I think thats how mine got cloned years ago - I was away and the modem was turned off. NOW its on 24/7 so I have remote access to my servers if I need it, or theres a power cut :D BUT even then its still going, as its plugged into the UPS - till the battery runs down anyway :o wainuitech (129)

Before spam got so bad I used to do a similar thing with spam.
