Not the take over of the PC, but the weak coffee. Coffee *drool*:crying :drool sarel |

| 682006 | 2008-06-25 04:08:00 | Did he check that the security holes weren't just the strainer leaking a bit? I find it a bit hard to feel any sympathy for someone with one of these doohickeys . :yuck: The farce is with him tonight, unless the item was due for publication a bit earlier, about 2 months and 24 days ago . |

| 682008 | 2008-06-25 08:36:00 | Ever heard of home automation? We sell a product that does lighting control / automation and can be controlled via a web server. Just imagine a hacker hacks the web server and starts controlling your house! Lights turning on and off, blinds going up and down, home theater starting at 3am, multi room sound turned on at full blast... |
