Seeing as you mentioned the important bit in the last sentence, I'll say the mantra: Just because you don't think there's anything worth losing on your box, doesn't mean that someone else doesn't think your box is worth taking over so that they can do what they want (which could be anything). -- (Currently running FC4, in case that's important to the thread) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
