. Fixed that for ya.
Out of idle curiosity, what's the RFC for IP via Mutant Cat Carriers?
Or is it simply an adaptation of RFC 1149?

Will the Area Man accept the award for them?
But then the language would be undefined! That's UB there, modifying a value twice without an intervening sequence point!
They'll just add a surcharge to cover the fine.
Something here doesn't sound kosher to me...
I'd never hear L-Mart. My company subbed to them for a while, and I always heard it as "Lock-Mart"
Titan III was never man-rated. Gemini-Titan was a Titan II derivative.
I don't believe that Falcon9 has been man-rated yet.
