No more need to introduce privilege-gaining code into the overflow hack code! No more hacking passwords (just set your own:) And you can easily open a backdoor on a privileged port that doesn't get blocked by routers and firewalls (like port 22 for example). Guys! There are _very_ good reasons to _not_ run as root full-time. And there is an amazing amount of work done by devs to make realtime audio work like a blizz for non-root users. For your and my safety: MAKE USE OF THAT AND DON'T RUN AS ROOT FOR ANYTHING THEN SYSTEM-ADMINISTRATION! Have a nice day, Arnold
