        I failed to see why you must starve the CPU of electricity. Why
        can't you just simulate that in software?
        \_ And if you can simulate that in software, why not just single-
           stepping the simulated CPU and get the key out?

6/25    some XCF or CSUA person had a web page about a project they were
        working on where I set up a machine, and you set up a machine
        somewhere, and they both passively back each other, i believe with
        an encryption key so i can't read your backups.  when your disk
        catches on fire, i just give you a copy of your data.  anyone remember
        the name of this?

6/8     CSUA code guru please help. I need to see my random number
        generator with a good seed (I just need random 18 bit
        identifiers). The usual time(NULL) is OK, except my program
        might be invoked faster than once a second, and seeding using
        time() produced the same result. I tried clock() but it seems
        to return 0. My program needs to be run in Linux/DOS (Watcom

10/27   Anybody tried the "PDF decryptor" or "PDF password delete" type of
        software?  I have a PDF form file that won't let me save.  I'm
        considering getting one of those type of software to unlock the
        file.  I really don't want to pay to try it out though.  Are there
        free open source PDF unlock programs?  Thanks.

8/22    In Windoze XP, how can I make my service start automatically when it

8/12    Anybody know of a good backup solution for PGP encrypted disks?
        The way I've been backing up is to make copies of the .pgd file
        with dates in the filename.  This method is not very scalable as my
        .pgd files are becoming gigabytes in size.  Anybody know
        of an integrated solution to backups and encrypted folders/disks?
