    Please be careful!

    Ok. . . . .Ok. . . . this is the last one I will bring back up. But its worth it. Any of you other Senior Members remember FreeAgent? This one caused a lot of problems. Almost got lawyers involved. JP cooled the situation down thank God. Here is the thread. Its long. . but worth the read. Enjoy.

    ps: Like I said in that thread. . . . if someone tells you they want you to "test" their system. . or any kind of **** like that. . . . always check it out first. It will save your ass.

    Roguespy I sure remember this, together we took the fool down.
    Later I helped BreakFree to fix some security problems. They even asked to make telephone contact.

    you thought for a moment I took credits for your work? I wasn't. It was pure coincidence, at 5:56 you posted your email respons. At 6:27 I posted the reply I got from the real BreakFree management in a new thread http://www.antionline.com/showthread...hreadid=170473 My idea was making a new one to alert everyone. At 6:30 I checked the original thread and saw your respons and replied to that one. So we can say that we did the same without knowing and therefor a double proof was delivered. I mailed them right away after pm'ing with FreeAgent and before doing serious things on their servers, it would be foolish to test without written permission.
    It's a good reminder to the people here.

    ARG! Our stinking filter is blocking out the last page due to "Hate" but whatever, I shall read it once I get home tonight...wow, I can't believe that happened, after reading his posts, he seemed to have all the answers, I wouldv'e been majorly fooled, you guys VictorKaum and RougeSpy seemed to keep your disbelief the whole time. . . scary stuff.

    I came upon AO via a list of web sites recommended by the lecturer on network security at university. "Let's check it out, no doubt just another techie site like lot's of others". No way, it is now my No1 site. There is no computer magazine could compare , there is vast wealth of knowledge within this site, it is interesting, informative, educational and pure entertainment, after checking out the history of this and the other post by RogueSpy "Warning to Skidiots"
    Keep up the good work

    Thanks for the post RogueSpy. That was a very interesting read. I am glad to hear every thing got resolved without the courts. Great Post!
