was the old "Kids in the Hall" sketch: "The Pit of Ultimate Darkness".
Sir Simon Mulligan and Manservant Hecubus would do such a thing, I tell you!
Evil! Evil! Evil-evil-evil-evil!

Subject: Re: How to be evil?
I've really got to ask the brand of crack your smoking here. This is the
silliest thing I've heard in a long while. Any CF pro would find the problem
within about 5 minutes. This is not a common error (nor is access 2k a
common used DB) so after the ODBC, the security is the second or third thing
to look at.
And that's all besides the fact that no one used the internal server for
'real' work. It's not for public use and not representitive of a true
production environment.
Finally, if a client wanted to be evil, jumping through such a childish hoop
to not pay would not only fail but make the client look like a total fool.
Bottom line is that I see no sense in your original post.
