Hi!
Ohhh what a smart thing...It is SO HARD for a cracker to compile his
hacking/cracking tool on other machine and move it to this
one...Expecially on x86 architecture that is so uncommon...
I have (almost) never saw a computer without c compiler on it...This is
like having a screw-driver in a trunk of a car and saying, it will help
a burglar to brake in...He can bring his own with him....
Bye, Alen
