      Call it whatever, just find a patch for it... ;-)  It bogged my system down   
      bad!  He must have used all his resources to target my machine.... Who   
      knows, he might have got several of his friends together to all target    
      my computer....  Of course, either way, since I'm providing the upload   
      end and he'd be attempting the download end, naturally my end would be   
      the slowest.... Either way, someone feel free to find a solution....   
      I'm all for hackers experimenting, but when they do something for malicious   
      purposes they need to be stopped!
