To reformat you need to backup - and if you have more data to backup than some puny CDRs? and you can't get on the network to backup onto your friend's gigantic file server that he has kindly carved out a nice chunk for you for a week? and I have a laptop so it's not exactly a good idea to be pulling drives out?
Grab a knoppix (or similiar) disk and upload that why. Reboot. Install. Retrieve.
So far the "homeland security" dept. is just that. It's a department. It relies on other agencies (CIA and FBI) to protect the USA against terrorism. The problem is that departments of *any* sort hate working together and because Homeland security has nothing to bargain with except for it's name nothing will happen. Besides the FBI and CIA want to redeem themselves after 9/11.
The cybersecurity part is already handled by the FBI and has been for years. The only danger I can see is if the Homeland Security dept. got control of things like Carnivore. and linked it to 'terroist' db's etc.
Seen this before, Microsoft is just doing what they do in court with their software now, (do it so slowly that everyone gets f**ked off and eventually leaves it(apple))
