For a second I got really scared of your evil intentions, of course you
should find yourself a better name for a business or whatever you call
it.

Ok, Mr. 'registrar wizard'... Lets make it clear: this was the name of an old (97/2000) website about end-user/soho security, a popularity contest winner in Brazil (Microsoft was in the second place, Xerox in the third and yes, I'm proud of it). It shows me the, at least, the 'word of the mouth' campaign has worked. ;) This kind of 'popularity' helps to reach the end-user. The newspapers uses the term "hacker" all the time. After bring his attention, we start to teach the right concepts. Totally filantropic...

This website has gone, the domain (used in this mail addr to subscribe lists) points to my hobby, a forum about security. I'm yet trying to teach good manners to the kids. And it's a hard job...

I'm professionally working on a "policy enforcement" project. One of its features is to monitoring IM traffic. So, don't worry about my "evil intentions". I don't need to steal secrets from my girlfriend ICQ... :)
