83. Actually they don't... This type of software is a security risk in an enterprise environment. Most Enterprise IT groups would find this behavior unacceptable. More and more shops are moving toward a managed desktop solution (locking down what apps can/can not run on them). I work in the enterprise desktop management industry. The people having 100+ CPUs at their disposal are probably doing so either because
- they manage those desktops,
- they are doing so without the approval on the owners,
- they have gotten everyone they know to run the client with their account information, OR
- they reverse-engineered the network traffic and are sending false results back.

No. I admitted earlier that I work for Halliburton. So now I guess, I gotta tell ya, that I run the IT division for Halliburton. I've even got Mr. Cheney's PC folding for the FR team.
hmmm... now that's an interesting possibility. If I could figure out which ISP they use, put a honeypot on that subnet, it wouldn't be hard to sidetrack the packets headed for stanford, send them back an ack, edit the headers, to put in 36120 and a username, instead of theirs...
Let me put my 15 year old to work. He needs a new project to work on.. Lets call this one DU Black Hole...
