lol! It's been to many DoS attacks though, not targetted ones, but worns. The sql slammer, the code red etc.... but I ran apache so those did not affect the site. I used to have to pull the plug on the server when I got home from school since it would freeze like win98 on a clunker tends to do.

I'll be away for awhile, I'm building a monster computer. Uses the fans from a ford focus to cool it down. I'm determined to cure cancer no matter what.
Or at least the hickups, LOL

Well not much change since my last post,
except for a living room fire. But other than that all is good.

Any picture of the computer Brandon?

athlon xp 2500 (1.83ghz)
It was overclocked to xp 3200 (2.2ghz) but my new room doesnt have good enough A/C, so i have to run at the advertised clock speed

my comps always on: bittorrent is a good thing, and so is helping cancer research. I used to run a rc5 cracking client years ago, but I had forgetton about distributed computing since then

sometimes I can't deal with the noise it makes, and i turn it off to sleep, my next box MUST be quiet (preferably water cooled)

Actually I have to sleep WITH the fans on, I find I sleep better that way, and it blocks off my dad's grunting and moaning before he starts to snore. I don't have enough fans to block his snoring though so I try to fall asleep before it starts.
