YOU ARE ABOUT TO DETONATE A MAGNITUDE 9 BOMB.
I CAN SEE WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO DO.
STOP IT NOW.
IT'S RAMADAN.
HOLY PEOPLE DON'T KILL OTHER PEOPLE.
ONLY EVIL PEOPLE KILL OTHER PEOPLE.

THEY CAN SEE YOUR HARD DISKS VIA YOUR
COMPUTERS POWER SUPPLY (AC BROADBAND).
THEY CAN U/L AND D/L FILES.

Oorang, that is a stunning find, this as an emerging technology that most people don't know about yet. The FCC recently approved the Power Co's to go ahead with scaling this technology up for public use. The devices exist to do this and have been to tested at some level, interesting.

I will be more careful over at google groups while I'm there.

I need a powerline firewall!
