Dragon, remember, you do not have to outrun the Dragon......you just have to outrun the halfling.

Well now...I guess we can all go back to downloading music again without fear of lawsuits. :grin:

Not that I do that sort of thing... ;)

I still DL stuff, just not as much as before, and I don't touch Kazaa with a ten foot pole. It was sucking it up last time I used it anyway...my files got dropped alla time or just took days and days to finish.

My Kazaa Lite K++ still seems to connect okay. It's good to see some real justice for a change anyway. I'd loved to have seen the looks on their faces :evil:
