Notice that once we suggested that the person asking how to change an IP
address in VB might be writing a rogue program such as a spybot, there have
been no more posts about it.

Did we just rat out someone?

Not necessarily. It could have been a legit reason, but a reasonable person
would probably just figure he's not going to get help with it. At least
here.

Do we care?

David, I do care
Mike, That would be my position too, but changing MAC is even worse...
Like the DECNet Irons do... AA-00-04-00-0A-14 (5.10) )and then
another one comes along with the same... ;)
Kevin, for a moment U did ;) (wrote that response)

The line is thin, but I think what I've seen those scriptkiddys dont
get help here, they get it from search engines... But if for a
"whatever" Q then the application can be harmful.

A boy from Norway wanted to listen to his CD:s on a Linux PC, it didnt
work so he had to fix it (go around the CSS or whatever) and published
that, is that wrong too?

As I said, a thin line between jail and heaven.

Or "Hack or Crack".

I always get a kick out of 'hackers' getting violent at being called
"crackers", while "crackers" consider themselves simple "hackers".
