   Yup and being someone else had it also, it just confirms it.  Maybe there is   
   light at the end of the tunnel if Rob would consider hard-coding any login name   
   starting with a ! not be allowed period and if the same IP does it say 3 or 4   
   times, their IP gets dumped into the IP.CAN file.  Just a thought.
