MS> _______________________________________________ MS> Full-Disclosure - We believe in it. MS> Charter: http://lists.netsys.com/full-disclosure-charter.html That's it. I'm unsubscribing. It's a waste of my valuable time to delete endless amount of mails in my mailbox coming from this useless mailing list. Idea originally was good, but it turns out I have _nothing_ to gain from it at all. All I see is arguing and kiddie stuff. Bye all. I still prefer bugtraq, at least it's clean. -- Best regards, Mik-
