anyway, if you compile this and run it in background, it will all die pretty 
fast. (to make it even harder, make your own signal handlers!(okay, SIGKILL 
will still work, but it will be harder to kill :))

so ctrl-c is just a SIGINT... you can make the program ignore that signal, i 
don't want to start doing that in asm (because its just a poc) but just 
change the pointer to the signal handler to rewrite the pointer to a return 
statement or something... i think SIGKILL is the only signal you can't 
mask/adapt, unless you're root (where you can, with some strange actions) get 
this to run in an uninterruptible state and so on... blabla, yadda yadda, off 
topic and totally irrelevant. you want to talk about it some more... not on 
this list, but in private :)
