sue you ? for what ? for finding bugs in their code that they should have done themselves ? they should be grateful to 
you and be paying you for your time and talents because you helped them to protect thier coustomers from this bug that 
you discovred 


- hey got nothing against Trillian, is a very good program and use the freeware version plenty of times. and these 
statements were just about the software industry in general and the attitude of the corporations towards the bug 
finders with a debugger like softice ;)
