About seven years ago while I was dating my ex (whom left me for my other ex and did not include me in the fun)
I made a similar program that worked as an AIM proxy- it would pass all messages except those that contained regex matched data.
So whenever my ex tried to send a message like "Are you coming over?" to my then current girlfriend in an attempt to work her lesbian magic, the proxy would just drop the packet.
I never actually used it on them, but I thought the proof of concept was funny enough. I showed it to my (now) ex, who wasn't very impressed;D
I have a Vertex as well but I spent the extra time to convert my Gentoo install into a read-only drive that hosts everything except/var and/home,/etc and/tmp are located on ramdisks and/etc is copied up from another directory at boot.
So, I can emerge sync without remounting rw but I can't emerge anything else unless I remount rw.
So, I pretty much have free reign on when it gets written to and when it doesn't
I also used nilfs2 as it's filesystem, screwed up it's entry in/etc/fstab so the garbage collector never runs, and left a bunch of unallocated space at the end of the drive for wear leveling.
Not a single problem yet.
I was poking through the Luxuriosity site, and in their support section, on this page http://www.luxuriousity.com/supportinstall.htm
If you scroll down about a quarter of the way, you'll see a spot where they forgot to search and replace "OpenOffice.org" with Luxuriousity, as seen below.
If you still encounter problems, you may want to try launching OpenOffice.org manually.
With your X server running, open a Terminal and execute the following four commands:
setenv DISPLAY localhost:0
setenv DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH/Applications/OpenOffice.org1.1.2/program:/Applica tions/OpenOffice.org1.1.2/program/filter
cd/Applications/OpenOffice.org1.1.2/program
sh soffice

Well said sir, I especially liked the first paragraph
