We are offering free accounts on a Debian "sarge" server, including
ssh, vnc/X11, web, email, rsync, svn, darcs, ultra-fast internet access
and many more services to come - basically we're happy to set up
whatever services you might want. We also offer some free "human"
service

There is a difference between a general tool (web-browser) and a
specific tool (the Sexy Losers script). The script is specifically
designed to download a hard-core pornographic comic.

Even if the d-d for ndiswrapper has done something wrong or not, even if
the upstream package is better (I don't know the facts, and I'm not
