I recall a movie plot where the hacker/cracker/whatever installed a trojan program via a computer game an administrator was playing, which was just as believable at the time as it is now (unlike some of the hacking movies). I can't remember the exact name, I think it started with s (but not "sneakers"). However, these days servers ship with such poor graphics card that you can't even play tuxracer on them. ;-) - John Airey, BSc (Jt Hons), CNA, RHCE Internet systems support officer, ITCSD, Royal National Institute of the Blind, Bakewell Road, Peterborough PE2 6XU, Tel.: +44 (0) 1733 375299 Fax: +44 (0) 1733 370848 John.Airey () rnib org uk If we could learn one thing from September 11th 2001, it would be the utter absurdity of moral relativism.
