Hmmm... I'm a bit dubious about the site you linked to Sybian.com, although that would give a whole new meaning to an embedded operating system. I think (am hoping) you must have been meaning Symbian.com. Of course sybian they might have helped developed the vibrate features...
IBM has countersued SCO, arguing that it no longer has the right to distribute GPL software. SCO made its position on the GPL perfectly clear in a filing last week: it doesn't think the GPL is enforceable, so it's going to carry on violating it.
The offer is only open to SCO's existing customers, and details are here. (R)
A brief look at the link they provide shows that indeed SCO are saying that we can get RPMS & SRPMS only with a password, and if we are a SCO customer. (and not from their ftp site).
I'm sure someones said it already, but how are they supposed to get the cockroach back?
Do they send the cockroach with its yeasty sensors off in search of WMD, and then sit outside waiting for it to come back. Are cockroaches trainable or something. Am I missing something here?

Gator may no longer exist, but a quick search on the Claria website reveals that GAIN, the company which actually distributes their loverly applications still exists.
Now I might be fooled into thinking that Claria wasn't spyware, but I thought that the name GAIN was still attached to it pretty closely. It makes me wonder if they will be rebranding this company too...
I've already posted about this on this article, but it seemed relevant here...
The article even infers (to me anyway) that it should be used in a department or organisation and not on the net, and mentions the ethics of such a procedure.
This script, given strictly as an example, can be improved upon by using evolved programming languages such as VBS. A longer example [ref 13] has been tested on a research network, cleaning our infected hosts in a few minutes.
Some SysAdmins were recently polled to determine if it is ethical to take active defense measures in such a targeted, counter offensive way, within a network their organizations owns. The results can be seen here [ref 14, page 29 & 32] (76 respondents).
In fact the article even infers that it should be used in a department or organisation and not on the net, and mentions the ethics of such a procedure.

I've been ready since Y2K with guns, ammo, food and water stored in my basement. They laughed at me then, but who's laughing now...
