humm.. the link should work if you select all (including the arabic text)..
anyways, this link should work :
http://3arabtv.com/3arabtv/series/876/7854/Ebn_ElArendoli_4_%D9%85%D8%B3%D9%84%D8%B3%D9%84_%D8%A7%D8%A8%D9%86_%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A3%D8%B1%D9%86%D8%AF%D9%84%D9%8A_-_%D8%AD%D9%84%D9%82%D8%A9.html
anyways... yeah, i know how tv always does stupid things.. i mean, have you
ever seen a 'geek' movie lately? Since when does anyone 'hack' into a
computer using a virtual 3D environment where he flies through files and the
security systems are tracking him down in that 3D environment with a 'X
seconds remaining until you're found' label on his screen... hehe, anyways..
I just watched Tron a few days ago, and yeah.. programs... fighting...oh
well:)
