It makes sense, particularly in the US where you don't really have terrorists. In Ireland, we have long had to choose between hyperactive police and hyperactive bombers. The police were the chosen option. It works in that those who believe "The people have no right to do wrong, so we are not bo

Good. So if write a utility to search for *.mp3, *.mpg and *.zip files in the Freenet directory it will come up with precisely nothing? Ever? Because, if that's the case, I need have no concerns about an overhelpful colleague sharing the contents of that directory with HR ;-) _
